Hi there - I'm rnsomeday and a second year nursing student here in Connecticut. Nursing is my 3rd career and I am hoping that I will love it. I think I will I am about to pull my hair out these days as school is so intense. I'm sure many of you can relate. I hope to keep up with this board. I need some support. Take care everyone

Hello rnsomeday! Welcome to Nursing Voices and I totally hear you! I'm a second year nursing student and it is crazy intense. Hope to see you around on here and I guess I'll talk to you later!

Name and Sex: Sandy. My husband calls me The Bean, hence TheBean. Female

Location: Metropolitan Washington, DC

Qualification/s past and present: I'm starting an accelerated BSN program in January. My first degree was a BA in Communications. EMT-B and 14 years as a vet tech. You'd be surprised at just how similar veterinary medicine is to human medicine.

Bit about you: I'm a little bit adrenaline junkie, a little bit Martha Stewart (minus the insider trading part), a little bit Dr. Doolittle, and a little bit of an insomniac - which is how I fit everything into a 24 hour day. I have two dogs, two cats, one very very patient and mellow husband

Welcome to Nursing Voices Sandy, good luck with your nursing program.

Welcome, TheBean

It's great to have another nurse from my neck of the woods posting on the board. I live just outside of the District in Maryland. I think we have a lot of things in common. I'm looking forward to reading more of your posts.

Hey all,
I'm new to the blog as well so here's a bit about me...

I'm a 30 yo woman, living in Seattle. I am in a Master's-entry program. So I'm finishing up my BSN portion now (we do it in 5 quarters, yikes), and then will start the Master's portion this Fall. It's very busy but I have great classmates, and Seattle is an awesome place to do clinicals, so that helps.

I was a Marine Ecologist before this and have BS and MS in Biology. I'm getting tired of school to be sure, but am finally excited about where my life is headed!

Age/Sex: 32 year old male
Location: New England
Degree etc: Just received my acceptance letter to the nursing program yesterday (BSN).
Previous life: 9 years as an Information Technology Specialist, Modeling agent before that and there's a culinary arts degree somewhere in there. Both of my parents were nurses, so it took me a while to come to grips with the fact that it was what I wanted to do all along.

Hi, I am Moira. Mofo is my nickname, cause I get called that sometimes, just by my friends.

I am 28 year old female who just finished my first semester of a BSN program at LaSalle University. 1 down 3 to go.

I currently work as a medical assistant in an Ob/Gyn office, but I just (today) got a job as a Clinical Associate (my hospital's version of CNA) on a Telemetry floor.
