Y’all I’m in my last year of nursing school, I’m tired, exhausted, fatigued, stressed, depressed, and the happiest I’ve ever been because I know my future is bright. It’s hard and gruesome but completely going to be worth it.
I graduated on Feb 18th and was scheduled to take NCLEX on March 17th. Due to Covid, my NCLEX was cancelled at 11pm the night before my exam! I was already worked as a graduate nurse and they told me that I would have to be a tech until I could take boards. I was heartbroken. I had been a tech for 4 years prior to this. I found this out the same day that I found out that my graduation ceremony would be cancelled. I cried soooo hard. On the 23rd, I found out that they had reopened limited testing centers across the US. I was so excited! I jumped to go schedule! I drove 4 1/2 hours on the 25th and I cried the whole drive back because I got the full 130 questions that they have temporarily reduced the exam down to. I just knew I had failed. On the 27th of March, I found out that I had passed!!!! I am officially Candy BSN, RN
1. I love your curls. 2. You’re gorgeous. 3. I’m here for any and all nursing advice because I graduate in 58 days.!! Thank you and keep the inspiration coming!! 🙃☺️
I took my NCLEX 2 1/2 weeks after graduating, but I’m glad I did because I would’ve been too stressed waiting any longer lol. And a huge yes to the stress- after hard nights I always wake up frequently thinking about everything that happened. 9 months in to this career and so happy!
"You're not used to having money!" ---So me, I'll be graduating from ssc in May. I start practicum course on Wednesday. I went to a hiring event in February and was offered a nurse residency in the ER! I've been watching your videos since before I applied to nursing school. Your videos are so helpful, thank you!
Needed this! Just graduated during this pandemic and thought I was going to magically take NCLEX the same day and work 12 hours later lol!! Starting to realize we are in a pandemic and that everything will fall in place when it does! Definitely have a new subscriber ❤️🥰
Oh My Gosh I just finished watching your channel and almost teared up a little bit when you said you’ve been a nurse for 2.5 years. I’ve been watching you since you were in nursing school & at the time I was trying to get accepted into nursing (got rejected twice but the third time is a charm!💜) I remember watching your channel wanting nothing more than to be a cool smart young beautiful nursing student like you & now all I wanna do is flourish into a prosperous intelligent RN just like you. I graduate nursing school in December of 2020 (hopefully if everything stays on track bc of Covid-19) & I’ve been so paranoid about being a young nurse bc I’ll barely be 23 when I graduate but after being a faithful subscriber for so long, you really do give me hope every time your drop a video! Thanks so much for being such a down to earth nurse & always showing the real🤍💜
I got so emotional when you were realizing you have been a nurse for 2.5 years! I have been watching you since you were in nursing school and I was a junior in high school barely getting through my CNA courses. I also remember the video of you checking your email to see if you passed! You have always been an inspiration and I cannot wait to use all these tips after graduating. (Hopefully in 2 years if I get accepted to start this fall)
Thanks! I’m in my first year of being a nurse. The stress is unreal! I used to cry before every shift. Thanks for sharing! It’s nice to know what I’m going through as a new nurse does get better.
@@lele1722 there's a major called "nursing." Check to see if your colege offers such a major. If not, you'll probably have to transfer for nursing school
Long time no see nursing QUEEN! Was so excited to see your notification because you always give the most real and helpful advice. Currently in my fourth semester and doing clinical. Wish me luck nurse fam!
Granddaughter is in 2nd month of residency. She was transferred into her dream job Labor and Delivery at a Magnet hospital.. She took, wrote the NCLEX in 75 questions four days after graduating CUMMA SUM LAUDE,
I’m sooooo happy to see you posting again! I wish you and Fatima would have came to Charlotte! Love you guys! You motivate me so much to go back to school & become a nurse. I have a 3 year old and I'm doing this for me and him! I will be back at school this year! 🤞🏽
This is right on time. I graduate this May thank God!!!! Thank you for this video and also roller skating has kept me from going crazy in nursing school so that's my outlet.
I needed this. I'm a CNA and in school for nursing and it's so refreshing to be reminded of the reasons I'm doing this and why I'm looking forward to being a nurse. Thank you 💜
These last four years have been absolutely hell, but I graduate in May magna cum laude with my BSN and a Labor & Delivery nurse residency lined up for me at a great hospital. I still have like 8 more weeks to go, but the finish line is VERY clear now. Hang in there everyone. Work your ass off, because it is SO going to be worth it ❤️
I’m so happy I found this video, thank you for the reminder I need to take it easy for a hot second lol. I’ve been watching you since pre reqs, didn’t get to watch much of anything through school, graduated yesterday, and so happy I could still come to your page for advice. Thank you for all the encouragement throughout the years, your videos really motivated me throughout this journey💕
Well hey sis!!! Its been a while!! I'm still pushing through pre nursing with 2 classes left..I'm scared to start the program because of all the stories
I remember years ago watching a video you filmed in front of your Christmas tree. I think you had just gotten into nursing school, i honestly dont remember the topic of the video . I remember telling myself " if she can do it , so can i. " I graduate in 59 days ( and counting ) and by God's grace have secured my dream job. I know people like to bash influences and say that what you do isn't important. But it is. You motivated me to go for what i want. All i'm really trying to say is thank you for doing what you do.
Last year of School can't wait to finish everything. Thanks for this video it was very helpful and uplifting to hear all the things I've been asking the nether to be voiced in a confident manner.
Ahhh my sister and I graduate with our BSN this December and I am beyond scared and excited! We’re planning to celebrate with a family trip before we get back on the grind for the NCLEX. So nice to hear you say to give ourselves a little break after graduation. Thank you for this vid!💕💕
Lol I have soooooo many illnesses that when I go into the hospital people think I'm a nurse or in the medical field. I will tell you a good nurse will make it break a patient's stay. Great job!
Love your advice thank u so much. Class of December 2020! I've been on a mental health break and I'm pretty scared of everything right now lol I appreciate this video
my nclex was delayed partly my fault because i graduated in decemeber ; i paid pearson but i didnt pay TBON (which i forgot we had to do) well the director was out of town and different things because of xmas, then it was new years, then once the stuff got sent off you had to wait 10 buinsess day for tbon to get the stuff then 10 days for pearson to accept the stuff.. Then the dates i wanted to take the test werent available... it was a big cluster.... any nursing student reading this ,, pay your fees and send in your stuff a month ahead of time.
In Canada, at least the state I live in, we can work with a temporary license. So we can work while waiting to write our nclex. it's super awesome :) I didn't know you guys didn't have that
Wow three months lol my anxiety would be up. It did take me a month to take it. Not because I wanted to study, but this was the fastest I could take it
I so need a video about stress techniques because while I knew nursing was going to be stressful, I did not expect it to be this hard. I'm a mom and still haven't found a way to balance that with school. Also, I realized I have an embarrassingly weak stomach to smells so I'm constantly trying to find ways to help with that.
Can you do an apartment tour next and since you moved out of your old apartment can you say whaat the name of the building is. I'm interested in a studio
@@jessicachavez9848 I live in Alabama but the cost of living is well below the national and especially the California cost of living. I think the high wages in the bay area is in part to balance out the cost of living there because it is one of the most expensive places to live.
I really want to be a nurse, wanted to be one since I was young. But now that i'm about to start nursing school, i'm scared. I'm scared that I won't be able to pass nursing school or the NCLEX. I'm also scared that I will mess up as a nurse and possibly affect the health of my patients. Any advice on how to overcome/control these fears?
Im not worried about all that, Im worried about passing my classes lol Im not doing so well in two of them and I have one summer semester to go after this spring one.
Lol I'll be so excited probably gonna wanna jump straight in but I'll try to let my brain rest for a little while Maybe go to the beach for a few days.
what major did you study in college? is there a specific one needed to become an RN ? Can I major in Psychology and apply to nursing school or how does that work?
Hell, it’s hell after nursing school lol school really does not prepare you at all to working as a nurse, especially at an inpatient setting It’s really some trying times over here, but I hear it gets better
