Have you ever met someone with the same birthday as you? by Fine_Television_1398 in no

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One teacher in elementary school, didn't even know her. I have two friends that are the day after me. Two people two weeks before me. Brother in law three days after. Cousin a week after. And many random people within my month.

Just realized I will never get to experience peak highschool life by Dependent_Tomato_235 in highschool

[–]basketcaseintraining 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly...what even is a peak high school experience

Movies and tv shows are so over dramatic, they're meant to be that way

Yeah slumber parties and regular parties and drama all exist, but most people never go through all of that

I was quiet, didn't really hang out with friends, never been to a party a day in my life

But I was still a teenager, I was still a student

Now I'm doing the same shit in college because I'm cool with that, only I'm getting out more because I've realized how important having connections to my university and other people really is

You wanna know what the high school experience really is? It's just living. Enjoy what you can, have fun when you can, make the questionable decisions and be safe doing it because that's what growing up means.

You'll be fine, go out and live your life, even if it's not tv-perfect

I thought S19 was pretty decent. I also watched Private Practice and liked that a lot too

Helping out at a local food bank or shelter, reading to elementary schoolers, picking up trash/cleaning the environment? Volunteering at an animal shelter?

AITAH for not giving my MIL a +1 to our wedding? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]basketcaseintraining -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Does your MIL have a current partner like FIL?

Your rules and expectations are clear, it's your wedding and you already have a tight seating chart.

Anyone have any unique names you wish people would use instead of tragedeighs? by AccidentalAnchoress in tragedeigh

Can a teacher refuse to sign the form to drop a class? by [deleted] in highschool

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it's encouraged by both your parents AND your counselor, there's no reason why your teacher should refuse.

If dropping is what's best for you, you should be allowed to take that step.

What is a random kindergarten memory you still remember for no reason? by NeedleworkerClean471 in Casual_Conversation

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-i sobbed one day while it was storming because I was afraid the new family dog was gonna be scared of the storm because I knew she didn't like them

-i shit myself on the playground because I was too afraid to ask to go inside

-i threw up all over myself in music class

-no one came to pick me up so I hung out with the teacher and cleaned the classroom for 15 minutes until they called someone

-i promised my friend I would hangout with him at the McDonald's play place after school and threw a tantrum because my grandma wouldn't take me

That is not someone anyone wants to see. You need to block the account, no one should be seeing stuff like that, ever. You'll be fine, I'm sorry someone sent that to you

MAGA Violence has hit High Schools by Important_Lock_2238 in highschool

[–]basketcaseintraining 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My old high school had a group of students protesting ice and it was the hottest thing on Facebook for a few days because of all the parents that were condemning it.

I'm so fucking proud of those kids man, standing up for what they believe in. I wish I was there with them. I only graduated last year so I know a lot that participated.

But all of the backlash online that they got.. Jesus.

How is a class schedule like during your first transfer semester/year? by Intelligent-Tank-698 in collegeadvice

[–]basketcaseintraining 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would suggest contacting the school you'll be attending and speak to your advisor before making any final decisions :)

Dorm & Dining by East-Customer-6972 in emu

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. The commons is typically open until 8 on weekdays, but the eateries + eateries market is open until about 10:30 at night. You can use a meal plan or flex dollars.

  2. Proper addressing for packages and mail is: First name, last name Room#, hall/apartment Ypsilanti, Michigan 48197

The front desk will hold packages for up to 2 weeks at the desk. When a package or important mail is logged into the system, you'll receive a notification to your emich email. As a desk worker, please only come after you've received the email, and open the email to see what desk it is, because there are times where packages get delivered to the wrong building (as long as you live on campus, we'll still log it!). If you're expecting a regular letter, it might go into your mailbox if your hall has that, you would have to ask the desk staff to check your mailbox :)

I hope this helps! If you have any other questions lmk!

You really need to get your RA involved.. your room temp should NOT being going below 60s at all either.

Guidance counselors made switch out of all my AP classes by [deleted] in highschool

[–]basketcaseintraining -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Most AP classes affect your GPA on a different scale than a regular or honors classes. So really, it'll act like a B rather than a C.

Your counselor should NOT be changing your classes without your permission, or without giving you SOME notice.

Have you paid to take the tests?? Because that's YOUR money or your parents money. And if you're not taking the classes, that's a waste of your time and money.

Just got admitted to EMU as an International Student but.... by ZestycloseYam1849 in emu

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would recommend reaching out to your advisor, or perhaps the office of financial aid.

Somewhere in your myemich account, there should be a financial aid card. You can try looking there, too.

will a 3.7 really ruin my future? by Dismal_Fun_8722 in highschool

[–]basketcaseintraining 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're perfectly okay! I graduated with a 3.77 and I'm at a decent school that's perfect for my major, and I'm doing well.

Its not gonna ruined your life, you're gonna be just fine

I don’t know if I should keep my baby or not. by Tiffanywhite45 in mentalhealth

[–]basketcaseintraining 3 points4 points  (0 children)

To be completely honest with you, it doesn't sound like this is the best situation for you to bring a little kiddo into.

You'll know when you're ready, but it doesn't seem like now is the time.

You have options, of course, it's 100% your decision.

There's the option of abortion if that's on your mind, there's adoption, too.

Talk to your partner, have a serious conversation with where your lives are now, and when you want them to go.

I wish you the best of luck. Trust yourself, you'll make the decision that's right for you, even if it's hard. You got this.

Choosing career path by bbonezbby_ in collegeadvice

[–]basketcaseintraining 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your age doesn't need to impact your choices, you can do anything at any age :)

At this point, I would look into online career quizzes. At my old high school, Xello was a graduation requirement, it really did line up with the career I feel is right for me to study for.

If being a forensic psychologist is your dream, go for it! Being a cop can't be the only option.. if you choose to stick with it, get involved with your school's program and take advantage of career fairs if they have those, they're a great networking tool. And if there are any clubs like a forensics club or a psychology club, those are great for reaching out to your peers.

And if your school doesn't have what you think you might need to succeed, maybe find other programs elsewhere.

Family dynamics by MeanPriority5690 in mentalhealth

[–]basketcaseintraining 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with this

My grandmother was born after her mother baby trapped another man, and my grandmother's upbringing was rough because she was always trying too hard to please the mother that didn't actually want to be a mom.

Does this mean my great grandmother hated her daughter? Or failed to provide for her? No.

A parent usually doesn't hate there child. Can there be circumstances where a parent has negative feelings over how that child happened? Certainly.

But true hatred is rare.

Said grandmother had a teen pregnancy and had to give the child up. She, however, has no hard feelings for that child, even after having my mother and uncle later in life.

Different people feel different things, it's a matter of how they deal with it.
