  1. Help for plantar fasciitis

    i agree with everyone. It's all about the inserts. Find some shoes with removable insoles. And then buy some insoles. A good running shoe store should be able to help you. I had to try on a couple of...
  2. "Performance" Anxiety?

    Just finished my 2nd year, going into my 3rd year of nursing school. Still get nervous all the time, but at least I've learned how to sleep the night before clinicals. All I can say is try to project...
  3. Graduating May 08

    I'm graduating in a year, but was recently talking to a new grad. She basically said, if you get an offer, accept it. Don't wait for something that you have your heart set on. You can either transfer...
  4. Help! placing foley in obese females

    One thing my ob teacher taught me is that it will wink when you wipe firmly with the betadine swab. I can't think of putting a foley in now without seeing her wink.
  5. To sell or to keep my AP book?

    I've used my book in nursing school. First used it when I was learning assessment. But it was really helpful for pathophysiology. You really have to know what's normal first, and I would review that...
  6. Fundraising ideas needed...

    Car Wash. We didn't make the most money from that, but It was very decent for 4 hours work. My advice is not to do presale tickets unless you know you'll have a lot of sales. Just spend some time on...
  7. California or Hawaii?

    I live in Hawaii. I'm thinking of moving to California after I graduate. The one thing about Hawaii is that everything is so expensive. Not just housing, but also how much stuff like food costs. I...
  8. Don't Rain On My Parade ....2009 Grads

    I had not thought that I can say I graduate next year. But I do go around saying I'm halfway through. I just finished semester 3 of a 6 semester BSN program. I graduate May 2009.
  9. Hello- I'm still recovering from last semester. It was not too hard, but very busy. And next semester I'll have maternal health, pediatrics and a nursing elective. Classes don't start for a week, but...
  10. Age you will/were graduated?

    30. I'm older than some of my clinical instructors. But I know I would have hated nursing school in my early twenties.
  11. It's Hard to Live with a Nurse because....

    I only just finished my 3rd semester of nursing school, but I already annoy my dad. I'm always giving him diet advice that he doesn't take. And whenever he coughs I want to know if it's his ace...
  12. I now have my own gross story, the first week back to clinicals. I dc'd a foley and the urine was so gross my instructor had me go to the dirty utility room to empty it. I thought it was just really...
  13. I'm taking Adult Health I and Psych-Mental Health Nursing. Now that I've had 2 meetings for Psych nursing I'm not as nervous about this class as I thought I would be. We're only following one patient,...
  14. Do you work night clinicals?

    This semester I have a mental health clinical from 3-9:30 at night. And then I'm back in class the next morning at 8:30 am. Not looking forward to this.
  15. I'm starting my 2nd year tomorrow. I feel like I've already almost started because I helped with the new student orientation this past week. My brain is not ready for studying yet.
