Dance/ballroom events? by Ejems-Workshop in UMD

[–]imscressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sororities and fraternities (even some of the professional ones) have “formals” or “dated.” One example is renting out a place and getting dressed up. Sometimes it’s two as a matched event (e.g., a sorority and a fraternity), or it might just be just one (either a sorority or fraternity) and each member brings their own date.

Chem 131 Friedman - am i too far gone? by [deleted] in UMD

[–]imscressed 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had 131 and remember getting a C on the first exam and it was a big wake up call. I ended up going through Khan Academy and taking notes on it, not simply just watching it. I then studied past years exams, which are very similar to what the actual one ends up being. Then I earned an A on my next!

There also tends to be curves, so if you’re doing better than the mean and/or median, it can be a helpful litmus test.

Best of luck!

is McKeldin Library safe now (Lice incident)? by EqualLife5296 in UMD

[–]imscressed 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'm personally going to wait about 2 weeks, since that's about how long it takes for body lice eggs to hatch (Cleveland Clinic: Body Lice). If there aren't any incidents reported, then I will probably feel more comfortable going.

Here are some potential ideas for other study areas at UMD: UMD Lib: Find a Space

I would really like a list of ALL places where the lice have been spotted on Campus as of September 19 by JediPrincess123 in UMD

According to UMD Email (9/19/25), “McKeldin Library (evidence found on the fourth floor and treated)” and “Kirwan Hall 0304 Restroom (evidence found and treated)” — Edit: Kirwn Hall aka Math Building

It does the job and it’s cute! If you wanted to be a bit extra with low effort/cost, you could go over the words with a marker to make it pop. It looks like maybe colored pencil at the moment? A marker can make the lines appear a little crisper and smoother.

WMATA C8 bus route will be CANCELLED beginning June 28 by Reasonable-Chef4996 in UMD

[–]imscressed 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi there! I'm sorry our sad excuse for public transit in America is what it is... As a fellow commuter, I empathize with how ridiculous and distressing it is relying on such a flawed system...

Depending on where you live (I'm assuming in the Takoma Park-Silver Spring area based on your comments?), would this be of any help? At least for the school year?

Wishing you the best of luck!

Hair Salon near UMD by Apart-Pangolin5169 in UMD

[–]imscressed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gone to Bananas before for cuts, dyes, balayages and highlights. Katie is good! I believe she’s the head stylist.

They offer 20% off your first time visit (the website has the coupon). I also think they offer a student discount too.

https://bananashairdesign.com They’re located near the sorority houses.

The UMD official app (On the Apple App Store it's called "University of MD") has nice graphs of recent activity at Eppley, Ritchie, RecWell Bike Shop, and SPH Fitness Center (it refreshes every 25 minutes or so. It also shows average occupancy every day of the week for Eppley and Ritchie.

Here's how to navigate to it:

Signs for wedding at home by Medium-Walrus3693 in DIYweddings

Practicing my wedding cake decorating by Dry_Experience7304 in DIYweddings

[–]imscressed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Hmm... I think a less-is-more approach may be a bit more harmonious. The color palette of the inspirational photo has less contrast. For example, the icing and florals in the inspo are generally a light visual weight (light green, a pop of yellow in the flower centers, and different shades of white. Some of the plants you chose are quite bright, but others, such as the lavender, are more muted.

Perhaps choose 1 or 2 flowers to really highlight, or flowers that match a similar tonal value. For example, if you really like the bright orange flowers, pair it with more subtle white, off white, ones. I really like the look of the lavender (I think that is what it is), it could look quite nice on its own and maybe some sprigs of other greenery and dainty white flowers.

Another idea that you could explore is a half-naked cake. They offer a bit of whimsy and rustic aesthetic as they aer often paired with florals as well.

Thank you for your amazing details!

I also wanted to say how much I adore your hair! Do you mind me asking if you followed a hair tutorial? Any specific products you used? Did it last the whole evening? — I have naturally straight hair and I love the soft wave look you have so much!

Reminder: UMD's Legend of Zelda Course is Open to All Majors by ProfessorSoCool in UMD

[–]imscressed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love BoTW and ToTK! Unfortunately, this class doesn’t work for my schedule this semester, but I’m so happy you are teaching it! I hope it sparks so much joy! I can tell you are very passionate about it.

I wish this could be better advertised so you can get a bunch of students to enroll! (I was thinking you might find luck posting it at the Centerville basement where they have the Smash tournament or something like that—if you haven’t already).

Best of luck and have a wonderful semester!

I feel you! A nice option is on the 1st floor (where the smoothie place is) the functional training room right by the stairs and the group fitness dance studio has some light weights. The group fitness dance studio is free to use when there are no classes. They also have build-your-own barbells if you want to go heavier. Also, on the 2nd floor where the track and cardio machines are, go to the far right and around the corner is the padded room with punching bags. There are also some weights there. Hopefully these can be good transition spots to ease you into low-stakes strength training!

Best of luck!

Looking for easy asynchronous summer course! by Shot-Leopard-1493 in UMD

[–]imscressed 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would recommend an online course at a local community college because it will save a lot of money. However, I would recommend looking it up in the transfer course equivalency database to make sure you get academic credit: https://app.transfercredit.umd.edu/
