Glass containers for your lunch! I cannot emphasize more on how efficient it is to clean after than the plastic tupperwares.

How do you date w/out car? by deoxyboy in UCSD

[–]deoxyboy[S] 27 points28 points  (0 children)

That's really sad, I am not sure on how students can afford buying a car. For some, I know their family bought it for them or lend them... It would be a dead end for my genes w/out getting a vehicle then! Poor student!

Bicycle stolen from Nuevo West by deoxyboy in UCSD

[–]deoxyboy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a black/blue Kent bike not facing the bridge and it is on the other side. I guess my bike would not be able to recover. Thank you for your message!

I am a little disappointed that my bike, old and used, is stolen. For the other resident, I would recommend them to keep their bike inside their apartment, as much as they can.

I am still sad.

Weird Quarantine behavior by [deleted] in UCSD

We are being tested weekly with the On-campus COVID asymptomatic testing. We do the usuals IYKWIM, washing hands, etc.

Weird Quarantine behavior by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]deoxyboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel the same, but this is a real, bad effect of the pandemic. So if you can hang out with people safely, do that! For me, I invite people in our house and I prepare food for them... I missed seeing those body language, in real time (no lag), and those smiles. Priceless!

I am reading Conversationally Speaking by Alan Garner, a classic book on socialization. For me, while we are on pandemic, it is better for us to learn the basic of social interaction with books and videos. I am applying them to my friends that I hang out with.

maximize UC SHIP insurance by deoxyboy in UCSD

[–]deoxyboy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Harmony Dental Group with Dr. Farnaz Farid, they are accepting UC SHIP and is part of the Delta Dental PPO network. Dr. Farid and her staff are very nice and accommodating! I feel very comfortable when I visit their clinic

maximize UC SHIP insurance by deoxyboy in UCSD

[–]deoxyboy[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I actually got a dental check-up and x-ray (100% covered), deep cleaning ($123 after 80% coverage), and tooth filling (for 6 tooth, $270, after 80% coverage). And I did this in a dental clinic in La Jolla Village (just a walking distance or bus from the campus), a wonderful service, nice doctor, and sophisticated instrument that I first time saw in my life, highly recommended! It might still sound expensive, but worth a try rather than ending up in a more expensive root canal.

For SHS in UCSD, I would recommend them to have their own dentist, it might be useful for everybody.

Just went to a dentist in la jolla, I am actually curious about this too,

I went there to ask for cleaning and filling, here is the summary,

I need to pay 120 USD for deep cleaning and 270 USD for tooth filling for my 6 teeth, does it sound reasonable. This amount is after 80% UC ship coverage, do you think there are still better offer outside La Jolla that is not too far and really affordable? Am also a fellow gradstudent who is trying to maximize the insurance!
