I tried to be there! My car broke down and by the time that we got home to take my husband's car, the ceremony was already 30 min underway. It was a 58 mile trip! I never would have made it to see...
Thanks for all of the input. I did make the decision to go. My family and I got all dressed up, had a nice dinner, and started to make the 58 mile (we live far from the school and even farther from...
It has really helped reading that I am not the only one who has faced this kind of setback. Sometimes when something bad happens it often feels very lonely- like you are the only one in the world that...
Well, after getting about 10 really positive phone calls from classmates I have decided to go to pinning. I am not 100% certain about this decision, but I have to admit that I feel loved by my...
The good news is that I would not be the only one. I do know a couple of people who are not graduating (either HESI or Critical Care) who will be there. Do any of you know people who never went to...

Yes! I will be there in Jan as well! I am thrilled. The unit is really nice (in comparison with Parkland). It looks like we will be in class together! What school do you go to? I am at TWU in...
I am sorry to hear that some of you are having problems finding a job. That really sucks. My school has a career services department that helped me rewrite my resume, work on interviewing skills, and...

The interview this semester was a group interview. They brought in everyone that they wanted to interview on a Saturday and each of us was interviewed by a different manager. They called with an offer...

Well, I interviewed at both Parkland and Baylor for L&D. I was actually offered a job at Parkland this week, but I turned it down. I am in the process of interviewing at JPS and I would rather...
