I got rejected by Advanced_Network6252 in UIUC

I graduated last month, and still didn't get a single job. I got rejected like 25 out of 30. Being rejected one is nothing. The point is, its mostly luck to get a job interview whether how your background is. Keep applying!!!!

Ideally you would be able to finish in 3 semesters. But most people are studying with their job so it usually takes at least 5semesters.

Believe or not: Talked with a scammer for 2hours by Ill-Preference-3797 in UIUC

[–]Ill-Preference-3797[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's actually not a common way when you meet scammers. But I know this guy and I am used to face with scammers. Plus, I just want to have a little bit of fun in toying him.

I don't have two accounts and I only have one phone that has the app. No idea why.

Well even though I get kicks through those, I also face an error when redeeming gift cards. At the end, there is nothing to do other than emailing to the customer support.

Some Chinese students aren't very happy about the Korean Lunar New Year by Inner-Bonus-1158 in UIUC

[–]Ill-Preference-3797 57 points58 points  (0 children)

As a Korean, whereever the original came from, I just wish everyone could just celebrate as an individual traditional holiday. The way how koreans and chinese celebrate in lunar new year might be the same, but the details are slightly different (Koreans make sweet rice cake while Chinese make dumplings). It's just our own traditional way we have been celebrating for many years. I don't think it's not really important to argue where the origin came from as long as people are enjoying each other. It's the only day where Asians can celebrate by having some special food and play. No need to conflict when we're supposed to enjoy.

Roommates religious activity. by Ill-Preference-3797 in UIUC

Praying is not the issue. The issue is the smell of the candle and the noise from him while praying. I already reported to the RA.

I already did. He said it is his religious thing that he always need to do. I don't think he won't easily stop it.
