    caffeineRx posted a topic in General Nursing

    ...how did you "make" it this way? As in--how did you keep everything in check? I want to know. Obviously--you are smart--that is a given. Some people do things with a lot more ease than others....

    FairyCari--you are an absolute blessing. All of you are! I am so amazed at the replies I have received and could nearly cry from the feeling that people were actually trying to help me so much. This...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks CRNAhopeful. I agree--the A & P is something that needs to be absorbed fully. Luckily it's one of my favorite classes. Still overwhelming amounts of information--but I am glad I have a...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks Leslie. Yes you are right. I have explained this to him and told him I don't want to keep freaking out on everyone...that it isn't right and people don't deserve it. Also, it's just not me. I...

  7. For those of you "hot shots" who didn't think the nursing program was " that hard"...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thank You so much Leslie. I feel the same way. I am just terrified of trying other kinds because I am one of those people who seems to literally get the side effects of EVERYTHING. My last dilemma is...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thank You--but I am capable of As and I want to live up to my abilities. For me, it is not enough to just "get by"..because I want to go on to advanced degree programs. But I understand your

  9. For those of you "hot shots" who didn't think the nursing program was " that hard"...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    I know, I just want to be able to go on to a BSN program perhaps one day. I don't want to just get by with a 3.0 It's highly competitive out there. My program requires an 80% average ENTIRELY to go...

  10. For those of you "hot shots" who didn't think the nursing program was " that hard"...

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Oh believe me--no social life here! I'm happy to sacrifice it, too, in place of the rewards the future shall bring! Two weeks before nursing school I deleted EVERY single social network profile I had...

  12. Nursing School: Did you turn into Jekyll & Hyde?

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    LOL this made me laugh out

  13. Nursing School: Did you turn into Jekyll & Hyde?

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    *sigh* I just don't know how you relax. I mean..I am trying deep breathing. I have always been a pretty intense person, but how does one control their natural reactions? I know it takes practice..I...

  14. Got Sleep?

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thanks you guys! Yes--I was thinking about a prescription..just worried about possible pregnancy. I know the chances are extremely slim...but still...a tad worried. Just gotta be safe I suppose! I...

  15. Got Sleep?

    caffeineRx posted a topic in General Nursing

    Because I sure don't. lol. I know this sounds SIMPLE to ask..but how do you make yourself "get" more sleep? I'm averaging 5-6.5 hours. For some people, that is enough. For me, I need at least a solid...

  16. How did you organize your week as a full-time nursing student?

    caffeineRx posted a topic in General Nursing

    People keep telling me I need just one day to myself...but I honestly don't even know how that is possible. However, if there are wives/mothers out there that can do it..AND work..I know there must be...

  17. How did you organize your week as a full-time nursing student?

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Haha...oh you guys. Thanks! I am looking into a blackberry...and I am REALLY going to try to let go of my OCD. I started crying the other day because I felt like everything was just so out of control!...

  18. How did you organize your week as a full-time nursing student?

    caffeineRx replied to caffeineRx's topic in General Nursing

    Thank You SO much everyone. The blackberry idea is GREAT. I was trying so hard to steer from one because I feel like I am more of a "write it down"/"pencil & paper" kind of girl. Although I am in...

  19. LPN or RN What should I choose?

    caffeineRx replied to Tattooedtonya24's topic in General Nursing

    I have heard this time and time again and I have to say it must be true. All of the people in my LPNprogram, who took a CNA course or WERE CNAs, seemed to have a quicker grasp of things and ease right...

  20. 100% pro-life, considering nursing school

    caffeineRx replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    Agreed. I am starting to wonder what kind of nurses we have out there after reading just a few comments that seem so opposite of everything nursing stands

  21. How hard is LPN school?

    caffeineRx replied to mya1234's topic in LPN, LVN Students

    You will have NO life lol. I definitely wouldn't say it's the "easy" way to become an RN. While it's not nuclear science, it is an INSANE amount of information being thrown at you at once. If you are...

  22. 100% pro-life, considering nursing school

    caffeineRx replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    And for the record, I am pro-life-choice-etc. But even I, do not think I would opt to participate in an elective abortion. So I understand where the OP is coming

  23. 100% pro-life, considering nursing school

    caffeineRx replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    She also "clearly" stated this as well: I am unapollogetically pro-life, and would never have anything to do with abortion whatsoever. This to me even includes post abortion care. So what's your...

  24. 100% pro-life, considering nursing school

    caffeineRx replied to Beebop25's topic in General Nursing

    I think that music/band teacher sounds like the calling for you, imo. Hon, nearly 40% of women will have had an abortion by the age of 45. I honestly would like to say, from my own personal...
