  1. Anybody Else Overwhelmed w/this Semester Already??!!!

    flyingchange replied to anewday's topic in General Students

    We're on week 5 out of 12 for this term. Spring break is coming up in less than 2 weeks and we'll have a week off... can't wait!! All these science classes make my head spin. It's a testament to...

  2. Nursing student or student nurse?

    flyingchange replied to newbie08's topic in General Students

    Ditto on pretty much everyone. We chart as "Jane Doe, NS [school Name]". Or we will, when we get to start writing in charts instead of reading them hehe. And when I introduce myself to my pt, I say...

  3. Tattoo/employability question

    flyingchange replied to smirkingvag's topic in General Students

    In 10 years, no one will mind about tattoos and piercings anymore. I sure do miss mine

  4. demented vs dementia

    flyingchange posted a topic in General Students

    Just curious. I had my second clinical yesterday and my task was to sort-of take a health history. My pt was an elderly woman who had dementia. She's the first person that I've ever met who had...

  5. I'm Sooooo Intimidated!!!!

    flyingchange replied to NursingStudent!'s topic in General Students

    LOL once a week. I'd go nuts without

  6. Enough is enough: Get out of my wallet.

    flyingchange replied to Bortaz's topic in General Students

    If it were me, I'd probably buy the uniform, wear it with the tags in to grad, and then return it. I hear you though. My school is also pretty free-spirited with my wallet...

  7. I'm Sooooo Intimidated!!!!

    flyingchange replied to NursingStudent!'s topic in General Students

    I second the "keep up" comments. It's a huge workload and I literally have no free time except for my one "mandatory day off". But it's all so interesting that it's really a pleasure to get immersed....

  8. First Test

    flyingchange replied to scrubsfan21's topic in General Students

    It's true. The first test of every course is usually the worst! Once you get a feel for it, things usually perk up. That's why I usually try to take the same profs again (if I like them). I'm sure...

  9. Thank you, nursing school gods.

    flyingchange replied to Bortaz's topic in General Students

    Ahh I hear that!! My Micro prof this semester LOVES to teach. She even writes old-skool notes on the board (gasp) and doesn't use power point! So each thing she talks about, because she's writing it...

  10. What to do ? I think im BEYOND Screwed :(

    flyingchange replied to theneedthewant's topic in General Students

    It's true. MUCH better to have screwed up credit choices when you were 18 and owed $10k than when you were 45 and owed $100k! Yep, gonna be a lot of work to get out from under all that debt, but it's...

  11. Need Help with Smoking Issue!!!!!!!

    flyingchange replied to Nursey103's topic in General Students

    Eww. I hear you - I'm highly sensitive to smells and smoking ranks, like, #1 on my list of headache-inducing triggers. To be honest, when I read your story, the first thing that jumped to my mind is...
