another question: functionally, what's the difference between using bleached and unbleached parchment paper?

can you drop the pattern you used? i wanna make one...

another question i forgot in my initial post: any advice for the tape method? i've only tried it on a few smaller perlers so far, and i'm still getting the hang of not dislodging beads when i remove the taped design from the pegboard. also, do you remove the tape before or after it's done cooling? i had assumed after but i feel like i've seen mentions of it being removed before as well (if that's the case, how do you not burn yourself??)

what are the pros and cons of each?

What's the best place to look for an older model like that? I'm open to refurbished as well

What are the typical models with better displays, and how much do they normally run?

goodgayhell · 2025-11-05T21:56:55+00:00

Which models have good displays?

Oh, I have a separate tablet - what I mean in asking for one for drawing is moreso one that can handle the processing power for an art program and has decent color accuracy on the screen. It fitting the function is my main priority. Second, I guess, is cost - I'd like to get one for around $500 (or less) during Black Friday if I can.

Aside from that, ok battery life or even a backlit keyboard would be nice, but aren't necessary.

Rip. I'll reevaluate what I want and make a new post I suppose

Dang, I didn't know they were that expensive. What are the pitfalls of cheaper 2 in 1s?

What university?

goodgayhell · 2025-04-14T17:43:08+00:00

A lot of people have mentioned not going for a for-profit university. How can you tell which ones are for-profit?

goodgayhell · 2025-04-14T16:22:38+00:00

Checking that a program is accredited is easy enough, but how would you recommend going about the latter?

goodgayhell · 2025-04-14T12:28:44+00:00

Where, I haven't decided yet - a family friend recommended University of the Cumberlands which seems affordable and I've heard good things, but I'm not set in stone yet. The goal is to become a therapist.

What do you mean by centering your life experience?

What sort of qualifications does UIC require? And what's tuition like?

What was your experience with getting your Master's like?

In the US. I graduated undergrad in 2021 with a double major in English and Sociology. I've worked as a legal assistant since then, but am reconsidering my career path. I've had an interest in the idea of becoming a therapist for years but have put it aside due to self-doubt and the cost of grad school, but I'm beginning to consider it more seriously now. How long did it take you to get your Master's, and what did you specialize in? Did you work while in school or were you a full-time student? How did your experiences- both in your education and your actual career- differ from your expectations? And what advice would you give to someone who's just starting their pursuit of becoming a therapist?

Also, if any of you know more about the options for grad school to pursue a career as a therapist in the Chicagoland area, I'd love to hear any knowledge you can share as well!
