1. Wearing skirts as a nurse

   Eclectic Swain replied to purplescrubs15's topic in Uniform/Gear

   The view that a woman should not wear pants isn't biblical. My parents had a belief that I disagreed with and they gave me an ultimatum to either practice their belief or leave. They did not expect me to leave but I calmly informed them I was taking ...

3. I made poor judgments during my university days and need some real advice.

   Eclectic Swain replied to jyoo1017's topic in Pre-Nursing

   In my school, only pre-req courses are factored and only the higher of two attempts if the first attempt at the class is a fail. For me personally, I had failed some general classes that counted as a pre-req because I simply was not driven or focused...

   It will be! I made it into a "page" instead of a "group". Bear with me as I work out kinks. PJ's internet is terrible! May have to fix it Up later.

6. LSU BSN Fall 2015

   Eclectic Swain replied to ntassin's topic in School Programs

   Hey guys! Been really busy but I finally got around to making a page. This sounds silly but we are class of 2018, correct? I would also like a couple other students to moderate the page along with me so we can keep it updated with pictures, events, a...

7. LSU BSN Fall 2015

   Eclectic Swain replied to ntassin's topic in School Programs

   Who would be down with a Facebook page for our graduating class? I saw the previous class did so and many people joined. Perhaps it would be a little easier to ask questions/get answers on a FB page rather than on here. Plus, we could invite friends ...

   Eclectic Swain replied to trinitymaster's topic in General Nursing

   "Good whiskey, bourbon, wine... As a treat a couple of times a week. Dark chocolate ice cream from this brand that is amazingly smooth. Can't resist. French bread toast with butter and Nutella." Now that's pleasure!! Cheesecake is usually wonderful

10. The FIT Nurse

    Eclectic Swain replied to NN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Some people can't take humor. And I'd love a pie for posting on a public forum; why would that be crossing a major line? On topic: how many hours of sleep do you forgo to do things you don't really need to do? (Facebook, games, Allnurses) Sleep is so...

11. The FIT Nurse

    Eclectic Swain replied to NN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Woah, can you stop being a big meanie and actually contribute to the topic that many have now moved on to discuss? Only meanies want to hear from a "Crusty Old Bat" anyway so perhaps you should see your way to reddit where people would love to hear y...

12. The FIT Nurse

    Eclectic Swain replied to NN, RN's topic in General Nursing

    Holy canoli people are sensitive. Don't be down on yourself for this; nothing you said was malicious. And for those who literally can not reach a level of health that is better than your current one through absolutely anything, you're obviously exem...

13. Working Out 6- 7 days a week

    Eclectic Swain replied to Soliloquy's topic in General Nursing

    Imagine working an 18 hour shift and having NO pain on the bottom of your feet! Now stop imagining and look down at the gut protruding over your waistline under your shirt. Squeeze it. Grab it in your hands and pull it up and down like you're Adam Sa...

    Eclectic Swain replied to dc1994's topic in General Students

    Work full time in the summer. 3 months can net around 2k easily!

15. Give an example of a difficult decision you've made

    Eclectic Swain replied to j0yegan's topic in Professionalism

    My hardest decision(s): Responding to someone in the way I want to vs. how I should for both of us to be, ultimately, happy. It's a conscious effort; people really irritate me sometimes! :3 Especially myself xD (Jk, I love me)
