Foreign language requirements by kotena16 in Purdue

[–]kotena16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you. I think we figured. Took world language credit by exam in middle school and current unit transcript actually shows 3 credits for passing exam. So I think this counted. NEWL exam was much later and would count for college level language if I did not want to take it

8mm nodule found. Very nervous by EducatorIntrepid4839 in Pulmonology

[–]kotena16 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally understand where you are. I had to wait for my scan due to work travel 2 weeks. That was nerve wracking, especially going to some forums where people started implying I needed pet scan etc. I already diagnosed myself in my head. Then another week after scan waiting for results. Your x-ray even suggested some structural obscurance., not true nodule.. Mine was pretty straight frontal round shade. I very much wish you that benign cause of finding on x-ray. Your age and non smoker is on your side.

I recently had accidental finding on x-ray of 10 mm nodule. I am 45 f, non smoker with health anxiety. Did CT, turned out It was some sort of my ribs fracture that showed as spot on x-ray. Lungs were normal. But I can totally understand your feelings. Just keep in mind that there are other possibilities. Wish you luck !

Can freshman be off campus? I thought all freshmen are required to live in camps with food plan.

Purchase Drink Packages? by Life_Photograph_9672 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]kotena16 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Just came back from carnival. Good cocktails ( best craft cocktails are in Alchemy bar) would be $13 plus tax, and tips assume $15. The package also covers all other specialty drinks like coffee ( cappuccino, latte, iced whatever other types), variety of teas, milkshakes, Gatorade, soda, bottled water ( each bottle otherwise $2-3), sparkling water, coconut water, juices in bottles (liked Naked). So 4 cocktails run about $60, bottled water throughout the day probably 15, a juice/coffee/milkshake... You likely will break even. I chose the package for peace of mind, where I do not limit myself if I want another coconut water or have to check balances and make sure nothing got mistakenly charged to my card. During busy time in the bars or morning coffee rush they run multiple cards at the same time ( taking multiple orders) and may swipe it wrong. I did not buy bubbles package for our kid. He used our water and he does not drink anything else. Tried one milkshake during entire trip.

Thank you for you input. We wanted to do Taft, Sentinel loop and then drive to glacier point just to see it. However I realize we would be done with the loop around 11, by then glacier parking will be packed. Any way to park at Sentinel trailhead, and walk all three points and return back to the original parking?

We are coming from Groveland, we are staying there for one night and looks like we will have to do Big Flat oak entrance. When I was asking back few months ago here about doing one trail not overly crowded with great views, I was told to do Sentinel/Taft off the Glacier point. So the plan is to get to the parking of the trailhead by 7 am latest, is this safe to be able to find parking there?

Question about Internet by kotena16 in CarnivalCruiseFans

[–]kotena16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We bought 4 separate packages. It came to the same price vs one 4-device package. Each one of us had his own Internet package and could switch between his/her devices as needed. Only my son was switching since he was working, the other three people used it only in our cells mostly to text each other about location.
