I started my orientation today as a Nurse and I totally understand your feeling that time has flown by. It's already been a month since I graduated and sitting back, it still feels surreal.

Congrats! What type of position did you take? Is it Ob/Gyn if I remember correctly? I notice that your location is Philly. Have you always been there or did you just recently move there for the job/school? I'm originally from Philly, specifically the Willow Grove/Doylestown area. We'll have chat about it sometime if you are there now. Best wishes on the NCLEX and new job. Keep in touch!

I took a position in Labor & Delivery.

And yes, I just moved to Philly from B'more for work & graduate school next year.

I'm living in the Northern Liberties area. Any recommendations on cool things I just have to do while living here?!

Thanks for the best wishes... after the practice exam I just took, it looks like I'll need it!

That's so awesome. I knew L&D was your passion. I was my 2nd choice after cardiac, and I'm still thinking about going into women's public health later in life
