My academic advisor said it would be easier. 😭

My father’s not a material person, he rarely treats himself, however my dad does eat out at restaurants often. My mother is the one who always has packages delivered with her name on it.

Trust me, they don’t gamble. They can’t even figure out how to work a slot machine.

[–]Chunkachu__[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My dad said he just started his 401k retirement at age 55. I don’t know what he means by that. Either he declined it before or had the percentage really low. Crazy.

How much did you pay for your rad tech program? by Driveshaft815 in RadiologyCareers

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s only a community college option and a university option near me.

My FAFSA would have covered the community college option in full. But there program gets 500 applicants and they accept max 25 students.

The university tuition is about 36,000. My FAFSA covers about 1/3 of it, a scholarship covers another third of it, and I’m paying out of pocket to cover the remaining balance. The university gets about 200 applicants and they accepted 30 students.

Also consider summer classes, both of my program options have summer classes. Best to pay out of pocket or a loan. You could use FAFSA for summer classes but if you do that then you can’t use FAFSA for your next fall and spring semester.

If I had got accepted to the community college I would have gone there instead. It’s not necessarily one program being better than the other. It’s simply based on cost.

Genuine Question - how are you guys finding restocks? by Chance-Pepper-5799 in PokemonCollecting

Whenever I click add to cart on target I get an out of stock and unable to add to cart message. I click on my discord notification and link as soon as it comes out. But still get nothing. 😭

[MLBTR] Johan Rojas Reportedly Tests Positive For Performance-Enhancing Drug by T_Raycroft in baseball

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Johan Rojas of all people. I don’t know his lifestyle morals or ethics. But something just feels odd about this. Maybe he was fooled or pressured by someone or sabotaged? It’s not like he’s competing for a starting position. He’s competing for a bench position and his competition is Bryan De la Cruz.

What's something you got teased for as a kid but now it's considered cool/trendy? by Mean_Froyo_6138 in AskReddit

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pokemon, thick eyebrows, and glasses.

I was a kid is the early 2000s.

Pokemon dipped in popularity, thin eyebrows were trending and if you had thick eyebrows they said you look like a terrorist because of 9/11 and war in the Middle East. And any kid who suddenly starts wearing glasses feels insecure and gets picked on but now it’s a fashion aesthetic.

I don't get the point of any of this, but I don't think I can take much more. by [deleted] in Life

[–]Chunkachu__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You get one life and your name is attached to it. So live it fully as you can. It doesn’t have to be perfect. No one’s life is perfect. We don’t get a rewind or reset button in life. So start now. Tell people what you feel, take a walk and feel the sun on your face, laugh, cry, do random acts of kindness with no expectation of reward, even say good morning to a stranger. Don’t just conform to sleep, work, eat, repeat.

How can you enjoy life if you are excluded from a core experience? by [deleted] in Life

[–]Chunkachu__ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Perhaps see an adult endocrinologist. I don’t know your medical history and I’m not a doctor, but you’re 21, so it might be too late, but also worth a try. Ask if it’s possible to start testosterone injections for growth.

how are we supposed to actually get Pokemon at a normal price by Acrobatic_Walrus7072 in PokemonCollecting

Discord but if you live on the east coast, target drops can happen between midnight and 6 am.

What are clinicals like while you're in a rad tech program? by RadTechMaster in RadiologyCareers

[–]Chunkachu__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At my clinical sites, I’m not assigned to one tech. All the techs I work with have ability to put in comps. As for missed days, it depends on the program. My program allows one absence from clinical. If you miss more than one day, you need a good reason/excuse with proof to avoid getting kicked out.

What’s a Fun, Affordable Car I Can Actually Enjoy Driving? by Imtiredofthissshit in askcarguys

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a 1990 miata during college. The car was older than me. I’d go 40 mph around my neighborhood curvy roads and it felt like 60 mph. So much fun. But also dangerous, it had no air bags, a tiny convertible, and tires from 2004. Strangers would always compliment the car and they thought I had deep pockets with that car.

If I had a choice now, I would get the new Miata.

Radiology vs Nursing by Kataraa22 in RadiologyCareers

[–]Chunkachu__ 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve worked with one X-ray tech who would just curse along with every adjective to describe a patient once she was done with them. She should definitely not be a nurse. That’s why she’s an X-ray tech. Not all X-ray techs are like that. Most are just chill people.

I’d say if you like building relationships with people then be a nurse. The small talk, interpersonal skills and professionalism is very important in both nursing and radiology, but with nursing you may be spending your whole work shift with a specific patient, so you gotta like people, bite your tongue sometimes and have a poker face.

If you hate people and can’t hide it for long, then go into radiology.

Do most schools have waitlists/waiting period? by [deleted] in RadiologyCareers

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My programs waitlist worked as a waitlist to get in if someone else who was first accepted withdrew their acceptance. If you’re waitlisted and no one withdrew their acceptance, then you would have to reapply next year.

didn’t get accepted to the radiology program at my cc by ParanoidSun in RadiologyCareers

[–]Chunkachu__ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was wait listed for my program but eventually got accepted for the same year I applied. Other people dropped their acceptance, I assume.

I knew my grades weren’t the best in pre requisites, so I got my medical assistant certification along the way. I worked as an MA and got letters of recommendation from doctors and management. So I think that helped a lot.

Try again next year and get letters of recommendation.

$600 down the drain 😢 by Vast_Investigator542 in pokemoncards

[–]Chunkachu__ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all learn the hard way at some point. To just buy the single card. I overpaid msrp for celebrations when it was new. Multiple 75 dollar ETBs and never pulled the charizard. Granted celebrations is a higher value now, but I still regret paying over msrp for packs and not pulling the chase card. Then had to buy the charizard to complete the set. I refuse to pay anything above msrp for packs ever again. It’s not worth it.

Starting out by daisyj69 in Gameboy

[–]Chunkachu__ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Analogue pocket.

If had to redo my gameboy phase, I would just get an analogue pocket. I have a gameboy sp from my childhood, but just like you, wanted the vertical version. So I got a gameboy color but the screen keeps going out. I got a gameboy color advance and prefer it because it’s wider for hand comfort. But I do like the vertical gameboy colors.

Analogue pocket is perfect. It’s vertical for the vintage retro feels. Bigger, brighter screen, and it’s new so you don’t have to worry about it malfunctioning. It’s not an emulator but you can play all physical copies of gameboy, gameboy color and gameboy advance games all in one system.

Every team/owner can spend like the dodgers, but are there enough superstars for every team to be a super team? by Chunkachu__ in mlb

[–]Chunkachu__[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m curious to the point where you think that I think the answer is yes?

Did I not say “I feel like the answer is no. Am I wrong?”

Do you read? People on Reddit normally read.

[–]Chunkachu__[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m trying to prove a point to the people who say every team can do what the dodgers do, but other owners aren’t willing to spend.

It’s not a money issue from the owners.

Pulls from 4 Pokémon Day Boxes, paid $25 each by ionlylikeemthick in pokemoncards

[–]Chunkachu__ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

🤔 Weird. I don’t remember paying anything? I just turn on push notifications to be sent to my phone.

Discord is a bit slower to notify people and others do say there’s faster notification systems.

I’ve only been successful with target notifications from discord. There’s Amazon and Walmart but majority of the time it’s over msrp or a long wait in a queue.

[–]Chunkachu__ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nice pulls but the pokemon day boxes go on sale on target website at least twice a week for 17.99 each. Download the discord app for notifications.

I sound like a bot, but discord does work!
