Very funny.

I like it and it sounds about right

Very funny--and perceptive! We've all been there. And I have to say, I once actually did argue enough to get 2 points on a test! I'm so proud of that!

Very funny and oh so true. My nursing course has been delayed because of the type A infuenza virus but I'm not giving up hope. I've had this rotten flu for 4 months now and have blood in my urine. What next? The only thing I can put it down to is bad luck!

My Husband says he feels like a single man sometimes! Our mantra is 7 more months! I haven't told him I want to continue and go for my Nurse Practitioners licence! I bet he'd like the restraint "practice"! HAHAHA!

You mean its not normal everyday conversation to talk about poop or anything else that contains to urine, blood or guts? I have a tendency to forget that and just start talking, OOPS!!!
I most definitely feel like a nursing student when I watch people walk and look at their gait and posture. Or going down the road reading license plates and making up medical words ...

Demetrice, Thanks for the encouragement, I do have a lot of knowledge and experience to share and pass on. I hope in the near future to find where I belong and how to achieve my new goals. Thanks you friend Chris

That is really funny but should that mean nurses have good sense of humour?

very funny and so true especially 1,6-8

Man o man is that right on the money, I wound up supplying a coffee pot and a microwave for my class. A trick for getting caffine in your system. Blow off the water.

seahawk: There is somewhere in your area (don't know where you live) that will accept you as a volunteer. Ypu can hep people, stay in touch and not loose friemdships. Keep bugging the BON!! They tend to run extremely slow in many areas, I have found. You didn't mention your status (CNA, LPN, RN, or ??) but MS and a wheelchair is no reason to keep you from teaching! CNA instructors can be any level of RN or above and other levels have specific needs. Nurse educators are in short supply, like every other kind of nurse. How about volenteering in a school? When my daughter was in K and 1st grade, New York state had school nurses, campus could not open without a nurse in place,. I volunteered to cover her lunch 1 day/week. What a joy! She never left the campus, but got a break away from the office. So even if your license has expired, you might could look into this venue. Maybe you have thought of these alternatives, maybe not. but we're still 1 big happy family. Once a nurse, always a nurse!!

Currin says ...

I found this on the internet today: You know you are nursing student if..... 1. You open the refrigerator door and notice that the already opened milk jug has been dated and timed and has your initials on it. 2. You keep the sterile field even when you cook dinner. 3. You have used restraints...and it was not a sexual experience. 4. Your family has filed missing person reports on you during finals week. 5. You shake a person's hand and you find yourself feeling for a vein to decide which size IV catheter you would use. 6. You discuss the consistency of your patients' poop on your lunch break..and thats not weird to you. 7. Your normal friends all graduated in business or mass comm. 8. You've canceled your gym membership once you realized your Pediatrics book can double as a 10 lb weight. 9. You are determined to figure out how to administer cafeine through an IV line before finals week. 10. You know that the correct answer is not on the test and you will argue to the death for those 2 points.

If you call your mother, and have to give a play by play of how you were treated in clinical's to your mom who is an experienced nurse... :)

This is to funny,I actually did argue with my psych prof, on a final exam. It was worth 2 points, he gave me 1 point back.. LOL 

@ seahawk, have you found any sort of nursing job. We would be interested to find out.
