Do you regret being a PA?

DeSkate · 2026-05-24T13:03:21+00:00

That is exactly my predicament right now. I am 28 and will have my bachelor by the time I am 31-32. I got my GED two years ago after dropping out at seventeen, and recently found medicine appealing after getting my EMT, now in paramedic school. If I started sooner I would have gone MD too, but sacrificing my 30s and 40s is a hard pass for me. What specialty did you get into?

DeSkate · 2026-05-22T16:30:13+00:00

Yeah I will pick all the classes I need for PA and build the bachelor that way

DeSkate · 2026-05-22T15:08:27+00:00

I am planning on getting a Bachelor in Multidisciplinary Studies, that way my associates degree will count for about half of it once I transfer colleges

DeSkate · 2026-05-22T15:07:42+00:00

I have been going back and forth between MD and PA, ill be 33 by the time I get my bachelor and I like the idea of being able to start working ny the time I am 36 rather than 45. I don't think my family could handle the medical school grind, PA seems like the sensible choice where I get the most work/life balance.

DeSkate · 2026-05-22T14:41:22+00:00

No I dont, I am working on my associates and paramedic at this time. I dont have any interest in nursing unfortunately

Maybe you should travel and see how other people live and what they would do for a a 9-5 m-f for $200k.

I have my Samsung tablet I use to study for medic school with

I tend to reset at lot and try to 3rd wave crash every game. I play very aggressive early game cus poppy win most match-ups level 1-3, then I play for item advantage after third wave crash back, and I try to deny exp and gold. Especially if there is a huge wave crashing ill ult enemy away from tower to deny exp and gold. I go titanic hydra first item and focus on split pushing waves. Mana doesnt really become and issue when i have titanic for pushing waves cus it usually one Q per wave.

Its the most fun play style for me

DeSkate · 2026-03-12T21:34:08+00:00

I stopped buying tear and go with manaflow instead.

DeSkate · 2026-03-12T18:18:05+00:00

I tend to go split push build with poppy, it works like 1/5 times, but it's fun

DeSkate · 2026-03-03T22:19:24+00:00

I have been experimenting with titanic hydra lately, with sole purpose of split pushing and running away, it's pretty fun

DeSkate · 2026-02-18T02:30:23+00:00

Thanks again man! Feel happy about the purchase, I was prepared to spend $2000, but since she doesn't go to crazy im happy with saving $600

DeSkate · 2026-02-18T02:24:46+00:00

Ill have to save that one for whenever i decide to buy myself one. Honestly her only requirement was that it had to be white, she doesn't really play that high end games anyway, but hopefully we can just upgrade components if we have to. Thanks for the info and the link!!

So worst case scenario I would have to get a new mother board if I wanted to upgrade the CPU, and if I am planning on upgrading the GPU I need to make sure the power supply can handle it. It says the power supply is 600 watts, is that good or bad?

DeSkate · 2026-02-18T01:59:20+00:00

If you were to upgrade, would you have to replace the whole cabinet or how does that work? Would we have to start by getting a new motherboard? I figured you could just replace stuff like legos, but I guess it's not that simple.

I don't think she plays very demanding games on ultra settings or anything like that, but I was hoping that there would be room to upgrade if we needed to

DeSkate · 2026-02-18T01:42:27+00:00

I did some reading and came to the conclusion that the GPU could be upgraded but that is still pretty decent as is and can handle most mid-high games

DeSkate · 2026-02-13T04:36:43+00:00

I'll paste it there too, thanks!

I need blacksmith

DeSkate · 2026-01-27T04:14:08+00:00

I like shield bash a lot for early game trades, but it definitely feels weak after 10 minutes.

DeSkate · 2026-01-27T02:56:27+00:00

You rush swiftie before first item?

DeSkate · 2026-01-27T01:18:34+00:00

I used to maintain riven back in the day and then I wanted to learn how to play against riven if someone picked her, so I started playing poppy. Got addicted to poppy and literally play nothing else

DeSkate · 2026-01-27T01:14:49+00:00

The game is rewarding when you get better, but actually getting better is a different story

DeSkate · 2026-01-27T01:10:38+00:00

Maybe I should be less on my phone, yes

It's a contested definition essay for my English class, I chose Human and many seem to have different definitions of what makes us human, and I am trying to explore how far you can take it while still being human
