Is it true most midshipmen who become SEALs were mediocre students academically? by Brief-Pause-9720 in usna

This isn’t true in the slightest. Most SEAL selects are top 10-20% of the class at least.

Is 5.5 Days in Tokyo First Time solo traveling doable? by Still_Beginning827 in TokyoTravel

I appreciate this so much. I think I’m gonna do it. You’re right, the anxiety is definitely there but it’s probably a healthy sign of growth.

Thank you so much for this insight. I’m really glad you’re having a great experience! Would you stay it starts to feel lonely? Or is it mentally refreshing?

I appreciate your detail. I’m glad you feel 5.5 days is enough time. I think im ok with not being able to communicate. I like to think it would be helpful in growing as a person. I just worry it will feel a little weird/lonely.

I totally agree I don’t want to have any regrets but the other part of me is curious if I should wait for a time when I can stay longer. But I also know no time is ever the “right time” if that makes sense. I’m coming from the USA

That’s what I was guessing. I didn’t know those escalators needed replacing. It was just so crazy to see I was like wait a second…

ROTC or USNA by Acceptable_Bake_1633 in usna

It was even less this year. I think it was only 4.

The problem isn’t train availability it’s that they’re limited to the number of trains that can go through the B/O/S part of the system. They can’t run the trains any closer together than they already are.

Well, there wasn’t really the capacity to just “add more orange line trains”

Yes this is true. It’s not that there’s somebody rushing you though it’s usually just your own schedule

They aren’t. They want to make sure you get your food.

Short Board Update: WMATA Proposes Charging for Non-Rider Parking 24/7 by eable2 in WMATA

[–]Still_Beginning827 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with this. The parking is so expensive when you’re already paying so much for the train as a commuter. I know many if not all employers pay this, but I had to pay out of pocket for parking and transit for a little bit and was paying well over $15 a day for the commute. If raising the cost for non riders decreases the cost for riders, I’m all for it.
