  1. Need advice on my uniform fit

    I had the same problem with L and XL...I bought 2 of the large and 1 of the XL for the uncomfortable days lol....Either way, I'm not too happy with the way that brand fits either. The womens shirts sort of bunch up too. That said....wooooo I start Mo...

  4. How long is your commute to nursing school?

    About an hour and twenty, depending on traffic :) I won't know about clinicals until they get schedule, but they are all over, with the closest being about an hour away... With 3 kids at home, I look at it as much needed down time. :)
  5. How to deal with unsupportive people.

    I agree with this totally. Only your actions can show her that she is...umm...misguided in her attitude. You may also want to find a way to let her know that yes, you respect her thoughts and that you appreciate her concern, but that right now you ar...

  11. I just can't get motivated.

    I read a book once that said to envision the end before working on the beginning. That really helped me in my study habits. When I don't feel like doing something, or writing that paper, I look toward what I am working for. Goals my first semester of...

  17. Nursing...Decisions, Decisions

    I would do RN vs. LPN. I know some people VERY happy in their LPN positions, but also know quite a few who are working extra hard to get their RN and wish they would have gone straight for it. You are already working in the field, so if you know that...

  19. Getting impatient

    I am like a person crazy with impatience! I know it's not rational, because like you guys, I have a couple/few more weeks to go. But I still check the mail with a little blind hope that there will be a letter from the program :) I have the patience o...
  20. OK sorry everyone

    Admitting you may have been wrong is a very mature thing to do. I have to admit, I am ADDICTED to my phone, it is with me All the time. HOWEVER, it is on silent (NOT vibrate, silent) at all times, and I do not text, or even check my texts except for ...

  23. My Teacher Hates me!!!!

    This must be some sort of troll...BUT I have had classes with students just like this! Rude, disruptive, entitled, and just plain annoying to people who really want to learn and don't think it should just be given to us. If it, in some bizzaro way, i...

  25. Summer 2012 - Check in

    I'm going to just focus on Micro this summer. I absolutely love all things science, but I have heard this is a harder course. Being that I am insane , I wanna keep my 4.0 science GPA and this seems the smartest way to go, plus I've already done all o...
