    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in Male Nursing Students

    I managed to find a watch at Wally World that has all of the following above except it's black but that's fine. UPDATE: I know this is a tricky requirement, but does anyone know where one could find a...

  3. What are good shoes, socks, and a watch for a nursing student?

    J-Swish posted a topic in General Students

    Ideally, my shoes have to be white with no logo present at all. The same applies to the socks. So what are the comfy ones out there? Also, how about watches? I think a silver/metal one with some...

    I think I know what I'm getting for a watch and it isn't expensive either. These are all very good suggestions. UPDATE: My shoes have to be - all white, no logo, all leather, professional. All...

    J-Swish posted a topic in General Students

    I'm not getting much sleep at all so what foods and supplements exactly are nursing students taking to go through the day and to help your brain function correctly? I'm looking at caffeine and 5 hour...

  6. What are good shoes, socks, and a watch for a nursing student?

    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in General Students

    I think I'll hold off on the watch for now. For the shoe, I think I may have to find high tops because high tops noticeably give comfort to my feet and ankles. You're right JROregon, I'm going to be...

  8. Can you really become an NP in 4 years from scratch?

    J-Swish posted a topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    I met an NP earlier today and he was only 24 years old. He told me he went from an accountant to an NP in 4 years. I was completely shocked. He must've really had his game on. However, I'm...

  9. Can you really become an NP in 4 years from scratch?

    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in Nurse Practitioners, NP

    Everyone seems to have done the Accelerated BSN way. Judging from this guy, I think he started an ADN program at 20 years old, finished at 22, got into a ADN-MSN Direct Entry program and was able to...

  10. How do distance learning students deal with staying on the computer ALL day?

    J-Swish posted a topic in Online Distance Learning

    My friend sits on his computer all day, finishing a program. I'm guessing there's breaks and rules like the 20-20-20 thing. Distance learning students, how do you do it and what tips and suggestions...

  11. What are foods and supplements for energy and to help your brain function

    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in General Students

    OK, I thought I had it bad but dang...I hope you are seeing a somnologist or doing something to solve your insomnia. For Melatonin, try sublingual melatonin in liquid form. I heard it is really...

  12. What are foods and supplements for energy and to help your brain function

    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in General Students

    @ScottE - Like a somnologist right? Maybe so. I went to the doctors and all they do is prescribe sleep aids. @mommywithplenty - I may have to look into another different brand. Jamieson seems to be a...

  13. For students with insomnia, what have you found that works for you?

    J-Swish replied to J-Swish's topic in General Students

    @ Mom/Nurse2b – I’ll probably have to talk to my doctor about doing something similar…taking Ambien 5 mg about 2-3 times per week. Ambien, Lunesta, Trazadone, and all the other prescription...

  15. Of these Los Angeles schools, which one is least "ghetto"

    J-Swish replied to okiedokie123's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    It’s funny how I was researching the areas in LA and I came upon this website! After going through the posts, it just seems to me that Generation X and Y has different perspectives on what defines...
