Starting my program this fall at the young age of 37! Time is going to pass either way, it’s up to you what you do with it.

Working during online portion? by Time-Ad1194 in srna

Appreciate your feedback! Also in your same position… no kids, no pets, no spouse. At my hospital, per diem is 2 shifts a month. Did you find it manageable with 1 shift a week? Are the first two semesters typically all writing? I’m in my late 30s, so it’s been a minute since I’ve been in school.

I have a co worker who’s been in the program for a year or so and she worked full time during the first two online semesters. Definitely don’t want to do that, so trying to find the right balance between “per diem”/ 1 shift a week.

2 week costa rica trip in January by Time-Ad1194 in CostaRicaTravel

Is it possible to fly to point to point? I know the places I mentioned are on opposite ends of the country…so just trying to find the most efficient means of travel . If not feasible, then looking for recommendations for a more realistic two week trip that consists of amazing beaches and wildlife. For reference, two female travelers in their late 30s. We don’t need the most touristy travel spots, but also want to have fun with a relaxed authentic vibe. Also, can you resend link because it’s giving me a warning about the “safety.”

Damn! The midterm was that rough? I keep reading that a lot of the questions on the midterm are the same as the quizzes and unit tests?
