Oh my god! I just noticed there is an Iowa Forum! There's not forums for the state of "Iowa" ANYWHERE! Ha! Sorry, I'm very shocked!! I'm here in Des Moines and I'm actually getting ready to...
I would like to give my sincere apoligy to the public - both to the daily writers to the visitors. To those who are here everyday with me posting and replying as well as those who pop in and out...

See .. this is why once I finish school .. I'm ain't goin' NO WHERE. Haha! I'm stayin' put at least in this state. I'm afraid to go through the craziness of figuring out what to do because I moved...
Ouch! I dunno what to tell ya. Don't smoke pot? Heh. That's the only thing to say really. I was raised military so I wouldn't have ever dreamt of doing drugs. Then, I went in myself after I...

Good deal! I went to my school and talked with them today and they laid it all out for me, heh. Their Nursing Program is an ADN. After I complete this I can sign up to take the NCLEX-RN. Or, if I...
Okay. I seriously looked around for an answer to this on the boards BEFORE I decided to make a thread, haha! That way, there would be no caused aggrivation, heh. I might just flare a fire I don't...

Dang I love you people! Thanks for the input and setting me straight. Only other thing .. if I'm signing up on the waiting list for my school "Nursing Program" as they call it .. that'll give me...
I went to my school today and spent a couple of hours talking with the Admissions Rep and got everything situated and ready to go. I was given a list of four or five things I have to still do before...
Ah .. crap. =/ I am going to look into taking a class or two of chemistry I guess than. After having read this post I'm assuming it'd be a good idea. When I talked to the Admissions Rep at my...

Thank you for your replies. I am going to assume that any classes I can take in regards to nursing will be of aid to me, correct? So I can just pick and choose the ones to take or are there specific...

No worries. I will become a nurse .. and thank you for your best wishes in my regards. I appreciate them. I wasn't attempting to upset anyone with my reply. However, I did see the absolute need to...
Phew! I'm going to take this post and learn from it. I know one day I will be in these same shoes and feel so overwhelmed that it seems I'm wondering/thinking the same things running through this...
coffeejavule replied to skybirdrising's topic in General Nursing
I wonder if that's because he/she is too scared to come back. Either he/she is under a new nick now (no way to tell unless you tracked the IP) or this person just completely left the boards. If I...
Hey .. I was thinkin' about this earlier today and it just dawned on me as I was looking online at a bunch of scrub uniform sites. Once I get my CNA and I start working can I wear any scrubs I want?...
coffeejavule replied to Jrnalist2RNinOR's topic in General Nursing
Very funny .. ass. Hehe .. hey you should get an IM. I replied to your PM you sent me on allnurses.com. Do you have an IM? I've got Yahoo, MSN and AIM. All nicks are the same: coffeejavule You...

Haha .. funny funny stuff! Okay, yeah well .. *goes back to his lonesome corner* I guess I'll shut up now and go back to my own little corner and keep carryin' my flag high as hell! :) *waves flag...
Skirt and a blouse! :) But then again, I have a biased opinion. I'm a guy and I think girls are so cute in skirts. Oh!! Wear your hair DOWN, thx! I probably have NO business replying to this,...

Teehee .. girls = icky icky bad bad. Well, at least right NOW in my life. :) The day will come .. I assure you! Heh. And in regards to having things planned out .. blah. I wished I'd done all...

Oh and hey friend .. I have talked to several, several Nurses as well as head-hunters for Hospitals, Nursing Homes, etc .. and I haven't had one person respong negatively in any way when I have talked...

Jrnalist2RNinOR, I am scheduled to start my CNA class on December 1st. I'm taking an advanced method and I'm knocking all my classes and stuff for it in a two week period. I didn't want to take the...
coffeejavule replied to skybirdrising's topic in General Nursing
Sounds to me like skybirdrising was simply asking an honest question. Yes, the obvious is a given .. why should this person so-choose this career if he/she ended up not liking it. Perhaps...
Agreed. If you're willing to sign it in order to get the job than I guess one should be prepared to have their history checked thouroughly. I guess one should only have an issue with signing it if...
These posts (the entire thread actually) has made me realize that I cannot afford to try and just whiz by on classes that I may not care for or that perhaps I'm really good at and don't think I need...
