   Sendana replied to esunada's topic in General Students

   Seriously, who cares what she thinks? She might have an attitude problem, or be intimidated by you, or she might just not care to be friends with you. It doesn't matter either way. You're not there...

9. HELP!! I need guidance I saw someone cheating

   Sendana replied to Brie80's topic in General Students

12. Is working during Nursing School a good idea?

    Sendana replied to BtownRNHopeful12's topic in General Students

    No, it is not, but some people have no choice. The people who can actually pull of a job, family, AND nursing school at the same time deserve a lot more respect than they usually get. I go to school...
