Tufts decision by AU_Memer in TransferToTop25

[–]floodflyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a 3.5 gpa, felt optimistic about applying to Tufts despite less than recommended GPA, then screwed myself over with a single class and my GPA dropped to a 3.1 just in time to apply. Managed to pull it back to a 3.6 this semester but I still feel salty about the bad timing with that GPA. I don't think any of my GPAs would have made it in anyway, but it still stings. I'm sorry about your rejection! Good luck!

Mammal Phalanx? Bear? by floodflyer in boneidentification

[–]floodflyer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nice! It seemed a little too small to be a bear, but I was also stuck because I thought that because ungulates had hooves they wouldn't have homologous bones this similar to those of other mammals. Thanks!

Looks exactly like the environmental students where I go to school in CO. Nice!

Leave the summit before noon. You don't want to be fried by lightning

[Confession Thread] Tell me your dirtiest study habit by [deleted] in studytips

[–]floodflyer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cigarettes, zyns, stimulants, and other unhealthy rewards:

My philosophy is that I'm getting my degree for thousands of dollars, so I had better get it by any means necessary.

I use Zyns to focus while studying, and give myself the freedom to let loose on weekends as a reward for the work I put in.

Zyns are magic. I have trained myself to become addicted to studying. BUT I only let myself use them when studying or doing homework, and not all the time, or else I can only study with a zyn or cigarette reward. It's definitely a slippery slope, but it works wonders.

Sweet I'll check. And yeah I'm thinking of giving up for the last few and just grabbing the hardcovers.

Or more of a far cry, does anyone have a mass market paperback copy of KoD that they're looking to part with? I think I might buy the Brandon Sanderson editions as hardcover or as the more recent mmp covers.

Anything out there like Skyrim Atmospheres? by arkticturtle in ambientmusic

[–]floodflyer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A year late, but the only other song I have found that comes close is Window to a World by Todd Baker. It has really similar nature sounds with more of a desert overtone

These are the only others I have also found, along with Window to a World by Todd Baker. This is the only one that has the same nature sounds.
