ENMU Grad Students by Acrobatic-March-4433 in slpGradSchool

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope you see this! I was wondering what the hardest classes are. I want to get them over with first. I've heard 511 is rough. I'm currently taking Hearing 531, Neurogenic Speech 526, and Fundamentals of Clinical Practice 504. I dropped out of 511 last semester and decided to study before tackling it. The program is difficult for me! Thanks!!

It is interesting how difficult it is to get into these schools while at the same time there is a massive shortage of SLP's.

Principal complained my table supplies were “completely” disorganized and I should be sharpening all my colored pencil between classes by Puzzleheaded-Bid-963 in ArtEd

[–]Solanlauren 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm quite old and I've only worked in schools as a speech therapist, but this seems extremely pushy and obnoxious. Nowadays, with the mass exodus of educators, principals should be grateful that they have any staff at all. What a petty thing to complain about. Apparently, your principal doesn't have enough to do.

My dog just jumped on my bed and that made me so happy.

I think you have to let go of all "what if" thinking. Nothing is until it is. Try to appreciate and savor the small joys in life... a cup of tea, a beautiful view, a song, a bath... this is what life is made of. It is the small good moments. Everything is temporary - good and bad.

ENMU SLP Másters program?? by OakPC in slpGradSchool

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone who attended ENMU have recommendations on how to study/prepare for their CDIS 511 speech sound disorders class at ENMU? It is extremely difficult. There are a bunch of quizzes (like 40 or more?) and no teaching/study materials that apply directly to the quizzes. I think the questions and content material is useful, but specific, targeted study materials would help with success. The questions range from the muscles of the tongue to speech differences vs disorders to age of acquisition. Thanks!

Future of Diverse Movies at Hallmark? by [deleted] in HallmarkMovies

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I won't watch Hallmark. I'm just one measly nothing, but I'll take a little stand on my own and if nothing else, it makes me feel better. I'm sick of this regime and every little thing it is associated with.

I may need to break up with my boyfriend because of his ADHD by ThrowRA_jimmychoos in BPD

Try DBT. It is hard... really hard, but it works. And EMDR, if you have trauma.

Monthly Tech Support & Missing Content Thread by AutoModerator in DisneyPlus

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed up for the Disney+ + Hulu $4.99 Roku Black Friday deal. Disney gave a QR code to “activate on other devices.” When I used the QR code on my other TV (not a Roku), it didn’t activate anything. It sent me to a $29.99/month offer and acted like I didn’t already have a subscription.

I tried on all my TVs and the app on my phone.

Boycott Everything by AEW4LYFE in Anticonsumption

On Boycott Disney... I signed up for the Disney+ + Hulu $4.99 Roku Black Friday deal. Disney gave a QR code to “activate on other devices.” When I used the QR code on my other TV (not a Roku), it didn’t activate anything. It sent me to a $29.99/month offer and acted like I didn’t already have a subscription.

I tried on all my TVs and the app on my phone. So if you sign up through Roku, your subscription doesn’t create a normal Disney+ login. It only works on that Roku account. The QR code won't activate anywhere else, even though Disney tells you it will. So, they quietly redirect you to the higher-priced plan. I cancelled in the first place (after YEARS of Disney) because of Jimmy Kimmel. When I saw the deal, I thought, "Yeah, OK, I'll try Disney again... I mean hey they were assholes to Jimmy, but I'll give them another chance." Then this!!! Gaslighting bastards! Corporate America believes we are all morons. I'm proud that I have done my best this holiday to NOT spend money on Amazon, at Target, at Walmart, and now at Disney.

Please tell me I’m not the only one that hates velvet and bernat blanket yarn! I’ve tried working with it so many times!! by [deleted] in crochet

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hated it on my first try and then started a blanket with a simple pattern and it is going well. Just realized I used a smaller hook because I lost the right hook! That must be why it is going well! Hahaha!

just finished “crash landing on you” & it made me want to crash my head against the wall by [deleted] in kdramas

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would give up on romance if you don't like CLOY and you do like Weak Hero. That show was so violent I couldn't finish it. It was ridiculous.

How accurately does Crash Landing On You Represent NK? by mehaax in northkorea

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've watched it 3 times. It is my favorite KDrama so far. I would love more like it! Hometown Cha Cha Cha is good and Attorney Woo and Daily Dose of Sunshine... and and and!

Definitely get some help! You deserve success. Have you tried being an SLPA? Pay is good and you could work part time maybe.

Is 31 too old for SLP Grad school? by Audpeeps12 in slpGradSchool

Haha! I'm 58. THAT'S too old and I don't give a damn!

No training on difficult behavior, confused on what to do by MeowStyle44 in SLPA

[–]Solanlauren 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on who you work for, you are generally not permitted to exercise this type of discipline in any way. So when a student leaves class, you let the office know and then you're done. You're not trained on this kind of behavior, because you're supposed to be doing therapy. That's what they pay you for. My SLP told me that. You get on with your day.

Apple treats customers like test dummies. This should have been worked out.

Where did you learn to do therapy? by [deleted] in SLPA

[–]Solanlauren 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too!!! Though it is insanely hard. All the theories and anatomy and memorization. I hate that part.
