  1. what should i do?

    :redbeathe:redbeathe My heart goes out to you...... I can't offer any "real" advice b/c I'm only a student( and that's not until next week), but I can imagine posting this same thing after I graduate and get my first job. I think it's natural to feel...
  2. I really CANNOT believe it

    Congratulations:w00t: It's very encouraging everytime I read someone has MADE IT. I'm just starting my journey, but can't wait to post that I too have MADE IT. Good luck with your future as a nurse
  3. I am still in Shock!!

    Congratulations!!:dancgrp: I start my summer program next Monday(May 3rd) I'm a mixture of crazy emotions right now, but mostly excited. I also made sure I had everything in order: Childcare, a car checkup to make sure my trasportation is reliable, ...
  4. Students who freak out when they fail...

    I've worked so hard to get accepted and if I were to fail out I would have a melt down . However, I wouldn't take it out on anyone b/c it wouldn't be their fault I failed. The student who failed out could have possibly gotten into another school if ...
  5. Help?? What should I do?

    I agree with the above posts. Go to the interview b/c phone interviews are usually very frustrating and you can't give the same impression over the phone as you can in person...Good Luck :redbeathe
  6. Time of the month in light colored scrubs

    Good for you for bringing this up! This is something I have been very worried about also. We have to wear white uniforms in our clinicals and they are practically see-through . Just one tiny leak and the whole class will know my business; it's frustr...
  7. need some advises....

    Usually(or at least in my area) it doesn't matter where you take the prereqs, just as long as you have a good GPA and all the required courses. More than likely if you haven't taken your prereqs yet then the acceptance letter from your school isn't f...
  8. Got my acceptance letter - NOT excited

    I was like, "Woo Hoo, I made it, I made it! Oh, wait I actually made it?? Crap now I can't sleep in until 10 and set around all day long in my pj's anymore What was I thinking???? I have been running around like a chicken with my head cut off trying...
  9. What a great day!!!!!

    :yeah:Glad all is going well, and I hope you enjoy your break. I'm just now beginning my summer classes next week So I'm in the exact opposite position as you all, but I'm still really excited to be starting out...I'm sure I'll be eating those words...
  10. Need A Good Bag For School????

    We are required to bring our books to class So I'll be needing a good rolling backpack myself. The only problem is I can't find one around here and don't have enough time to order one online(or money for that matter)... My first class is this Monday...
  11. skirts to work

    There shouldn't be any reason why you are treated differently for wearing a skirt. Of course, everyone has their opinion on why you should or shouldn't wear them, but I think that even those who posted negatively about skirts probably wouldn't treat ...
  12. I talked to HR

    Yay!! So glad there is a happy ending to this. I was reading this post and was like, "Oh, that poor girl," and even though everyone meant well it was making me nervous for you... Good for you for standing up for something and actually getting good re...
  13. Insurance sales or Nursing?

    The only advice I can give you is to try looking at your situation in the "long-term" rather than right now. Sometimes we are often quick to do what will make things better at the "moment", but forget to look at how it will be five years from now. Is...
  14. How to stop beating myself up...

    The thing that works best for me(and calms me down) is to pretend that I'm explaining to a friend everthing that I have studied(yes, that means talking to myself ). Rather than just repeating facts over and over I try to explain it so that I know I h...
  15. Why do I want to pass NCLEX?

    Well other than the obvious( I want to pass so I can get my license and become a nurse), I want to pass b/c: I will work my butt off in school to make good grades and if I don't pass my NCLEX then all of that hard work will be for nothing. I want to ...
