  1. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm trying! I was in mega burn out mode for a while there. I'm taking A&PII with Weight Training next semester. Taking I with English and working fulltime was kind of kicking my butt! Wow, two...

  2. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi everyone! I haven't read back so I hope everyone is doing well. I have not had much time to keep up with any forums I generally read and participate in. How is everyone fairing? We have our...

  3. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Swamped is right. Our lab practical is the 18th and I've only just gotten the anterior, lateral and some of the inferior view of the skull down. I woke up reciting all the parts of the mandible and...

  4. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Glad I'm not the only one. I'm insulin resistant and meats and salads keep me healthy, unfortunately, who has time to cook!? I've gained 7 of the 25 I'd lost. Very annoying. On the upside, I'm...

  5. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    The skeletal system will be my weekend project. I printed copies of the skull labs from my Holes lab book and I'm just going to do them over and over and over. Hopefully the bookstore has a good...

  6. A&P I: Fall '05 Anatomy & Physiology Club

    Boink replied to NicInNC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    *frets* We've been out of school since last Wednesday due to Hurricane Rita. During that time, I didn't even think about A&P! We received a very late notice type email that we're still going to...

  7. RITA CRISIS- Houston traffic!

    Boink replied to General E. Speaking, RN's topic in General Nursing

    I hope everyone made it back OK. Looks like coming back was smooth sailing in most areas. It was insane and I still can't believe it was done, but 2.5 million people were evacuated and by Friday...

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Awesome, Casi. I did this for tissues. I printed out pictures (In color at work! Gotta love laser printers) and pasted them on note cards -- described the tissues on the back. I will have to do...

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks stpaulgirl! I will definately give you a shout. I am writing a narrative essay and half is due Monday. I just hope my brain can CHURN something out. Science is so much more fun. I had my...

  10. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    stpauligirl, that's very rude of people, you sound like you handle it very well though. I always walk into class expecting what you've received -- and I've been "let down" everytime. So far my...

  11. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Luckily, I have the time to study at work. That is a HUGE help. I use up at least four hours a day at work looking at the materials. I would be disappointed if our tests were set very far apart, it...

  12. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks Kayel! I'm betting you're right on number 8. I appreciate you pointing it out. I've found that once I know an answer, it's like, duh!!! And it sticks to my head. This website is such a...

  13. I am in need of tips on good studying habits

    Boink replied to sunnyday1's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I'm new to this as well. It's been 10 years since I've set foot in a classroom. What I've found that's helped the most is filling in the blanks -- over and over and over. I do the same with...

  14. ***A&P I Fall '05 Club -- Sept Q&A***

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi Casi. That does not sound insane. LOL. I have made geez, 20 copies of my fill in the blank lab sheets and I just keep doing them over and over and over and over. I know all of my body aras...

    Boink replied to kayel's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Awesome thread, Kayel. Thanks! Ok. I need help, I hope this is the right thread. If not, please feel free to move my question. Thanks. :) I am so dang lost when it comes to body direction in...

    Boink replied to NicInNC's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi guys. Wasn't there a 'neat' phrase for remembering the levels of organiztion? I thought I read about it somewhere! Subatomic Atomic Molecular Cellular Tissue Organ Organ Systems

  17. Digital Recorders for class! Help me pick one.

    Boink posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I would like to purchase a good digital recorder that I can use during my classes. I would like to be able to download the lectures to my computer and burn them on CD. I've heard that some teachers...

  18. Digital Recorders for class! Help me pick one.

    Boink replied to Boink's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Thanks for everyone's replies! I had no idea some instructors were nice enough to let you put the recorder near them! I guess I still remember high school and remembering some of the teachers more...

  19. Digital Recorders for class! Help me pick one.

    Boink replied to Boink's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Oh, that's not a bad idea! I'll have to do some research on it...

  20. Volunteering @ Hospitals / Houston area / Advice

    Boink posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi everyone, I'm currently enrolled to North Harris for the fall semester. I am interested in perusing a nursing degree. I'd like to volunteer at a large and busy hospital until school starts so I...

  21. Volunteering @ Hospitals / Houston area / Advice

    Boink replied to Boink's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi redefinition, What side of town are you on? Memorial Hermann seems to be fairly easy to get in contact with for volunteering, at least Woodlands Hospital did anyway. I followed this link:...

  22. Tonight's ER 5/12

    Boink replied to t2000JC's topic in General Nursing

    I only started watching ER after I saw the first season on Ebay for $20. The first and second season are great. It's fast paced and fun, very intense. I watched last night's episode while I was on...

  23. Moving to Houston - TX

    Boink replied to HONEYBEAR's topic in Texas Nursing

    Houston is huge. Do you have jobs here already? That will play into your decision. Avoid Interstate 10 (Katy Freeway) at all costs! It's TERRIBLE. A friend of ours moved here recently and he was...

  24. Memorizing vs. understanding

    Boink replied to nursestudentin05's topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    I could apply that to the IT field. I could memorize protocols and acronyms for a short time, but it wasn't until I understood them and was able to apply them in a real world scenario that I could...

  25. Advise on Biology Courses, please! Returning to school after 10 years!

    Boink posted a topic in Pre-Nursing Students

    Hi again everyone, Wow, I hope the admins don't start charging me, I've been quite the chatter box since I signed on. Anyway, I found out I only need a handful of classes to actually apply to the...
