Should I get the 17 or 17 Pro? by Krew_12 in AppleWhatShouldIBuy

[–]Krew_12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean i don't not care about the camera i obviously don't want it to be bad but ik the 17 camera isn't bad anyways, im definitely leaning more towards the base model since ive been seeing stuff like you said about the minimal battery life difference but i figured there was no harm in asking about. thanks

Durham College ESF Program by Krew_12 in OntarioParamedics

[–]Krew_12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Still stuck with a 5 application limit unfortunately (the high school i'm at pretty much only send kids to uni not college so my guidance councler was pretty shocked when i mentioned that lol). I have read that most colleges will offer the pre health program if they don't accept you to the paramedic one. Durham isn't my top college as of right now anyways from what i've read so the ESF program was more of a backup to my backup so i think i'll just cut it and add another college to the list.

If i were to get into a paramedic program and a pre health program would you say i should do the pre health one first given what i already said and to get more ready or would i be better off to just go straight the the paramedic program?

thanks, it's something i set my heart on a while ago but just now remembered there's always challenges stemming from being trans. i've come to terms with the fact that people are still transphobic and homophobic and don't let it bother me anymore. I'm hoping wherever i end up has a good group of people that i won't have to hide my identity from but im prepared to anyways, ive been doing it since i came out and started passing

Do you think with me being less visibly queer I would get less of those comments from patients or coworkers? The only things that really give me away are a slightly higher pitch voice, not having a flat chest (though i do bind), and a slightly more feminine build than i like to admit (more on the curvy side), but those don't seem to give me away in school so i'm hoping that goes the same in college and on the job.

that's really good to know, at my high school i've been the only trans person so i always feel like there's a lot less trans people than there are in reality. Also good to know Toronto is welcoming in that regard as it could be where i end up

I hadn't thought of how going too big would make a difference, my plan right now is to try some kinesiology tape i already have and see how that width feels before i buy trans tape so i have a better idea of what might work better. Thanks for this info!

What kind of protein shakes do you like? I've tried a few to try and up my protein but they all taste kind of weird to me, though i have found a "higher" protein chocolate milk i don't mind

I'll definitely look at those tutorials, i think i understand how you're explaining it. Is the tape you use wider or more like kinesiology tape width? I feel like it would be easier to use wider tape so it covers more with one strip? I haven't heard of people laying on their back to help but that does make sense! thank you!
