Nursing Students NCLEX

Published

i've read lots of threads about everyone biting their nails to the quick, becoming a nervous wreck, and generally going nuts while waiting for various test result to come back.

let's think of some fun things to do to take your mind off worrying about how many ???s the computer stopped at, etc. :banghead: :no: :bugeyes:

-get reacquainted w/so and kids. :icon_hug:

-take the kids to a movie. or take yourself to a movie. see the one only you want to see. i highly recommend phantom of the opera. don't forget to buy popcorn. :melody: :yelclap:

-go shopping and buy yourself a sexy nightie and surprise your husband. :flowersfo

-knit/crochet an afghan. :yeahthat:

-file your income taxes. :barf02:

your turn!! :bowingpur :plonker2: :idea:
