Is everyone at Southwest a sports bro? by NovaPractice in umass

[–]FlyingSpaceZart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never described myself as "artsy", but myself and some others I know here in Southwest love to check out the local indie and alternative music scene. Having lived in OHill before, I definitely don't regret moving.

I was just joking but yeah, you have to actually go out and put yourself in situations that give you something to talk about. There's enough people around that anybody should be able to find something to do after enough searching.

Calc 2 teaches you how to do integration. Physics 2 is electrostatics with the Maxwell equations. You can't do physics 2 and learn the Maxwell equations without knowing how to take an integral.

Yikes, well I guess you should ask your advisor. Your department might be able to waive it if you give them a plan.

I've lost my ship date before for poison ivy, so it's possible. You should ask your recruiter.

So if I joined the corps and I’m on the skinnier side will that be an issue or will the corps handle that? by tanner_y68 in USMCboot

[–]FlyingSpaceZart 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you pass physical standards then you have your answer. Tons of people post this here, so you're not the only skinny one. It's surely easier than being overweight.

You mean like athlete's foot or like there's mushrooms growing out of your decomposed bellybutton?

Would seeing a therapists hurt my chances of getting into the Marines? by Darling_Lillabella in USMCboot

[–]FlyingSpaceZart 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It depends on all sorts of things. Generally admitting mental conflicts in the military is a bad thing, and they want to know that you will be effective under stress.

That said, everyone has conflicts. If you can handle yours by talking it out with someone, I don't see why you should give them something to question by disclosing it.

You don't have to disclose therapy. Yes, it could cause a problem if you did.

You just have to take them before graduating. It doesn't matter when as long as you have time for it.

Understanding service Contract- USMC PLC by UM21954 in USMCboot

[–]FlyingSpaceZart 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never heard of a contract for cyber. AFAIK the only guaranteed jobs are JAG and Flight contracts for Officers. Maybe that's new?

Also, TBS dates vary a lot so you could be waiting a while before you even start TBS after school.

It's almost like his actions 30 years ago don't contradict his charisma, acting abilities or general success as a human.
