    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hi girls, I'm sorry that I've been missing in action these past few weeks. I have been doing a lot of research for my sister, going to doctor's appointments with her, chemo class, etc, etc. It's...

    Thank you both. Nikki-She is 48. You would never know that she has cancer from the outside. She's beautiful, vibrant, full of life...just a wonderful, sweet human being. I don't care what we have...

    Hi girls, we're meeting at the corner of King St and Georgia Ave, just down from the Arts Center, at 11:30am and then we'll walk to Tiramisu from there. We got bad news today about my sister's...

    Hey girls, Thanks for keeping me and my family in your thoughts. My sister goes for her CT scan tomorrow and meets with the surgeon on Monday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed that everything goes...

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    That's fine with me. And, thank you for your concern. My sister just found out yesterday that she has colon cancer and we think my dad is starting to show the first signs of dementia. Alzheimer's...

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Hey ladies. I'm sorry that I haven't been more active on here. A lot of family health issues have been popping up, unfortunately. I'd like to suggest forming a support group, of sorts, for the four...

    I was the same way in high school, but ever since college, I have to sit in the front row.

  9. Montgomery College, Fall 2011, 1st semester students

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I think that's the plan. Everyone seemed to agree on Tiramisu. We could meet at the corner of King St and Georgia Ave, near where the Arts Center and parking garage are located, then head down King...

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'm right there with all of you...excited, nervous, anxious, you name it. I haven't popped on any other threads recently. Thanks for the links, though, Kristian. Do you all want to meet maybe an...

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Oh, okay, that makes sense. That's how it was done at FDNY. Sort of. They did it by our SS# and I happened to be one of the last few people to choose, which is why I got stuck with the Bronx. I really...

    Andrea: I would prefer a 10-hr shift as well, for the reason you stated and also because I want to have as many free days as possible to work part-time. I'm hoping to just have classes on

  13. Montgomery College, Fall 2011, 1st semester students

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I thought clinicals were done by lottery and that we don't get to choose where we go. That was my understanding. I would prefer to stay close to home (ie, WHC, CNMC, G'town, or Sibley), but I'm happy...

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    Where did you see info. re: shifts for clinicals? I've seen you guys mention a handbook, but I haven't looked into yet. Is that where you're getting your info? If so, do you have the

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    No, I didn't hear anything. I think the girls just want to be prepared. Maybe we should pop on the other Montgomery boards and see what current students think about

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    I'm not in the frame of mind to review A & P on my own, right now. Perhaps after orientation. Maybe we could do a few review sessions together before classes

    Nikki: We have all of those amenities in our current apartment, that's why we don't want to settle for something less. We actually need hardwood floors because of the animals. It's very difficult...

    I was planning on parking in the West Garage on campus, near the Arts Center, and then walking to the coffee shop from there. I don't want to have to worry about parking twice.

    Monster620 replied to mom23boyz's topic in Maryland Nursing

    No luck yet. We're still looking, but we don't want to settle. We need a 1bd/1ba in the Downtown Silver Spring/Takoma Park area, with all wood floors, w/d, gas range and that accepts 3 animals....

    There's the place I posted above and there's also a coffee/food place or two in the Student Services building, where the Office of Admissions is located. I think the cafe I mentioned might be...
