  1. so I found out...

    Some guy how has a known bad attitude, was talking about me after class to a class mate. This guy is really rude, he hates when people ask questions, speak in class basically he isn't good with people. He's just plain rude. Our classes are set up so ...
  2. I pay to hear the instructor... not your stories (rant. beware)

    HAHA! I just found out a guy in my class is peeved off that I(also issues with other people)ask questions or have comments. What's funny as it rarely happens, he can't stand people who have english as a second language asking for clarity either. App...
  3. what would you have done?

    My goggles fell off while in my mid term while getting a patient into a wheelchair. I figured as I couldn't safely leave the patient as i was standing her up that I should continue without the glasses as putting them back on increases the risk as my ...
  4. Having troubles...

    My school has a new state of the art lab, great except I have to pretend the sim people are real people. I seem to lack imagination or something and can't get over the fact they are fake.I also have a tough time with my intro into the room. I seem to...
  5. The oh-so-common rude classmate(s)...

    Apparently your school wanted people to sit in the same seats, this could be so the teachers recognize you if your class is big. Someone needs to get kicked out period. THere is no room at all in the nursing practice to do such immature stunts. Do we...
  6. On the way home today from my second lab day I made my self repeat :good morning mr. Tree(or anything I passed), I'm Tina and I will be your nurse today. For some reason it was hard to spit that out.
  7. What is the passing score for your school?

    60% is a pass in all classes but not math that's needs to be 80% but it's only 1 test.
  8. Dr's do the same thing. My DD was in the hospital and a group of dr's started to look over her, after the check up they remarked she looked good for an car accident victim.She was never in an accident, they got the wrong side! Never did they even ask...
  9. Apa style report!

    I have never used APA style to write a paper and really am worried. I'm just starting classes next week and they are already posting work for some classes. One class seems to be reflective learning(in your own words define this word..) but there is a...
  10. How To Deal With Bad Smells

    I heard vapor rub works, I'm going to try that soon;)
  11. I'm doing a 2 year RPN and then doing 2 years distance learning. This is my first year, my tuition per semester is $2500.
  12. I hate chemistry!

    If you are having trouble with the basics search out youtube videos, many are dumbed down for younger kids yet have helped me.
  13. Addressing a 'patient' or a 'client'?

    It depends, your a patient if you are getting care(such as in a hospital) but a client if you are getting educated like when a health nurse comes to your home to give you information on newborn care, not that the child is sick but as a prevention. I ...
  14. Apa style report!

    Thank you. This teacher had to complicate things the first day!
  15. What are your future nursing plans??

    I really want to work in the ER , of course the ICU would be ok. I really want to work on the night shift though.
  16. ATTENTION MOMMIES!

    My worst fear is something will go wrong and I need to take time off of school for my kids. I have had to before and it set me back a semester as I couldn't get my pre reqs done in time.
  17. ATTENTION MOMMIES!

    I've just turned 30 and have 5 kids, 4 boys and a girl ranging from 6-15. I am glad my kids are older know so they don't demand as much, my oldest is going to watch the kids after school but their grandparents live really close. My DH works nights so...
  18. What are you carrying all your books in?

    I bought a Heys rolling bag in a nice silver tone, picked it up for $18 while other stores sold them for $100.
  19. This is my first term so I had to choose an elective, the choices were ridiculous honestly the choices were: bugs, de vinci code,music, religions of the world, and a few other odd ball, only one even came close to being health related was nutrition....
  20. How did nursing school effect your health?

    As I'm already overweight I really hope I don't gain weight. I have started to change my eating habits, switching coke for diet( I drink a lot of it so it saves tons of cals)No fried foods and treats are not coming into my house so that late night mu...
  21. Why are my books sooo big!!

    I'm just waiting for my school to officially release the book list. They seem to be having issues this year and are behind, I did manage to get into the book program but now it's shut down again. I'm going to be getting the finalized list and orderi...
  22. What did you do to prepare for nursing school?

    I'm going to Disney, yep I'm leaving town lol. I think getting away from housework and real life stuff will help in the long run. I come home with just 2 weeks to spare which is good because the campus bookstore will have all the text books in by the...
  23. Adolescent gains 9 lb in 3 months -- normal or abnormal?

    You need to look at height, if the teen is growing taller you would expect weight gain, w/o weight gain the teen would be losing weight.
  24. Pass/fail at your school

    60% is a pass at my school.
  25. How many study hours per night (do you average?)

    I have no idea when I'm going to study for 50 hours, my schedule sucks. I don't even have a day off, 4 days that go after 3:30! I'm glad my teenage son is able to watch the other kids after school( 3 well behaved kids in grade 1,4,5 and grandparents...
