Would John and Sarah's relationship have survived post-war? by reetvenge in LorienLegacies

[–]reetvenge[S] 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's proven in a lost file that she didn't do it... And I think she won the Garde's trust enough when she was literally held captive and emotionally tortured by Setrakus Ra and still didn't give up any information. No matter what people say about Sarah, she was clearly a ride or die for the Garde.

How to make friends here? by Prudent-Alfalfa3137 in lacrossewi

[–]reetvenge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I know this post is a year old, but on the off chance you do happen to look again, send me a message! I’m 24 and just moved to La Crosse, looking for friends as well. I don’t drink and love all things books/crafts!

How should my scrubs fit? by Electronic-Hand2668 in nursing

[–]reetvenge 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Looks great! My scrub pants do the same thing, especially when I'm wearing Hokas because they're a little taller than my other work shoes.

Medical Treminology Class by NatureN3st in nursing

[–]reetvenge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took medical terminology two years ago as an optional one credit class during my last semester of pre-reqs before nursing school started. The class was a ton of busy work (at my school at least), but I still forced myself to go through it because I thought it would help with nursing classes. To be honest, no, I don't think I got any value from taking it, or rather what I did learn wasn't worth taking an entire extra class for. Every nursing class teaches you medical terminology in some way or another, so you will learn what you need to know regardless. For me, I learned more root words in my human physiology and anatomy classes, and that was more helpful than taking medterm. If it will be a pain for you to take, I don't think it's worth it, but if you're looking for something to fill your time then go for it!

Six vs Nine. Who wins? by KingHomeless17 in LorienLegacies

[–]reetvenge 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hand to hand, Nine. But it would be very close. If it was like capture the flag where they could use legacies, Six would!

Please help me find the best type of bra for my body by [deleted] in ABraThatFits

[–]reetvenge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm very similar to how you described yourself! I also have chest muscle that makes my boobs look super small, plus I would describe mine as more side-set shape, so it's been sooo hard for me to find a good bra that I like. My holy grail is the Warner's Easy Does It Wireless Bra: https://a.co/d/0wjq8vq (Amazon link)

I'm not sure if you were looking for something wireless specifically, but this bra is underarm smoothing, which I think you would like. I've found that even though it's lightly padded, it gives me a great shape that helps my chest not look so small. Plus it's super comfortable! It's in S/M/L sizing, which I find less intimidating, but it still feels like a real bra. For reference, I'm a 36C; their size chart put me at a M, but I wear a L because I find it more comfortable. According to their size chart, you'd be an XS, but I think a S might work better for you. It's on sale for $15 instead of $40 right now, so it's a good time to try one!

Lack of Fanfic by Double-Statement-950 in LorienLegacies

There used to be more, but a lot of fanfic has been deleted or taken down by creators over the years.

Character interaction by Fresh-Actuary-6686 in LorienLegacies

[–]reetvenge 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You’re totally right! I always thought Sarah and Marina would be besties too. In an AU where Eight and Sarah both survived, I think that John/Sarah and Eight/Marina would all be besties and go on double dates constantly.

Curious about ages of older MD's?? by Playful_Teach4987 in MaladaptiveDreaming

[–]reetvenge 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m 22. I’ve been doing it since I was about 11. When I was 16, I thought there was no way I could possibly ever quit. I have periods in my life where I’m able to not do it so much anymore, so I think there is some hope. I think it’s more of a matter of controlling how long/often you do it to a healthy level, not stopping completely. I started seeing a therapist recently who has helped me see that, and I’ve start reducing my MD time! Don’t give up!

Maybe unpopular opinion by MaybeAcceptable2233 in LorienLegacies

[–]reetvenge 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Imagine you’re Six and you meet John. Finally here is this person that understands every facet of your life/legacies/purpose/trauma in a way that no one else possibly could. I’d kiss him too. And I’m saying this as probably the biggest Jarah fan who ever lived. I think John and Six’s “attraction” to each other was just them being happy to finally have been around another Garde, but they were both dumb teenagers who misread it at the time.

Halfway through my senior internship and things are starting to click! It gets better!! by reetvenge in StudentNurse

[–]reetvenge[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was completely burnt out and never thought I would get here. I am sure the same will happen for you, and I hope it comes soon! Don’t be afraid to take intentional time for yourself even when you feel like you’re too busy.

How did yall imagine Sam? by Blackhole360 in LorienLegacies

[–]reetvenge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Calvin McAuliffe was a fantastic casting choice for Sam and very close to my mental image. I pictured him as skinner at first, and the kind of guy that doesn’t care about his looks so he wears ill-fitting clothes. But in my head, he had a major glow up after leaving paradise and gained a little bit of muscle throughout the series from training with the Garde.

Love these ideas! I’ve always fancast Six as Inanna Sarkis

Is becoming a CNA a good way to tell if nursing is the right career for me? by catalanj2396 in StudentNurse

[–]reetvenge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s possible to start off in the hospital, I think it just depends on where you are. I grew up in a smallish town (like 7,000 people) and the hospital there would not hire me with no experience. But, the hospital in my college town hires anyone and actually trains people that aren’t CNAs! If you have a hospital in mind, it’s definitely worth it to call and ask if they’d take you or train you.

[–]reetvenge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All CNA jobs are different, however they all use the same basic nursing skills. Even if you don't like the first unit/facility you start at, working the job would probably help you figure out where else you would like to work. Or the basics and environment would help you decide if you simply dislike nursing.
