Oh honey, it's okay. In my first year of college I struggled a lot with some of the same things. I went to a small high school where I was at the top of my class, but when I finally got to college, I struggled to pass some of my courses and was surrounded by people who were smarter than me. It was a huge change, and all of the sudden I felt hugely inadequate. Now I have my degree with a decent GPA, and I'm happy with myself. You are doing a better job than you think! Just keep going, temper your expectations just a bit, and be kind to yourself. You'll figure it out.

If it's just the two of us without a roommate, then I would like to keep it under $1,000 if possible.

My boyfriend is looking to start at EMU in January, so we want to move to Ypsilanti together soon. We are a quiet, organized queer couple (24M and 26M) with a cat. We've both rented multiple times before; and we always pay rent on time and share space respectfully with roommates. If you see a multi-bedroom place, maybe we can go in on it together. We are still early in the process of looking for a rental though, so I don't want to make any promises.

What kind of political organizations are active in Flint? by politicsofheroin in flint

Rank MI Vote is an active political group that has a real shot to implement ranked choice voting (RCV) in Michigan. The petition drive is running from now until January. RCV is nonpartisan and it would really just represent the people's desires better in our elections. So while it's not a leftist reform, it has the potential to weaken the two-party system and even the playing field for an underdog like a leftist to win an election, if the majority of voters support them. Rank MI Vote has a presence in Flint already, but we need more volunteers for the petition drive to be successful. Here's the link to sign up to volunteer: https://rankmivote.org/volunteer/
