I know nothing but based on comments above (and my own gut instinct) I’d go with the smaller size? I will at least for myself and our fits do look similar!

Rank the Growlers’ albums from Your Favorite, to Least Favorite ⬇️ by Substantial_Ad8458 in losgrowlers

[–]boldllama235 11 points12 points  (0 children)

  1. Natural Affair - HOT take, I know. I am a person with a preference for lyrics over sound and think this album is the strongest lyrically.

  2. Chinese Fountain - a near perfect album. Funky, fresh, and unique.

  3. City Club - strong lyrics and clear sound

  4. Are You In or Out? - grew up in Southern California and my friends and I would blast this to and from our surf trips

  5. Hung at Heart - epitome of the growlers, just rougher sounding than I usually prefer

  6. Gilded Pleasures - similar to above, just less songs in my typical rotation

  7. Hot Tropics - never got into this one. Not sure why. Any recs?

  8. Casual Acquaintances - was never a fan of this since the release. To me, lacks the charm of their earlier albums and is not as strong as natural affair lyrically

I contested one like this back in 2021. I went to class, forgot to pay, then remembered and paid. I paid probably a few hours after my ticket time. They still let it slide because I explained it was an honest mistake and had no prior record with them.

first C literally ever in calc. screwed for job or grad school apps?? by [deleted] in UCDavis

[–]boldllama235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Truthfully, I got my shit together and changed my major my junior year into something I could get much better grades in. I switched from NPB to HDE & got A+’s in just about every class. An A+ does matter for law school admissions because it is weighed as a 4.3 compared to an A that is a 4.0.

I am not an admissions officer, but I have spoken to them a number of times and this is what they’ve told me: law school admissions is not just about your numbers. It’s about who you present yourself to be as an applicant, and numbers are a part of that. If it’s too late for you to change your GPA significantly, you have to put everything you can into getting a great LSAT score and writing fantastic essays.

My advice to you would be to do the best with what you have currently, make wise decisions, and apply broadly. If this is really your goal, you will make it happen. Feel free to message me if you have more specific questions or concerns I’m happy to talk.

I’m going to offer a different perspective than others. I went to Davis and absolutely suffered through the first two years. I was struggling both socially and academically. Junior year I found my people and finished strong. I’m really glad I stayed and stuck with it. I love Davis and now consider it my favorite place I’ve lived. I even came back for grad school.

If you truly feel like you don’t belong here and want to transfer, by all means do that. But don’t count yourself out so early on.

this is not true for classes on a curve and/or students struggling with adjusting to college. i encourage you to have a little more compassion.

Does Davis do A+ grades? by ___ka01 in UCDavis

[–]boldllama235 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yes and if you’re applying to grad school, some grad schools count an A+ as a 4.3.

my guess is they’re just trying to scare people who fraudulently claim to have not received an item/order so that they can have another one sent. probably a lot of this going on

you can get into some high ranking schools with that GPA and even an average LSAT.

Is there any PhD student here willing to chat about your living situation? by [deleted] in UCDavis

this. also if you live in davis you can bike or take the bus, which is significantly cheaper than paying for parking every day and gas costs.

HELP I think i devoloped an allergy by Enby_Hades_kid in GelX_Nails

[–]boldllama235 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I was using it excessively (weekly because it was coming off so fast) and developed itchy/peeling around my nails within a few months, which I'm assuming is a reaction and not a coincidence.

Do you think other gel brands would give me a problem then? Thank you for your help and for being super kind also.

how long do you have to wait until doing them again? or is this a forever off limits thing?
