  1. Pretty sure my clinical instructor HATES me.

    Crazed replied to kmartin906's topic in General Students

    It has nothing to do with entitlement but everything to do with, "I pay to learn, not to be abused." You can learn, and become a great nurse without having someone berate you at every turn. The...

  2. What's the first thing you'll buy when you're officially an RN?

    Crazed replied to mssjez's topic in General Students

    A pair of 45 dollar heels. Yes, I really am that

  3. Pretty sure my clinical instructor HATES me.

    Crazed replied to kmartin906's topic in General Students

    I always fire back. Perhaps it's just me, but I look at it this way - I am paying for this. For instance, I had an instructor criticize me because they rushed to judgement to which I responded, "I...

  4. My girlfriend is afraid that I might meet another girl in the nursing program...

    Crazed replied to ThePhilster's topic in General Students

    AHAHAHAHA! Sorry that was funny. Nursing school dynamics goes something like this, "Do you know what we're doing? Nope do you? Great, where's the clinical instructor? I am so tired. Do I smell like...

  5. Dear Pysch Nurses

    Crazed replied to Crazed's topic in Psychiatric

    I wish I had a nurse like you in '96 when I gave birth to my daughter. There is something wrong about patting a hysterical 18 year old on the shoulder as she's staring at her baby though the nursery...

  6. Dear Pysch Nurses

    Crazed replied to Crazed's topic in Psychiatric

    Already have psych, abnormal psych, life cycle psych and multicultural psych. (two of the four not required by my program) I was talking to a classmate about maternity and she was saying how much she...

  7. Whole class failed first test....now its a TAKE HOME!

    Crazed replied to Dowdy90's topic in Nursing Student Assistance

    I respectfully disagree with you. All of our questions are usually based on Maslow. There is a clear Maslow pattern in all of the NCLEX questions I've see here as well. The psych patient - from those...

  8. Dear Pysch Nurses

    Crazed replied to Crazed's topic in Psychiatric

    Which begs the question is it better to start in med/surg and then transfer to

  9. Dear Pysch Nurses

    Crazed replied to Crazed's topic in Psychiatric

    I thought long and hard before I went to nursing school about what I could and couldn't handle emotionally. It was a health care fair before I enrolled that made it apparent to me psych nursing was...

  10. do your instructors do this?

    Crazed replied to Dre2416's topic in General Students

    Our instructors show us the skill and then give us the day for guided practice. We have videos with the purchase of Potter/Perry which can be helpful, but I like to look at it this way: Do I really...

  11. Why do articles say nurses are high in demand but in reality it's not?

    Crazed replied to AllNursesisCool's topic in General Students

    Wow this entire post is so pretentious and borderline racist I don't even know where to start. Why don't you throw an IQ test in there as well? Let's say no one with an IQ of under 130 should be...

  12. Things you would love to say to your fellow nursing students!

    Crazed replied to Faeriewand's topic in General Students

    Please stop looking at me with disgust when I say that psych nursing is all I can see myself doing. Not everyone wants to do med/surg or critical care. Please don't roll your eyes if I know the...

  13. Accepted Spring 2012 suudents what are you feeling now?

    Crazed replied to keepmovingrn's topic in General Students

    Pressure. Amazing, overwhelming, pressure. There is the part of me that is still questioning if this is going to make me happy. You see in my former life as a sexy, minx like inside sales girl (think...

  14. the nursing identity

    Crazed replied to violin9's topic in General Nursing

    I think there should be a personality test given for entrance into nursing school. I'd like to see questions such as: When thinking of vomit on my shoes I feel _______. On a scale from 1 being not...

  15. Psych patients on medical floors

    Crazed replied to rn undisclosed name's topic in General Nursing

    If my lamictal dose made a bit of difference for a fractured metatarsal I'd speak up but it doesn't. The reason why this thread scares me so much is because with meds when I am perfectly even,...

  16. Psych patients on medical floors

    Crazed replied to rn undisclosed name's topic in General Nursing

    This is a scary thread. I admit I'm not a nurse yet but I've been on the other side as that "I don't like you, you dirty psych patient" and honestly - it shows. You really believe that paranoid...

  17. Tell me about your study group/study sessions

    Crazed replied to on eagles wings's topic in General Students

    My experiences with groups and school go something like this: Prof: Okay we're going to have a group project but like EVERYONE has to work and do their share. I'll grade you on the group effort and...

  18. A&P what to review before class starts

    Crazed replied to studentIVlife's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The book we used when purchased new came with an access code to a very awesome web site. I used this web site for quiz questions. On to usual things: It depends on what kind of learner you are and...

  19. we cannot have acrylic fingernails

    Crazed replied to jh56031's topic in General Students

    If my program told me, "Crazed, you have to cut off all of your hair, cut your nails, wear no make up, and sing the national anthem every day in order to pass," I'd be singing the "Rocket's red...

  20. HACC Nursing student

    Crazed replied to mnmcbm's topic in Pennsylvania Nursing

    I'm not sure why HACC has the reputation that it is impossible to get into clinicals. It really makes me wonder how bad GPA's are. If you're like the girl in my micro class who never opened a book and...

  21. Could I be the only reformed misfit in nursing school?

    Crazed replied to KatePasa's topic in General Students

    I hope that nursing isn't just for the perfect because that means I'm already 20k in debt for no reason. I started late, had my teenage years, went to four high schools in three years before I...
