Nursing is a second career for me. It is one I have approached gradually‚ over a long period of time. I might have chosen it as a first career if I had been a better student when I entered college‚ or had people in my life who were involved in healthcare careers when I was growing up.

There aren’t many options for quick relief from high prices at the pump‚ but it is very obvious the sooner we free ourselves from the shackles of oil dependence – foreign and domestic – the sooner we will be free of

When conducting research about an author‚ it is crucial to understand why and what the author is writing about. Literary realism depicts things as they truly are‚ which is exactly what my chosen author‚ Rebecca Harding Davis‚ did when she wrote.
