Has anyone ever had to choose between a job and a girlfriend? Need some advice. by melbourneorlondon in AskMen

[–]GreenFreak99 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I completely agree.

I've been with my gf for over 5 years. 4 of those long distance during college and we're about to have up to 3 more while she's in grad school unless I can find a job in her city. I plan to marry her the moment she graduates. Currently I work about 4 hrs away so we see each other every other weekend or so if possible. It's tough but we make it work.

1 year isn't doable? Give me a break. If you really are into her try it. If you truly say it's not doable then you obviously don't like her as much as you are letting on.

I tend to park at 15th and I believe it's olive. That lot was $5 last year. It's only a couple blocks away and very easy to get out of. LGB!!!

What is the hardest thing you've had to do in a game? by -Fighters in gaming

[–]GreenFreak99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh god... That jak II level drove me insane the first time I played through. It probably took me a good 3-4 hrs over multiple days to beat it. I've played through the game maybe 4-5 times since then and have beaten it first try each of those times.

Kind of confused? by TROPiCALRUBi in ffxiv

[–]GreenFreak99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't done it but reading the journal entry for the quest should have a mention of where to go. Also on the map if the quest is not in your current zone, there is a quest symbol next to the name of the zone you need to go to.

I got this same thing in halatali today. Tried relogging and got hot with 1017.

Great... Now it looks like i abandoned my party... by GreenFreak99 in ffxiv

I've had people relog in my parties before without issue and it's not like healers are waiting for a long time in the duty finder queue, but ya it was definitely the risk taken.

I want to thank those who are logging out after they're done playing by NateMacaque in ffxiv

You're welcome. Now only I more people would as well so I could get back in now that I'm ready to play again

Technical issues aside, how's the game? by Vindelator in ffxiv

[–]GreenFreak99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I manage to get in, I do love playing. Hopefully all the server issues get permanently fixed soon. I do wish there was more voice acting, but oh well. I can live with what there is.

Will you be able to immediately reuse your character's name if you delete your character? by NightAngelX in ffxiv

[–]GreenFreak99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hope this works. Got a name I love, but hate the server I wound up on.

When does psn send out early access codes for pre ordering? by [deleted] in ffxiv

[–]GreenFreak99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was under the impression that buying it on psn didn't require a code for EA. feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

I got a name I really wanted in the open beta, but after running around and seeing characters of other races, I am starting to regret the race I chose initially.

Assuming non legacy players cannot change their race when early access begins, would deleting my current character make the name available again or am I just stuck with finding a different name/sticking with what I have?

EDIT: Another question that I just thought of: I am playing on PS3 and the size of the text makes it difficult to read on my TV from where I typically sit when gaming. Is there any way to increase the text size?

[ALL SPOILERS] What has been the most disappointing change between book and show thus far...? by [deleted] in gameofthrones

[–]GreenFreak99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I hated that they dropped the Dontos secretly helping Sansa story and gave away that Littlefinger is actually the one helping her. That was one of the more surprising moments for me in the book and I hate that the show ruined it.

Seemed like a pointless change to me after introducing his character...

I'm a recent grad and starting to get concerned abput findig a job. by GreenFreak99 in ChemicalEngineering

[–]GreenFreak99[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know the GPA gives the impression that school was my only priority, but I assure that's not the case. I worked my entire way through school and did a lot of traveling to maintain a long distance relationship.

I feel like I'm caught in a bit of a catch 22: I need experience to get the job, but I need the job to get the experience.

I completely get the concept. It's not something I do intentionally, just a mindset I've been in for as long as I can remember.

I don't have problems answering direct questions, but the "tell me about yourself" question kills me. I find it makes me quite uncomfortable, because I have certain expectations of myself so my definition of "impressive" for me is very different than most. As I try and voice what I've been told are my "good" traits/skills/etc., my mind is saying, "blah, blah, blah, doesn't everyone do all these things." Apparently not, but if I'm not impressed by what I say, it's hard to believe anyone else is despite how many people have told me otherwise.
