    Private Pinning Ceremony

    Cool thing is, you can do anything you want. I do understand the need to celebrate this achievement, it is a great thing. I feel it is incredibly short sided of the school not to do this for you. I...

    If I was in a better mood I would do this. I have such a headache today, had a 3+ hour surgical recovery of a extremely tough patient today. Popping ibuprofen and tequila..... Just not in the mood....
  7. Could you send me the email as well. I would like to read any suggestions to help get through GCU. I am doing well, but always listen to advice from others that have been there, done that. thank...

    Mocked by teacher in post conference.

    There is no way this is random. Do you think that some of the first classes weed out the people that don't give a hoot. I can't imagine how the other groups are doing. There is one other person...

    Being that this is a public forum and we really do not know "Who" we are arguing with, I wont continue to pound the same points over and over. When I am assigned a student nurse I will give them the...
  18. Just started my third week and already decided that I am not going to double up. I now think "what is the desire to finish 5 weeks early?" I am lucky that I will continue. Classes are taking a lot...

    Forgot to ask, is Grammarly worth the cost? I usually have my wife read my papers (elementary school teacher) and she finds most of my errors. Ran this paper through grammerly and it didn't like it...
