  5. When should I take my NCLEX?

  9. Nurses eat their young - now I understand why.

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to RN_Marie's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    To defend the veteran nurses and give hope to us new grad nurses, I would like to reiterate that there are MANY WONDERFUL veteran nurses who do NOT eat their young. These nurses are prime examples of...

  12. Do you find that you get more support from other nurses than your own friends/family?

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    :Yes, I agree. There's more people in this world who want to see you fail than succeed. There's very FEW that genuinely want to see you happy. Sad but true. There's people who also disguise themselves...

    Hellostudentnurssee posted a topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I just graduated and the LPN program and am so thrilled and happy. I don't think anyone understands the severity of nursing school unless they're also a nurse. I noticed that the majority of people...

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Love and appreciate the advice, as usual :) THANK YOU. When I first started with my pre-reqs waaaay back, I thought I wanted to be in pediatrics. I worked at the campus daycare as a "teacher" and was...

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    Aww that's so sweet! That's what I'm realizing as well. I'll have random nurses who I'll meet find out I graduate and give hugs and congratulatory remarks more than family members who know the news....

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    YES! I understand what you're saying! I think growing up with my mom being a nurse, blood/poop/pee - all that stuff never freaked me out. My mom always taught us to watch our for bodily fluids -...

  21. How was your life like after graduating from nursing school?

    Hellostudentnurssee posted a topic in First Year After Licensure

    I still can't believe I graduated. It's just an LPN (for now) and I'm definitely going to continue but those 2 years were so long, draining, and it's nice to know i'm 3 quarters away from an RN. (And...

  23. How was your life like after graduating from nursing school?

    Hellostudentnurssee replied to Hellostudentnurssee's topic in First Year After Licensure

    Thank you so much! And the job hunt begins! It's ridiculous how competitive nursing jobs are getting. I find it very annoying how the public can be so ignorant and unsympathetic to the lack of jobs...
