3 weeks and 2054 questions later.

The gym has been put on the back burner the last week and a half from just waking up, eating practice exams and questions until I go to bed at night. I took my NCLEX this morning and been feeling sick to my stomach ever since. Uggh, the anticipation of the waiting game. I won’t find out if I pass until another day or two (hopefully). I felt good about it, but it’s one of those things where it ‘ain’t official until it’s official’ on the Board of Nursing website.

Until then, I’m back in the lab and instead of focusing on review videos and listening to Mark Klimek or Mike Linares talk, I can finally throw on some J.Cole and just escape.

I’m officially back, baby.

Apparently I'm getting another practicum student from mid-May to the beginning of August which should be interesting. Like they trust me to basically do a very long job interview and train this person. ME of all people lol

Literally the only way I could comprehend what the frick my schedule is for school next week 😅 I kept looking at the lists and charts for my schedule and only had a vague idea of when I needed to be in which class and which one was a lecture or a lab, but after making a happy little flow chart I feel like I confidently know where I'm supposed to be and when! 😁 Adding the color helped even more, not gonna lie. 😶‍🌫️

house md season 2 (haven’t even gotten halfway) now i’m thinking about a cast x reader who is a DNP and the only nurse that house respects…

oversees cases in her specialty while teaching at the university & house jokingly calls her “doc” instead of “nurse” because “you went through eight years of school just to be called ‘miss’ instead of ‘dr?’” even though reader tells him “i’m only doctor in the academic world, i wouldn’t want to be confused with your kind…no offense, dr. cameron”

& they all fw her because she’s like the only person besides stacy and cuddy who can fire back at house…wilson is my #1 (#i can fix him) so maybe it would eventually become a reader x wilson?

edit: for context i’m a BSN student w/an interest in going into psych so i like to imagine lots of discussions with cameron about concepts like empathy, psych illnesses…maybe reader is like cameron where she kinda believes in the inherent goodness of people despite what she’s seen in patients so this leads to some clashing with the others who definitely are a lot more jaded

i can imagine a “feature” ep where reader’s brought in for a differential regarding a psych patient. similar to the one with the lady with munchausen’s, cameron especially kinda has this predisposition to write the patient off as crazy even though there’s definitely something physically wrong, and this leads to a lot of conflict between reader and the main cast…

[the-ace-with-spades]

I have the urge to write a seven-season-long medical drama, so here is a concept for Top Gun Hospital AU with ER hate-to-love hangster AU that no one asked for.

as a warning: this is a bit incohesive and silly

All the aviators are doctors and all the WSOs are nurses. With the exception of Bradley (but there’s an explanation for it).

Mav — cardiothoracic surgeon; Ice — former neurosurgeon and Chief of Surgery, current Head of Patient and Medical Services (so, entirely admin). I imagine they have the same kind of relationship as House and Cuddy in this, including Ice keeping an entire legal team for Mav’s unconventional practice methods. They've met during med school and had been rivals up until they both finished general surgery residency. Slider is an OR nurse turned anesthesia nurse. Goose was an ER nurse and met Mav during his rotation as a med student and died after an incident in the ER during Mav’s residency (that was the moment he switched from emergency medicine to surgery).

Phoenix — emergency, but she managed the impossible (like Mav) and switched from obgyn residency after the first year (only chose obgyn in the first place because of her mom, a renowned obgyn in Oregon), she's still really passionate about the obgyn field but didn't enjoy the work enough to do it for the rest of her life; Javy — general surgery; Payback — emergency with sub-spec in pediatrics; Friz — respiratory medicine; Omaha — oncology; Yale — ortho surgery.

Bob — a former OBGYN nurse, left because of a toxic work environment, working in the ER six months now, Phoenix's favorite nurse now, duh; Fanboy — started in peds oncology, had to switch because it was too hard on him mentally and is now peds emergency; Halo — started as a palliative care nurse, switched to oncology after a few years; Harvard — OR nurse, switched from general team to ortho

Hangman is the new trauma surgeon starting in their ER. Born and raised on a ranch, was expected to take over the ranch but never wanted to. Thankfully, he had too perfect grades to not send him to college — his parents wanted him to be a vet, which obviously didn’t happen, so he could stay close to the family business. He moved to California for his MD. He has terrible bedside manners with patients and patients’ family, but is surprisingly decent with kids, has lost respect for nurses sometime during his first residency year, and had a terrible case of Ego hit him during his trauma surg fellowship.

Now, about Rooster:

Bradley got into a pre-med program, Mav (who had set up Bradley’s college fund) said he’s not going to pay for it since he doesn’t want Bradley to be a doctor (long hours, lack of work-life balance, burnout, high stress, etc. It was more complicated because Mav still has the Goose trauma). So they had the fallout, Bradley moved out and deferred college to find a way to pay for it and, wanting to gather hospital experience, started working as a CNA in Peds ICU at a children’s hospital which accidentally was having a new CNA intake at the time. He liked it, actually loved it, and started hesitating whether he should continue with pre-med and be like Mav or go for nursing, like his dad. Year after, he got an offer from the hospital that said hey, we’ll fund some of your BSN as long as you work for us while you study and then work for us for another four years after getting your license. So he became a nurse, got certified as peds nurse after working two years in PICU and after another three, switched to the Pediatric Rapid Response Team, where he stayed for another two years before getting a spot as a senior nurse in adult/peds ER in a different hospital.

His relation to Mav and Ice only came to light a few months after the hiring process, as Bradley didn’t even know they worked there when he applied and it’s still a hash-hash topic in the ER. He’s been in the ER for almost three years now and has become an unofficial second-in-command as one of the few with substantial experience.

I imagine he’s definitely one the best nurses you could have as a patient — he’s honest but in an empathetic way, he’s worked in the most demanding environments with the most complex patients (ICU and RRT), he’s skilled and experienced in most procedures. Because he is one of the few male nurses, he’s the one dealing with inappropriate patients, aggressive patients, patients that need restraint, frequent flyers, etc. and he genuinely doesn’t mind — he is the perfect mix of calm and firm that makes him very reliable in most difficult situations. He is absolutely most reassuring and guiding with new stuff, be it new nurses or med students that don’t know what’s happening, and he doesn’t judge. It does help, too, that he was partially raised by two very cocksure surgeons and therefore knows how to deal with doctors that turned a bit too arrogant.

Before I go to the hangster part of this shit, I want y’all to know it all started because I found this Rooster-coded scrubs:

I imagine that he buys most of his scrubs since the work-issued scrubs don’t fit well on men (most unisex ones are very much just female fit stamped with unisex label) and peds nurses can have lots of cute ones so the kids feel less nervous around them

Also, this is a warning that yes, Bradley is trans in this scenario, too, because I said so. It's relevant to a few scenes, I think?? and there's tw for transphobic OC

Now, a bunch of scenarios I can see for this AU:

On the first day at his new workplace, Jake makes a reputation for himself. He confuses Nat, in her hospital-issued scrubs and with her doctor tag clearly on display, for a nurse and literally talks over her in front of a patient. Same thing happens with Billy because he’s Filipino and there is a large number of Filipino nurses everywhere and he’s stereotyping. Then he makes another patient’s parents agitated. This is when he meets Bradley — he takes over to talk to the parents and calm them down before it can escalate, basically shushing Jake out of the room. Jake doesn’t clock he’s a nurse at first — he’s a big, very fit, very well-built, very handsome dude with a questionable mustache who looks comical in a pastel pink scrub top with a teddy bear pattern and a matching headband on his forehead, but also the sheer shock of how different to all the nurses he looks gives Jake a pause  — so he doesn’t say anything even if it pisses him off a nurse just forced him out of the room.

*

It starts innocently with Bradley though — Bradley comes up and asks, “Jake, can you put the narcotics order into the system for Lily?” and Jake scoffs and corrects, “Doctor,” tapping his full tag with Dr. Jacob Seresin.

Bradley, as the nurse’s tag says, raises an eyebrow and says, “Doctor Jake, can you put the narcotics order for Lily?”  Natasha, standing behind him, snorts. Jake doesn’t even have the time to tell him off because he’s already gone when his brain processes.

*

Natasha drops off a patient on him — a taxi driver who had a stroke while driving and had been in a car accident, that had been thrombolysed but might need emergency surgery because of a suspected GI bleed. He’s stable, so they're going to check if he can be admitted to neurosurg and wait for his turn there or if Jake will need to take over before that.

Bradley hands him a tablet the minute he walks into the room.

“What’s that?”

“Results,” he supplies before going back to setting up an oxygen cylinder at the bottom of the bed.

“I didn’t order that,” he notes. The blood and urine panels are what he would order with suspected operable GI bleed but he’s barely looked at the patient’s case before he walked in there.

“I did,” Bradley tells him as he switches the oxygen from the wall socket to the tank supply. “Faster this way.”

“No,” Jake says, blood boiling. “You do exactly what I tell you to do and only that.”

Natasha raises her eyebrows, high on her forehead. Bradley doesn’t hesitate — waves on Bob from behind the glass wall and they both grab each side of the bed.

“I supposed you want to put the CT order yourself then,” Bradley says as Bob takes the small back monitor and attaches it to the frame. He steps on the bed brake and rolls out the bed, straight into Jake and Nat, fast enough that he moves out of the way on instinct. “Better do it fast because it’s free now and I’m going.” *

“Did you see that? Who the heck does he think he is?” Jake asks Nat.

“Better put that CT scan order,” is all Natasha replies as she walks away.

*

It’s Reuben’s patient, an eleven years old boy with blunt trauma, and Jake makes a verbal order to Bradshaw, who is the boy’s nurse. “I understand but I think that—” and Jake goes, “If I want your opinion, I’ll ask for it.”

The whole room gets quiet and everyone looks to him — Reuben, Mickey, and the technician are wide-eyed.

Bradley just says, “Alright,” in a perfectly leveled voice and leaves the room.

 Mickey is not making eye contact as he quips under his nose, on his way out of the room, “You do realize he basically runs this ER, right? You’re making your life a lot harder.”

*

Jake orders IV fluids for one of his patients which is also in Rooster’s section that day and he bleeps the order info to Rooster. Fifteen minutes later he sees that it hasn’t been filled and is like, hah, I knew there is a reason I hate that guy. Finds him when he passes Jake in the corridor and is like, “I want you to start the IV for room 7. Now,” and Rooster  just tells him, “No, do it yourself or find someone else.” 

They have a little back and forth as Jake follows him down the corridor which ends with another, “No.”

There’s still no charge nurse in the ER (she’s on medical leave that will most likely end with her leaving employment, from what Jake gathers) so he makes a datix and the ER nurse manager (Warlock) following up is apprehensive because obviously, he knows Bradley, and hears about what actually happened — Bradley was getting an igel for a toddler from the peds side and deemed it more important than starting a bag of saline to bust someone's blood pressure.

Jake feels like an idiot.

*

Jake and Reuben are charting next to each other and Reuben gets bleeped his patient’s lab results. Jake, who is also waiting for lab results, complains about how he sent a pod to the lab before Reuben. Reuben just gives him a look and says, “Yeah, that’s because I asked Bradley to put my request in.”

And Jake is like, “What does he have to do with anything?”

Reuben looks at him like he’s dumb and says, “He has more sway with the lab,” and walks away with his tablet.

*

Javy is doing a consult for Nat and stops to chat to Jake (they know each other from residency days) and Bradley comes by and says, “Maggie’s becoming hypotensive again,” and Javy observes as Jake looks at the nurse that came, gives him a very long, very detailed look and licks his lips.

He manages to think Oh before Jake asks, “Maggie?”

The nurse looks seconds from rolling his eyes. “Mrs. Lawrence? Room 5?” 

“That's Margaret.”

“She prefers Maggie.”

And it goes on, with Jake standing there rigid, puffing up his chest and cocking his hip out. “Did you start the fluids?”

“Finshed already.”

“Start another bag.”

The nurse looks unimpressed and instead of confirming says, slowly, like he’s talking to a child, “Her fluid balance is positive. She’s usually on pressors.” Jake’s face gets red and he goes, “Then put an order for her.”

It’s kind of funny to observe and to be fair, the nurse does give Jake a minute to go over what he said, leaning his elbow on the counter, eyebrows raised, before he points out, in that damn slow, unimpressed tone, “I can't put orders for things like pressors."

He hands Jake the closest tablet and starts walking away.

Jake calls after him. "What, you're not even going to draft it for me?"

He doesn't even turn around and Javy is silently shaking from the laughter he's holding in, "I thought I wasn't allowed to do that, doctor."

*

Mav comes down to the ER to talk to Rooster on a slower day — about how they’re about to sponsor a new CRNA for the cardiothoracic surg unit and maybe he could put a good word for their development team for Bradley and yada yada.

It happens like that: Mav comes down, Bradley is charting next to the monitors station, Jake is going over a scan on the opposite side when The Dr. Mitchell himself comes down and stops next to Bradley. He gives Bradley and his pink Paw Patrol scrubs a look and clears his throat a couple of times before Bradley raises his gaze toward him, turning away a second later and ignoring him again.

Jake is freaking out — this is The Dr. Mitchell and one of the reasons Jake wanted to work in this exact hospital, along with the rumored to-be-announced cardiothoracic surg fellowship under Dr. Mitchell he had his eyes on. He’s been thinking about how to make contact with Dr. Mitchell since he started in the ER and here he is, telling unresponsive Bradshaw, “I heard you’re looking to go back for your Master’s in the near future.” Bradshaw doesn’t say anything and Dr. Mitchell adds, “We have a CRNA development spot for—” and Bradley tells him, not turning away from the screen, “I’m not an OR nurse,” and then taps his card on the computer’s reader to log out and walks away.

Dr. Mitchell is a fucking legend, a VIP of this hospital, so Jake just stands there, contemplating how the heck Bradshaw could do that and hears him mumbling under his breath, “Really slick, Mav,” and jumps on the opportunity to say, “I’ll be talking to his supervisor about this, his attitude is unacceptable, Dr. Mitchell.”

And Dr. Mitchell turns to him, raises an eyebrow and asks, “Excuse me?” 

“The nurse you were talking to. He might be senior in here but his attitude’s been horrible and I’ll personally step in. This won’t happen again.”

Dr. Mitchell gives him a look before slowly saying, “I suggest you mind your own business, Dr. Seresin,” and walks away.

Nat is silently laughing a few feet away and Jake asks her what’s so funny. His heart dead-ass stops when she says, “You do know Dr. Mitchell is Bradley’s dad, right? They might not be on the best of terms but that’s still his son.” And Jake has the urge to bang his head on the keyboard in front of him. 

* 

TW for transphobia.

There’s a new nurse practitioner to be (graduated, about to get her cert) that's rumored to be a candidate for the charge nurse position. Izzy. She’s quite young for that, younger than Bradley for sure, must have barely worked in the clinical area before going for her Master’s. Jake doesn’t know if it’s on purpose but the nurse manager and Bradley keep on putting her in his section.

She’s—well, she’s a bit too in his face. She agrees with everything Jake says and doesn’t roll his eyes at him, which is boring, and she’s, for an NP, not that knowledgeable. She doesn’t argue with him, which is a change, and Jake starts to hate it after about five hours. Her voice is saccharine sweet, she keeps on standing a bit too close to him at all times, and she’s decent with patients, but she keeps on asking him about the smallest of things.

Jake’s section is less busy, usually, since he deals primarily with trauma in the ER, but she never bounces off to help others when she is free, like Bradley did. She’s clinging to his section, a little bit, and he doesn’t get why. It’s not like he is any nicer to her than to Bradley or any other nurse.

She is busy taking bloods and Bradley finds him when he has a second alone, finally, and enlightens him about why.

“If you don’t believe me, you can just ask any other nurse. Everyone noticed.”

“If you really think that then why do you keep putting her in my sections?”

“I don’t. She’s senior as an NP, she’s taken over allocation from me now.”

Jake’s mind only focuses on one detail. “You were allocating yourself to my sections?”

“Only because no one wants to work with you and because I’m actually certified in trauma.” That makes sense. It’s not like Bradley would work with him voluntarily. “Look, all I’m saying, you watch out — you fool around with her and then reject her and she’s going to HR. I know the type.”

“The type?”

“You know, the girl that thought she’ll become a nurse, snag a rich doctor and never work again? Well, it’s not always women, there are guys who do that too, but in this case, she’s very much the type.”

“And you think she’s trying to—snag me?”

“She’s certainly not going after the residents that are getting paid twelve bucks an hour or Reuben who is married,” he points out. Which, again, fair, even if he didn’t know Reuben is married prior to this strange conversation.

Jake stares at him, processing, until he blurts out, “I’m gay.”

“Then you’ve got nothing to worry about,” Bradley says after a second, eyes barely noticeably a bit wider, before he walks away.

“Was he bothering you, doctor?”

She calls him doctor, always, and it honestly makes him grit his teeth. Now even more. He’s got a bad feeling about it.

It gets confirmed later when Jake is taking care of a six-year-old girl who had fallen down the stairs. She’s dehydrated and Izzy’s just tried to put a cannula on her three times before Jake told her to grab the bedside ultrasound and not make the girl cry even more.

Bradley passes by the room and Jake’s learned that he can’t leave a distressed child alone, so he comes in and gets the parents and the girl relaxed. He’s about to go in and tell him to leave it alone until Izzy brings the ultrasound when Nat grabs him by the arm and tells him, “He was in a Rapid Response Team, I’m pretty sure he can put a cannula in blind. Just let him do it.”

And he does let him. Watches, expecting the girl to burst into tears at any moment but she never does. Bradley’s literally been in the room for less than ten minutes and it��s all back to calmness.

Izzy comes back with the ultrasound. It should not have taken her so long to grab it. “What is he doing there? That's my patient.”

"He said he can put the IV line without the ultrasound.” Well, Nat said so. Jake can’t believe he’s saying but, “He’s a peds nurse, he’ll be fine.”

“I’m sure the girl's parents wouldn’t want him anywhere near her.”

This sets alarm bells in Jake’s head. “What do you mean?”

"People like him shouldn't be around kids," she says, to his horror. She leans in, way closer than needed, and conspiringly whispers, "Dr. Seresin, haven't you known that he is, you know, a she in disguise?"

He’s dumbstruck. "I'm sorry?"

"He's actually a woman, just pretending to be a man because he's mentally—You're the doctor, I'm sure you know better than I how the brains of people like them work. He shouldn't be around that girl, is what I'm saying. I certainly wouldn't like him around my child, if I had one."

Jake didn’t know this about Bradley but he understands what she means, even with how awful she is about it. This, however, should not be a piece of information thrown around in public if Bradley didn't wish to disclose it, and certainly not in such a manner. "And how do you know that, exactly?"

"Nurses share a locker room, it's not hard to notice how she, you know, mutilated herself."

Jake doesn’t say anything out loud but mentally he is preparing datix report in his head. He catches the ER’s nurse manager before he goes home, too, because that’s some shit he doesn’t stand for. He might be an asshole but he’s not a bigot.

Next time he comes to work, Bradley is back in his section and Izzy is no longer employed.

“Thanks,” Bradley says, when they’re at the station, next to each other, in a relatively slow moment. “If I went on my own, we’d have a weeks-long investigation that would probably end with her or me moving to a different unit.”

“She said this shit to your face?”

“Kept calling me she in front of patients,” Bradley admits after a moment. “I think most of them thought they misheard but—I knew.”

“Well, good riddance then.”

Bradley snorts, but he’s looking down at the tablet in his hands, smiling, and wow, the apples of his cheeks are so round and his eyes so bright and Jake can't breathe for a second.

---

(there might be a second part coming because I meant seven-season-long medical drama literally-- including Jake realizing he's an idiot, Mavdad drama, Jake having his hands inside Bradley (in the literal, surgical sense) and jealousy that could rival the McDreamy/Dr. Grey drama)

my study playlist

my studying-ish playlist

about me:

i’m a 21 year old BSN student. it’s a major goal of mine to achieve mastery in a subject in this lifetime. i chose nursing to reach this goal with long, careful consideration! nursing not only allows me to learn the science of the body through and through, but also gives me knowledge i can put into practice—what’s theory without application?

studying is my flow state. it hits all 5 bases of flow—curiosity, passion, serving others, motivation to achieve mastery, and autonomy to pursue this path. it’s cozy to study and satisfying to become more knowledgeable in such an important field.

i like to see it like a tool for self mastery, kind of like how shaolin monks would use martial arts as a tool for self mastery. it takes discipline AND the foundation of a holistically healthy, balanced lifestyle.

excited to join this journey!

[medstudentblues]

Hi!! I’m a BSN nursing student. I love your blog. What kind of nurse are you?

hi there! i was an operating room nurse (i used to love love scrubbing in surgeries!).

[unanswered-stars]

From the Writer's Question Game thingy :> 🍓🌵🧃🪐🍬🔪🥐🏜️☁️🌸🧩

Ho! I put so many lol. I warned you, I'm nosy xD.

Ahhh thank you so many I hope my answers are sufficient!

🍓 - I must credit @acourtofladydeath and her fic All Things End for bringing me to fanfiction in the first place. I read that fic multiple times before I was able to read anything else. This is not fanfiction it is life changing and that is simply a fact.

Quickly fell into the rabbit hole of Azris on ao3 and came across @the-moth-writes Heaven Help The Fool Who Falls in Love and I simply could not get it out of my head and had commented “oh it would be so fun if you …..” and it wasn’t till I was reading @futurehunt A Court of Shadows and Ash and I finally made an account so I could properly comment and interact and I was still stuck on the story idea I had, so I reached out to @the-moth-writes and asked if I could continue her story to which she graciously said yes.

Once I started writing I just couldn’t stop. I was always a big reader and writer growing up and was intending to major in English in college but I had a terrible professor when I was in a college class duel enrolled as a high school student and they absolutely tore my writing apart and I instead got a degree in Religious Studies and BSN. I have not written anything for fun until now and I am so sad that I did not start sooner but I am so happy to be writing again.

🌵 - so all of the playlists that I listen to are self made on my personal Spotify so I don’t want to share those but I will say my 4yo is obsessed with @chunkypossum playlist for Between Us. The amount of dance shows I have watched to this playlist at this point are innumerable.

🧃I was a antapartal/postpartum (pregnant/after you have your baby) nurse and aside from my children it is what I am truly most passionate about in life and I could talk all things pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and home birth for days 👀

🪐 1. Getting my joy back for writing

2. This is going to sound so silly but my kids have been so cool recently just learning so many new skills and just love watching them explore the world and become their own little person.

3. My sister will be back stateside in a few weeks and I am thrilled to have her living by me again!

🍬 - ahhh Rhys where to start with this guy. @jules-writes-stories honestly said it really well here. Half of the CoN gets killed immediately under Amarantha’s reign and then on his return to the Hewn City for the first time post occupation that is how he decided to approach it? Enough said. He’s been HL for at least 200years and I feel like he has nothing to show for it. That is not even touching on the infantalization and sexualization of Feyre. I could write paragraphs on this man but I shan’t waste my breath.

If you want to see me hot take on Majda look here

🔪 - fanfic: how large can a treehouse be while also being structurally sound. This then turned into a multiple day rabbit hole of looking through photos of the most magical treehouse in the world.

Nursing school pt patho paper: cockroach in vagina. I needed to know how many other times this happened and that I wasn’t the only one scarred by this. 🤢

🥐 - Brennan from Game Changer/Dimension 20 monologuing abut literally anything. Sauron but it’s Trump is probably my personal fav.

🏜️ - I talked about this is my previous two posts and this one is getting long 🙃

☁️ - sometimes I make up stories for my kids as bedtime and bring in a little realism and my oldest was asking me about wishing on stars and I said something along the line that sometimes the stars will answer you back and answer your wish and sometimes your wishes go unanswered. Not because one wish is better than another but sometime we just have to figure out our wishes on our own journey. We now have a little story about what happens to all the stars of unanswered wishes = Unanswered Stars

🌸 - I do not have any currently but we had many cats and dogs growing up. Truth be told I actually do not like pets. I know I know please don’t burn me. I’m allergic to dogs and cats, they both cause my chronic migraines to flare up. I also killed my two pet fish I owned growing up. Both accidentally. One because I over fed it and the other because we went on vacation and I forget to have someone feed it so it starved…

I know I’m the worst I’m sorry.

I would get an outside pet should my children ask.

🧩 - I answered this one here

Thank you so much for sending in these questions! I love answering all of these. If you want to join, the list of questions can be found here!

Meet my OC: Mizuno Sayuri

「水の小百合」

Check this out too!

OC!Sayuri x Bayverse!Leo HCs

Face claim: Moe the Kimono Mom

Age: 21

Sex: F

Race: Asian

Physical Description: 5”2, fair-colored skin, black medium length hair with curtain bangs, pale grey-blue eyes, with a theatrical romantic body type.

Hobbies: Scrapbooking, Cooking, Karate

Mood Board and Playlist inserted here

Kibbe’s Theatrical Body Type: Soft Gamine

Soft and voluptuous but petite.

Hourglass shape with soft, fleshy limbs.

Bone structure is small and delicate with slightly sharp edges (shoulders, jawline, cheekbones, or nose). Small hands and feet.

Large eyes, full luscious lips, soft cheeks.

Source: theconceptwardrobe.com

Family Background: The Mizunos are an old family from Kyoto. Since the time of the samurai, the Mizunos had a reputation as being custodians of the renowned Healing House and the Healing Springs. For years, the Mizunos have taken in every stranger that has sought sanctuary regardless of who they were or where they came from.

Parents: Sayuri was born to Mizuno Mitsuha (a trained Geisha) and Yamato Koichi (a kendo teacher and former athlete). Koichi upped and left his family when Sayuri was only 8-years-old. For as long that Sayuri has known him, he was distant from her and her mother, constantly dedicating his time and effort to his craft and his students. Since then, her surname was changed to Mizuno. After her father’s abandonment Sayuri’s mother, Mitsuha, fell into a deep and long depression. Mitsuha would often be in her room, staring blankly into space, rarely lucid enough to hold a conversation for more than five minutes. When Sayuri was 15, she found her mother dead, her wrists slit open in a bathtub full of water.

Siblings: Sayuri has a brother named Hiro. He is older than her by five years. Hiro is a karate athlete with an interest in coding and information technology. Hiro is naturally caring of his sister, and Sayuri adores her big brother immensely. Their common point of conflict is their father. While Sayuri despised him for what he did to their mother, Hiro still holds his father in high esteem.

Childhood: Sayuri and Hiro were raised together by their grandparents, Mizuno Hitoha and Mizuno Kaoru. Sayuri was trained by her grandmother in the art of healing that the Mizunos are reputed to be the bearer of. Her grandmother also trained her in etiquette, cooking, farming, traditional dance, and shamisen. In addition to all the traditional Japanese classes she was taking, Sayuri also frequently took karate lessons in her grandfather’s dojo and competed all over Japan. Hitoha was the strict and firm guardian to her grandchildren, while Kaoru was fun-loving and mischievous.

Present: After finishing a general education degree in Japan, Sayuri received news that she and her brother were approved for citizenship in the US. Apparently, their father had petitioned them years ago before his untimely death. Sayuri and Hiro initially went to America to expand their horizons and return to Japan. That is until Sayuri considered taking an accelerated RN BSN program in New York and Hiro took up work as a karate instructor in California. Sayuri plans to finish her education, gain experience, and return home to inherit the Healing House.

Sayuri’s Diagnosis: Two years before Sayuri came to America, she competed in what she didn’t know to be her last karate competition. A direct hit in the chest was all that it took to send her to the hospital, where the doctors found out that she had a hole in heart, most likely having been there since the day she was born.

hihi I'm an emt student if we team up I can help with the questionable medical advice thing <333 my scope of practice is pretty limited but I can put the other mutuals on oxygen (high or low flow!!), maybe listen to their lung sound? take their blood pressure?

woh I'm a nursing student (BSN/RN, 3rd of 4 years)!!! Just 2 unlicensed medical professionals giving questionable medical advice and even more questionable medical interventions.

[theholidayslingerlikebadperfume]

if you're thinking of becoming a nurse, i highly recommend during an ADN program over BSN for several reasons

#1) the only difference between ADN and BSN are leadership courses (and maybe a couple of non-nursing grad requirements like organic chemistry).

#2) it's the most cost-effective route because you can go to a community college and get out in like 2 years (1 year is usually for pre-reqs so 3 years total actually) and you practice as an RN immediately after ADN school. however, you're only allowed to apply to "nursing student" positions for HALF the money as an BSN student after two years of study (so basically, you'd be working as a nurse for half the money and without benefits since those positions are half-time).

#3) most hospitals will pay for you to go back to school anyways AND most ADN-to-BSN programs are online and can be completed within 12 months. because again, they're just leadership courses and there are no clinicals involved.

#4) there is no additional testing required. there is no special license for BSNs to obtain and so therefore there is no reason to put off your ability to work and earn a living for 2 additional years just to learn how to be a nursing leader before you have any on site experience to begin with.

#5) ADN nurses have a better reputation than BSN nurses do, especially for new grad positions, at most hospitals. this is because ADN programs are much more clinical heavy in general and this is why ADN programs tend to be more competitive than BSN programs are.

Apply Spouse Visa before of 21st Jan or Jan 21

The proposed changes to the Spouse Open Work Permit policy are no longer just a proposal, they have now become official policy. Starting January 21, 2025, significant changes will be implemented regarding Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) applications and extension applications.

This is a major and impactful update that will affect many individuals. If you were planning to apply or extend your spouse’s open work permit, it’s crucial to stay informed and prepared. The new policy brings about a series of important adjustments that could impact your application process and eligibility.

As an immigration firm dedicated to providing up-to-date information and expert guidance, Globexa Immigration will continue to monitor any further changes and provide insights to help you navigate the new rules.

Just one week ago, we shared an update regarding the proposed changes to the Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP). At that time, it was still a proposal, and we advised you to relax until it became an official policy. Well, the wait is over, the proposed changes have now officially become policy. As of January 21, 2025, there are major changes to the SOWP application process that you should be aware of.

1.1 What Does This Mean for You?

Starting from January 21, 2025, primary applicants (whether they are students or on work permits in Canada) will need to meet specific requirements to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit. One of the key changes is the minimum education requirement for the primary applicant’s spouse to qualify for a work permit.

To be eligible, the primary applicant must have completed a 16-month Master’s degree, or they must be enrolled in a doctoral program. Additionally, certain specific bachelor’s degree programs are now eligible, including:

Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS, DMD)

Bachelor of Law or Juris Doctor (LLB, JD, BCL)

Doctor of Medicine (MD)

Doctor of Optometry (OD)

Pharmacy (PharmD, BS, BSc, BPharm)

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM)

Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN, BSN)

Bachelor of Nursing Science (BNSc)

Bachelor of Nursing (BN)

Bachelor of Education (BEd)

Bachelor of Engineering (BEng, BE, BASc)

If you have already completed a bachelor’s degree in one of these fields, you will need to pursue a 16-month Master’s degree in order to be eligible to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit or an extension.

If you are in Canada on a study or work permit, and your spouse wishes to apply for an open work permit, you must meet these updated education requirements. This new policy introduces significant changes to the eligibility criteria for SOWP applications and extensions, so it’s crucial to understand the updated rules and plan accordingly.

1.2 New Education Requirements for Spouse Open Work Permit Applications

Previously, the requirements for a Spouse Open Work Permit may have seemed more flexible. However, under the new rules, your spouse will now typically need a Master’s degree to apply for an open work permit. There are some exceptions for specific Bachelor’s degree programs, but keep in mind that a Bachelor’s degree typically takes four years to complete. So, if you’re enrolled in a four-year Bachelor’s degree program, you may still be eligible to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit.

1.3 What’s an Even Bigger Update? Job Level Criteria

The most significant change, however, pertains to the job level of the primary applicant (i.e., the student or work permit holder in Canada). If you are finishing your studies and planning to apply for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), and you also want to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) for the first time from outside Canada or extend an existing SOWP, the primary applicant’s job level will now be a determining factor.

For the primary applicant’s spouse to qualify for a SOWP, the primary applicant must have a Tier 0 or 1 occupation, or Tier 2 or 3 occupations in labour shortage sectors. These sectors include:

Natural and Applied Sciences (though this is a highly competitive field)

Construction

Healthcare

Natural Resources

Education (including Early Childhood Education)

Sports and Military Sectors

At this point, the complete list of eligible sectors has not yet been released, but we expect it to be available on January 21, 2025, the day the new policy is implemented. If you work in any of these sectors or hold a job title in one of the eligible occupations, you will be able to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit. If not, it will be difficult to apply for an SOWP for the first time or to extend an existing SOWP.

Right now, we are still submitting SOWP applications alongside PGWP applications for many clients, and we continue to process extensions for clients who meet the job level requirements (Tier 0, 1, 2, or 3). If the primary applicant has a Tier 4 or 5 job, it’s important to note that SOWP applications are still being accepted for those levels, as long as the job is full-time. However, after January 21, 2025, it may become much more challenging to proceed with these types of applications.

If you have a pending PGWP or SOWP extension application, apply as soon as possible. There are only six days left before January 21, 2025, and after that, you may face significant challenges with your spouse’s open work permit application.

1.4 Managing Tier 2 and Tier 3 Jobs

While it is still possible to get a job in Tier 2 or Tier 3 occupations, you must understand that obtaining a 16-month work permit is a major challenge. For example, if you’re studying for one year and applying for a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), you will only receive a one-year PGWP. However, to qualify for a Spouse Open Work Permit extension or to apply for an SOWP for the first time (if your spouse is outside Canada), the primary applicant must have a 16-month work permit.

This is an important distinction, as many applicants have historically received only a one-year PGWP. But if you’re looking to extend your spouse’s work permit or get the first SOWP from outside Canada, the 16-month work permit requirement is non-negotiable.

1.5 What About Study and Work Permits?

For those applying for a study visa and a Spouse Open Work Permit together, the situation is more manageable. As long as the primary applicant has a 16-month Master’s degree or a relevant Bachelor’s degree (such as Bachelor of Education (B.Ed.) or Bachelor of Engineering), the process remains relatively straightforward. These options allow your spouse to qualify for a Spouse Open Work Permit, whether you’re studying or working in Canada.

However, the situation becomes much more complicated when dealing with work permits. If you’re applying for a PG Work Permit, and you don’t already have a job at the time of application, you’ll need to secure employment within one month. Once you obtain the job, you can submit your proof of employment to IRCC through a webform.

1.6 The Issue with Lower-Level Jobs (Tier 4 and Tier 5)

Under the new regulations, if you’re employed in Tier 4 or Tier 5 jobs, you will not be eligible for a Spouse Open Work Permit or extension, whether applying from within Canada or outside Canada. This is a critical update that may affect many applicants.

Previously, a full-time job in Tier 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 could suffice for a Spouse Open Work Permit application. However, visa officers were increasingly refusing applications for those in Tier 4 or 5 jobs. The latest update has removed Tier 4 and Tier 5 jobs from eligibility entirely. This means that if you’re on a lower-tier job, you will not be able to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit extension, and your spouse will not be able to apply for a fresh SOWP from outside Canada.

1.7 What You Can Do if You're on a Lower-Level Job

If you’re in a Tier 4 or 5 job, and you want to continue applying for a Spouse Open Work Permit, you can request that your employer upgrade your position to a Tier 2 or Tier 3 job. However, keep in mind that even if your job is upgraded, you must be working in one of the priority sectors where there is a labour shortage. These sectors are likely to include fields such as natural and applied sciences, construction, healthcare, education, and others.

1.8 Challenges with the 16-Month Work Permit Requirement for Spouse Open Work Permits

One of the biggest challenges under the new policy is the 16-month work permit requirement. If you receive a 12-month Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), you will face significant issues in applying for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) extension or a first-time SOWP from outside Canada. Unfortunately, if you only have a 12-month work permit, you will not be eligible for either of these applications.

This is a crucial update, and applicants who fall under this scenario must understand that they will not be able to proceed with the SOWP application process.

1.9 Exceptions to the 16-Month Work Permit Requirement for Spouse Open Work Permits

There is an exception to the 16-month work permit requirement that you should be aware of. If you haven’t completed your studies yet and need to extend your study permit, you can still apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) extension. As long as your study is still pending and you’re in the process of extending your study permit, your spouse can continue to apply for an SOWP extension. This process will remain fine under the new policy.

However, if you’re transitioning from a study permit to a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), this will not be allowed for a spouse to apply for a work permit under the new rules.

1.10 What Happens to Existing Spouse Open Work Permits?

For spouses who already have an open work permit approved under the previous measures, or for those whose permits haven’t expired yet, their work permits will remain valid until their expiration date. For instance, if your spouse’s open work permit is valid until December 2025, they can continue to use it without any issues while you stay in Canada.

1.11 What If More Time Is Needed to Complete Your Program?

In cases where students need more time to finish their program, or if you’re shifting to a Master’s degree or extending your studies, the spouse can still receive an extension for their open work permit, even if they’re in Canada. Similarly, if the primary applicant receives a shorter work permit than their spouse, the spouse can still extend their work permit without any issues.

1.12 Key Scenarios Where Extensions Are Possible:

If the primary applicant is extending their study permit and the study is still pending, the spouse can apply for an SOWP extension.

If the family member (spouse) receives a shorter work permit than the primary applicant, they are still eligible for an extension.

This applies as long as the study permit extension is in place for the primary applicant, and the spouse’s extension is linked to this.

1.13 When a New Spouse Open Work Permit Is Required

However, if your spouse needs to apply for a new Spouse Open Work Permit while you are transitioning from your study permit to a PGWP, the new rules require your spouse to meet the 16-month education requirement, which typically means they must have a Master’s degree (or a relevant PhD, depending on the program).

1.14 Extension During Study Period

When it comes to extensions during the primary applicant’s study period, the process is not a problem. For the first time, this issue has been clarified. If your spouse needs an extension while you are still studying, it is permitted. However, if you transition to a Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP), the situation becomes more complicated.

For those currently studying and planning to complete one year of study, you may have considered dropping your studies and moving to a PG work permit. If you are married and planning to rely on this strategy, it might not work out. Even if you’re unmarried, it’s highly recommended that you study for two years to obtain a three-year PG work permit.

1.15 Why You Should Aim for a Two-Year Program

If you’re married, studying for two years will give you a three-year PG work permit, which provides enough time to apply for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) or SOWP extension. 16 months of remaining work permit is essential at the time of application. Ideally, in Canada’s current scenario, three years of PG work permit is highly recommended as it gives you a safety net for your Permanent Residency (PR) application. Whether you’re in the medical profession, healthcare, or another field, having a three-year period will give you the best chance to secure your PR.

Even if you pursue a one-year Master’s degree, you can still qualify for a three-year PG work permit. This is a good option if you’re looking to balance your education with a longer work permit duration. Similarly, if you’re pursuing a two-year Master’s degree or a diploma (either Postgraduate or Undergraduate), you will also be eligible for the three-year PG work permit.

For those who are married, whether you’re applying for a new Spouse Open Work Permit or extending an existing one, the recommendation is clear: aim for a three-year PG work permit. This allows for sufficient time to meet the 16-month work permit requirement for the SOWP. In Canada, it’s common to receive either a one-year or a three-year PG work permit, so it’s best to opt for the three-year duration.

1.16 What To Do If You're Considering Dropping Your Study

If you are planning to drop your studies after one year (e.g., in April), it’s strongly advised that you extend your study for one more year. This way, you will complete two years of study and qualify for a three-year PG work permit. Alternatively, if you’re in the middle of a program, completing one semester or two semesters already, there’s still time to consider shifting to a Master’s degree.

By doing this, you can ensure that:

Your spouse can apply for the Spouse Open Work Permit.

You will be eligible for a three-year PG work permit.

This strategy will not only benefit your spouse’s work permit application but also provide a solid foundation for your future PR application.

1.17 How to Check Your Tier Level for Spouse Open Work Permit Eligibility

If you’re wondering about your tier level and how it affects your eligibility for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP), you can easily check it online. To check your tier level, visit the official National Occupational Classification (NOC) website. The link is here: NOC ESCD.

For instance, when I’m helping clients apply for Post-Graduation Work Permits (PGWP) and SOWP extensions, I regularly check tier levels. For example, a Machine Operator Supervisor falls under Tier 2, which may be eligible for a spouse work permit. You can use the same process to check the tier levels of other jobs, such as Sales Manager.

You can check any job title and find the appropriate tier level. It’s a useful tool to understand the eligibility for the SOWP extension.

If you find that your current job level is too low, you can request your employer to upgrade your role to a higher tier level. This could help you qualify for the spouse work permit.

1.18 Secure Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) with the Right Job Level

If you’re working part-time during your studies and planning to complete your program in April, be cautious about your next steps. You should create a strategy to ensure a smooth transition to full-time employment once your studies are complete.

You can ask your employer to provide you with a job at a Tier 0, Tier 1, or Tier 2 level. If you’re working part-time, the key is to convert your position to full-time as soon as you finish your studies. Your employer’s support is crucial during this process, as they can offer you a job offer at the required job level.

If your job is within Tier 0, Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3, you should be fine. However, if you’re in Tier 2 or 3, it is important that your role falls within the priority labour shortage sector. These sectors include industries where Canada is experiencing a labour shortage, making it easier for you to qualify for a Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP).

To sum up, if you’re in one of the appropriate tier levels and working in the right sectors, getting a Spouse Open Work Permit will not be an issue.

1.19 It's Important to Stay and Plan Your Pathway to Permanent Residency in Canada

neither recommended for Permanent Residency (PR) nor for Spouse Open Work Permit (SOWP) extensions. In any case, it’s better to study for at least two years to secure a three-year Post-Graduation Work Permit (PGWP). This ensures that you have everything in place to pursue your PR rather than leaving Canada after one year of study and one year of work permit. Trust me, leaving Canada after just one year isn’t a pleasant scenario.

It’s not easy to leave a country after spending time there. I have personally experienced the frustrations of dealing with challenges here in India and understand the difficulties people face when adjusting to life in a new country. Believe me, I’m not just saying this because I’m a consultant, I’m living it, and I deal with it every day. Each day brings new challenges, and I know how tough it can be to survive here.

I am learning French to pursue PR in Canada and considering moving to Dubai. There’s always a way out, but it’s not easy. That’s why I don’t want you to end up in a similar situation. The first four to five years in Canada can be difficult, but they are definitely manageable. Once you obtain PR, life gets much better.

I’ve seen people turn their lives around after getting PR. Once you have PR, consultants won’t be needed, employers will treat you well, and you will have better job opportunities. You’ll gain valuable experience working in Canada, and eventually, you’ll find yourself with a car and a home. Life will improve significantly.

So, stick with it, stay in Canada and persevere. The initial phase is tough, but after getting PR, everything changes. For this reason, it’s highly recommended that you aim for three years of PG work permit or three years of work permit in total. This gives you the opportunity to build a solid path toward your PR. We at Globexa can help & guide you through the PR process as well.

1.20 Plan Ahead for Your PR Pathway

As soon as you apply for your PG work permit and know you’ll be in Canada for at least two or three years, start planning your pathway to PR. Don’t wait until the last moment for consultations. Be proactive.

One additional tip: start preparing for the French test (TEF). It may take you a year to prepare, but French can be a strong backup option, especially if things don’t go as expected. While PNP and Direct PR are primary options, French will provide you with a secondary tool to improve your PR prospects. We have a team of experts who can help you with French language preparation, and we’ll guide you through every step of the process.

1.21 We at Globexa are Here to Support You

If you need assistance with your French language preparation, we can help. If you need guidance on PR or your PG work permit application, we are here to support you. Whatever you need, reach out to me, and my team will be ready to assist you.

1.22 Stay in Canada – Don’t Leave

It’s challenging to survive in India, and even in other countries, life can be equally frustrating. The stress and pollution here in India are overwhelming. Canada may seem tough, but it’s not as difficult as life here in India. Stay where you are, stick it out, and we will help you succeed in building a better life.

1.23 Contact for Guidance

For any case-related inquiries, whether for PR, PG work permits, SOWP extension, or spouse open work permit for the first time, get in touch. Stay informed, ask questions and stay in touch.

Thank you for reading this blog till the end. While some of you may not be eligible or may need to work with employers to manipulate job tiers for SOWP extension, these efforts are necessary. You need to put in the work, but we will help you along the way.

Don’t hesitate to contact us for any support or guidance you need. Let’s discuss your case, and We’ll be happy to help!

IRCC to implement restrictions on family Open Work Permits in January 2025

The Canadian immigration system is undergoing important changes that will affect the eligibility for family open work permits (OWPs) for international students and foreign workers. These changes, announced in September 2024, will be implemented on January 21, 2025. If you are planning to apply for Canada immigration or seeking assistance with work permits, understanding these updates is crucial. In this blog, we’ll break down these changes and explain how they could impact your family and work plans in Canada

Overview of the New Family Open Work Permit (OWP) Restrictions.

Starting January 21, 2025, the Canadian government will introduce stricter eligibility criteria for family open work permits (OWPs). These permits allow spouses or common-law partners of international students and foreign workers to work in Canada. The new regulations aim to focus on high-skill occupations and reduce the overall number of temporary residents. The government anticipates these measures will lead to a reduction of 50,000 to 100,000 fewer permits over the next three years.

Changes for International Students.

As part of these changes, family open work permits will only be available for the spouses or common-law partners of international students enrolled in:

Master’s programs that are 16 months or longer in duration

Doctoral programs

Select professional and eligible programs (as outlined below)

Previously, international students only needed to be enrolled in a Master’s program for their spouse to qualify for an open work permit, regardless of the program’s duration. Now, students must be enrolled in longer, more specialized programs for their spouse to be eligible for a family OWP.

How Foreign Workers Are Affected.

For foreign workers, the eligibility for family open work permits will be limited to spouses or common-law partners of those employed in specific occupations. These include:

TEER 0 and TEER 1 occupations (highly skilled jobs)

Select TEER 2 or 3 occupations in the following sectors:

Natural and applied sciences

Construction

Healthcare

Natural resources

Education

Sports

Military sectors

Additionally, the foreign worker must have at least 16 months of validity remaining on their work permit at the time their spouse applies for the OWP.

Educational Programs That Qualify for Family OWPs.

While the new restrictions will affect many programs, international students enrolled in the following programs will still be eligible to sponsor their spouse or common-law partner for a family OWP:

Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS DMD)

Bachelor of Law or Juris Doctor (LLB, JD, BCL)

Doctor of Medicine (MD)

Doctor of Optometry (OD)

Pharmacy (PharmD, BS, BSc, BPharm)

Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM)

Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BScN, BSN)

Bachelor of Nursing Science (BNSc)

Bachelor of Nursing (BN)

Bachelor of Education (BEd)

Bachelor of Engineering (BEng, BE, BASc)

Students in these programs will continue to be able to sponsor their spouse or common-law partner for a family open work permit, even though other Master’s programs may no longer qualify.

Who is Not Affected by These Changes .

Certain groups will remain unaffected by these changes:

Spouses of workers covered by free trade agreements (FTAs) are exempt from these new restrictions.

Spouses or common-law partners who are being sponsored for permanent residence (PR) in Canada may still apply for a Spousal Open Work Permit (SOWP) if they already have legal temporary status in Canada.

A Broader Immigration Reform Strategy.

These changes to the family open work permit eligibility criteria are part of a broader suite of reforms announced by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC). The goal is to manage the growing number of temporary residents in the country, especially in light of concerns about housing supply and affordability. The government predicts that these changes will lead to a reduction of 50,000 to 100,000 fewer permits issued over the next three years.

Advantages of an Open Work Permit (OWP).

The family open work permit offers several benefits to spouses or common-law partners of international students and foreign workers:

Flexibility to work anywhere in Canada: Unlike employer-specific work permits, OWPs are not tied to a particular employer, offering more job opportunities.

Pre-determined validity period: The validity of an OWP is typically determined in advance, making it easier to plan for long-term employment in Canada.

Broad eligibility: Most employers in most industries can hire OWP holders, providing flexibility in choosing a job.
