Pic 7 is the strands to be rooted

Pic 8 is the original 8 strands from the braid

Pic 9 is the original nylon cord.

So I have actually done this before but never bothered to document it! This cord had 8 strands but others can have more or less. I separated each strand in half and rooted that (so 16 plugs/wefts per section of cord).

Then I glued, boil washed, brushed brushed brushed.

There are some empty holes but that is because I was trying a new glue and it didn't work as well as my usual glue. not the fault of the cord!

This is great if you have time and don't mind some fucking around, an entire reroot takes $1.50 worth of cord from Dollarama. I've also used nylon cord from Home Depot. If you use white nylon you can use synthetic dye and make whatever colour hair you want!

I wrote a long emo post but I'm tired of people judging my circumstances so I'll just get right to the meat of the issue.

I've always wanted to do something that is beneficial to others, was really hoping to go into nursing and eventually work with Doctors Without Borders. I'm 29 so not doing so hot with that.

I applied to nursing last year and didn't get in because I didn't do well on the CASPer test (basically a test where you are judged on your empathy levels based on timed responses). This year I did well on the CASPer test but my high school courses are now "too old" to be considered (I graduated HS in 2015 and they want within the last ten years). Admission is very very very competitive and I just don't have the 92%+ average that the universities want. I don't think I can get that average either.

I am in Calgary Alberta Canada. Can't move because I'm poor and my parents have allowed me to move in with them (thank God)

I just don't know what to do. I've also been having health issues lately that make me wonder if I could even hack it as a nurse. I don't want a medical office job (severely oversaturated in my area) and I don't know what else to consider.

I don't know if it would make sense spending another year attempting to upgrade courses. I'm already poor, I really need to work at least part time, and I struggle balancing school and work. My parents are willing to let me live rent free if I'm in school full time, but otherwise I need a job.

I would really appreciate some suggestions. Please don't be a dick to me, I already hate myself beyond your ability to comment. If you just want to comment about how useless and worthless I am, just move on.
