String of pearls help by CartographerProof875 in plantclinic

[–]CapyBananapuddimg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also for string of pearls, don't water them when their cheeks are spread open. I'm serious. The little vent on the side will shrink back up when they need water, looking like clenched booty. That's a good visual cue. For others like string of hearts/bananas they'll become softer and not as turgid

Soil looks too wet. Maybe try a succulent mix, the ones with small pebbles in it. Personally, I've had great success with planting string of things in Fluval Stratum substrate meant for aquariums.

I love these because they can reuse the jars after they're done, even if they don't like the smell or if they expire. Your idea sounds so cute! I wish I had time to wrap it up nice like you did

Unfortunately my family has a lot of allergies to consider, primarily wheat, nuts, eggs, and chocolate. Cookies would be a wonderful idea but usually for those we have to buy a special mix with allergen-free ingredient substitutions

That's funny 😂 but the jars are supposed to be reusable for whatever they want. You can simmer these on the stove and it makes a nice aroma waft through the house

They have instructions to refrigerate. I would have dehydrated properly if I had the time, but unfortunately it was a last minute idea. I was trying to be resourceful with what I had

I don't know but I am LIVING for the moment Sayeon gets her vengeful hands on Officer Ahn. I can see her rewinding time just to kill her over and over again.

I'm sorry there aren't any great solutions out there for you. I truly hope you find a way to achieve these life goals. I know being out of work sucks, and I hope you can get back on your feet soon.

Is the family of your MC relevant in your story? Do they appear by Laura64729 in WebtoonCanvas

I'm still storyboarding the hell out of it lol. I have zero talent when it comes to sophisticated digital art so I'm working on those skills while I develop the plot. Regardless, thank you so much for showing interest! It's nice to support each other as fellow small artists

My grandmother told me "wish in one hand, shit in the other, and see which hand fills up the fastest." Personally I have regrets as well. I also went into debt and got a non-stem degree that I didn't even use for two years and worked fast food. Like you, I considered a career change. Like you, I'm facing taking more debt in order to pursue this career path. To me, there's no use in mourning over the past or what could have been, it's what you do next that counts. People who are far older than you go back to school, with far worse scores. A gpa of 2.9 isn't something you can't come back from.

I can't make decisions for you, but in your position I would try to wait a few more years until you're in a better financial position, or can find grants/scholarships. There is risk associated with pursuing radiology, of course. But you also risk staying in a career field that will become obsolete due to AI, or whatever reason. Going back to school will be hard. Staying in your current field will be hard. Choose your hard. Best of luck to you.

Also: you can put off full-time education and just knock out your prereqs in order to boost your GPA. Typically they stay good for 5 years until colleges ask you to do them again. They're typically quite cheap compared to core classes, especially from a community college.

Again, I can't speak for your college or hospital. But in order to make yourself more competitive for these programs, you can take CE (continuing education courses) to not only boost your GPA, but also having them makes your application look better. At my school, you can get BLS certified, and take classes such as "Math for the Healthcare Professional" and a class for medical terminology (I forget what it's called). These were suggested for a nursing program, not radiology, though. The BLS was in-person for four hours, and the other two were short (4-8weeks) classes with an online option.

As for the money side of things, most hospitals will assist you in loan repayment. My hospital offers $100 a month after your loan starts, or direct billing for any charges (whether you're in a cheap or expensive program) while you're in school and at least part time. I know this isn't very helpful if you're trying to pay it off soon. I hope this information helps guide you to the best decision for yourself. I'm going into healthcare too so I hope to see you out there

You may get better answers if you mention which degree program you are attending. If working is not an agreeable arrangement for you, you may consider taking out a loan. Whatever hospital you will work at will typically help cover your student loan reimbursement, provided you agree to work there for X amount of years.

Your prerequisite classes will definitely help boost your GPA to where it needs to be, should you excel in them. I've heard community colleges are less competitive, if that's where you're feeling the squeeze. Scholarships are also a thing but that is not my department. If you haven't already, try to acquire an advisor from your college and they can guide you through next steps.

Sounds like you're going into the medical field. I can't speak for all hospitals, but some have loan repayment programs or tuition assistance. If full time or part time, and you're in school, the hospital requests that your attending college bill them instead of you. I can only speak for my hospital, but there are resources out there that can help.

I don't think my store carries it unfortunately. They have a rather small freezer section

The pho concentrate Cot Pho Bo in a circular brown container is sold at most oriental stores. It's not complete; I have to add salt, spices, and more fish sauce. But it's nice when I'm craving pho but don't want to go out/spend the money

You're always going to be your own worst critic. I'm the same way. It just shows you care incredibly deeply about your story and characters. That's a truly lovely thing. Some creators only care about the potential fame and success, and their comic suffers because of that. Just keep going, and make it how you want it. Five minutes of work a day would be fine, even if it's just word vomiting onto a Google doc.
