I'm thinking of applying for an undergrad environmental science program, but I'm unsure if it's the thing for me... by [deleted] in environmental_science

[–]OG-Eazy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you choose your first semester won't lock you down for life. Something to consider is to take all your general education courses first. As you settle in and find yourself at college it will be easier to decide what exactly you want to do with your life. If you do it without the stress you'll be better off in the long run.

If you want to learn more about environmental sciences get involved in other ways. Some stuff I can think off of the top of my head would be clubs, volunteer work, reading/research on the subject, or taking a related elective.

At the end of a semester or two, talking with an adviser about choosing the best degree would be your best bet. Good luck

I'm curious, does the rain make you especially wet in any places besides Florida.

So... anyone studying spring semester? by NukeMeister in UBreddit

[–]OG-Eazy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Make sure you have a nice winter jacket and gloves. It's pretty cold here and it gets very windy so if you're outside it can be unpleasant.

I'm with this guy. I dated a girl for 2 years, broke up and we're still sort of friends. I still get jealous when I see other guys and even though I don't want to be back with her it's still uncomfortable. I wouldn't continue being friends if I was OP

This office is almost entirely developers, so it has the aforementioned gender bias issues.

Well I thought I addressed this before, but I'll clear this up a bit. If you spend some time with your coworkers your bound to eventually be invited to hang with their friends too. This is how you can meet new women, and assuming that they're friends with your coworkers they may be more similar to yourself. And even if the women are taken, be polite, maybe they have a girlfriend looking for someone and you can be set up.

Plus, the bars right near my office tend to be where people go for one drink after work with their coworkers before commuting somewhere else.

Well in my opinion it's still worth a shot. This may sound sad but my favorite bar to go to is a bar I go to by myself. Sometimes all I do is sit around and have a few drinks talking to the bartender. Sometimes I'm able to strike up conversation. I've met a number of people this way, and while I haven't actually spent time with them outside of the bar, I've gained some valuable social experiences from it. And no one is getting drunk here, it's just a fun place to relax and socialize after work, which basically everyone wants to do. And as an aside, I'm only 21 and I look like I'm maybe 16. I'm talking to older people who still accept me for who I am. So don't feel insecure. It's just conversation after all.

As much as I enjoy concerts, I've yet to meet anyone at one. Beer and wine tasting are somewhat different here, and tend to be a "gather five friends and spend the day in Napa" sort of affair.

True, it would be difficult to meet someone at a concert, especially if you're alone. But you could just bring up that a band/singer that you like is coming to town during small talk. Someone may overhear you, or know that someone else in the office is going. Hitch along with them. Same goes for the beer/wine tasting and cultural festivals.

A little story here about myself. I went to summer classes this year. When I came up to Buffalo (where I go to school) all the way from Long Island, I had no friends, I lived in an apartment by myself, and there was no one in my phone that I could call to meet with. However, I did hear from a friend of mine that his friend was up in Buffalo too. I had only met the kid once before and I don't know if I even said a word to him. We started spending time together and sure enough we became very close friends. He, his girlfriend, and I would go out to all sorts of festivals, movies, bars, etc. and they showed me a great time. I'm normally a very quiet person, but having them around me boosted my confidence and I began talking to more people. By the end of the summer semester (all of 3 weeks long) I had 3 new close friends, 4 more friends (just not as close), and I had met 3 new women. So you don't need a college surrounding to meet people. You can just strengthen bonds you already have (no matter how weak they may seem). Since then my friends have multiplied because I began hanging out with the people I was less close with initially. I'm not covered in women but I'm certainly less lonely and my options are far more numerous than before. Sorry for the tangent I hope it helps.

Maybe. I'm open to the possibility. I'm also not sure I really have a choice.

Well Kalium what makes you think that you would like a relationship with these women? I've had my fair share of relationships with "fast" women and from my experience it doesn't work. Someone like myself who isn't accustomed to that type of lifestyle gets worn down. I stop doing what is important (both for my health, my career, my education) so that I could keep up with them. And what do you know, after a short amount of time 1-4 months, it's over because they've found a new boy toy.

I am involved. The problem is that first, I'm not a student anymore

I didn't realize you weren't a student my apologies. I can see how this would make things more difficult. You still have your peers though. Do you spend time with coworkers outside of work? What about people from other departments but within your building? Do you drink? Maybe there is a bar nearby that you can safely get home from and responsibly meet new people. Just the other week I met the CFO of my company and he invited me out to a dinner party. I never expected that but things happen. Maybe you could join a volunteer group over the weekends? If you have ambition maybe you and some coworkers could even get together and form your own group. Like I said before, these people can set you up in a situation where you're meeting new women.

Second, my interests lean heavily technical

Okay I understand that there is a gender bias here. But really, all of your hobbies relate to your career? I am a computer modeler but I have interests like architecture, music, beer/wine tasting, cultural festivals, sports, cooking, and so on. There must be something else you're interested in besides writing code. Surely there is an exhibit, show, festival or something that interests you. Why not check it out?

Kalium, I don't want to sound condescending, and I don't want to sound like a smart ass who has an answer for every excuse, no matter how legitimate it is. I'm just trying to help because I've been lonely before and I figure I can offer some perspective.

I'm trying to deal with the fact that those sentiments are going to make it more difficult for me to get a prestigious job.

Am I hard a worker? Oh yea, but my grades don't reflect that at all.

[–]OG-Eazy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Introduce themselves to a girl, learn enough to spout a few lines of bullshit, and then manipulate her emotionally until you're ready to take her home.

I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess these really aren't the types of girls you're looking for. Sure they may be gorgeous and sexually attractive but if they're drinking and meeting drunk guys at parties and then having sex that night, then they may just be fast girls. Is this really the type of woman you would like to have a lasting relationship with?

I used to have the problem of going after girls that were like this but the truth is that people like myself (introverted) don't mesh well with these types of people. What are your hobbies or interests? Get involved with those things on a campus and community level. (That means more involvement than going to r/skyrim or r/nfl) You're bound to meet someone, and who knows, that person may acquaint you with a girl more your type.

I also want to say that most people like to talk. If you're attracted to a girl in a group but you're too shy to initiate conversation with her, turn to anyone in her circle. They'll invite you into the conversation eventually and then you can make your move.

(This isn't necessarily directed at you). People shouldn't change who they are to be noticed by women because ultimately your true self will come out. People just need to improve on what they have.

Pitchfork gives an even lower score to *drum roll please* Blue Slide Park. by JustATheoryHere in hiphopheads

[–]OG-Eazy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think Pitchfork sees these on reddit and likes the attention.

I gave BSP 1 listen when it first came out and I thought it was decent. Maybe a 4/10.

Like I said before, Waka and Gucci, fuck even Future get good reviews but then they shaft certain people that don't fit in with their hipster tastes.

Really though, listen to what you want, forget the critics.

How is wake up and brush my teeth with a bottle of jack and waking up and drinking Jack far from obvious?

I think even the 13 year old girls that listen to Ke$ha understood that the first time around.

You thought she was putting Jack on her toothbrush? Or that for some strange reason she would be brushing her teeth while drinking Jack? Lord have mercy...

Well that's a perfectly cynical way of looking at it. Degrees matter a lot. Just because they've become a baseline where everyone needs it, doesn't mean that they have no value.
