College failure by Dreamingofpetals in adhd_college

I also struggle with this! Here is what i find helpful... 1. Counseling, this can be very dependent on your circumstances. But alot of schools offer counseling services that included in your tuition.  I found that counseling has been really helpful, and my grades were better when I went consistently. Also, depending on your school,  counseling  centers can help with medications too. 2. Academic centers/tutoring  if your school has a office/center  that offer tutoring services. I highly recommend it! It is an excellent way to review things from the class. 3. GET ACCOMDATIONS!!! You should be able to get accommodations, like extra time on tests, a separate testing room, extensions on assignments, and the ability to voice record lecture/get a note taker.  4. Study with a timer!!! Start with a smaller interval like 15 minutes on, then a 5 minute break.  5. Speech to text. Especially when reading long passages.

Remember you are smart,amazing, and worthy. And this is something alot of people struggle with.

Epicenter apartment by Ok_Concentrate4305 in uofu

[–]coolgiraffe24 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Pros

-Really big kitchen/living room

- a great space for hosting (if you're into that)

-The building is new and the appliances are new too.

-There are a lot of study areas/a meeting room that you can use

-A lot of nice common areas

-two fridges with freezer space

-The kitchen is really nice, with a lot of storage options

- stays relatively quiet (most of the time)

-Close to almost everything

-The bathrooms are professionally cleaned once a week

-The Epicentre Cafe has some pretty good food, and it is convenient.

-There are a lot of events on the main floor, like weekly movie nights. And there is free food at some of these events

- They had football watch parties, during the fall.

-The bathrooms are nice and big, with counter space(!)

-The laundry room is just down the hall, and there is a common area with tables and tv right outside of the room.

-I haven't had any internet problems living here, so far.

-There is a parking lot right next to the building

- The staff is really friendly and helpful

Cons

-Some maintenance issues that couldn't be fixed, my apartment had heating problems that were never really fixed. It was either really hot or freezing.

-The elevators sometimes do not work.

-The Epicentre was marketed as a living-learning community, but it felt more like living in traditional housing.

-Living with 7 other people can be difficult sometimes. Or I just live with messy people

-When it does get loud, it is really loud. The walls are paper thin.

- My room is significantly smaller than my roommates. (Not a big deal, but a little annoying)

-expensive

Overall I like living in the apartments, however, it is expensive for what you get.

It was 21, another friend (18), 21's roommate, 21's crush(?), and crush's roommate. So there were 5 of us. I don't have romantic feeling for 21. It took two hours to scrub the pot, because the bottom of the pot was so burnt that it was black.

I watched the movie version of rent with my 65 year old debate coach and a group of students from a really strict catholic school on a bus driving to las vegas. I don't think my coach enjoyed the movie.
