  2. Dance team during nursing school?

    I think it would be doable, time-wise. There should always be time to do things you enjoy. The only problem I foresee would be the way NS seems to think they own you. If you have practice...
  3. What to do in this situation?

  4. Eh. Who's to say what's best? I have an IPad because I had an iPhone and wanted all my stuff to sync. I like it. I'd love it, but the lack of flash has proven to be a bit of an annoyance, as is...
  5. Being a Unit Secretary...

  7. I've never thought NS was harder than it should be. Yes, it's hard and graduation can not come soon enough (5 months!!!), but I've always felt like my professors were doing what they deemed necessary...

  17. Our instructors LOVE our male students. One embarrasses herself daily by how much she fawns over them. They're a great group, but sheesh - your desperation for male attention shouldn't spill over to...
  18. does anyone else dread the clinicals?

    I don't like clinicals. I don't like feeling anxious/uncomfortable, and clinical days are all of those things for me. I never know what kind of nurse I'll be paired with, what the attitude toward...
  19. Dear Cheaters

  20. I'm not really sure how to respond to this, except to say...adults listen to lectures, too. That sounds like a load of Kool-aid someone in some nursing program made and started spreading to the...
