February 7, 200917 yr comment_1752 22 April, test date... I am getting a little bit anxious Trying to collect all I have learned through last seven years and keep myself calm.... repeating myself all the time - do not panic do not panic do not panic If everything goes well by the end of may, after all exams I shall call myself "neonatologist". ( hope so.. .). My friends enjoy first lovely warm weekend this year and I sit by my computer and read read read. What comes to my mind is why don't we create in 99.nicu something like a "virtual party" - a place where we can celebrate our big and small sucsesses- share with other members our graduation, passed exams, gained awards, publications PhD's and so on ( maybe even new family members ). This could be a part - maybe just thread in forum for other members to congratulate someone, maybe create small virtual "gifts" - lsomething like for example a picture of anniversary cake with candle on our calendar. What do you think? I wait for your opinions and come back to my books. BTW - can you tell me how to deal with constantly changing opinions, standards and theories in our knowledge? Sometimes I have the feeling I have to learn every year from the beginning Send Sticky Note
February 8, 200917 yr Hi! So you have a degree ahead, you'll do great! I like your ideas how that we can promote and cheer each other. As far as I know there are no applications (like on Facebook and similar sites) to "bump" and send gifts to each other, I will keep my eyes open for such extensions to our software. But, there are ways to solve this. You/we could start a discussion thread in the Lounge, you/we can blog about the good things we do and achieve. Maybe the best option would be to start a Social Group for salutes! (Social Groups can be added by anyone, you can start your own Krakow Group for instance) I open a new Social Group, let's see what happens! NB: Only logged in members have access to the social groups. Like the Lounge, they are closed for non-members.
February 8, 200917 yr good idea.even small victories need celebration to keep up the tempo of life.the suggession of social group is welcome.
February 8, 200917 yr So... I have created one. I could not figure out a good name though. Can you come up with a better suggestions than "Congratulations". You find this group (and others) here: http://99nicu.org/forum/group.php
February 9, 200917 yr How about "Celebrations...."? Much better! Changed! Now, post in the Celebrations Group when you want to be celebrated! http://www.99nicu.org/forum/group.php?groupid=4
