Welcome to the world of WCCCD. Everything changes just as quickly as you learned it, just like the medical feild. an instructor once told me.... "NOthing in life comes easy, if you want it that bad, you're going to have to prove it, and fight for it" I'm not saying that it is right, but no need to get upset. I know it is frustrating. If there is anything I could help with pls feel free to PM me! 1 more YEAR LEFT!:stdnrsrck:

Does anyone else ever feel like they are in highschool agian??? He said she said. Everyone has a story, I know I do.. But I'm just here to wish everyone luck on whatever path they may take weather it is nursing or to be a weather man:weatherrain6:. No matter what it is, you need to believe in yourself and not always believe what you may hear.... :redpinkhe:nurse::icon_hug::hngon:

ICK.. I love the nursing program at WCCCD!!!!!!!!! :redbeathe:redbeathe:redbeathe:redbeathe:yeah::yeah: And one day I will be working with many others from many other schools. . . . RIGHT next to them! :rolleyes: :nurse:

YES you can get a job. Maybe you should do more research on the TYPE of accrediation you are talking about. Or call the nursing program, and they can inform you.

I agree.

hahaha western instructors scary/harder!! :bugeyes: I may be a 1st year student, but I have western instructors, and they are great. They LOVE their job, and Love to teach.FNA (for anyone who had 'em) NS is hard, no matter WHO you have.. but if you want it, you can do it!!:redbeathe:redbeathe Not to mention, there are many MANY people who WANT to see you do well. Including those on here. CANT WAIT FOR SUMMER!!! even though, I will still be in classes.. Thank god it's only Pharm!! **** FNA = FUTURE NURSES OF AMERICA!!!

Im LOVING clinical's!! I have Hani, he is new to the system but he is helpful, resourceful and funny. As for lecture, .........thats another story!! :uhoh21:

WHEW... Made it past my first quiz. not saying how Idid, because I MADE STUPID mistakes by going back and changing answers, because I thought it was a little too easy. NEVER SECOND GUESS YOURSELF!!!!:banghead: But Im not really, ok maybe a little still concerened. THanks for all of the replys, Im not going to let her scare me!! Im just going to study study study,know everytihng possible, until I explode with information about med/surg.... :redpinkhe:redpinkhe

Kidding me??? so many views, and no help?! ahhhh thats ok. :chair:

Any other WCCCD students go through med surg one with desouza? She has scared me about our upcoming quiz. She told us that not many make it out alive! I know my chapters and herstudy guide insid eand out.. any other advice needed to do study wise for her class?? thanks in advance :heartbeat:heartbeat

Sorry for the confusion, he is an "ex" he just moved out to his parents house, which is a subdivision away. The life Im talking about is, he still was able to hang out with his friends, on sundays he plays hockey and tends tdrink about every weekend, while I agree he needs to grow up, he wont. If I have to study, he wants me to do it around his schedule rather then what suits the family schedule. I understadn that I have kids and I need to care for them, but if Im studying he wants me to drop everything feed them get them ready for bed and put them down, all while he is watching football or something. To me, that is just disrespectful. But with him not living here, because Im not moving out until after the semester because I REFUSE to put myself through that during school. He can "live" his life so to say. IE his mom will doANYTHING for him, so if he has them and he wants to go out he will. This IS SOMETHING new, I havent been living like this, so I am confused. As for it sounds like I still want something with him? YES I do. I love him. He is a great dad, great BF(or was), fiance (however u spell it). Just the past month or so everything just turned, almost like he resents me for going to school. For some reason he no longer sees that I am doing this for myself, and my family as well. I know this sounds back and forth, and I know I can do it with or without him. I just really didngt know how to handle someone who was once sooo supporitve to someone who could care less..

I want to thank everyone for their words of encouragement. I needed it. This transition is going alot smoother then expected, and as though I would love to say that its best if we atick together, really at this point its not. Sorry to show everyone my dirty laundry, I just needed some others who understood. Thankfully his mother and my mother are there to help, and weirdly enough so is he. They all want to ee me finish, he just doesnt want to give up his life. I dont know how to make sense of it. Which-ever, I am going to take tihs day by day, and hopefully he will realize he loves me, more then he thinks. As for the cousinling, I tried, but no go on his end. Because really it comes down to miscommunication. . Ahh, ok back to studying... "just keep swimming, just keep swimming" -Dori from nemo, my lil 3 year old walks around singing it... its my motivational tool right now. :heartbeat

:scrying::crying2:Ok, as if first week wasnt hard enough, I am now as of well tech. today a single mother of 2, a 6 month old and a 3 year old, with an EX who is totally unsupportive all of a sudden. He "isnt ready to give up his life, for my schooling" Im kinda hoping that it goes smoothly, but honestly, I dont want to put the effort into fixing this relationship, because I want WANT WANT WANT SCHOOL. I have my mind set on school, I have come so far to let this bring me down. Any words of encouragement or advice?!

Hey I have a private through astute, and yes you can use the money on whatever u need to. I have mine for bills, because I choose not to work while in school, and it was HUGE Lifesaver. If you any other q's feel free to PM me, and I'll try to help ya out! and ocongrats on going back to school!!!

WHOOOHOOOO!!! I got mine!!! :):monkeydance::monkeydance::biere::biere:

I just called the nurses office and thats what they said. Although someone ele said not until the 14th of nov. Im just going by the nursing office!

I was told that they are sending ouut the BIG LETTERS TODAY!!! I guess time will only tell!! WHOOHOO

okokokokok... This teacher is just CRAZY! :trout:I wont put names, but a Patho teacher I have seriously. I spent over 45 hours studying for a test just to fail 2 of them. Um, and not just me, 90% of the class is gettin d's or E's. Thats just wrong. :angryfire I am not the onylone, but some of us complained at the dean's office, and other's only voiced their opnion in class to us, but never made a formal complaint, which in my :twocents:opinion is dumb because that is the only way anything will get done! So anyhow, half the class dropped today. WE HAD TO. There is no way around this, half way through the semester and all that time put into it. Im just irratated beyond belief! So, I needed to get that off of my chest. I hate "bad" teachers.

Well you are better off then I, My GPA isn't a 3.8, but I think Im still good enough. I an def. higher then the cutoff for the last 3 semesters. I keep hearing that "all those people applying for different schools" ia a rumor. I guess we'll have to wait and see... I dont know if I can wait till late november!!!!!

Anyone else kinda put in the back of their head that they applied, and now they are just WAITING!! Yea right, its floating in front of my face every day, all day. Im not going going to lie Im not slacking per say this semester, rather then not being as focused.:trout: Did I mention I was talking abut applying for the WCCCD nursing program, starting in jan of 08. AHHHHHHH Does anyone know when we might be finding out??? I have HIGGGHHH HOPES, I have HIGGHHH HOPES, high in the sky hopes!! :monkeydance::monkeydance:

I am taking AP2 and life span development for summer.. on top of that, I am scheduled to have a C-section in the middle of the semester.:chair: .. But I can do it I can do it.. my last prereqs before I can apply for the prgram!!! :monkeydance: :monkeydance:

Hi, I just finished micro with D. Meyers, the lab manual you wouldnt need, but the book I def. needed, she gives notes during class, but she also goes out of the book that you have to read at home. so sharing with someone I doubt would be a problem. She also used the CD A LOT. which you can get at the bookstore for free. the microbes in motion CD. But then again seems to me that she likes to change things up A LOT. I was in her evening class, and her day class was different. Good luck!!! :) Oh, and if you do have her, I have her email addy if u want it, I can PM it to you, she responds VEry quickly.

Good luck on that final!
