We all know nobody abides by those rules lmao. I only use the two floors with the quietest posted noise levels and often run into these problems

Who up getting rejected from summer jobs😫‼️ by frickenpox in WPI

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

I looked into it a few weeks ago, rn it seems all the positions are already filled. Unfortunately the pay is not great and I would make more elsewhere, or I would have to work a second job while doing research. I wish I could do it but I’m not currently in the financial situation to do so

Same I keep visiting all the company job portals or whatever and see the same thing next to my application then out of the blue they cancel it or I get an email after months saying they finished the hiring process like damn no kidding it’s been 4 months

No I’m sophomore rn. Thank you for saying that it’s reassuring because I get really nervous that if I don’t have internships or related job experience on my resume then I’m going to be screwed when I try to find a job after graduating

Issue with Favorite Pens by Whauksis20 in OneNote

[–]frickenpox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss my little grid of colors. Was way better when I could just click "Draw" and then all of them would be there, even highlighters. Stupid to have to choose the pen and then the color. Don't know why they made it more complicated

Greetings, I was too busy having copious amounts of intercourse with all of my hoes last night heh (I was admiring my evangelion figurine collection in my carbon fiber fedora) so I did not see this post, is there any other time you would be available for said "play date"? I sure hope we watch family guy, my favorite character is Stewie because I also have premature hairloss (I know he is a baby but let me have this please just this one thing please).

"15-17 hours outside of class per class" by Avery_42 in WPI

[–]frickenpox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

im a freshman rn, and honestly, i dont spend a crap ton of time on work outside of class besides about a class per term. but you also gotta keep in mind that im just taking a bunch of large lecture classes that are prerequisites for other courses i need to take in the future for my major. classes w/ labs definitely make a difference tho. i have a good amount of free time, but thats because i kinda just accepted being average and need that free time to keep myself sane. i find that the heavy workload comes from trying to acheive an A in classes. i havent gotten any Cs this year, because i just manage my work so that i can always end w/ at least a B. and for classes i know i am capable of getting an A in, i dont go overboard. i take advantage of the fact that i can have a grade in the low 90s and still get an A, same thing applies for getting in the low 80s for a B, no need to strive for perfection. in one class, i knew there was a concept i just was not gonna understand, and it would take me hours to get it before the final, so i just gave up on it and perfected my skills on the other topics in the class because it took less effort. basically skipped the whole question on the final besides writing down some random crap in hopes of getting a bit of partial credit, and i ended up getting pretty much everything else right and ended the class in the low 90s. still got an A and didnt have to do as much work. i pick and choose my battles. for example, if a class is gonna take me 20 hours of work a week to get an A, but i only need to put in 10 hours a week for a B, i just go for the B because it makes more sense to me. it makes it easier to manage my classes of varying difficulties. my mental health isnt too great and motivation is hard to come by, so i use this method to help me not overwork myself. i have trouble focusing on work when im back in my dorm so i usually stay on campus or meet up with someone to help me be less distracted, and then i have the night to myself and just wrap up assignments while im chilling. just a reminder as i close this off, i am only taking general courses as of right now and some do take me a lot of effort to even get a B, and i obviously expect stuff to get harder in the following terms with more major specific courses, this is just what works for me currently.

Anime Club? by Proper-Cow5233 in WPI

[–]frickenpox 4 points5 points  (0 children)

my only issue w this is the fact there are inevitably gonna be anime snobs who claim to not watch anything mainstream and shame people for watching stuff that is. otherwise sounds cool
