**Drum circle on Venice Beach
Linda L, RN
Venice Beach, California**
The drum circles are something that goes on at Venice Beach quite frequently. Sometimes there are only many different types of drums, other times there are stringed instruments and horns. It's an awesome experience! You see all ethnic groups, ages, types, everything. It is a truly joyful thing that happens spontaneously.
On this day, another travel nurse friend and myself, along with my 24 yr old daughter were in the process of leaving the circle and when I got to the boardwalk I turned and saw the sunset.

Wannabe Nurse - Advice Please
Hello there,
My name is Rosie and I am a single mother who is interested in training to become a Nurse. I know that to train will be a big commitment and a great deal of time and hard work - I would like to hear from some other single parent nurses who have gone through the process and get some advice on what is best to do. I know that this is something I really want to do but obviously my daughter is the first priority and I want to be able to commit fully to her needs as well as my training. It would be great to hear any wise or encouraging words from anyone.
Kind Regards,
Rosie
On the Lighter Side
Accounting Interview
Rick, fresh out of accounting school, went to a interview for a good paying job. The company boss asked various questions about him and his education, but then asked him, "What is three times seven?"
"22," Rick replied. After he left, he double-checked it on his calculator (he *knew* he should have taken it to the interview!) and realized he wouldn't get the job.
About two weeks later, he got a letter that said he was hired for the job! He was not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, but was still very curious. The next day, he went in and asked why he got the job, even though he got such a simple question wrong. The boss shrugged and said, "Well, you were the closest."
