    I hope you get into Bellevue, Justdance. Then you can consider the $200 a small payment for peace of mind right now and celebrate saving all that money by not going to SU! And bottom line, if you're...

  10. How to pass NCLEX-RN!

    Congratulations on a job well done! Thank you for taking time to share your insights and to advise those of us following behind you. I've heard many times that you just don't know how you've done and...
  11. So confusing and overwhelming

    You feel guilty because you are an honorable person and you seem to hold your employer in the same light you would a spouse... "'til Death do us part." I empathize because I am the exact same way....
  12. CNA scope of practice?

    NACs can certainly take pulse oximeter readings but only if s/he has a medical assistant endorsement to the basic NAC license. That requires taking a CEU class given by a nurse. I'm looking into work...
  13. Older Nursing Students

    Pipestone, thanks for the positive spin to being older! And no leave time for sick children, either! (This kind of discrimination against young, fertile women and mothers of young children is every...
  14. Older Nursing Students

    BendyPrissy, thank you for your supportive and insightful post. Supportive, because you see the value that older students can bring and insightful because you recognize that age discrimination is real...
  15. Awkward moment?

    I'm guessing it's a cultural difference in how men and women are taught to consider their genitals. You know all the stereotypes so I won't list 'em. Ironically, I'm thinking that might make it better...

    Oh no, just when I've tricked my mind into thinking "second week in May", it seems possible we could still get notices this week! Thanks, kare_bear for calling the office. Stephmonster, I'm ridiculous...

    Greetings, my fellow fretful applicants! (Or maybe you aren't fretful, just me.) I just got an email from Chie in response to one I sent a week or two ago. I was concerned that if I took a week...

    I hear you,
  19. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Argh! "Early May".... that could be any time the first two weeks. I was letting myself think there was a chance I just might hear this week. Crushed! Oh well, time to trick my mind again by telling it...

    Thanks, Justdance. That makes it easier to leave
  21. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    JustDance, I second Jaycam in thanking you for taking one for the team. Brave of you to call! Hubby wants to take me on a trip for my birthday and we're trying to figure out when to schedule it. I...
  22. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Brilliant idea, Jaycam. The idea of taking a MOOC class has been at the back of my mind. I wanted to take a course on writing a research paper this spring but couldn't get closer than second on the...
  23. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Thanks, ThriftyKid! That is very useful information. Also reassuring because now it feels like I have a safety net. That, and telling myself that no one gets notices before May will get me through the...
  24. Bellevue College hopefuls 2014-2015

    Seattle0212, do notices for Winter quarter go out at the same time as notices for Fall? Did we need to apply to Winter specifically or are we offered a spot in the Winter cohort if we didn't make the...
