  1. Nursing Theory: Does anyone have a nursing theory paper that I can borrow? :(

    Stephalump replied to chaitealatte's topic in General Students

    You're not even offering any money?

  2. Why are Nurses so mean to each other?

    Stephalump replied to Dixon, future NP's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    Well after my extensive research (aka a glass of wine and too much time on AN), I saw absolutely nothing that seems "mean." However, I'm no longer emotionally involved in any of the topics that were...

  3. Dismissed from ADN program need advice please

    Stephalump replied to chocolatekisses's topic in General Students

    Well it seems like you gave avoiding reality a shot and it didn't work out too well, so the only thing left to do is face it and push on through. Desperation doesn't do anything for us but convince us...

  4. Why are Nurses so mean to each other?

    Stephalump replied to Dixon, future NP's topic in Patient, Colleague Relations

    That's very true and something I've been trying to practice lately. I'm very, very bad at that Lol. And now the rest of my night is going to be wasted looking through every post HM-whateverthe#is has...

  5. Are these sneakers acceptable for nursing school?

    Stephalump replied to 369XYZ's topic in General Students

    Ok, so the app only showed up until "anal gland secretion" and I opened this thread competes freaked out as to why a nursing student would have anal gland secretions on her shoes and what on earth...

  6. Losing my 1st Nursing Job and I feel helpless & hopeless

    Stephalump replied to nulife4good's topic in First Year After Licensure

    I'm so sorry you're going through all of that. I struggled with postpartum anxiety after all three of my children were born, and I know for a fact I could not have gone back to stressful job 4 months...

  7. Most difficult nursing pre req?

    Stephalump replied to kjohnson1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

  9. Let's Do this thing

    Stephalump replied to LCinTraining's topic in General Students

    I would definitely do more prereading if you can! Those first few weeks of reading seem to be more brutal than normal. I think it's because it isn't quite so in depth so they can cover so much in...

  10. Texas state history class pre-req

    Stephalump replied to cincin1's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Yeah, I don't think you're going to be able to save money that way! Like the PP said...I'm sure it never even occurred to anyone in the legislature that someone WOULDN'T want to learn about Texas!...

  11. First day of Nursing School..

    Stephalump replied to dsf43's topic in General Students

    Keyboards are super cheap. BUT I've found that, while typing is faster than writing, I simply do not retain it as well as if I write it. Typing for me is kind of like driving to your house - no...

  12. LPNs Often Fare Better Than Some Degree Earners

    Stephalump replied to TheCommuter's topic in LPN, LVN Corner

    I agree with this. My step father has been a welder for 30 years and his body is wearing out. Fortunately, he owns his own business so he was able to hire in someone to do it for him. Many good paying...

  13. No life?? Really? I need advice, please.

    Stephalump replied to acceptmealready's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I've only taken a summer session on NS so far, so I'm not overly experienced, but here's my two cents. First of all, let me make the all important disclaimer that everyone in different. Some people...

  16. First day of Nursing School..

    Stephalump replied to dsf43's topic in General Students

    Thanks! Granted, there was a flash food and I left my house to go to Walmart before school and the roads home ended up being closed. So I had to buy scrubs to wear and pens and paper to use, and gum...

    Stephalump replied to dsf43's topic in General Students

    I 'm just gonna tell you how I'm feeling.. gotta make you understand... I was thrilled on my first day of school this summer because I was on time. My alarm went off in the am instead of that...

  19. Let's Do this thing

    Stephalump replied to LCinTraining's topic in General Students

    I'm the exact opposite - I've always been a speed reader (well, at least since I learned to read) and I naturally skim and get the jist that way. Wee were assigned 30 chapters of reading before we...

  20. Background Check Blue clearance card from BON

    Stephalump replied to gelibean's topic in Texas Nursing

    I received mine in 6 days, but that was back in May before the new student rush. I've heard anything up to 6 weeks. Have you called? That little card seems like it could be easily lost in the

  21. Texas state history class pre-req

    Stephalump replied to cincin1's topic in University of Texas Arlington

    Clep? Texas has a set list of courses we all have to take to graduate. They don't care where you're from or where you're going...you have to take them. I don't recall having to take Texas history....

  23. I am reading my syllabus correctly???!!!??? Foley Cath's

    Stephalump replied to DisneyNurseGal's topic in General Students

    Hah! I would be freaking out for sure if it was required! We had to practice bed baths, feeing, oral care, and vital signs and that's about it on each other, and even the vital signs we practiced on...

    Stephalump replied to patriotprincess's topic in General Students
