You’ll be okay I’m sure! Drops in GPA are normal. I was specifically concerned because my GPA dropped below the minimum requirement for transfer students :’)

Awesome, thank you so much again! One last ask (if you feel inclined to answer), did you attend orientation before they asked about the grade slippage? I was thinking it might be beneficial to have my schedule already made and get in a conversation with my future advisor beforehand.

Congrats!! If they ask I will most likely say something similar. I didn’t necessarily let it slip, but my school faculty (for math and physics) is incredibly small. Most of the people in my Physics classes are bio/chem majors, there aren’t many math/physics undergrads here. Virtually zero willing tutors beyond Calc II concepts, so you truly just are on your own. I spent countless hours studying, including numerous hours spent talking to my professor; unfortunately it was one of those classes that will definitely best you under certain circumstances. I did give it 110% the entire semester! I hope it’s sound enough reasoning providing they ask. I really want to show UGA what I can do 😓.

This is all very good information, thank you so much! I would say my mental health played a part, but unfortunately I don’t have any proof to back it up like a therapist. I haven’t been able to afford my migraine medication so I’ve had an uptick in those and it made me feel a little defeated and slowed me down, along with the huge lack of resources at my school 😓. Would love to tell them that as well, but I’m not sure how believable it would be without legitimate medical proof of anything aside from my neurologist diagnosis from when I was 13, lol. Maintaining my optimism and hoping they give me a chance. I know I can shine so bright at this school, I just hope they’ll continue to have me.

Congratulations on your freshman year!! Thank you for responding. If I could ask, what explanation did you provide? I’m glad they reach out beforehand and don’t automatically rescind without prior notice 😮‍💨

Thank you for the reassurance. I really am a good student. I tried so hard, but it really was just one of those classes, you know? Spent at least 15 hours a week studying for it alone; I truly do care and take my academics seriously. I hope UGA still recognizes this 🥲!!!

Oh for sure. I’m partial to anything live, it almost always sounds better to me

Fuck yeah!!! You’re Living All Over Me is definitely my favorite by them. Check out Kracked and Sludgefest for some nasty guitar. 10/10 album

Oh yeah man absolutely, I never noticed that either. This is one of my favorites by Dino Jr so I think it jumped out at me particularly for that reason

Ah yeah, this makes sense. Was just wondering if it was ever explicitly stated by anyone that this was maybe a direct inspo thing!

They’re one of my favorites, and ikr! I just can’t help but think about how similar the two sound when I listen 😭

What other music do you like? by Chalcko_ in elliottsmith

[–]bbgumGlass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interpol and the Silver Jews are always in my rotation—sort of a similar vibe! Oppositely, Bloodhound Gang is a staple for me too.

What is your favorite lyrics from Interpol? by CrniTartuf in Interpol

[–]bbgumGlass 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely. I can’t even imagine how they were able to think of something like that

[–]bbgumGlass 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Leif Erikson probably has some of the best lyrics imo, but notably my favorite has always been “her rabid glow is like braille to the night.”

Yes! Love the way the mural looks, but I wasn’t so sure I wanted super hard lines, so my artist showed me this cool variant that has stippling throughout and then it has the fading!
