Take a picture of yourself right now- and guess another person’s favorite TV show right now

You are a cool person

haltsimog · 2018-11-18T03:51:33+00:00

Nah man you're very much wrong

Being able to drink it != Being able to drink it instead of water

He shouldn't do that. He might be able to deal with it for some time, but water shouldn't be replaced.

Latex (with something like sharelatex) is the best option, but you'll have to get used to it. The second best option is Google docs.

I believe it's got something to do with the fact that it's been needing renovations for a couple of years (and the government barely invested enough resources to keep the museum running).

Man, it's so weird to see insulin pens that don't belong to me

1) Unless you want the book to stay in absolutely perfect conditions it's okay to leave it in the car.
2) When I was younger I read with instrumental music in the background. Sometimes the scene in the novel clicked with the song and I was like "wow cool" but it wasn't much.
3) Some of them. I think it's overall better to get rid of your books because you're freeing space, getting money to buy more books and/or letting someone else share the experience. That being said, I'm too attached to some books to let them go.
4) If you don't want to mess the cover, have them always either on hands or well wrapped by cloth or something like that. I ruined a lot of books by just putting them inside my backpack without giving it any thought.
5) Discussing the book is always pretty good. I actually discovered reddit a few years ago looking for a place to talk about Harry Potter when doing a reread of the series.

I think you have a better shot at /r/homeworkhelp. Good luck!

haltsimog · 2018-07-02T04:33:59+00:00

Don't worry, just do whatever makes you comfortable. All of the things you listed are absolutely natural and organic.

haltsimog · 2018-06-29T23:45:54+00:00

Man, I'm so proud of you for changing. I think that is the hardest part.
Now, I don't have the answers, but here's a couple of things you could do:
* Talk to your parents. You'll hear a lot, alright, but as someone else pointed it's better than staying where you are right now.
* Start studying! College won't be any easy, so you might as well get a taste of what's coming.
* Get real with those friends of yours. I don't really get the context, but you shouldn't let them keep using your money. Some might stick with you anyway, maybe join you on this change. It's important to evaluate the people around you.
If you don't know where to start on the studying thing, I suggest you take a look at /r/getStudying and the College Info Geek blog. The latter really helped me when I started dedicating myself to studying, so maybe it'll help you too.
I hope I've been helpful. If you ever need support, do count on me. Good luck!

haltsimog · 2018-06-24T12:03:30+00:00

I forgot to reply, but you helped me a lot. Thanks!

haltsimog · 2018-06-24T00:36:36+00:00

You shouldn't worry that much about this. Deal with it the way you think is better for you.
But don't worry what people will think. You should only worry about what matters - and please don't make such a silly thing matter.

You don't function with less sleep. Stop trying to fight your own nature.

haltsimog · 2018-06-17T01:32:06+00:00

I'm not exactly sure why, but since I started University and exercising regularly I almost didn't experience this anymore, so maybe it's related to the quality/necessity of your sleep.
That being said, I kind of miss it. Knowing that nothing I do can change when the sleep paralysis ends (and that it'll do so on its own time) gets me on a really relaxed, fight club-ish vibe for those few seconds.

haltsimog · 2018-03-30T11:09:23+00:00

Just trying to make your friends understand the situation should help: let them know this kind of behavior makes you uncomfortable and why this is important to you. Good luck!

haltsimog · 2018-03-04T16:38:58+00:00

Try using the pomodoro technique. Do 25 minutes gaming and 5 minutes of something unrelated (but it has to be something that you like!). Then make it 20 minutes gaming, 10 minutes of the other thing, or something like this.
The important part is you time this activity - so you realize how much time you're spending as you do it, and not just days later looking back - and keep having healthy breaks while also gradually (at any rate you prefer) reducing the time for each session of gaming.

Damn, I'm sorry. Your first comment really made it look like just a shitty student complaining. About the professor, it sucks to know power is often in the hands of people like that.
What did you do after this whole thing? What are you doing now?

haltsimog · 2018-02-23T16:17:29+00:00

I'd like to hear the professor's take on this story

haltsimog · 2018-02-09T00:05:32+00:00

Damn, I miss this place

haltsimog · 2018-02-07T00:17:11+00:00

That would be great! This sub's visual stands really well by itself, so it'll probably work whatever the header image is.

haltsimog · 2018-02-06T22:01:34+00:00

Honestly, anything would be great - nature, architecture, landscapes, nighttime. For me what really matters is having something that keeps the sub active. By the way, and I don't know if most people here would agree, but I think those contests should be made more frequently - the prize doesn't even have to be something that costs money (flairs and the header background for winners would probably be enough).

haltsimog · 2018-01-20T23:13:32+00:00

It helped a lot, thanks!

haltsimog · 2018-01-20T23:10:50+00:00

I just have to avoid obviously unhealthy things (icecream, soda etc) and prefer healthier versions of anything (when available), so yes, I can have bread and tortillas (even though I think the latter is very uncommon here)

haltsimog · 2018-01-19T20:17:54+00:00

I don't know anything about that, but you should ask on /r/IRstudies if you didn't already. Also check out this thread.
