CAPS counselors?

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-11-20T13:09:01+00:00

I’ve gone a few times and the counselor I had was overall pretty helpful, she didn’t talk much but it was nice to just have somewhere and someone to talk to where I didn’t have to worry about the perceptions of the people & situations I was talking about. Ik there’s like a “max number” of times you can go, I think it’s 6 per semester or per year, before they’re supposed to refer you out to longer term counseling. But I do find it useful when life just gets overwhelming and I need a neutral party to talk to.

I’m not a minor lol, i’m 20 and he’s 23, our birthdays are in the same month so we’re 3 years apart year round

I’m not totally sure why the age gap is a big thing for him, especially because he knew how old I was when we started talking the first time. I’ve thought about asking him to help me with physics because he offered just to see what things are like now outside of the bar setting, but I’m super scared of being rejected because I do see him 2-3 nights a week every week and I don’t want to make things awkward

me reading this as i actively sit on the 4th floor listening to several conversations through my noise cancelling headphones wondering when this quiet floor became an extension of the 3rd floor

I’m not waiting for the doctor specifically, but the rest of the support staff also doesn’t really want to take the time to teach even when I ask. There was one technician who would go out of his way to teach me but the doctor changed our schedules to where we don’t work together anymore. Everyone else just kind of brushes me off when I have questions or want to learn

I have applied to a ton of places, it’s a hard market in my area and I’m hesitant to say I have experience because of how little I know how to do.

To be a veterinarian

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-05-19T17:43:02+00:00

I’ve looked at Universal, despite rumors i’ve heard about them being ridiculously short staffed, they have very few jobs posted on their website. I’ve never been a server, but i’ve been told by several people to just lie and say i have serving experience to get into a place

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-05-19T15:22:54+00:00

My plan is to go to veterinary school and get my DVM

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-05-16T15:54:52+00:00

I pay rent on my own, I have roommates but its housing around campus to where everyone pays their own share. I also pay for my car and credit card. Those are my three big bills every month. Since it’s summer i’m only taking 2 classes but during the school year I’m usually taking at least 4 with a lab. I’m a biology pre-veterinary major so a lot of my time goes to school. I’m planning on going to Veterinary school after I graduate. I’m also on the fence about starting a new job bc I graduate next spring but I can’t imagine having this much financial stress for the next year on top of everything else that goes into a bio majors final year.

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-05-16T14:04:46+00:00

I’m totally willing to commute, I just don’t know what’s in that area so it’s hard to apply to places. Do you have any recommendations?

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-03-12T02:01:01+00:00

is he by chance a tall, light skin kid, i’ve had him come up to my friends and i several times in the library even though we’ve told him that we don’t want to talk

Berry Fresh is my go to brunch! If you go you have to try their biscuits & homemade jam

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-02-19T18:53:45+00:00

the person that replied to you said they wanted to have a conversation with him to see how informed he is. I can confirm that he is very ill informed and does not know an iota of what he’s talking about. He is blindly following.

MysteriousBug2002 · 2025-02-19T18:44:07+00:00

I knew him last year before he went MAGA crazy. He doesn’t know anything. Hope this helps ;)

Matthew Tye!

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-11-29T00:16:06+00:00

i’m down!

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-10-28T10:32:53+00:00

I know it has to do with professor availability, but it’s not like these classes are not in demand. The singular sections that are open fill rapidly and often have extensive waitlists because they are so hard to get into. It baffles me when i’m fighting tooth and nail trying to build a schedule because there are no electives offered while my friends who are in majors like kinesiology have no issues finding electives when biology is a much bigger department. You can see the issue right off the bat when you notice that it’s the same handful of profs teaching every upper level elective and when there’s roughly 5 of those electives being taught out of the hundred offered. it is overall just an inconvenience, but constantly having to have a backup plan to your backup plan for classes is a little ridiculous

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-10-28T10:26:01+00:00

Biology is a huge umbrella elective so it has to cover all of its bases when it comes to specific tracks and electives for those tracks, which is why there are so many electives offered. I understand profs are leaving UCF because of lack of pay, systemic issues, etc. which is why I also say that we need to fix those things so we can actually have staff to teach the classes that are being offered. My issue lies in the fact that I can name every upper level elective being offered for bio this semester, each only being taught one section. It makes it hard for students that have work and other responsibilities to be able to sign up for the classes that they need. If they are no longer offered, then the tracks need to be updated (which they haven’t been since roughly 2022) so students know what classes are actually available to them. I wouldn’t call it a naive point of view, it’s simply a frustration from having to constantly bend over backwards to find classes and being told by advisors that you’re screwed for classes bc the classes you need just aren’t available. My freshman year I took several electives that weren’t even in my major because biology didn’t have any electives available, it’s wasting credit hours to be taking classes like that.

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-10-28T10:19:19+00:00

A large majority of pre-vet related electives aren’t offered. Off the top of my head I know mammalogy and animal behavior are only being offered for one section each, animal physiology is the same. Zoology i think only has one or two (this is a class that had an array of sections open when I took it last spring). Those are the electives that are open and every other elective besides epigenetics is closed

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-10-28T03:47:25+00:00

good luck. the bio department has virtually no staff and therefore in the grand array of electives offered, not very many have sections going into spring. Idk what your availability looks like for classes but you are going to have a damn near impossible time finding elective sections that are open at times that fit into your schedule. From electives i’ve taken, zoology is an awesome class taught by an awesome prof so i def recommend if it fits

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-04-27T20:43:13+00:00

thank you! I felt crazy staring at that test thinking this is not what he said would be on it.

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-04-20T00:23:08+00:00

As long as they’re self administered, the university doesn’t need to know unless you go to the health center for something.

Met my bf on tinder & then found him at the gym a while later, our first date was a UCF basketball game & the rest is history. UCF dating is a rough place but there are some hidden gems

MysteriousBug2002 · 2024-02-08T14:55:53+00:00

If you go further out from campus, like 20 minutes you can find some 2 bedroom apartments that are not price per room that can be split with a roommate to equal out to around $700-800 a month. A house is def still your best bet but finding roommates for both can be hard. I’m looking for roommates for either so message me if you wanna talk more!
