Hey! WELCOME to my channel:) My name is Holley Rojek! I am 21 years old, and I am a nursing student in my fourth semester, working toward my BSN. My program is 5 semesters long (2.5 years), so I would love to have you follow along my journey! I love fitness and health. It changed my life two years ago and it has become a massive passion of mine. I post tons of different things involving nursing, tips and tricks, beauty, workouts, lifestyle, vlogging, etc.! I appreciate EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU who supports me. I promise I notice every comment, like, share, etc.! Any negative comments will be deleted and you will be blocked. I like happy people. THANK YOU FOR WATCHING :)

[@climatecrisisdragon3628]

We are not allowed to put on makeup at clinicals. I just study notes and go. I don't really plan that much. It doesn't have to be complicated imo. Just make sure you have the things you need, pay attention, don't be late. There isn't much to it imo. It's cool it this is how you role though, however you do it that works do that.

[@PurpleGems210]

I want to go to nursing school, i dont even know where to begin!😩 I would love to go for my BSN!!

[@Sarah-sd8gd]

GO for it!!!! Its a lot of work and you will cry laugh and all the other ranges of emotions, lack of sleep will become the norm but it is worth it. the feeling you get the first time you put a smile on a patients face is beyond amazing and it just gets better the more you learn and are able to activly participate in the care of the patient. and for warning even in your last year (im in my last year) you still feel like you dont know enough, but that's okay its normal you cant know everything, learn everything you can learn as much as possible ask questions and in clinical get as much skills practice as you can in the labs and in clinical and if your school has sim(simulations) DO THEM!! they really do help prepare you. Make friends and stick together because most of the people who arent in nursing wont understand the intensity of what you are going through. and a good support system is beyond important espetially after a bad clinical day or just when you need people to relate too. i wish you the best hope you go for it and get in to join this whole new world. :D
