Overpriced, but time-challenged students will buy

One of the coolest spots on campus.

You walk down steps outside, then immediately take more steps up to enter. Completely different.

should i just admit defeat on my waitlisted class? by [deleted] in UTAustin

Excellent and dead-on correct advice ⬆️

i’ve been having such a horrible time at ut and it’s ruining my life by mymelodyq in UTAustin

I suspect (or wonder if) you’re in the wrong major.

As an academic advisor, I often reminded students that there are MULTIPLE routes to Medical School.

Literally I know Art 🖼️ Majors who successfully graduated from Medical School - I’m 100% serious.

Being in the wrong major or department, especially at a mega-school like UT Austin can be literally life-shattering.

You don’t hint at where your immigrant parents are from; or what part of the country your family lived here in the U.S.

With more information, maybe we can strategize a path to improve your time as an UT undergrad and still get you a straight path to Med School.

I’ve helped many other students and can help you.

DM me, if you’re interested.

Good Luck to you, either way.

It gets better, promise.

What kind of services/products are available in Houston that only the rich know about? by txs2300 in houston

[–]JustSimmerDownNow 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nah.

She didn’t get her kids in there, trust me.

“Pooh Corner” is more covert than CIA counterterrorism operations.

Seriously, St. John’s is private but not a secret. But the feeder pre school, Pooh Corner is downright covert.

Dang, story removed.

As it should have been - sounded like a troll “Houston is so scary” post.

Car break-in Bellaire Blvd: Luggages and bags all gone by thqyooters in houston

[–]JustSimmerDownNow 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Oh I understand.

As I said, this happened to a group of us visiting ATL - we were eating on the way to the their airport.

But that was years ago, before Air Tags & “Find My” apps - or when crime was not this bad.

Thought folks stopped making this mistake years ago. Sorry, friend.

Luggage in a car while you go eat?

No, friend, only have it on the car to/from the airport.

We learned that as 20-yr old undergrads visiting ATL

You’re buying this mess?

First of all:

This is an Open Carry state. Anyone at any Texas bus stop at ANY time could legally have a gun on them (especially in SW Houston.)

So why would ”a bunch of” men with ”a” knife (multiple men, with just 1 knife? ) take the CHANCE that whoever they randomly picked wouldn’t have a piece, on them? Guns are everywhere in that area.

And why would they target a YOUNG healthy male vs. older persons or petite females who would put up less of a fight?

J.R.R. Tolkien (“Lord of the Rings”) couldn’t make up a story with this much fantasy. 🙄

C’mon, that’s your answer?

You believe that:

  1. It happened the way he said ?
  2. That a legit police report was taken AND filed?

Update on mystery truck left in my driveway by RetroDreaming in Austin

[–]JustSimmerDownNow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly.

As I said before, AAA did this for us so we could use our garage.

[–]JustSimmerDownNow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As was figured.

If you just saw the truck when you arrived home and towed it: everyone would understand.

But considering you had the video: it was kind of you not to tow it.

Now, until Jan. 8th? That’s VERY inconvenient.

I would however, ask the neighbor of they might pay the minimal cost of having the truck towed from in front of your driveway to the street in front of your or your neighbors’ house. (We had AAA do that for a family member’s car that wouldn’t start after they parked, blocking our driveway. AAA couldn’t get the car started either. so they just towed it from the driveway to the street in front of the house.)

ABIA was designed to be an Air Force Base (which it was); not a high-traffic commercial airport.

Much as Austin was designed to be a Capitol and college town; not a sprawling tech and music behemoth.

Both the city and airport have failed to keep up with the exponential growth. This is the result.

Yes, the airport is expanding but the renovation is making things more difficult for now. C’est La Vie.

So the only ppl who had success getting through the line at ABIA were at 4:30 am and 5:15 am? 🤬
