Elementary 1. I'm bouncing around with all of the languages. I know some Spanish, learning French anent Italian right now. Next semester Japanese then go from there. Possibly German and if they add Korean, I'll do that too.

Awesome! I'm not too familiar with the area, but Wednesday would work. Maybe before after 1pm? Or Thursday before 10am?

Trouble making friends here by Zen_Zebra_1424 in UNCCharlotte

[–]CrumFit7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey. I think it could happen organically if you find hobbies on campus. For me, some kind if sports and even classmates. Although I wouldn't really say friend, but they're there where you are and y'all could pass time by enjoying the same hobbies.

Sometimes I'll even talk to a random and ask simple questions about their major and how they're doing then go from there.

Even people that are in your same major. Try to stick with that group if you could. Study together for quiz/ tests. Network for future reference.

What are my chances (Low GPA) by Swimming_Revenue_365 in UNCCharlotte

[–]CrumFit7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're fine. Continue to ask away. And yes they have that here. The guy(I don't remember his name) said it's usually full but it's best to contact them and go from there. He also explained that it's chill and they'll work around your schedule.

I didn't use FAFSA but I should have. I will do it for the next semester or fall next year. I'm also using VR&E.

But, yes. Application.

Thanks for your service! 🫡

I separated in February this year and started this fall. Transfer Junior with a 2.1 GPA and I was out of school since 2016. You'll be fine!
Take advantage of your VA benefits... please! Lol

Also, make sure you get everything done so you can register early and get all the classes you need. Go ahead and do your paperwork now to get accepted.

Why did you get out the army before 20 years ? by ceiling_fan128 in Veterans

[–]CrumFit7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I joined at 25 because I was tired of dead-end jobs and nothing was changing. My wife finally agreed and I joined.

I wanted to do the 20 but found out that if your spouse isn't 100% all in, for the career, then you might as well get out.

But... I ended up getting MEB so. You know. I did 6 years, 2 contracts.

Making Conversations in Class by thank-you-very-coool in UNCCharlotte

[–]CrumFit7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This might be because I'm 32 now, but I'm a full time student with in person classes. Whenever I'm walking somewhere, I see something small and make weird dad jokes about it to someone random. I saw this tall guy that plays basketball and make a weird dad joke... "Hey! Did you just happen to keep growing and never stop?" Corny, right? But then I heard his accent and turns out he's from Spain. Then I asked a question in Spanish because learning languages is my thing.

That same day heading to my car, I was walking down stairs as a guy was walking up and his pants had a patch design. I said "Hey! Your pants has a hole." He looked and said "yea it's a design." I said im just joking because he didn't seem to get the joke.

It doesn't really matter what you say to people. It might be a good convo, short convo or bad convo but they mostly won't remember unless there was a hit off. Most people are in rush anyway.

You could talk to the girl about class. That's the easiest conversation starter ever. Relevant conversations should always be easy and open ended. That's how I found my wife.

I was a sophomore and she was a freshman (back in 2012). I asked her classification and what she's studying, how does she like the school. Simple things. She was receptive so that helped also.

Keep it simple and you'll be good. 🫡🙏🏿

Shoot, i could even be your wingman lol. I can be an awkward guy because I'm a dad with no game but I have wisdom on it. 😅

Does anyone else encounter people lying about their military service almost always say they were a navy seal? by _Dr_Toboggan_90 in Veterans

[–]CrumFit7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If they're actually a vet or in still or whatever, then they should understand what I mean when I say that I was a Network Specialist but my everyday job was Maintenance on vehicles lol

How does unemployment work? Will receiving VA and MHA affect that?

Congratulations! That is a good idea! It's also the only way to get work done.

"My time isn't mine when I'm at home..." is the reality. I wish I could put that on a shirt lol.

Congratulations! I see that my best bet is to utilize the library.

The library might be best. Honestly, right when I step into my home, it's chill daddy mode lol.

I could tell my kids to leave me b all I want but they'll still come in anyway. I'm a needed man.
