    SO EXCITING!!! CONGRATS to you!!!

  2. Does anybody else get this from family or friends.....

    moma8gma1 replied to vccorscc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    After changing diapers and cleaning up barf from/for my 8 children, I'm ready for anything. :) After you have children, that kind of stuff doesn't bother you nearly as much as you think it will....

  3. Does anybody else get this from family or friends.....

    moma8gma1 replied to vccorscc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    That's kind of upsetting to hear that your own mother discouraged you from having that big dream at 17. Good for you for going for it now! :) Good

  4. Csu sacramento fall 2010 nursing

    moma8gma1 replied to cheezn4life's topic in California Nursing

    Congrats to all of you! VERY exciting!!! :) I'm at a CC and have one more prereq to take in the Fall, but am haunted by the "C" I earned in Micro many years ago when I was young, clueless and...

  5. Feeling Discouraged today

    moma8gma1 replied to Krista318's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I agree that trying to better a "C" is the way to go. Also, can you work or volunteer in the field... or take other classes while you wait? In other words: use your waiting time wisely, and towards...

  6. Am I Too Old for Nursing School , I am 26 years old and tired

    moma8gma1 replied to Divalish918's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Girlfriend, I just turned 48 a week ago. I've spent the past 25 years being at home raising 8 children. My nurses during those births were my heroes. I'm on my way to becoming one of them to give...

  7. Does anybody else get this from family or friends.....

    moma8gma1 replied to vccorscc's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Maybe those comments mean they all see you as a "take charge" person, and they view nurses as carrying out someone else's order. Do you think that might be the

    YEAY!!! CONGRATS!!! Doing the happy dance for

  9. A&PI -- sinking fast...

    moma8gma1 posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    As we approach the end of the semester, I'm finding it harder and harder to take in all of the info from A&PI. After this, the only remaining prereq I need is A&PII. My brain just can't seem...

  10. A&PI -- sinking fast...

    moma8gma1 replied to moma8gma1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    YES, I agree!!! (And I had micro many years ago, so it is particularly difficult for me.) All of you parents who responded: thank you for the wonderful advice. :) I really appreciate it coming from...

  11. best coloring book for A&P?

    moma8gma1 replied to httamli's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I picked up a barely-used Marieb 5th edition at the used book store for a couple bucks -- I've really liked how it is also a study guide/self quiz at the same

    moma8gma1 replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yeay! Congrats on that good

  13. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    moma8gma1 replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    One comforting reality here: you don't HAVE to decide what your major is right now, since you are still in the pre-req stage. There are SO many people who end up graduating with a completely...

  14. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    moma8gma1 replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Of course all of that has nothing to do with you -- it is just so difficult, I imagine, to have two people close to you be in so much emotional pain as to think suicide is the way to alleviate it....

  15. A and P Drama

    moma8gma1 replied to Niki_lccc_Stluke's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    GREAT advice from the responders! Overstudy, really. Get with some classmates for a study group, if you can. I haven't been able to make that work for me, but some of my classmates swear by it....

    Oh, how awful! I'm so

  17. Just a rant

    moma8gma1 replied to cicatrixx15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Seriously? I was merely trying to smooth things over. I'll stop now. You're on your

  18. Just a rant

    moma8gma1 replied to cicatrixx15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Always smart to cool off before you post, if something offended you. A lesson I have learned along the way. (One of the benefits of being older -- you, hopefully, become wiser.)

  19. Feeling guilty

    moma8gma1 replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ah! Now you have it from him, that he'd like you to just keep what he gave you. Yeay! You know, our teachers aren't stupid, they meet a LOT of students, and I'm guessing after years of teaching, they...

  20. Feeling guilty

    moma8gma1 replied to crazytonurse's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Like LindseySmith's prof said: "go with it." My prof's policy/statement about a "mistake" in grading: "bank error in your favor!" ;-) I had this situation happen to me recently. I thought I'd just...

  21. A&P 1 Spring 2010

    moma8gma1 replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've found some answers at my text's website to be wrong -- my prof confirmed it when I checked with him. Check with your teacher to be sure -- you will be helping your classmates who may be learning...

  22. I registered for my first prerecs today!!

    moma8gma1 replied to reganette's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Fun to feel your excitement! May the encouraging posts on this site help when/if you get discouraged. Good luck!

    moma8gma1 replied to Rimzy's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Our class started out with @ 34 students, after the muscles exam we're now down to maybe 15. I'm feeling a little rejuvenated, but we still have 2 exams and a final to go, until we're finished at the...

  24. Just a rant

    moma8gma1 replied to cicatrixx15's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Gosh, no -- I've never had a teacher that anal. My A&PI prof is pretty reasonable about definitions. Another poster on this board says that wording definitions in her own words really has helped...

  25. I pay for these classes and these people won't shut up

    moma8gma1 replied to happy2learn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Yes, I agree with smclendon -- I think the other poster was merely trying to explain why those chatterboxes were clearly not serious about the class. It didn't come across to me that she meant...
