Thank you guys! This is the first time I've ever wanted to lose weight for myself and not someone else. So, I'm really proud that I've had the heart to stick with

I'm not feeling very good either. I thought going for a run would get rid of my anxiety, but it didn't. On a positive note, I messaged on here back in February or so that I was starting my weight...

Does anyone know how long background checks are actually good for? I had to get one done when I was teaching elementary school, but I'm not sure if it's good

Hahaha! I think I've basically just started saying "Of course there isn't going to be an envelope!" It seems to help my anxiety when it comes to worrying about it and I don't get disappointed when...

Oh cool! Well that makes me feel better. I think my big fear was having a student poke at me lol. I have really deep veins. I probably would have come home looking a mess haha. All bruised up....

Ohhh that's exciting! :) I think IVs are probably the scariest, but most exciting part for me. Are you able to practice on each other or do they not allow

Hey Txmommy, I have a question for you since you are already in the program at TCC :) I was wondering if you have already been able to perform IVs or not? I thought I saw under the Nursing Skills...
When my husband first got to the United States, he was studying Engineering on an F-1 student visa. We started dating, got engaged and then married a few years later, which made the process easier...
I'm not sure if there are any special circumstances for nurses that make the green card process easier (I think there are for doctors), but I know when my husband was getting his green card, it was...

Amen lmd! Well said :) I know this may sound horrible, but I have come to realize that most places are full of many incompetent or rude people. I suppose that is why I'm never happy allowing...

I think the issue is in fact the orientation location. The building isn't done, so they aren't sure what the room numbers will be. I agree though, Ab. They could at least send the

I just don't see why they can't send one letter earlier saying "accepted" or "rejected" and then make a note on that same form stating that they will be sending info packets soon. This wait is making...

Well, because I only went to the Trinity River campus last night, my husband took me out to the Trinity River East campus this evening. You can't walk around or anything yet because it is all still...

My husband and I went to the movies yesterday and then decided to go downtown to the Trinity River campus. O-M-G! It is AMAZINGGGGGG! The buildings are gorgeous and everything is so clean. There...

When my husband called, they said something about not having all of the info yet on the new campus to include in the acceptance packet. Do they give you a bundle of info? I know the lady said May,...
