Ever found your goal in life that you wanted more than anything? I received it and believed I was the most blessed person on the planet. It seems this dream has slipped through my fingers so fast, when in reality its been a little over 8 months. I ha...

Thank you Mrsladysoul83, you've encouraged me! I failed this last spring and am still experiencing the pain and guilt. My confidence is shot and I feel like I've lost my identity. Currently I am focusing on getting married! I know I won't focus on an...

Thanks for the advise everyone. I know it has been several months, but this is what it has taken me to muster the strength to even face my old words... I stuck it out in the program and I did fail two classes. It was hard. I cried. My favorite teache...

Same here! Just finished my first 3 days of nursing school... We were to read chapters 1-7 of health assessment and the first chapter of med term. Our first quiz was the second day of class and our first exam was the third day of class. Monday marks ...

Did anyone do a separate first aid course? Or was it part of your BLS course? I know first aid from a course I took a couple of years ago, plus we sort of talked about it in my CPR class. I e-mailed the coordinator about the requirement, as I recentl...

sml0432 - If the noise level ever getsto be too much, you're welcome at my place! ... When I find one, haha. Were going up the week after next, finally! vperez10 -Thanks for the date on classes starting! I believe, sml0432 said the orientation is on ...

Btw, has anyone read the nursing manual? I read most of it the other day and wondered if everyone was life support, CPR, etc. trained? It said something about that in the manual as a requirement before starting classes. Do you think they'll go over t...

Hopefully your offer will come in before the weekend is out! Haha, I can't wait to buy mine either! Wonder if we have to wait till orientation? Do to some of the area being high in crime, I am starting to look at rooms for rent and apartments until w...

Just checked: I've accepted my official offer! Perhaps the easiest $100 ever spent?

Jennifer & Nikki - FYI, didn't mean to leave y'all out on the greetings and meetings! Can't wait to meet the both of you too! Jumping in on the pre-requisite action, I will finish up the last of my classes this semester! I am currently taking Pa...

You are not alone... I've checked my e-mail 4 times today. Still nothing. But I think your right, we SHOULD have something this week. Hopefully! Haha, I too have that fear of dreams shredding and encountering an "Oops, sorry!" message. As for orienta...

Your right, its almost always better with family! I believe you, pgevedon, and I STILL haven't received our formal e-mail yet... My impatience is growing. Haha. As for housing, there are plenty of upsides to getting an apartment. Defiantly easier to ...

March 25th at 5:29pm, I was accepted into nursing school. After getting my drivers license, it was the next 'hallmark' best day of my life! I immediately sank to my knees in tears. After thanking the good Lord for answered prayers, I called my mom. S...

lol! Did you get an error message? Your messages have always gone through. Weird. From now on I'll message you on FB instead :)

Yep. Still nothing. Maybe sometime next week...

Great! I checked out a few apartments last year, there are a lot. Some over the top and some just looked infested, haha. I am only looking at houses due to the extent of time living in Lubbock, my brother's program is 4 years, plus the market is VERY...

Yes, I did! Wish it had more information about what to do next, but understand that the coordinators are probably getting bombarded by anxious students trying to find out more information. Haha! Like RedRaider2325 said, we found out several weeks ear...

You told me that didn't you? Sorry! Study brain, haha? Yes, it is always nice to talk with someone who has 'been there done that'! And thanks for sharing the information! I am planning on being in town in June when some of my family can help me house...

Wow, a hiring freeze for new nurses? There's something ya don't hear everyday, or at least not in south Texas. I have faith that our economy will stablize with a new election. Why is it that new presidents typically = new starts? Only to down turn ag...

Haha, voice of experience? Being 21, selfish and dangerous are my middle name. Although, irresponsible isn't. I arrived at my court date early... 1 month early. Smooth.

Thank you, KATRN78! Good luck to you as well.

As of Sunday I have officially been accepted into my school's nursing program and begin this fall. Not to be a downer on the funny video, as it is somewhat true, but I was pretty extinguished after watching it. The comments via YouTube in particular ...

Just an FYI, decline e-mails are going out. One of my new friends did not make it. If you are in the same boat, please remember this is not the end. Keep trying and looking for an open door. Ultimately, where you are supposed to be is where you will...

Touring is a good idea. Since I had never been there I felt like it was important to get a feel for the town, to see if it was a place I could picture myself living. Upon arriving on the industrial side of the town, thoughts of dread entered my mind....
