    SoulShine75 replied to mydee's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Ha ha, funny. I'm about to graduate in December and still talk about it all the time. I guess it's because it becomes your life and it truly does. I have a t-shirt that says Eat, Sleep, Breathe...

    SoulShine75 replied to jamonit's topic in First Year After Licensure

  9. Has anyone ever appealed a decision letter from nursing school?

    SoulShine75 replied to poundofsugar's topic in General Nursing

  11. People in it only for the quick hire

    SoulShine75 replied to Spyral's topic in General Nursing

    If someone wanted to get a quick hire then they shoud have went into fast food, because 3 years of nursing school hell isn't worth a "quick hire".

  16. I made her cry?!?

    SoulShine75 replied to one breath at a time's topic in General Nursing

    Your concern shows that you meant no harm. I would talk to "Cindy" and address her feelings toward you and explain yourself as you have here. Some people are highly sensitive, maybe she takes things...

    SoulShine75 replied to jdplpn's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    SoulShine75 replied to donlind's topic in General Students
