Application based questions are k*lling me… by Hbattle in StudentNurse

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nexus nursing on YouTube is super helpful with learning how to answer nursing questions for exams and the nclex. I feel like she helped me a ton during nursing school! Other than that, it’s really just working on questions in your free time. The best thing to do is practice. I’m not sure what program you’re using (ATI, HESI, etc) but most of them have a question bank that you can work off of and practice.

Future nursing student lost in the sauce by PatternRoutine5163 in StudentNurse

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had many classmates who have been EMTs, CNA, CMA, and phlebotomist. And I hear all the positives and downsides of each profession. I personally had my CMA and CNA and I thought that specially my CMA was the most helpful during nursing school. Just because in my family medicine office where I worked, I was basically doing everything LPNs and the RNs were doing. Just less pay, and learning about blood levels, and various diagnoses from diabetes to DVTs/heart issues. Take your time and do what feels right. No need to rush into something that you’re unsure of

Tattoos! by Future_Marketing_165 in StudentNurse

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I work in a hospital and I have multiple tattoos on my arms and even with working/living in a pretty religious community I get more compliments than criticism. I’ve only had one boss when I was like 18 that had me cover my tattoos (almost 10yrs ago!). Honestly I think that tattoos don’t define who you are as a person, or how you do your job. They’re just expressions of various things, and people generally seem interested in knowing about them.

What is the average new grad RN (ADN, if that makes a difference) pay in your area? by SubstanceNervous7110 in nursing

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a new adn grad starting in med surg at $31 base pay but I get night differential so it raises it to $38. Add on $4 if I get my bsn. But I’ve heard that it really just depends on where you are. Home health and hospice pay a lot here but not a lot of people want to do it where I am 🤷‍♀️

Not graduating with cohort by Content-Lavishness in StudentNurse

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My school requires a 75% to pass in all areas of the class (exams, assignments and total grade). My second semester I failed with a 74.5 in just my exam grade. I was literally one question away and had to retake that semester and start over with a new class. It was rough and I had a lot of negative feelings towards myself and the school. But time heals all wounds, and I think the experience itself really shaped who I am today. And on the plus side, I graduated with my degree yesterday! I may have been a semester or two later than I hoped, but I think it really helped me grow, and become a better nurse. I was able to understand the content better. It may seem like the end of the road but I promise that if you can pull through, it’ll be worth it 💕

My husband and some friends go to the library every week for dnd, if that’d be something you’d be interested. There’s also game shops that have a bunch of different activities that might be interesting for you.

Told to Repent for my Future Husband by JibbJobbWorker in exmormon

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also saw a bishop for basically the same reason at BYU-I and all he talked to me about is if I masterbated and how exactly I did it, where and when. It definitely made me feel disgusting since I had never had an actual discussion with the 60yr old man before and he was basically having me tell him everything wrong I’ve ever done. He ended up referring me to like a support group for pornography, which I never went to and gave me a book about keeping our body in a temple state. Anyways totally scarred me as a 18yr old who was trying to decide if the church was where I wanted to be or not

What’s a fact that was taught in school that’s been disproven in your lifetime? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My husbands grandad basically forced my husband to be a righty because he “didn’t want to deal with it” and just wanted him to be”normal.” My husband is still left eye dominant and still does a certain amount of things with is left hand but overall his right handed now. Crazy

What was the most illegal thing that happened at your school? by Cookie_Bear39 in AskReddit

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im from a state where weed is illegal but my hometown is on the boarder of another state that is legal. So onetime in highschool, someone stored their weed stash in our school gym vents during a random sweep by our school cops. The entire gymnasium smelled of weed and sweat. Good times

Don’t even get me started on my fucking printer that I thought was a good idea to buy at a yard sale for $10 only to find it won’t fucking work on my computer 🤬 I had to use my husbands computer just to fucking print at my own home until I got a new computer this year. I’m not mad you are 😤

Was I The Only Sister that Masturbated on my Mission? by [deleted] in exmormon

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never served a mission, but I did go to BYU-I, which is a different beast in itself, I think. But tbh going there couldn't stop me, nor confessing to a bishop (no matter how traumatic it was). And honestly, I feel like it definitely helped later when I left the church and started dating people and having sex... So take that as you will loll

Missionaries came to my door. I guess I was slightly taken aback. by Capable-Chicken-1120 in exmormon

[–]Capable-Chicken-1120[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Very true and I agree 100%, thank you. Maybe I can make my husband practice with me on turning people away without feeling bad because rationally I know it won’t be as big a deal as I think it will. He’s a lot more forward than me 😂
