  • I suppose my parents were lucky. When I was a Junior, I had no interest in the prom whatsoever. I didn't really care for any of the people I went to school with, much less wanting to see them when on my free time.

  • Don't do it. The stress, the risk and the lack of respect nurses receive make nursing a job only for the masochistic among us. I don't recommend it to any of my friends or relatives when they ask about choosing it as a profession.
