I was just wondering if any of you have a second passion or job other than nursing, I want to become a nurse and eventually a CRNA but I also want to find something else to do when I am not working as a nurse, maybe a part time business, Do any of you have a part time business or a second job - passion? What do you like to do when you are not working?

My passions are my family and nursing. When I'm not at work, I'm focusing on my family.

Well, I am about to start nursing school, and am a massage therapist and Pilates instructor. When I get out of school, and (hopefully) find a job as an RN, I still want to massage and teach Pilates. While I think other interests are good for balance in one's life, I also worry about about being spread too thin.

Years ago, I took part in community theatre, both on stage and as a stage manager. I have done extensive volunteer work at times, sold cosmetics, and I read voraciously.
It's important to have other things to focus on. I keep thinking I would like to draw or paint, but never seem to make time for it.
Wish I learned to play an instrument!

I really like business and plan to start my own business in the future. I like working with underprivileged kids in the inner city and I also joined Big Brother Big Sisters of Chicago a couple of years ago.
