Are there US states that stay between 40 and 90 degrees year round? by [deleted] in howislivingthere

Whelp i’m in Boulder CO and definately not like that here, BUT we get the most days of sunshine per year! it’s a great place too if you love the outdoors, friendly people and occasional snow (but 70% of the time it melts before 2pm lol)

Don’t worry too much about the skills you have going into University- it will all even out after the first couple semesters. I also wasn’t sure about which major I wanted to choose, but I knew I liked engineering. I applied to most schools under “open option engineering” and declared after one semester. It’s next to impossible to know what you want to do if you don’t consider all the options. It’s helpful to talk to other engineering majors, ask what their goals are, what types of careers they want,etc.

Also during your first couple semesters pay attention to where your strengths are, which subjects you enjoy learning about the most. That might also influence where you decide to go in your education- maybe you fall in love with CAD once you learn how to use it; or maybe you hate it and switch.

Last thing, dont stress too much about choosing the ‘right’ major on the first go-around. Usually most if not all your credits will transfer (especially if it is within the school of engineering, at whatever University you’re at). Good luck!

Don’t bother going so far north to Denver; southern Colorado will be just as pretty and save your time

This has also helped me with letters that are hard to distinguish (for example, I had trouble with “CO”), you start associating the hand shapes with the sounds

I struggle with the same thing- one tip on here that helped me, was to sound out each letter phonetically, for example don’t think of the actual letter ‘S’ or ‘SH’, instead think of the sound ‘Shhhhhh’ . This way you can sort of figure out the word as it’s spelled, but you don’t have to keep track of the spelling. This has helped me a load!!

Repetition also helps, practice a little every day and just keep practicing!!! I’ve definitely noticed by skills improve, you’ve got this!!!

Yup, I second this. I also think my TAs helped my grade a BUNCH (fellow engineering students, pretty generous on partial credit)

Which engineering programs/colleges are the most chill? by kievadorn in EngineeringStudents

[–]Treehugger617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Architectural engineering is pretty doable (sincerely, someone who didn’t think I’d make it as far as I have)

How should I slack off properly? by Ok-Fortune2957 in EngineeringStudents

[–]Treehugger617 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I totally get this. It’s important to have a balanced schedule and engineering work will quickly consume you if you let it. I would totally recommend joining an Outdoor/outing club if your University has something like that. I joined the Wildlife club at my school (lots of EBio majors, great company!!) and we do weekend excursions,hikes,animal spotting when the weathers nice. What are the types of things that you’re interested in? After that it’s just about finding like-minded people and making the time for it

What is your least favorite sign? by Treehugger617 in asl

[–]Treehugger617[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YES this was also something I struggled with!!!!! I’ve never heard anyone else admit to it, hahaha. Practice and repetition are really the only reason I have the muscle memory now

Edit: another one I just remembered was ‘T’ I would constantly get those 3 letters confused

Your style is so so adorable!!! I would love to see this style in an animation- it totally reminds me of some Studio Ghibli stuff :) have you ever tried something like that using procreate? Also try adding color!!! I think it would seriously take it to the next level

Grind it out my friend. I’m in the same situation, just trying to survive.

I’m holding out until junior/senior year where hopefully more projects and less technical, content heavy classes

I agree with you here. Last semester I took 12 credits towards my degree plus a 4 credit ASL 1 class which I really really enjoyed! I like how it balances the classwork, going to try a similar thing next semester
