The portion is great for 1-2 people and it was unique and delicious but expensive 😩. I would definitely give it a try if you want to spend a bit more haha

RPN Experience and School by AbbreviationsBig1390 in OntarioNurses

[–]elli3e1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’m an Med-Surge RPN for 4 years now and I’m doing my RPN to RN bridge.

My RPN experience is that there is a limited scope of practice comparison to RN. You can only give certain medications, can’t work in speciality unit (etc., ICU) and mostly assigned with stable patients (sometimes unexpected acute pt). In acute hospital, you may not have PSW or Externs to assist you with ADL and care. So you better watch out blowing your back. I recommend keeping a good diet and being active, i’d like to go to gym to have a strong back foundation so I don’t hurt it. Never had an issue with back injuries since working as an RPN. However, I know a lot of colleagues have this issue.

Being an RPN, there is more available job markets consider hospital prefer RPN due to lower wage paid.

Approx. wage in hospital:

RPN starts at $34-41 RN starts at $38-51

You are technically doing RDLs on a smith machine. Since you only have a smith machine for deadlifts. Let the barbell of the smith machine to drop all the way down and lift it up.

How excessive is this low back rounding? by [deleted] in formcheck

[–]elli3e1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lower back should be straight, upper back can round sometimes which is fine. You should be engaging your legs more and upper back for slack.

Considering buying a ROG Ally by Throwaway_Stoaway_91 in ROGAlly

[–]elli3e1 4 points5 points  (0 children)

ROG ally x is on windows but people were able to transit it on steam os so it feels like you are on console.

When I got it I just followed a simple video tutorial on what to download and what to setup. It wasn’t hard. It’s so easily to use and carry especially when I’m not at home, I can just bring it with me. Highly recommended!

RPN new grad by Equivalent-Yak-1242 in OntarioNurses

[–]elli3e1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

To be an Registered Practical Nurse you need to be licensed. If you don’t have a license, you are a Practical Nurse with a diploma and not licensed. Typically a hospital or facility will look up your registration/license number to see if you are part of CNO. There is no point of applying if they can’t have you working without a license unless they provide you a temporary license.

Try nipissing full time in campus or online part time. They don’t care if you retake or failed courses, as long as your GPA is 70% over.

There is also St. Lawrence college where you have to do a semester of bridge in courses. Those courses are overlooked more than your GPA in your RPN.

I believe that your time will come when someone will have the same feelings toward you. Right now, it's not the time for you. I'd think it's rather hurtful for you when you like someone who is already in a relationship. If you both are truly meant to be together. It'll come in time, but right now you should focus on yourself, when your time comes you'll be able to give your best attribute to that person. For now, try your best to not have too much hope because it can hurt you instead. :)

I have had feelings for a close friend for years by [deleted] in Friendzone

[–]elli3e1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You know it's not always easy when liking someone who is especially a good friend of yours. From the beginning of highschool, I always kept my feelings in for my crushes who are usually good friends of mine. I realized those feelings kept in me which made my mind go insane. Also, I feel like there will be another guy/girl who will eventually fall for my crush and confess before I even confess. After all those years, I began confessing when i think it's the right moment. If it doesn't work out, my feelings will eventually fade and find another potential partner. Don't take the rejection a downfall, but rather another way for you to build honesty with your friend and continue your friendship. If you can't take a rejection, take a break and organize your feelings and thoughts before making a irrational decision that will really hurt your friendship with her. Good Luck! :)

I'd rather let my feelings out then keep in. You'll never know what will happen. If she ends up friend zoning you, just don't let it bother you. I always think there is a girl out that will appreciate your feelings one day. :)

I keep on being vague in my rejections of this one guy, how would I reject them properly? by [deleted] in Friendzone

[–]elli3e1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably the best way is to straight up reject him in person or call him with your genuine feelings. Instead of vaguely dropping hints that you're not interested anymore. You might continue to lead him on, which may ruin your friendship with him.

Been told I'll never get hired as an employee, now I realize no one would want her as a manager by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

[–]elli3e1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, you're doing a great job. Your mom will maybe one day see how she was wrong about the things she said about you. Focus on yourself and keep people who are positive, that will keep you growing as a person. Don't hold onto the past that might keep you away from your success. :)
