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 start classes for my CNA and then I'm gonna be applyin...

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 every once and a while. I made a statement today that ...

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 states. Heh. Good luck to you. I hope you get ba...

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 graduated high school. So yeah, dunno what to tell ya...

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 wanted to get my LPN first and work as an LPN (don...

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 want to .. heh. Two questions: What does all this ...

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 what? All I know is they told me that once I finis...

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 I can register for the Nursing Program at my schoo...

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 school he told me I could replace the chemistry with ot...

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 classes you think I should take regarding certain ...

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 defend this one who posted. Why could people have...

W'oah .. wow. Heh.

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 person's mind. milly, I truly wish you the best of l...

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 make enemies with this reply .. so be it. I tend to ...

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? Does it just depend on the place you work at? Do...

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 should PM me. Or click my nick on my signature an...

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 furiously* (My flag says, "Newbie's ROCK!!" and ...

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, haha! But hey, I couldn't resist. I AM a guy ya kno...

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 this earlier. I've always had my head screwed on rea...

Oh .. my god. yet :) Wow. That's all I can say. That .. was inspirational. Like the many thanks bestowed to you already, thank you .. so much for that true story you have shared. I hope I will touch someone's life as you have with James'. Go...

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 to them about my plans. In fact, they (and I kid...

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 three months training. God, I'd feel like I was n...

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 skybirdrising was simply testing the waters to see what it w...

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 they have a history of mistakes or some sort. And ...

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 "every single thing" on. I'm going to make sure I'...
