    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

  6. She/He Did What?!

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'm not a nurse yet...so this will probably be off topic as it's not related to nursing but I'll go ahead and make fun of myself lol My brother was once talking to me and he randomly said/joked...

  7. She/He Did What?!

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    With all honesty, I didn't start this to humiliate or embarrass anyone. I've always been fortunate enough to have wonderful nurses take care of me. And a recent post got me wondering whether or not...

    I still have a long way to go. I'll barely be starting my science classes this upcoming Fall (which starts next week!), and I feel really overwhelmed, but I know that this is what I want to do. I may...

  12. Have you ever

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    Well, that's true, but I think with nursing, you kind of have to prove yourself (like taking TEAS, NCLEX, etc). It felt to me like this person was just sliding by.... Hopefully no one will ever say...

  13. Have you ever

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in General Nursing

    Well, I'm not a nurse yet, but I'm doing my best to complete my requirements to get into a nursing program. If you're already a nurse, how do you deal/work with someone like that?

  16. Is it wrong...

    walkingonthestars posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    So...I've been at a JC for almost three years. Not because I'm dumb or anything, but because I never really knew which career to go with. I've chose nursing and the JC I've attended has a nursing...

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh yes! This is another factor that's driving me crazy! I do receive Pell Grants. My school has this thing, I don't know if other schools do too, but after 90 attempted units we are put on lock list....

    walkingonthestars replied to walkingonthestars's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    walkingonthestars replied to jcarpio26's topic in Medical Assistant, CNA/MA
