  7. Update! Graduated w/ job in ICU =)

    choc0late replied to choc0late's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The best advise I can give is be humble, ask questions and don't ever get cocky. Remember you're students. Teachers want to teach, and if you come across with the eye rolling "I know THAT" attitude,...

  12. Where do you put your stethoscope?

    choc0late replied to newbiepnp's topic in General Students

    I can't stand the feeling of mine around my neck. I have scrubs with cargo pockets so I keep it there. However a warning should be attached to cargo pockets as the steth's eartips tend to wrap around...

  13. What do you eat at 5am for breakfast?

    choc0late replied to sandyfeet's topic in General Students

    I use protein powder in my shakes and drink them as meal replacements and to lose weight so as long as they aren't putting you over in calories you certainly won't gain anything. I have a few...

    choc0late replied to princsheather's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I haven't noticed that. I can't see how it would though unless you had your finger in it maybe? I have my fingers on the actual metal rim when listening. What is difficult until you know what your...

    Okay not to scare anyone but I gained 50(yes 50) pounds after going back to college, even before the nursing portion. I used to workout daily and vigorously and watched what I ate and was around...

  19. Littmann Cardio III or Master Cardio???

    choc0late replied to princsheather's topic in Scrubs, Uniforms, Gear

    I debated the same thing and ended up going with the cardio 3. Firstly because of the pediatric head as I do peds this fall. Also the peds head can become a bell if need be. I just figured I'd stick...

  20. Am I smart enough? I'mscared

    choc0late replied to bubbly_nurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree with the first poster about it being more dedication than smarts. Sure you need common sense as to who 1+2=3 and such, but everything you need to learn will be told to you during lectures and...

    choc0late replied to pandorasbox's topic in General Students
