  1. How do you wear your hair for work?

    ChasingRain posted a topic in General Nursing

  6. Help?? What should I do?

  8. need some advises....

    ChasingRain replied to thongvo89's topic in General Students

    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...

  12. skirts to work

    ChasingRain replied to eternalbride's topic in General Nursing

    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...

    ChasingRain replied to TwilightRNurse's topic in General Nursing

  14. Insurance sales or Nursing?

    ChasingRain replied to Lizzy88's topic in General 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...

  15. How to stop beating myself up...

    ChasingRain replied to ERsn's topic in General Students

    ChasingRain replied to rosedale4u's topic in NCLEX Exam, Programs
