Free music, XM, Serius, Yahoo
When I study I tend to get the most out of my time when I listen to music. I find background noise like talking very distracting. However, if I listen to music I seem to focus better. Plus if I listen to something upbeat while working on math, I grind though things a little better.
Here are some places to go for tunes online.
Yahoo is great because it is completly free. You can access a ton of great stations, plus you can create your own with your preferences for those with ecclectic taste it gives you control over the variety you hear. The down side is having to listen to occasional advertisements, and wait for buffering.
XM is my favorite music to listen to online. It offers a better mix of music with each of it’s stations compared to yahoo. If you already have a XM radio subscription, then you can listen online for free. However, if not you do have to pay. But the cost is very affordable. Also if you have windows Vista, you can download an XM radio gadget from windows that will play XM from your desktop.
I know that Serius radio has an online option. However, I prefer XM. I think it has better talk radio (Like Opie and Anthony) Serius has Howard Stern, but I don’t really like him.
Welcome to my blog!
My name is Corinne and I am a 28 year old nursing student at Peninsula College, in Washington. I applied to The Peninsula College School of Nursing in Spring of 2009 and was accepted into the Fall 2009 nursing program and like most students working through Nursing School it is a time really focus on being the best student and potential nurse you can be.
As with many adult students returning to college this is not my first career choice. I have worked as a book keeper and office assistant. However, I wanted to make a change after having my daughter (now two) and find something that I loved and could support myself doing. Nursing was a perfect fit.
In returning to school to complete my nursing prerequisites, I noticed several things. First there are an increasing number of adults returning to school and a lack of information available that addresses many of our needs. Second, Nursing school is extremely competitive and hard to get into even though the need for good nurses is through the roof. So this blog is primarily devoted to nursing students but may be helpful to any student really. Occasionally I throw in tidbits about politics and nutrition.
I love feedback so please comment often, and if you ever have questions, let me know I am always looking for new topics to post about.
Thank you for reading,
Corinne
