You know you're in nursing school when....

when you go to the store to buy new undies and you are now picking out white full granny-panties. :chuckle

you have an entire drawer dedicated to thick comfortable white socks (preferably those made for diabetics.)

when your packages come from ebay-oh boy!!! new study guides for nursing school. no more designer jeans you won for $10.

you thank the lord for 24 hour walgreens (how else would you get your families medicines). let's not forget the 24 hour grocery store, how else would we stock up on the family sized stouffer's, campbell's soup lunch meat and bread, and the all important staple of coffee (no decaf allowed)

there's money in the bank to pay the bills, but you don't because by the time you finish your care plan for tomorrow, you've forgotten all about the bills. :banghead:

you dream about trach tubes, foley's, and you thank the lord for the fecal management system!!! yippee!! :bow:

your car looks like someone broke in and trashed it: chik-fil-a wrappers, nursing study books, care plan folders from last semester, almost every jacket you own, etc.

You know you are in nursing school when......
You are so tired that you take a shower, shampoo your hair, and stand and stare at the shampoo bottle 5 minutes later wondering if you really did wash your hair, so you do it again.

OMG! I am soooo glad to know that I am not the only one who does that. :yeah:

when everyone keeps asking you "are you an RN yet so you can take care of me?" (Usually older family members.)

....when you're studying in Starbucks with your clinical group; someone starts laughing so hard they can't breathe; four other people start yelling "AIRWAY! AIRWAY!" which makes the person who's dying of laughter laugh even harder and the five people sitting at the tables around you look at you like you're nuts...

....when your professors start noticing the nonverbal communication flying around the room from people who've been in nursing school together for so long (seems like forever) that you don't even NEED words any more!

When you start dreaming about all the things you study before a test.

When you ask for gift cards to Barnes and Noble so you can buy NCLEX study guides, and find yourself drawn to the Nursing books section everytime you go in.

Your facebook status says you are experiencing polyphagia/vertigo/polydipsia and you expect people to know what you're talking about and why it's funny!
