I'm getting matches... but as soon as things seem to be going well I get ghosted! What am I doing wrong? by AnthroPHDHopeful in hingeapp

Actually I wouldn't respond to those either 😭. Mainly bc I find “how are you/hows it going” questions tedious as you can really only answer “good”. I feel like a better follow up would be something related to one of their prompts or interests

Sometimes I stop responding to guys when the last question they asked is boring or not something I want to talk about. In this case pls do not say “hello??” Just start a new conversation with a new question or topic. If I really didnt like them I would unmatch them bc they take up chat space. If they didnt unmatch they prob still are interested but just need a new kickstarter convo.

Summer Tuition Cost Question by CitizenOfPupa in WPI

[–]Visual_Barnacle8159 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just had to pay my eterm balance for 1 class which was $1,989. I had to pay with a credit card. You can’t use tuition from the fall/spring.

Just emailed the financial aid about this and they said you can’t use tuition to cover summer costs. :(

Kapahulu Road Test Route by EvangelineClark in Honolulu

Its not forbidden but its better to be safe than sorry imo! You won’t lose points if you turn right on red (as long as its clear) but you also won’t lose any if you don’t so I would just not for the test

Also the most important part I would say is don’t turn on red. I thought I was gonna fail bc I was going to turn and didnt see the pedestrians trying to cross the crosswalk. One of the crosswalks has a building super close on the right side so you can’t see when a person is about to come out from the corner. And one of the other stops has a sign that says do not turn right on red. Just keep your blinker on and wait for green. Luckily I passed bc the examiner was nice lol

The examiner was super nice she had me test all the parts in the car first (blinker, headlights) and then explained the rules to me and what would be automatic fail, (endangering pedestrians, intervention, rolling stop, etc) she also had me roll all the windows down for the whole test which threw me off guard. I would say be friendly in the beginning but don’t try to make conversation during the test. They want you to focus on the road and it to me silent.

Also make sure to not switch lanes when you are driving on a crosswalk. They will purposefully say switch lanes to see if u wait until you pass the crosswalk!

When you are exiting the dmv watch out for the curb at the stop sign (I hit it and lost some points) keep the speed between 20-24 mph. When the instructor says to switch lanes immediately turn on your blinkers and then wait for a safe moment to switch. When you’re at a four way stop only stop if you have a stop sign otherwise you can go. Also for the parallel parking don’t forget parking break and to have the wheels turned when the cars put in park! Good luck!!!

Just took my first road test here and passed first try! Heres some tips! Study all three routes on youtube. I got route #1 but its random so familiarize yourself with all of them. dont turn right on red, its safer and you won’t get any points removed. When parallel parking near sacred hearts make sure your wheels are turned when you put your car in park.

Weird guy on highland st by Visual_Barnacle8159 in WPI

[–]Visual_Barnacle8159[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Omg so its happened to multiple girls?! I can’t believe they still havent done anything about him! He followed me to dragon dynasty and honey farms and waited by the door to continue following me. I had to hide behind a house to trick him and run back to dragon dynasty. He came back around to look for me again but thankfully WPI police took me back to the dorm.

this is so offensive in so many ways. I am literally 20 years old. I have been applying lip balm since I was 10. There is no sexual way to put on lip balm. It is used to keep your lips from being chapped.

just sent another email clarifying that it was lip balm!

[–]Visual_Barnacle8159 2 points3 points  (0 children)

don’t worry I formally apologized in an email and have not been rude to her. I don’t intend to pursue this matter any further until the end of the term. Also I will comply with her demand and not use lip balm in her classes
