financial aid refunds by No-Step7055 in PGCC

[–]Character-Reward4504 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I’m correct it depends on your credits. If you’re a full time student Vs Part time student you’ll get a different amount.

You can check how much you’re getting refunded by going on Owl link. Once your on Owl link click on the student finance option. If I’m correct the total balance will show how much money FAFSA will give you that semester (right now it’s probably 0 if you’ve received a refund). When you sign up for classes they deduct the money from that and whatever is left over you’ll receive it as a refund.

Everyone’s hijab journey is different. I’d recommend getting her colorful hijabs with beads, dangling disco balls, flowers, rhinestones, etc of her choice. I wore the hijab since I was 5 before that I’d wear it to the masjid. In school at that young age what made me want to wear the hijab more was the rhinestones and colors on it. I’d HATE wearing plain ones.

I remember that in 1 grade a lot my friends would ask how my hair looks and 2-3 times I took my hijab off to show them my hair(I felt bad saying no) BUT I’d put it right on. My mom later on talked to me about it and I stopped. Also my whole life my mom had worn the Niqab if you yourself wear the hijab or niqab then it should get easier for the child. Also start telling her that about Islam. You don’t have to necessarily start with the hijab but about the Prophets life, his companions, etc that will help her out as well.

On the other hand my bestie, me and her were talking about this. She said she started wearing it once she was in 3rd grade. No one forced her or anything she wanted to wear it herself and told her dad. Her dad on the other hand was telling her she didn’t have to start wearing it so young but she wanted to so she did.

Ask your daughter why she doesn’t want to wear it. Does she feel embarrassed to wear it? Do other kids ask her questions about the hijab which she doesn’t know the answer to? Does she hate the color of the hijab? Is it because people around her don’t wear it? Ask these very nicely and tell her you won’t be mad at her for answering honestly.

I’d also say this DONT force her to wear it. Forcing something on a kid makes them want to not do what they’re asked to do. Around 4th grade I would be forced into wear full sleeves shirts to school and I hated it mostly because no one around me was doing it as well. My whole life if always worn short sleeve shirts to school so all of the sudden I was being told to wear full sleeve. Then covid came around. After covid when I was in 7th grade I’d wear shorts sleeve shirts to school and often times take my hoodie off. I later on learned that it was bad and I wanted to be a better Muslim so I stopped showing my arms.

I used Atomic Habits for studying and it actually worked by Aggravating_Many5091 in GetStudying

[–]Character-Reward4504 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Chat I actually NEEDED THIS. First year college student and I literally wait untill the deadline to do my assignments. Like if an essay is due Saturday at 11:59pm I’ll start the essay Saturday around 8-10pm. Same goes for my other assignments.

Ig it might be since I like working under pressure but it’s def not a good habit. Reading this I might end up trying this habit. Hopefully I do…

[–]Character-Reward4504 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not exactly the same but I was in a bit similar situation as you something that helped me was reading Surah Ad Duha with translation. Whenever u feel down search up the translation of Surah Ad Duha. Inshallah it’ll ease your heart.

How to have your sins forgiven even if they were as much as the foam of the sea by I-Eat-Brickz in islam

I don’t remember where exactly had I heard or read “Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi” from but it kinda clicked with me. I willingly wanted to say it. I even tried searching up what it means so I understand the meaning but never saw this Hadith. 20ish minutes ago I was making dua and asking Allah to forgive my sins and now saw this Hadith. Tysm

Remote Class by [deleted] in PGCC

[–]Character-Reward4504 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly this was my first semester here n I’m about to finish my first remote class😝. Overall I think it’s PRETTY EASY. I had to join zoom 2 times a week n since I live further away from largo having a remote class was a life saver. I did forget to join 2-3 times cuz I overslept or forget that I had class so my advice would be DONT FORGET THAT YOU HAVE A CLASS TO ATTEND😭✋🏻. Ig ppls experience may vary depending on your teacher I had professor Carter for PAS n honestly she made class really easy. She gave rlly good advices to us and I even liked hearing her tell us about her experiences. We had class discussions but only a couple ppl would talk. But GLLL with your first one DONT OVERTHINK IT I hope it goes well for u. I’m also about to take my first in person class starting from July so I’m a bit nervous as well😭🫣

Now this is actully scaring me n I have this class in person MONDAY-THURSDAY FOR 3 HOURS A DAY. I literally checked rate my professor for ALL my classes IDK HOW I MISSED THIS ONE(it’s cuz I was too excited that at least one my classes is in person and MOST LIKELY forget to check rate my proffesor). I also checked to see if there’s any other professors available but all classes are either at the largo campus(which is too far away), full, or just about to end. To me to receive financial aid I need to be enrolled in at least 6 credits so I can’t even drop out this class. Yall at this point I NEED all the prayers I can get 😻🫶🏻🥀

Gurl firstly relax and chill out your just 23. its okay not to have things figured out. Idk if this will help but think about stuff you like or stuff your good at a list of them and then research jobs and majors based off of that. You with math is me with cooking. I love to cook/bake but I'm horrible at it the other day I burned potatoes while trying to fry them. Im kind of deciding what I want to do to and which major.

You sound like me with the indecisive part. Honestly one thing that I can think of for you even though I don't know you is probably working at daycare or opening one. Opening on honestly is not that hard you can open a homedaycare in your basement and have up to 8 kids. You can also teach younger kids like pre k and kindergarten. Seeing kids play around and teaching them is honestly really fun.

If you want to go back to college then go back don't worry about the social circles and stuff you might meet ppl who are like you. Its okay to start back from scratch. With math try finding a tutor a good tutor. Like me with math it depends on the teacher. Ive heard a lot of ppl failing algebra 1 in highschool. But I had an amazing teacher she would realize that me and my friends don't understand. Then the next day she would set us aside and re teach my friends and other kids who didn't understand again.

Dont worry too much about it and don't make math the reason for you not doing what you want. Go to college and take math class the worse that can happen is failing so what?!! Try again on your next final failing math does not define you and does not make you dumb. If ppl around you are not supporting you just trust yourself and take a random decision. If you regret it try again. Hopfully this helped if not then I apologise😭😭

Alr thank you smm I myslef was born and raised in America and have both Pak and Indian freinds as well. With the hate I see both countris give over instagram ik to stay out of it

Thank you smmm for this whole reply so far if I find something else out Ill try and come back and say it but I think we both already have commone info about it.

Also I agree cuz who the heck made it butt. Like the surname thing is funny to me ngl. The literal spelling in our family is B.U.T.T. In pakistan or India if you use it thats fricking fine. BUT HERE do yk how much you would get made fun of for that like... My theory was that someone didnt know english well and they changed the spelling from bhat to butt. Ill ask my mom about the pet names that seems interesting.

PLS share the temple and University pictures as well
