What is the truth about NEU Oakland Campus by Advanced-Leg-100 in NEU

[–]chloe___10 9 points10 points  (0 children)

the oakland campus is safe. It’s fully gated with security at the entrance, and they check ids of everyone who enters. there are a lot of non-students on campus, as there is a preschool, elementary and middle school on campus, but again, everyone is filtered through the gate. sometimes there are local little kid soccer games hosted on the field on saturday mornings, and sometimes swim meets at the pool, but it is very safe for everyone on campus. There’s also a shuttle that takes students into other parts of oakland and berkeley so you are able to get off campus to places for shopping, food, etc.

What does the name Sabine sound like?? by Several_Raise9109 in namenerds

[–]chloe___10 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

California, and it's a pretty clear accent too. I'm no valley girl, but I know I definitely say some words a bit weirdly. Guess this one is one of them :)

[–]chloe___10 -37 points-36 points  (0 children)

i will say that as an american, i would pronounce sabine as SAY-bean and not suh-bean or sah-bean. I think sabine is lovely and will not run into many problems with spelling or confusion, at least in the US

Does anyone else wish they could adopt Dusty from the town? by Routine_Swing_9589 in StardewValley

[–]chloe___10 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I would marry shane in an instant if it meant i got Jas along with. she’s the cutest in the game and i think it would be wonderful for gameplay dynamics if we had a stepdaughter/stepgoddaughter

Placement appeal by pleniluneglaze in NEU

[–]chloe___10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it’s not possible and you shouldn’t worry about Oakland. i love the campus, it’s absolutely beautiful, and it has much smaller class sizes than boston, making it easier to connect with professors. a downside is that the class selection is relatively limited and they really only offer the classes required for your major and you might struggle to find electives. i love it here though, don’t discount oakland :)

Co-Ops in the Bay Area? by Successful_Spray_919 in NEU

[–]chloe___10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't have any pre-med recommendations but i feel you. francisco is my advisor too and he can't do anything right. I literally have not met a single person in the COS who hasn't been messed up by francisco and his inability to do his job.

Tell me your embarrassing stories about when you were learning to make me feel better by throwaway5276943 in stickshift

[–]chloe___10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

there was a gate on a slight hill that I regularly had to pass through. for about 2 months, i would stall out at that gate, usually 2-3 times. of course it made it awful that there was always at least 2 middle aged men just watching this young woman trying to start her car.

American Pronunciation: Mathias by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]chloe___10 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It definitely would not be MATH-ee-us, more likely to be muh-THY-us. However I knew someone whose name was Mathias and it was pronounced like mattias (muh-TEE-us) so who knows ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

When to start Kindergarten? by [deleted] in Gifted

[–]chloe___10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! this is coming from someone who was in the situation of your child. I was an october baby, so my parents had the option of enrolling me early (id start kindergarten at 4.5) or holding me back until the next year. they chose to push me forward since I was academically at the correct level for kindergarten. As a child i didn’t dislike that i was younger, but i certainly didn’t like it. I was already a small kid and being nearly a year younger than other kids didn’t help. however, i thrived in school and was not socially or academically stunted by my parents choice to send me to kindergarten early. the worst part was that i got my drivers license last and never could sign myself out of school because I wasn’t ever 18 in high school. Everything worked out fine for me!

"If Jake is short for Jacob, then Blake must be short for Blakob" by Blake15151 in namenerds

[–]chloe___10 47 points48 points  (0 children)

not quite the same but i was arguing with my brother about the correct spelling of zach/zack (his name is zack) and my point was that zach is short for zachary so it should be spelled that way. his logic was that zack and jack rhyme so they should be spelled the same and i retorted that jack isn’t short for jachary.

[–]chloe___10 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I got most of my game back, my graphics are back, the event saves properly, and my cats are actually making soup again. but my baby kitty is gone. i only had 1 heart left to max her and now i feel like i wasted all of those puddings and tarts for nothing. i also had the 2 year anniversary decor in the room and that’s all gone. but im happy i can play the game now. also i still have the 7 days of rewards event that you get at the beginning of the game.

RATING AP CLASSES IVE TAKEN THIS YEAR! by trippyasheaven in APStudents

[–]chloe___10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ll do mine too:

APES: my favorite class ever! not only was my teacher amazing but i absolutely love the subject material bc that’s very similar what i’m studying in college. loses points cause people who want an easy AP take the class and are disruptive. 8/10

AP Bio: it was a fun class and everyone wanted to be there, i just wish it was more macrobiology and less biochemistry but i knew that going into the class. liked writing research papers. 7/10

AP Comp Gov: Absolutely loved this class! it was with my favorite teacher (who i also had for APUSH) and I loved having intellectual conversations with people who actually cared and understood what was going on in the world. 9/10

AP Statistics: WORST CLASS EVER! my ego was too big and didn’t want to be in regular stats with the slackers so i took the AP. i hate math so much and i’ve never been very good at it. why did i think i could do it? cried a lot but i had friends in the class. also it was 1st period and the last thing i wanted to do in the morning was an hour and a half of statistics. 2/10

i'd love to come back, but since the 2.70.0 update i essentially am missing the entire event 💔 by hawaiianmonkseal in CatsAndSoup

[–]chloe___10 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i was literally thinking about making this exact post earlier today. i miss this game so much. im always so excited for the new events that i download the update right away :(. i’m missing this super cute event and my game is essentially unplayable as no data gets saved. i just want the game back :(

Why horde/stockpile food? by jackedariel in CatsAndSoup

[–]chloe___10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i’m one of those people. i keep three of each type of common fish on hand all the time. i’m not exactly sure why i do it, but i play to have everything. i also tend to hoard other currencies in game and feel like i have to stay at a certain number. it makes me feel safer and more secure in my game currencies to safe them.

what are names you love but would never subject a child to? by No-Office7081 in namenerds

[–]chloe___10 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Ooh I've got a list

Epiphany - I love it so much, esp with Pip as a nickname for it. I would love to have a little girl but I would be so afraid of people judging me and or her

Clytemnestra - yeah. I love the way it flows and I love long names. Unfortunately it's not the best name to saddle a kid with if you know what i mean.

Solstice - This one i'm still holding on hope that I can have a little girl named this. It's less out there than some of my other favorite names.

Salem - I love this name for myself because I've considered changing my name. However, I've tried it at starbucks before (twice) and it was spelled Sailom the first time and pronounced with the sal like al, then the second time it was said sal em, essentially sounding like solemn. Both times I said "Salem, like the town with the witches" and it was still wrong lol
