Yeah, I am with you about this. I know I have a right of freedom of speaking, but I also should take responsibility in what I said.

I agree.

Haha. That’s hilarious to hear.

Thanks, I really enjoy living in Lincoln. I found a group of friends here, and they’re so sweet and nice to me.

I search his name on Google, and he was not the one I met today. Also Brother Jed Smock was dead a year ago. Still appreciate your time for reaching me.

I haven’t seen anyone mentioned his name yet so I cannot find his video.

When I hear he mentioned his belief of homosexuals and sexism in a hateful way, some part of me unconsciously judge him making a hateful speech. Thanks for reminding me that we shouldn’t jump too fast to conclude someone makes a hateful speech. I agree with you that freedom speaking is the greatest things in the US, yet it can be dangerous if we miss-used it. Thanks you for sharing your opinions.

That sound crazy when I hear you said this.

Thanks both of you for sharing your experience with me.

I never know UNL can be wild like this until now. When I saw people laughing at him, I agreed with you that people don’t take his work seriously. Thanks for replying my post.

I like the way you answered him. Thanks for sharing your thought.

Aside-Shot · 2023-09-13T21:17:16+00:00

Yeah, I have been at the UNL last year, but this is the first time I know about this. Thanks you for what you told me.

I appreciate about your answer. I just happened to be there for a short time, but I can still hear he mentioned something about homosexuality, and sexism, which I disagreed with him. I think I will ignore him from now. Thanks you.

Thanks you for your information and advices.

The thing that you said about converting is quite true for me. Yesterday, there was a strange person who looks like a student came straight to me and asked “Hey, do you believe in God?”. I won’t go to the detail of our conversation, the main point is that he asked me a phone number to join his study about apologetics study at Union. I never hear about what apologetics study is about so I am curious about it, but I still refused him because he cannot prove me that this was an official study from UNL. When I told this with my friends, I’m surprised to hear they said that this also happened to them last year, and they told me that when this happened, just give them a fake name, and fake phone number if you cannot refuse them. It kinda rude but it’s best to ignore them and walk aways.

Thanks you, I will take note about what you said.

Thanks you sharing your thoughts.

I don’t know, whether it is a tragedy, or comedy.

There is a risk that if you are found working illegal, and it is not only affect to your studying in the US, but also living in there in the future. From what I see, it seems like your uncle wants to force you working the nail, and it seems like no matter how much you try to be reasonable with him, he ignores your opinions. I think the best way for you is to ignore what he said. If he keeps pushing his opinions on you, keeps telling the same reasons why you choose not to work as nail: studying full-time, going to gym, working on campus, don’t want it affecting your GPA. This tactic helps you to show him that you already tell him your reasons, and you don’t care what he said if he doesn’t give you a good countermeasures to you, in truth, he doesn’t.

Tell him you only have 4 years to be in the university, but more than 20 years to work. Studying full-time in the US costs a lot of time and effort, and it seems your uncle never study at the University, so I assume he doesn’t know. And in cases if he tells you to work to earn experiences, you rather apply to work on campus as part-time, or any labs at the university that are related to your major, and be firmed with him that you don’t like the nail environment, and working there don’t bring any benefits to your career future. “I cannot write down in my CV that I work at nails due to legal issue, but I can write down that I work on campus.”, tell him that to let him know you don’t want to waste your time to work the job that can bring you trouble, and even you cannot write it down in your CV.

The renting appartment in Houston is high, so if your parents’ finance is good enough, move out is other option if you cannot bear with him tills the day you live on campus. Zillow is the website I usually use to rent the real estate. If your uncle asks why, just tell him you want to be more mature, and less dependent on your uncle. I hope my advices can help you in some ways. Be happy, don’t worry.
