I got a flash after insertion then advanced it gently... I felt the same way... Very hard stick elderly lady... I flushed it 2-3 times to be sure... I also seen a comment that smaller veins don't have backflow...

I've read somewhere, working as a cna might have an effect on the other cna's once you've been put in charge of them. That's what I read, also I'd say get a job as an LPN first and foremost. I can't help you with anything else, I'm still a student.

when do you guys find out if you're in for January?!?

I love mine!!!! If you ever want to upgrade the battery look on ebay! They also have skins etc etc.. I plan on staying on campus for days at a time since I'm not working and the laptop is my new buddy!! Have my books on there right now even!

You can get into it if you do priority reg. for those already taking classes in Spring!! if you get the right teacher you can get a good grade! I took it in the summer but i think you just want to know if its offered.
