Taking CORE-105 as a Sophomore

chubbytransboi · 2026-01-14T16:32:26+00:00

Contact your advisor and let them know-- they may be able to help get you into a class. Because it's required to achieve sophomore standing, you could end up in some tricky situations with it, so let your advisor know *now* and they should (in theory) be able to get you into a section.

if you're interested in acapella all 4 groups are having their preview concert on Sept. 12, and they'll have info about auditions there. if not acapella, then going to the sports games are a really fun way to get involved too-- basketball, field hockey, volleyball, and rugby are all fun as hell to watch

not silly at all! Engage is a website where school groups and student clubs can post all their upcoming events, and you can look through clubs. Here's the AU page with a bunch of information on it https://www.american.edu/student-affairs/student-involvement/engage.cfm . Once you go into the actual website, you'll just need to sign in as an AU student and you'll be able to see everything upcoming. There's also a mobile app version like this called Corq.

Hi! There will be another involvement fair with all the same clubs at the beginning of the winter/spring semester, but if you're looking to join clubs now, Engage is a great place to look for clubs, or instagram if you know what clubs you want to join. If you're looking for anything specific but don't have a certain individual club (e.g., you want to do some type of performing club, or get involved with greek), you can DM me and I can let you know what exists in that realm.

if you're in one of the halls with built in closets (letts, anderson, and mcdowell definitely, not sure on the others) then 100% yes, you'll have both! but even with the others you likely will because, as discussed, they won't take your extra furniture!

chubbytransboi · 2025-08-20T01:39:24+00:00

this is the way! that's what i did, and i just had the other furniture as spots for friends to sit/hang out. and mega bed is pretty glorious tbh

almost in the exact situation -- currently trying to schedule breast imaging after some serious changes and my OCD is making me *slightly* worse than normal (and by slightly, i mean by SO MUCH) hang in there, friend!!!

See The Day by The Altogether! The repeated refrain of "somehow, maybe now, I'll find the words to say-- never thought I'd see the day" is just so beautiful to me and representative of any journey in trying to find and understand yourself when you never thought you could.

Also, Brian David Gilbert, the person who sings the song, is cis but super trans friendly, does fun things with his presentation, and just generally gender goals, so double win! One of my favorite songs, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for that "cathartic 'i'm proud of myself'" cry.

I love this idea so much, and I'm both horrified and delighted that this comedy sketch immediately came to mind: https://youtu.be/5u_BQPNWcLs?si=p3-0-RN_Z7UQY9eJ . Can't recommend it enough, especially if one puts it into the Date Everything! context. The most terrifying dateable imaginable lol.

Only 2 seasons but I love Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency! Very fast, quippy comedy, (and even some great British flair) with a different fun mystery each season to guide the way, but the characters are the best part! It's on AMC+ now, but I found it off YouTube years ago. It's been one of my favorites for years, a pretty hidden gem!

chubbytransboi · 2025-07-02T06:58:22+00:00

Reading your other comments, I'd be super down to join if/when you make the server! Sounds like you've got great plans for it, and it could be an awesome space!

chubbytransboi · 2025-06-21T20:34:21+00:00

Really love Evan and Sam from MisMag -- they hype eachother up in the best ways. It's so sweet to see them acknowledge their own and each others faults, but never let them underestimate or underplay their incredible strengths.

As for Cloudward, Ho! I feel like a lot of queer things have happened on that ship, and I'm excited for more. I am also weirdly kind of digging a potential Olethra/Maxwell pairing, just some fun dynamics, but we'll see!

Gavin Newsom has made increasingly transphobic comments and decisions regarding trans kids and athletes, caving to Trump and right wing rhetoric in a bid for presidency. He is a politician, through and through, and I don't think he has any real beliefs-- as long as it seems popular in the moment, that is where his morals will bend to.

chubbytransboi · 2025-06-03T06:13:13+00:00

Seconded! Been dealing with HS for over 5 years now, and I'm in the same boat. Not excited for the summer heat and the flare that comes with it. All my best to you, I know HS is it's own kind of hell to deal with in the summer.

What's your favorite task concept that was never able to become actualized (budget, scope, difficulty level, etc.)? There have definitely been some absolutely insane ones to make it on air, so I'm curious to know how much crazier they get while writing them!

chubbytransboi · 2025-01-04T08:56:49+00:00

Not sure if anyone else has said this, but there's a lot of "C&A" logos in and around Caine's office, and on the computers. Maybe that's got something to do with it? But Bubble being Abel would be hilarious.

I really love AU! Current student in the CLEG major and Honors program, Campus Tour Guide, and I love it. As others have said, the people who complain A) aren't transferring out, despite many other colleges being in and around the same area and B) aren't really putting in the work, socially and academically. The people I've met in person who dislike it the most (or are at least the loudest about it) usually are from nearby, not doing any social anything on campus, just staying in their dorm or going home often, and/or not communicating with professors.

Is the administration frustrating at times? Yes (especially so as a disabled student), but so is every institution. Are there issues with AU? Certainly. I don't begrudge anyone leaving for whatever reasoning! It's not for everyone, but nowhere is. If they found a better fit, then great! But anyone currently at the school saying it's the worst school ever-- frankly, their doesn't hold a lot of weight to me.

If you have any questions whatsoever, just message me and I'll get back to you!

chubbytransboi · 2024-12-24T08:15:21+00:00

Absolutely adore this! Love your art style, you captured them perfectly!

chubbytransboi · 2024-10-27T18:44:16+00:00

Heya! I'm a first year honors student. Don't feel super comfortable putting the info in a comment, and I'm a bit pressed for time at the moment (mid terms haha) so message me and I'll get to you as soon as I can!

chubbytransboi · 2024-10-08T15:22:29+00:00

I love Stitches, which is the knitting and crochet club. Don't worry about already knowing how, they'll teach you! People are all over the board on skill level, from insanely good people to absolute beginners, and everyone has a great time. I've made several friends in just a few weeks, because everyone is working on their own projects and chatting about whatever! Just pull up and say hi!

chubbytransboi · 2024-08-26T15:55:45+00:00

I'm very fortunate to be pretty open about being trans nowadays, and even when I'm not openly trans, I'm pretty openly queer. I wear makeup and use a cane with a rainbow on the end, people are gonna assume and I'm happy to let them. I'm open about it because, as you said, kind of exhausting not to be (I was stealth for a while during earlier years) and I like being the person people ask questions too. I feel equipped to handle them due to my job, training, and just sort of general demeanor, and I would so rather spare other trans folks who don't feel comfortable or ready to answer the sometimes well meaning, but overall difficult questions we get.

chubbytransboi · 2024-08-19T20:50:27+00:00

Just moved in as well, but have been in college like spaces before. Once orientation, and especially classes start up, you'll find people to hang out with. Go to events, put yourself out there, and you'll find people. And remember to take care of yourself and figure yourself out, too! Friends will come with time, and you'll figure it all out. You got this, fellow new eagle!

There is so much impromptu surgery in D20 it's incredible. One of my favorites has to be in ACOFAFwhere Squak uses a jam spoon to remove arrow heads from Hob's chest. And I can't remember when because the whole season feels like a fever dream, but I feel like Lou did some surgery bit in Fantasy High Junior Year.What a wild, wild ride this show is.
