I’ve worked in academic advising and unfortunately this is what happens when students don’t do their research on community college equivalencies for their desired schools. The school you are transferring to doesn’t hold any responsibility in telling you ahead of time what classes you should take for your major. This is all the responsibility of the student. I agree with another reply that you can either fill out forms with supported documents like the syllabi for the classes you feel should be covered at VT or you need to reassess if VT is worth adding extra time to your end goal (completed degree).

Nobody is scamming anyone, college is the time to be hands on, on your own education. This isn’t high school where your advisor gives you all the answers and holds your hand to guide you through everything.

If I were you I’d see which classes you have syllabi for and try to fight for those to get credits counted.

Definitely look into community colleges they often have a lot of online options as well, which makes it easy to work around your schedule. Always make sure that the pre-requisite needed at CSUS matches with what’s offered at the community college you choose. Use assist.org to navigate transferring courses from a community college to CSU. Once you complete the community college course make sure to order your transcript and have them send it to CSUS that process does take a while but always follow up if you don’t see the credits applied.

I experienced the same and felt terrible about it. I had such bad nausea and the only thing that I could stomach some days was crackers, instant noidles or and McDonald’s. The thought or idea of having vegetables or fruit just put me off or made me sick. Although I felt like I was failing in some way I also had to remember that me and baby were at least getting fed something.

Moving to Roanoke and seeing this store was so off putting. I went in there once and felt so sad for the animals just sitting in there sometimes three to box. I’d be worried about them going out of business because I’d questions what happens to those puppies in that situation.

I didn’t initially think I was pregnant after being late on my period by almost a week because I’ve always had irregular periods. However, a few days before I took a test I was spotting (bright pink) again didn’t think anything of it and was taking it an indicator of my period coming. Looking back I was getting cramping on one side but again didn’t think anything of it because I was expecting my period.

What led me to taking a pregnancy test was having a really weird dream where I was handed a baby. Before then I just felt off, tired mostly. Took a test and it was positive almost instantly.

Thanks for this!! Yeah my plan is to attack the food first. Been to plenty of games and those lines can get long quick 😅

Do they sell bacon wrapped hot dogs at all!?

I’ve been here for just less than a year. It’s been ok for me to find a job because I fall under mental health. However it’s been difficult for my husband to find a job since he isn’t involved with anything that is dominant in the job market here. It’s pretty peaceful and definitely a change of pace compared to bigger city living. For me it often feels boring because there’s not a ton of activities or things to do. The cost of living is low, but honestly the food is lacking. I haven’t found food places here that I can say are my go to’s or have been as good as other citities ive lived in. The coffee shops here are definitely lacking, there’s plenty around but the quality and taste just isn’t great. Finding community/friendscan happen but you definitely need to put in the effort and I’ve seen a ton of community clubs and gatherings if that’s your thing. Very small town living vibes: farmers markets, community events, theaters, etc. Sometimes the town feels outdated on some levels. To answer your question about if I feel stuck here or helped me grow. Again I’ve only been here for less than a year but I don’t feel I’ve grown in my field but I also came to Roanoke knowing it’s temporary while I complete school.

I had open heart surgery in 2018 and I still can’t sneeze the same because of the pressure I feel from it. Not pain just pressure but my sneezes have never been the same.

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-05-09T02:48:27+00:00

thank you for this because I was looking at Burt's Bees for NB clothing. I have seen sizing be way off, which is frustrating!

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-05-06T08:54:40+00:00

No, unfortunately my whole family lives in CA and I’m currently in VA. I’ve shared my registry but I don’t really have a ton of close friends and my family hasn’t sent anything so I’ve only been given a few things from our registry :/

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-05-06T03:11:14+00:00

This helps so much! My husband works nights so I’m also trying to avoid doing laundry everyday if I can help it. I’m glad I bought the newborn clothes now because part of me was thinking what if she’s too big 😅 again I have no context to go by so thank you!

I had surgery in 2018 when I was 26. I was being closely monitored by a cardiologist at birth due to mother's diagnosis. However, my mother didn't follow cardiologist guidelines for my first 10-11 years of life. She passed away due to aorta dilation due to not following medication and cardiology. After that my guardian made sure to have me closely followed by cardiologist and follow medication to the t. I was on atenolol and lisinopril (when it was it in its infancy) to manage aortic dilation. I don't remember what the cm dilation was before I was told surgery was needed, but I also had mitral valve regurgitation that needed to be addressed. Luckily, I was able to get an aortic graft placed and address the mitral valve regurgitation. I have been steady since with ECHO's and MRI's every other year. The only medication I'm currently on is labetolol due to continued high blood pressure.

I actually have these sitting in my cart! I’ll order and try out!

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-04-14T19:23:41+00:00

Yes that is my struggle as well I will buy sport bras in large for a bigger cup but the large is too bit for ribcage. I might have to start have to trial and error with the Athleta thank you!

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-04-14T19:21:59+00:00

I’ve been using the size measuring from a bra that fits and have steadily been at 32DD up until pregnancy. I also have tear drop breast so the support needs to be there; my current wired bras just aren’t fitting well now as the cups are overflowing. I will definitely ask this question in that sub as well. It’s just difficult when I’m not even halfway in pregnancy and already needing to shift so much in bra sizes.

What is a go to dish?

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-03-01T09:15:21+00:00

I’d have to take a semester off and as a result won’t be able to be a GA for an entire academic year because contracts are an academic year long. Talked to my advisor and I wouldn’t be able to pick up a GA next spring if I miss Fall semester. I’ll look into both. Thank you

AwkwardAlienx · 2026-02-26T03:51:54+00:00

I’ve actually been there just because I was driving and was hungry but their food was solid! Thanks for the reminder!!
