When you are a nursing student... are you still able to find time for hobbies that you enjoy doing? If so, what do you like to do? I am a scrapbooker, and I hope that I can find time to do it when I am in school... today I just finished scrapbooking...

I have a tattoo, but it's on my back... no one would really see it.. unless I wear a tank top or a shirt with a lower neckline in the back... sorry I couldn't help!

janfrn - has stated lots of stuff!! :) I just wanted to add that the Health Sciences has both an adult and an adolescent (and child I believe) in and out patient psychiatric ward. True, the area is not the greatest... which is kind of dissapointing...
