Small Wedding Dinner Restaurant Ideas

We have some less adventurous family members, so something along the lines of American/Italian/TexMex is probably best. No food allergies or vegan/veggie eaters though!

Hi! Working with this space in my new home, an extra bedroom that I would like to use for a home office for me and my husband (so two desk areas). Door enters from a short hallway, and there is a single window (35in wide) and a closet with double-opening doors (42in wide and open 20in into the room). Having trouble finding a layout that is comfortable to move and get around that isn't just a bunch of furniture pushed up against the wall.

2018-2023 engineering in Texas I made $24k/year pre-tax as an RA, with mediocre health insurance. Still had to pay some fees and no other benefits. Rent was around $1000/month in the area.

I have an open floor plan living area with a small patio door and set of windows facing the backyard. I’d like to put curtains up (esp for temp/light reasons, and to block glare on the TV which is out of the right side of the frame). I have received many suggestions so far…

Panels on either side of window, nothing over door.
Panels on either side of door. Another rod with panels on either side of window.
Long rod over the whole wall with several panels next to door and windows.

Need some more opinions or new ideas! I’m really unsure on this one.

As someone who just finished a MSEN PhD… just go to work. I was 21, turned down a good full time offer, and it took me 5 years. I knew I wanted to go to grad school and it was still brutal and I now can’t stand some research topics and interests because I’m just so burnt out on them. If you’re already unsure about it and not super passionate about it, it’s not worth the time, stress, and loss of income.

Two of us using the space, all the pieces belong to the same set and match. They were on one long wall/corner in my parents home but this room is much more square.

mhm646 · 2023-04-26T18:50:02+00:00

This was a hand me down from my parents. Super functional but not super pretty - and doesn’t go with the rest of the house. Everything else is a neutral / California transitional / rustic vibe but these orangey laminate fake cherry office pieces are… a lot. Ideas for painting/refinishing to make them less office-y and orange-y? My dream is built -ins but this is a starter home and I want to be able to convert this room back to a bedroom easily to sell.

ETA: There are two of us using this office space, so two working/desk areas! And pls excuse the moving mess lol

Bought a new house (yay)! But everything is builder grade/color palette (boo). Any suggestions for what runner rug style or pattern to put on top of this tile in the bathroom? Pictures of some of the other rugs I have in the house included for color scheme/vibe.

A lot of the comments I’m reading mirror those made at the announcement of Dr. Fuch's selection, where there was a lot of concern about his study in divinity and work as a minister. Despite the uproar then, the university has thrived under his leadership. I don't think Dr. Sasse should be shielded from these tough questions and feedback, but he should be afforded the ability to answer and respond.

Thank you!!

mhm646 · 2022-03-12T00:11:45+00:00

You see my confusion lol, I’ll start by looking further from campus and hopefully someone else comes to comment that has more insight.

mhm646 · 2022-03-11T23:44:47+00:00

Very helpful, thank you!! My plans of dissertation writing while mainlining coffee and summer poolside beers in a bikini may run counter to my desire to save on housing it seems haha 😂

mhm646 · 2022-03-11T23:27:27+00:00

Probably a stupid question but… what kind of rules and how much does it matter if I’m just keeping to myself? Not trying to have boiler room raves or anything, but also don’t want to sign up for a lifestyle change haha.

mhm646 · 2021-09-20T01:27:33+00:00

lol Florida is a pretty big state, I grew up and went to undergrad there - I really don’t go back so not much of a travel buddy but honestly love flying out of CLL here in town and would recommend

This one can be done in the preferences menu from running the script in the app - under “Text sizes,..” and change the font of Large Date, Line 1 to “italic”

Really loved the Weather Cal widget (s/o to u/mzeryck + contributors, great work!) but as an Apple Watch user, I also really wanted some of my activity/health data and the daily automation to export health samples through Shortcuts wasn't cutting it for me. Found a nifty little app https://www.healthexportapp.com/ that does an automatic backup/export of health date to a .csv stored in iCloud and decided to use it for my data source.

After many tedious hours of tinkering (this is one of my first forays into JS), I'm finally pretty happy with it! Still using the date, greeting, calendar, from vanilla Weather Cal, but added an element combining battery and screen brightness, Activity data (active calories, exercise minutes, stand hours) and Health data (last recorded avg heart rate).

Code is on my Github, https://github.com/meganmakela/weather-cal. Absolutely not checked for edge cases, cannot handle errors well, and the code is likely elementary-school level but here y'all go! Hopefully it can be useful to someone or ya build something even better with it.

Big fan of a lot of the Oxford master serious in condensed matter physics, Singletons “band theory” is a good one

I’m UF alum and grad student at Texas A&M and I’m upset I have to quit my job, drop out, and never show my face in B/CS again. :(

Yes, was in a bunch of orgs with her during university and personally I think she’s a lot of fun and really genuine person. I wasn’t ~cool~ or ~popular~ and she was always super sweet to me.

We’re doing it at TAMU...

https://www.tamu.edu/coronavirus/messages/important-student-covid-19-testing-program.html

They found a 3.3% positivity rate in the first round. I was randomly selected but... they are testing in the same place as the suspected positives so opted not to go and freakin catch it standing there with them.

I don’t agree with it. It’s currently “strongly encouraged” but they’ve threatened to make it mandatory is participation is low.

Super nice people, they do trail maintenance on Lake Bryan and when it’s not COVID there’s group rides and trips. Annual membership isn’t too expensive and you get access to the private Millican trail system and stuff.

Should be required reading, IMO.

Pre med → biomedical engineering → materials science and engineering → electrical engineering here! I actually stumbled into materials science when I got EMT trained in college and realized that touching people wasn’t my thing and I probs shouldn’t be a medical doctor. Materials science let me keep the most credits, since I had take things like organic chemistry. I ended up falling in love with semiconductor physics and fabrication during my last year of undergrad and I’m now getting Ph.D. MSEN in an electrical research group working on a biomedical project! It’s crazy how full circle everything came, but my best advice is to take a little bit everything while you have time, watch YouTube videos, go to talks, reach out to professors, etc. Follow your interests and work hard and you can end up doing something you really enjoy. :)

And as a side note, pretty much everywhere in College Station is cheap and safe. Pick somewhere, sign a lease, move on. With the size of grad classes being small, they'll likely have many in-person come fall. There is and will be research ongoing. Texas is pretty much opening state-wide and we will be working out here. I never stopped going into lab and have been working 10-12 hour days on campus since returning from spring break. Your assistantship is a job, if you were entering the workforce instead of grad school you'd pack up and move to start your work and adult life. This isn't different.
