What do you wish you knew before starting college?

[(Anonymous)]

...!

Re: What do you wish you knew before starting college?

[malurette]

That I was totally allowed to follow a vocational training from the start and damnit there's nothing shameful in that. Wouldn't have learned as much interesting but useless stuff, and would have saved me nearly ten years.

-Having an actual interest in your career path is vital and pursuing solely for the money will ruin your mental health in the long run.
-How to study well.
-Community college is good option only if you plan ahead of time.

That I would hate teaching. :( Try to talk to people in the profession you are interested in as early as possible. Especially try to find people that have changed their majors from the one you are interested in. They will tell you more of the negatives.

Suck up to people

An actual degree is worthless, people get places by having connections.

Re: What do you wish you knew before starting college?

Build a good relationship with a few professors or instructors so that by the time you graduate, you'll have people you can ask for letters of reference.

That education within a field you find interesting is in no way going to guarantee that you'll enjoy the kind of professions it leads to.

Don't have depression or anxiety

Re: What do you wish you knew before starting college?

[bur]

That one of my best friends was a toxic waste dump that would stress me out into an illness that got me booted out of college. That would've been nice to know.

LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS! LIVE OFF CAMPUS!

My first year roommate in residence was a fucking nightmare.

That the economy was going to go to shit.

That taking the easy route is always a shitty plan.

That money is bloody important. You can't live on nothing.

What frustrates you about people "on your side"?

[(Anonymous)]

I'm thinking more politics, but you can apply it to any shared interest or goal.

Specific subreddit complaints

[(Anonymous)]

Besides the obvious issues with rampant bigotry and creepy dudes, I mean. What issues bug you?

For me it's that r/crossstitch has lots of beautiful pics of finished projects that get bunches of upvotes but if you have a problem or a question that goes beyond the basics, you might as well save yourself the effort of posting.

What foods are overrated?

🍉 🥕 🥞

Do you volunteer?

[(Anonymous)]

Where and what do you do?

Do you think "everyone is bi" is to a degree true?

[(Anonymous)]

???

For those who identify as straight or gay....

Is there one person of the same/opposite sex that would totally have sex with?

Sudden changes

[(Anonymous)]

I was at Ghost's last concert for the Meliora era tonight, and while I knew that this would be Papa Emeritus III's last show, I didn't expect that it would happen like this! Certainly befitting his character, but still...

Marvel: Legacy #1(Spoilers a given!)

[(Anonymous)]

So what does everybody think of Marvel: Legacy #1? Including the fact that [SPOILER REDACTED) returned?

[(Anonymous)]

That I'd get out the other side and it'd be okay, I guess. And it's true. Life's pretty good now.

I had a shit time at college, but I don't really regret it because I can't imagine how it could have gone differently without me being a fundamentally different person. Not growing up in a super dysfunctional family environment, now that could have made a difference.

That said, if you hate college but choose to finish your degree rather than dropping out, don't fuck it up. Just put in enough work to pass, that's fine. But don't fuck around and procrastinate and fail courses, because that's more $$$ down the drain and more time you have to spend in your shit-hole of choice before graduating. If you need to drop down to fewer courses to finish, do that. But defer instead if you realise you're going to fail.

Help Finding a Song

[(Anonymous)]

This is a long shot, but here it goes:

A long time ago I used my mp3 player to record a song off a local pop/Top 40s radio station. My mp3 player broke and I can't remember the song title or singer.

I recorded it around the time Shinedown's Second Chance and Coldplay's Viva la Vida was playing, so sometime in 2008.

It was not rap or country.

The singer was male. It was not Michael Jackson, Theocracy, Finger Eleven, or Justin Timberlake.

I the song reminded of the animated TV show version of Beetlejuice.
There was something about mirrors, windows, or portals.

On background checks.

[(Anonymous)]

To cut a long story short, I have reason to believe that a long-time family friend of mine is being scammed by a con artist, and I'm trying to do a background check on this person. Lots of online background check services say that they're free, but they really just mean that the search is free, and you have to pay to actually see what--if anything--has turned up. I was wondering if anyone here had any advice on how to proceed. I really don't want my friend to get hurt, but I also can't afford the cost of buying access to these public records.
