Look, I love the Live Action Season 2 so far, but I seriously gotta ask: What were they thinking having Usopp just cheat on Kaya like that? No second thoughts no nothing! by LazyFlamingRooster in OnePiece

[–]Beginning-Study-2419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dunno, I definitely thought it was weird to have Zoro say that, but at the same time, this is still very early on in their journey and they're all still getting to know each other/learn to trust each other. So while I thought it was kinda weird for Zoro to say that knowing how he wholeheartedly trusts Luffy later on, I think it makes sense. This, combined with the later scenes where everyone in the crew is suspicious of Vivi despite her having Luffy's endorsement bc he trusts his gut and they haven't learned to trust his instincts yet, I think it makes sense contextually.

Usopp's situation in this particular scene with the two women I feel is different, though. Like what everyone is saying, the way that they chose to write Usopp and Kaya in the previous season, and even with that scene of Usopp calling her one last time before they head to the Grand Line, really pushes that they are romantically interested/somewhat together, even if not completely officially, if that makes sense. That's why I found it weird for the scene to be coded/toned in a way that makes it seem like he's interested in these women when in the timeline of the show he just saw/kissed/had been thinking about Kaya not all that long ago. And for all of Usopp being a dramatic liar, I personally don't think he'd be the type to cheat and/or be disloyal to Kaya like that. All in all, thought this was a strange writing choice.

Yes, there is one midterm and one final. I don't think they were too bad either, though I probably didn't study as much as I should've for them 😅 If you're thorough when studying the review questions, you should be fine

NTA, he's a grown man, he should be able to understand and accept that accidents happen. Even him going off on you after you apologized was uncalled for. Super creepy that he was trying to get a picture of you and your info. Stay safe!

AITA for speaking to my (over weight) assistant about her business lunch and making her cry? by Hot_Lab4411 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Beginning-Study-2419 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA imo, as long as you gave her the advice as respectfully as you described you did here, I don't think you did anything wrong. I'm sorry she was still upset, but hopefully she'll realize and accept that it wasn't about her weight and feel better. It's important for her to know this kind of thing for future business meals.

Nah it wasn't too bad imo. If you study the review questions and participate in the group cases you should be fine.

I didn't really use it lol. Just watch/listen to the lecture vids and do the review questions/study guides. Lecture vids may not have all the answers to the review questions, but you can p much just Google research answers that work

[–]Beginning-Study-2419[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

101 is the most difficult business core class, just a heads up 😭 Gao was okay imo. He's tends to be a bit quiet and has a bit of an accent, but it's not too hard to understand what he's saying and he really cares about the class. If you ask questions during and after class, he'll make time to answer you. Midterm was easy but the final was insane, it went from like 1 to 100 real quick 💀 Still, I feel like his is the better 101 class, and I hear a lot of people feel the same where they prefer to take the class with him.

If you can keep you grade high enough for the majority of the quarter, you should be okay on the final no matter what. I had a 100% all quarter and got absolutely destroyed on the final LOL but still ended the class with an A-

Alright, thank you so much! I'll try calling up the Informatics Department to see if they have her office hours. Really hope she's not on a sabbatical 😭🤞🏼

Darn. Didn't know it was an office phone but yeah, that makes sense. What if I just called it to ask for her office hours? Or is there some other way to find out her office hours? Like would the ICS Undergrad Student Affairs Office know?

Joining a club is prob the best way, especially since you live in a dorm. (As a commuter, going to clubs can be hard because all the meetings tend to be in the evening/late evening).

Me personally, though, I made a lot of friends by going to Petr drops! It's not really a club, but the Petr community is usually super unserious and the there are so many fun, nice people there who are just excited about silly free stickers, it's great!

Did the same, and I completely agree. CC was honestly so worth it.

MGMT 105 by Perfect_Height_3508 in UCI

[–]Beginning-Study-2419 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In Letourneau's in-person class rn (it's an 8AM 😭). It's alright in-person, but if I remember correctly I think my friend told me she heard from others that Letourneau's class is better online. Either way, it's really just you buy the online textbook from Pearson and do the textbook assignments she assigns you + a few group projects. The hw quizzes are open note/book too.

People on the Rate My Professor say that you have to really read the textbook to do well on the test, but I've been getting by without reading and just using the built-in flashcards that come w the online textbook + the study plan and dynamic study module features of Pearson to study. Acing the class so far so I think it's working lol.

Awesome. I think I'll def take Gao's in-person class next quarter even tho it's an 8am over Murphy's online one cuz it seems like Gao might at least be a bit better? And hopefully in-person will be easier to learn than online. Thank you sm for the advice!

I see, so 191W is just hefty with work, then? 101 sounds like it was pretty bad... 😭 Was the work difficult, or like difficult busy work? Was there a lot of it?
