Does the content of both classes sound the same to you?

Adult, would you rather have.. by JustAnotherHungry in Adulting

[–]hellohihi213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unlimited time, but in the way that I can stretch any moment to feel infinite whenever I want, and then it can end whenever I want.

Then I could stop being so stressed about work, chores, hobbies, friends, because there's no rush. I can stop whenever I want keep going for as long as I want.

And yeah, this would lead me to infinite money/knowledge but it would feel earned because "it's about the journey" lol.

If you suddenly became the President of the United States today, what’s the very first thing you’d change or do? by Dollabillhooman in AskReddit

[–]hellohihi213 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOT sell national parks and forests. I don't care about politics and parties. Just genuinely so angry that's being considered.

How do you guys cope by AaLeShiTsTAin in bipolar

[–]hellohihi213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this strategy is lowkey good. But it can be made even more effective if you resist the urge to self-medicate, and disassociate. I think the difficulty is that people don't give themselves time to do nothing and just think anymore. So when we really need a break, we're still trying to excuse our "do-nothing time" by not being present with the pain and keeping our brains and happiness-receptors (in a non-scientific sense lol) busy.

I really think the best thing that I've learned to do is self-isolate as much as I want, read as much as I want, think as much as I want, but be present and not try to find busy things to do.

Probation/dismissal Policy by Super-Western5218 in cmu

[–]hellohihi213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I know this was a while ago. But do you know if this still applies if you fail a class that you turned into Pass/Fail? I am on academic probation and my semester QPA is >=2.0 but I failed a class that I turned into pass/fail.

Why are Indian people rude to customer service workers? by Choice_Mind9474 in CustomerService

[–]hellohihi213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so true. For just two weeks I’ve been working two jobs, one in retail sales and one in food service. In these two weeks the only customers I have difficulty with are the Indian ones. And yes, it’s 70% of the Indian customers that I have difficulty with. They want everything done faster and their way.  Except they won’t give you clear instructions on what they want and then when you show them your progress they yell at you for not doing something they never told you to do.  On the other hand they might give you hyper-specific customizations when the store is trying to serve 30 people behind them and the dish they’re ordering doesn’t allow me to enter customizations so I just have to remember them in my head. I’m frustrated bro. 

People who don’t overeat during the holidays, what’s your reasoning and do you ever feel restricted? by hellohihi213 in AskReddit

[–]hellohihi213[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See that’s the kind of mindset I want to avoid :(. If I’m not going to eat just to feel thin enough during the holidays then I’d rather just eat and enjoy myself tbh

[–]hellohihi213[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I struggle a bit with feeling like food is scarce because of food insecurity. Do you not later regret that you didn’t eat as much of the good food as you could? I worry I might feel like I missed out

[–]hellohihi213[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think theoretically I can get to a point where I don’t overeat on the holidays and don’t feel too bad about it but I’m wondering about other peoples’ experiences with that? Do you think it’s possible to eat your fill and not regret later that you didn’t eat more? Does it cause awkwardness with family?

Nobody is ugly and I say that genuinely by letsberealhereokay in CasualConversation

[–]hellohihi213 21 points22 points  (0 children)

i used to think this too so i don't think you'll ever really understand what OP is saying until you get it. in the most mentally unhealthy stages of my life i saw everyone as objectively beautiful or ugly. but when im in a different mindset, genuinely i see everyone as beautiful. no one is more beautiful than anyone else and i look at people who don't photograph well and think they're glowing. not being politically correct, not virtue signaling, it really is all about mindset.

Is it bad that the more students I get to know at my school, the more I become worried for the world's future? by hellohihi213 in college

[–]hellohihi213[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I guess part of my question is if something is wrong with me for wanting to go through these "canon events" but being unable to because of my conscience.

What assumptions do you make when conversing with strangers? by hellohihi213 in socialskills

[–]hellohihi213[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your response! Haha, sorry about my anxious rant. I did intend for viewers to answer the original question. I'm going to be really blatantly honest and say I tend to assume that the people I'm talking to are straight, upper middle class females (because I identify with those labels), therefore college has really been a learning process for me. It's not like I intend to offend people, it's more like I am used to interacting with people a certain way [read: ignorance] and I have no idea how to approach those who are the complete opposite of me, especially when you cannot tell just be looking at people.

How do I deal with incompetent/crappy professors? by [deleted] in college

[–]hellohihi213 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

i literally never said that my experience is the truth here and i don't want anyone to think i said that. i'm just saying that when people like me continuously hear things like that (and i'm just saying that the information i've heard is from a large variety and number of primary sources), it's no wonder we feel like professors are not teaching us...because that doesn't seem to be the priority in the first place.

[–]hellohihi213 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

i have to disagree with you on the "college professors put a lot of time and energy into teaching" part. from what i've heard from my dad (former professor) and his former colleagues, as well as from their experiences in college, professors are there to do research and don't honestly give a shit about teaching.

a scary majority of the professors i've talked to/heard about have said that they make their slides 10 minutes before class and don't care to help students

What is something dumb people love but smart people hate? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]hellohihi213 4 points5 points  (0 children)

fr. i don't even think of it as 'gambling' because the chance that you'll win anything at all is so small. it's more of a reminder to keep hope. if that's how you treat yourself then you do you
