  1. For Fun - Things You Want to Buy Once You're a Nurse

    luquacious replied to Multicollinearity's topic in General Students

    Believe it or not I can't wait to buy "fun" scrubs. We have to wear all white with a very ugly (did I happen to tell you how ugly this thing is) apron. It will be so nice to be able to wear color and...

    luquacious replied to Ms. Nurse Assistant's topic in General Students

  4. I hate nursing

    luquacious replied to prettylittlenurse2b's topic in General Students

    I agree with alem992 you need to find what makes you happy. Nursing is a career you must be passionate about. I don't think that you can half way it or do it because it is a good paying job. I believe...

  10. Age you will/were graduated?

    luquacious replied to sweetiez's topic in General Students

    I completely agree. I was sick for a week and missed 2 days of school. Even though I find school taxing I couldn't wait to get back. Sitting around on the couch isn't for me either. BY the way I love...

  11. What do you think about people calling you "honey"?

    luquacious replied to Hellllllo Nurse's topic in General Nursing

  15. Less Applicants for Nursing Programs?

    luquacious replied to pagandeva2000's topic in General Nursing

    All I know is that I had to move from NH to Kentucky to get into a nursing program, due to not enough slots available. The reason being not enough teachers to make the classes larger and the reason...

  16. "It shouldn't be that hard to be a nurse"

    luquacious replied to SharonH, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Hi this is my first post and I must say I was very prompted to write. I too am a new nursing student and I am very upset with how my school has handled the acceptance of students. The requirements are...
