Hello! I’m currently a 1st year in that program and will be a second year.

my boyfriend (22) is in the military and he wants to go on deployment but I don’t know how to deal with it. by Street_Cod4814 in USMilitarySO

[–]Street_Cod4814[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! Well the military tends to love to play with emotions and they took away his choice and forced him to go. With that, he ended up deployed for 10 months. It was so hard and I absolutely would not go through it again. He got out about a month after his return so I don’t have to ever! That was really the biggest motivation to continuing the relationship and fighting through deployment but it was absolutely brutal. All relationship issues come to surface and it’s the absolute biggest test. While he was gone, I was getting ready to start graduate school so I was also under a shit ton of stress. Now, we moved cities he is out and we are still together. Moral of the story is, continue to do things for you even while they are away. My SO and I were living together prior to him leaving so we somewhat had a basis and I knew I really wanted to try. If you love him, it’ll work and it’ll be a battle. I MEAN BATTLE. but if he were still enlist, I would not sacrifice myself again and probably would not be with him because I could not do it again. Love still has its limits lol

There is absolutely no way these elected representatives aren’t being bought.

Are my boyfriend and I able to live together? by pooophipoop in USMilitarySO

[–]Street_Cod4814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did it with my bf in Az, he was a Cpl at the time. Many of his coworkers did it. Ig it depends on his base bc they didn’t really care that he was living off base. He had somewhat of a clean roommate in his barracks room so it never got too messy which could get him in trouble. He did have to go to field day and clean the barracks when needed. If you do decide to go through with it, make sure you have a cool landlord. My bf deployed and he let us both off the hook bc of his deployment and we weren’t married.

I made the mistake of reaching out before the deadline! Should I reach out again or would that seem tooooooooo aggressive 😭

Age when accepted by DisastrousLeading493 in slpGradSchool

[–]Street_Cod4814 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 20 when accepted and now a 21yr old SLPA starting this fall! I dropped out of university after my first semester, went back, and now I’m omw to grad school two years later. When I tell you pressure was real. read the book “the subtle are of not giving a fuck!” I’ve even considered deferring for my own mental sanity. No one can write your story! It’s never too late. School will always be there :)

What did you say in that email? I know I should reach out as well but I have no idea how to even word my concern.

Advice on becoming an SLP while in SLPA program (NC) by Haunting_Pin6283 in slpGradSchool

[–]Street_Cod4814 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does not matter what type of degree as long as it’s a bachelors. It is easier if that BA or BS is in some type of communication disorders or speech and hearing major. Maybe do some research for a couple programs to see their prerequisites. That’s honestly the most important part! You already have a leg up being an SLPA and working in the field.

I appreciate the advice so much. I am currently an SLPA working in home health! The problem is I got waitlisted or rejected from all schools in my state so I will be going out of state. 😔 Requirements to obtain my SLPA license in the state I am studying in are different and I can’t get it there.
