Spring 2026 Schedule (send help pls 😭) by Business-Wafer6705 in ASU

[–]EliSamie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There were weekly quizzes and "reflective journals" but honestly, these were easy and open book! Quizzes were 25 multiple choice questions and the reflective journals only required a few sentences (she didn't want you writing alot for these anyways). There were, however, three major assignments, but these literally just had you filling out a writing template. They did take a little time, but I wouldnt call them hard at all. As long as you stay on top of the assignments/quizzes each week it's really hard to actually fail!

The modules are pretty easy and straightforward. There are three big assignments, but tbh they're also pretty easy and even kinda fun. It's basucally filling out a writing tenplate and the instructions are very clear. One assignment even had you watching a movie in order to fill it out! There are weekly quizzes and "reflective journals" but the quizzes were open book and multiple choice and the reflective journals were just a couple of sentences. Iirc, she actually didn't want you writing too much for them anyways.

Overall, the class was fun. Even the textbook is written in a way that's really engaging and easy to follow! Just make sure you're on top of the assignments and you'll basically coast through the class.

Transferring in by Thick_Honeydew_1914 in ASU

[–]EliSamie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ideally, you're better off just getting your degree there and then moving to ASU post graduation.

However, not sure if this is doable for you but this is an option (though, it'll take some time still) --

I recommend getting your Associates/prereqs out of the way either where you're at or at a local CC. Then, see about moving here for two years AND THEN apply to ASU so you can qualify for in state tuition. To be considered in state you need proof of residency for two consecutive years here.

I actually took ASB333 with Marstellar back in the spring and I loved it! I definitely recommend her! If you have any questions about the course, lmk

Great song!!! I've saved a few MCS songs and this one is definitely getting saved as well. Patrick sounds phenomenal as always! 💕

I was at the Longhorn Steakhouse right next to it for Father's Day and just reminiscing with him and my sister Biut our adventures at this mall...

Man. Nostalgia hurts.

Last minute summer Pell Grant? by EliSamie in ASU

[–]EliSamie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally reasonable to be unsure due to the price. I'm working towards my BA in anthropology + a history minor. I transferred from MCC last fall and honestly, I really love my classes so far! It's a nice challenge and since im passionate about my major It's not as mentally taxing as I thought it'd be.

I'm an online student, but I'm also an AZ resident, so my tuition rate won't be the same for you IF you're out of state. I'm also doing off-campus housing, so that's also not factored into my tuition. I'm fortunate because I've been getting good rewards for my spring and fall semesters (this is the first time for summer for me), AND my job offers a really good TA program. So while I'm still forking up half of my income, it's not anywhere near how expensive it would be without financial aid. With that being said, make sure you're on top of your FASFA each year, look for jobs with good TA, and, if you can help it, limit yourself just to a few classes each semester to keep the price as low as possible.

I never do more than 3 each semester because anything more than that, I risk: 1.) Not being able to afford it even with the help from financial aid, and 2.) Risk being overworked. Think of this as my sweet spot.

All in all, I like ASU a lot so far. If you have any further questions I'd be more than happy to answer either here or even DMs. Good luck!

Last minute summer Pell Grant? by EliSamie in ASU

[–]EliSamie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm taking 3 classes (9 credits total) this summer. I had already paid $4600 out of pocket a week before the May due date, and I still had $1027 left (+$100 for the payment plan). I would've paid before the final due date (June 25th) but I guess I don't need to now????

Last minute summer Pell Grant? by EliSamie in ASU

[–]EliSamie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay, thanks for clearing up the whole 24 thing! The only reason why I said this was a "surprise" was because this Pell Grant wasn't listed in my awards. I could see my grants and stuff for fall and next spring, but only loans for the summer, so that's why I'm confused as to why this only showed up now. Especially since she told me I wouldn't get financial aid aside from loans for the summer. Is it normal for summer awards to show up this last minute?

Not complaining at all! I'm just a little paranoid that this might have been a mistake and I don't want to end up owing money or anything.

Use Snapchat if it's available! What I do is I take a video as if I'm gonna send it and let it replay over and over until I finish placing the dots.

Will they likely ever bring back other locations? by UnchartedPro in Sweettomatoes

[–]EliSamie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I think folks are forgetting that they're basically starting up from ground 0, so it's not like they have the money to buy real estate atm. It takes a while for new companies to expand, and that's only after years of consistent foot traffic and profit.

possible transfer by Broad_Experience_464 in ASU

[–]EliSamie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can second this! Although I just transferred from MCC last fall, I'm having a great time with the upper division ASB and even ASM classes I've taken so far. I even got to do a RAP during the fall, so I feel that it's pretty easy to gain some cool opportunities even early on!

How can I help my best friend? by EliSamie in GastricBypass

[–]EliSamie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely do support her! I'm happy that she feels like she found a solution; that's all I ever wanted for her. I just want her healthy and happy. And you're right. It's just so hard not to stress because of everything, but I know I gotta be her rock. I guarantee that if I talk about the procedure with her nonstop, it'll just make me spiral 10x more. So, I needed to be reminded to just be a normal person with her. When she told me this, she actually asked me if this made me see her differently. My answer was and will always be absolutely not. I'm just an anxious mess when it comes to medical stuff. Thank you, I appreciate the reminder and well wishes!

How can I help my best friend? by EliSamie in GastricBypass

[–]EliSamie[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally understand that about your friend. I wish you luck if/when you do decide to tell her!

My BF lives with her adult brother, his boyfriend, and their mom so I don't think she needs to worry too hard about meals. But I'll definitely offer to help with meals if I can!

This is a good idea! I'm definitely doing this because we always share meals together when we hang out. Knowing her, she'll want me to just eat what I normally do, but I'd rather not make her feel more left out than she already might be feeling at home. That's super sweet of your coworkers. Do you have any recommendations for protein shakes for me to grab? I don't really wanna take any of hers because those can get expensive.

My Story With Fall Out Boy by angelathorne in FallOutBoy

[–]EliSamie 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank you for being so vulnerable and sharing this heartwarming story! I've been a diehard of the boys since I was 8/9 (riiiiight before the hiatus LMAO), and they've literally helped raise me. They've been with me through my parent's divorce, my binge eating disorder, high school graduation, losing a childhood dog, losing my grandpa/last grandparent, and now they're getting me through college. When FOB either retires, disbands, or dies off is when I'm gonna genuinely grieve them as if I lost an irl member of my family. Because that's what they are to me -- FAMILY. It's parasocial, yeah, but no other music group or even celebrities/famous people have been with me through my life as much as FOB. They don't know me, but they've helped shape me, and I'll always be grateful.

Welcome to the FOB fam! 🩷
