    maliat replied to kayel's topic in General Students

  2. Are there any HPU nursing students or grads from there?

    maliat replied to Sabrina_HI's topic in General Nursing

    KCC is Kapiolani Community College. There is also Kauai Community College so it can sometimes be confusing. There are no waitlists for any of the programs in Honolulu. It's all merit based and I think...

  3. ** Any Class of '09ers out there?? Post here!!!

    maliat replied to kayel's topic in General Students

    It's not that bad from Hawaii at 12 hours of travel time on a good day. I used to do this all the time when I went to college (the first time) in Vermont. I'm fine with it as long as people don't...

    maliat replied to NurseyTonyaLPN's topic in Nursing Humor

    maliat replied to kayel's topic in General Students

    Weekend's going fine. It's actually a three-day weekend for me, so I'm happy. No classes this summer, so I'm very happy. What I'm really excited about is a trip with my parents to DC at the end of...

  6. Organic and Biochemistry Course

    maliat replied to wildorchid's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I took an Organic and Biochemistry class last semester. It wasn't bad at all. The organic part requires large amounts of memorization. You'll understand why once you start. I used flashcards to...

  8. Please explain to me why people think this is weird?

    maliat replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    My Dad is allergic to alcohol too. At about 3 beers he starts to turn red, with simular symptoms. Doesn't stop him from drinking his beer. It's definitely a family thing. My paternal grandmother's...

    maliat replied to bpo93's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I just went to a job fair today and talked to some of the recruiters at some of the hospitals in my area. I was under the impression that they really meant it when they said you needed 6 months - 1...

  13. Is Waipahu a safe area?

    maliat replied to JHG's topic in General Nursing

    I don't think Waipahu is necessarily unsafe. But it is an old plantation town, so it's not as nice as the newer subdivisions in Ewa Beach and Kapolei. My impression of West Oahu is that you're not...

    maliat replied to leisa22's topic in Government, Military

    I was told growing up the reason it's pink was to help designate it as a hospital during WWII so the Japanese wouldn't bomb it. Who knows if that's true. My cool thing is that my grandpa was one of...
