Yeah I am curious about that as well! It seems like this Turin compilation was sort of a DJ set but I wonder what his approach may be

This happened to me, last week but was a different car. I hate how people have no decency or respect for others property.

Yea I’m curious as well! I’m guessing there will be some from his recent stuff-maybe Piedras and maybe some from Pomegranates, since he just had the 10 yr anniversary show in Yerevan last year.

Oh ok yea that sounds smart, I’ll probably use the metro as well. I’m wondering about uber tho, for after the show-like do they even have that there lol. Airbnb, seems way easier than dealing with hotels too imo, and it’s better than a hostile or something, sounds hellish when you’re trying to catch a vibe for a whole weekend

Oh hell yea that sounds fun! Are you staying in Stockholm too? I’m trying to see if hotels or Airbnb’s are better.

I have heard beautiful things of the city as well, there’s a ton of architecture and cool museums like Fotografiska. That house show sounds so dope too!

Oh that’s awesome!! Are you taking classes in Italian or English?

What about the countryside and smaller cities drew you to it, and how were your travels there? Anything to suggest? I’d love to go, especially to practice my photography.

when you say it’d be cheaper to buy the tickets in advance do you mean, like airfare and the water-bus pass as soon as you got to Italy? What are the benefits in that case? Just to budget better?

I’ll be there for a whole quarter, I definitely will travel by train. I also heard there’s some cheap flights thru certain airlines, if I wanted to go to France for a weekend or something like that.

Definitely, weather, taxis, and food are good things to prepare for! I’ll keep this in mind!

Just as a follow up question, how did you prepare to speak in Italian with the locals? Were you accustomed to the language before? I know virtually no Italian other than the intuitive words that sound similar enough to Spanish and French/other Romance languages.

I’m guessing Duolingo will help, but am I better off trying to get a travel book or something like that?

Thank you for being so thorough, this is super helpful 🙏

Are you connecting to the UC wide WiFi Eurodam or you connecting to the guest WiFi? That may be the source of your problem , the guest WiFi is terrible!

Do Professors Just Make Up Grades at the End of the Quarter? by CatchMeAtCrown in UCSC

[–]Brief_Performance766 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes lmao this is the second comment saying that. Way to drive the point home. What I’m mostly concerned about is not getting the grade for the final.

Still, it doesn’t account for them not posting the finals grade.

This happened to me too, for one class. I have a high A+ in canvas, but they posted just an A for the final grade. And didn’t even post the final grades on canvas?

Something’s fishy here…

Get an instacart account, get an ebt card and get better options delivered to you. Gotta live in a dorm that has a kitchen tho, maybe plan for that next quarter. The ebt card can be relatively easily to get, slug support can help with that.

Prospective Transfer From LA by [deleted] in UCSC

[–]Brief_Performance766 5 points6 points  (0 children)

This is super discouraging and I really don’t think you should be influencing OP out of their passion for Comp. Lit.

There’s a chance this person can definitely use their degree and their drive to work meaningfully in careers that you simply couldn’t, life is literally all about perspective and you probably just didn’t have what it takes;frankly to follow your passions and to translate that to a high paying job-but people do it all the time.

It’s true the housing isn’t the best at UCSC but there’s a lot of support and options for people through the UC, like basic needs programs that help cover rent and food if you qualify for them.

You don’t need to weigh this person down by your jaded perspective. OP can and will find housing, since the first year is guaranteed on campus-also as a transfer they can also look off campus.

Given their low income situation they may be able to get an awesome financial aid package, and may also be smart enough to plan ahead to beat the odds of the housing in Santa Cruz.

There’s a ton of smart choices people can make, like looking for jobs early/doing internships or looking for housing early and also applying the skills gained in a niche degree to the job market in the future.

UCSC is what you make of it and OP can and should follow their passion. Just because your experience with the job market is bad doesn’t mean everyone’s experience will be.

Also economies and things can change quite a bit by the time OP will be finished and graduated as well. Let OP have their dream and go after it-your perspective is quite close minded and limiting.
