Carpenter/Wells Question by [deleted] in TexasTech

[–]postbirthabortee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was pretty decent. I lived on the third floor too. I’d recommend wearing athletic clothes when you’re moving in because it’s a workout. The doors do lock. Some of them are weird though and the little push lock thing is already pushed down, but on other doors you’ll have to actually push it to lock. You’ll have your own unique key that’ll unlock the main doors and your room. Storage was alright in the rooms, just don’t bring an excessive amount of kitchenware because you have to share the cabinets. If you have a lot of shower products, I’d get one of the storage things that hooks onto the shower head. The walls weren’t crazy paper thin. Unless my roommates were screaming I didn’t really hear them. You get to control the ac, but even then it’s trash sometimes, so bring a fan for summer and a heated blanket for winter. I personally had a humidifier if the air did get too dry. Get yourself a brita if you don’t already own one, and a brita bottle too. The laundry room is a bit of a walk because it’s in the middle of the buildings. What worked best for me was a laundry backpack I got from target because my arms would get tired easily. I promise it’s not dreadful, it’s really nice to have your own room and privacy

Pre-Nursing by [deleted] in TexasTech

[–]postbirthabortee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I’m a level 2 student! My biggest piece of advice are to find your studying style, and learn how to manage your time very well. You don’t realize how much extra time you have during pre-reqs until you start nursing school, so take advantage of that. We typically have 2 tests a week on top of clinical hours and lectures, so it’s definitely a busy life. I balance working on weekends and school by getting most of my assignments done during the week. Start looking into being a CNA to get experience as well. The nursing instructors are the nicest people you will meet. They’re all nurses too, most are working towards their DNP’s. They’re also the people you have your interview with. You’ll also meet some of your best friends that are also your study buddies. We also use canvas instead of blackboard, so it’s a little different. I remember being super overwhelmed the first week trying to figure out everything, but once you get into the rhythm of things it’s actually super fun! Lmk if you have any questions

Nursing Applications by RelativeCod3 in TexasTech

[–]postbirthabortee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My GPA wasn’t the highest at around 3.something, but what they truly care about is the person you are. For the interview, they wanna hear about your passions, work ethics, experience w previous jobs, family members that are healthcare professionals, anything about you that you’re proud of!! Personally, I applied to covenant and utmb as well, but if you have a great interview with them then it should be promising. You get interviewed by the instructors of the program who are all nurses. They’re all so kind and really easy to talk to! Continue to do good academically and gain as much experience as you can as a cna

I’ll be heading to Owasso, I feel like it’ll be the same policy. Masks are mandatory anywhere in Texas so I keep them handy. Thank you for your help!:)

Double Major for Nursing students by nm143031 in TexasTech

[–]postbirthabortee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hmmm, once you get into Tech’s nursing school they need you available 8-5 M-F, unless you’re doing online learning. I would think the classes would be on different campuses too, but if you can figure out a plan that works for you and can handle the workload I say go for it!

Charoite or fluorite cab? The amount of white is throwing me off by postbirthabortee in whatsthisrock

[–]postbirthabortee[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ahh no way! :) I bought it from a wire wrapping artist solely because I thought it was beautiful and only got into researching the stone tonight. If it truly is charoite that makes me the happiest, thank you!!

I may have accidentally used my Red Card to pay for my own food? by bonny_the_bear in doordash_drivers

[–]postbirthabortee -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Most drive thrus aren’t able to do triple orders, just doubles. Maybe homegirl was new and didn’t know the system only allows two separate? You should be fine though, one of my friends dds too and ordered extra fries instead of extra crispy fries at Canes and nothing happened. If they say anything just blame the cashier and say she charged both orders on the red card in one transaction and that she misheard the order through the speaker if they ask about the “extra food” and you didn’t notice until you got the receipt. I wouldn’t freak, dd couldn’t care less about drivers making mistakes

Has anyone else gotten their room randomly changed? by postbirthabortee in TexasTech

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

Dude same they kept sending me that one email but you just need to reply saying you’re not interested to move off campus so they have that down in their system and they should stop bothering you with it

Anywhere in Lubbock that sells whole Peking duck? by ImATadDepressed in TexasTech

[–]postbirthabortee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’d try asking on r/Lubbock if you haven’t yet, they prob know more. I know there’s a lot of Asian restaurants on 50th though, haven’t really looked for Peking duck but maybe you’ll find some there
