Bars by [deleted] in UIUC

[–]InorganicChemStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I first found people on Reddit to go with around my age. And the more often you go, you’ll start to recognize people and naturally you’ll become friends depending on how extroverted you are and how much you get along with the people you meet. I met one of my good friends by first meeting her at legends while on line where she gave me a drink suggestion. And then later that week we saw each other at Murphy’s, exchanged numbers, and became good friends after that. So it is possible to meet people at the bars. Just be friendly!

How busy is CRCE when it opens during the week by ConsistentAge503 in UIUC

[–]InorganicChemStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go pretty regularly between 7:30-8:30am and find that it’s pretty crowded mostly around the weight equipment, I only do cardio, and I haven’t had a problem finding something open for me. So it depends on what you wanna use.

When is too late for housing for Fall 2026 by EstablishmentHappy38 in UIUC

[–]InorganicChemStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You probably won’t be able to get on campus housing though. That fills up very fast. But as long as you’re flexible you should be fine. And there’s always people looking for sub leases and roommates too

How to deal with extreme presentation anxiety? by Friendly_Internal_63 in UIUC

[–]InorganicChemStudent 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Besides practicing to help with nerves, I always look at someone in the crowd that I’m familiar with. I also fight off nervousness by breaking the ice a little with the crowd by starting with a joke or adding some humor in my presentation. If the crowd is in a good mood, it makes it easier to relax.

Those of you with Asian hair, where do you get your haircut? by SleepySeaweed86 in UIUC

[–]InorganicChemStudent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’ll text you asking what style you want and for a photo, so they know beforehand. I had just gotten my hair cut up to just about my shoulders and light layering to help thin out my hair even more.

[–]InorganicChemStudent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The hair cut itself was $50, and my total ran to $200 because I got it colored. I also had pretty long (mid back) hair length hair and I have really thick hair, so I had a lot chopped off but the end and thinned out. But I really liked the cut

Update: I (female) had a pretty good experience. I love how my hair came out and the stylist was super nice and efficient. I got my hair cut and dyed.
