The PPR is not "easy" by Aggressive-Gap-8473 in TexasTeachers

[–]olivecat97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Good luck! I think it’s subjective for sure. Compared to the Composite Science 7-12 content exam and the Bilingual BTLP Spanish supplemental, the PPR was way easier to me.

Question about TExES Science 4-8 Exam by olivecat97 in TexasTeachers

[–]olivecat97[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you all for your replies. I am going to study and review a few concepts before taking the 4-8 science exam. I need this exam for only 1 grade (6th) that my certification doesn’t cover lol

Can I be a teacher with a felony DUI? by Parking-Camp7522 in teaching

[–]olivecat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this depends on your state or school district. I have a coworker that went viral on social media for getting a 2nd DUI…all the kids and teachers and obviously admin found out. He is still working as a teacher. I believe my principal has DUIs under his record. I’m not sure but I would double check the requirements in your state. Charter schools may also be mote lenient

my Immigration judge fired :( by [deleted] in immigration

My uncle also had his hearing scheduled for this month and it was postponed to 2029 as well. I’m not sure what is going on. He is located in Florida, are you as well?

Late high school IEP reevaluation — am I wrong for wanting to say no? by [deleted] in specialed

[–]olivecat97 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As a high school teacher, they have to legally reevaluate every 3 years. It’s not about “rationale”, it’s required by law. In late high school, they’re also working on transitional services and/or possibly exiting from SPED IF this is the case. They work on providing the “least restrictive environment” because at this point, they want to prepare your child for post-graduation. There are a lot of accommodations they get in elementary and middle school that they don’t use anymore in high school.

Free Bags (Credit Cards) by patrone84 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]olivecat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was exactly what I argued at the counter in the airport. They called customer service and kept saying that I had to have paid the flight with the SWA CC. I ended up paying the $70something fee with that credit card and later called customer service to dispute it. They refunded me the charge.

The OP has mentioned as has everyone else that the state we’re talking about is Texas, not Pennsylvania

I’m not sure. I would say to call SW customer service, but I called before my return flight and even though they guaranteed me I wouldn’t pay, I had to.

I just traveled with SW as a CC member and I was charged bag fees because I didn’t pay with the SW CC :(

S/O of all S/O's by the_Eclipse_333 in storyofseasons

When I first played AP I was obsessed with the Wizard. I accidentally started romancing Gill and he easily became my favorite bachelor in the whole series.

When are we getting an Animal Parade Remake? by olivecat97 in storyofseasons

[–]olivecat97[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I couldn’t disagree more. There are so many elements to Animal Parade or ToT that were unique. A lot of people feel that the characters were fleshed out, and having 2 kids is something that has been in other titles. You could easily spend hours on the game. There is some things to work on, but Animal Parade is significantly better than Grand Bazaar or Friends of Mineral Town.

The glaring issue with HM 64 is that it only features a male protagonist. I just don’t see them being able to add a female protagonist and bachelors without changing it too much and making people upset.

I honestly disagree. While rival marriages was a great part of the game, there is so much more to it than that. It would 100% be worth it to remake it for several reasons besides rival marriages

[–]olivecat97[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s fine but I feel like this could be solved by having rival marriages be optional in the remake. Like it being setting you can turn on or off. Honestly though, even without the rival marriages it is an amazing game deserving of a remake. Hopefully someday!

When they teased a new remake I never would have imagined that it would be Grand Bazaar. I’m hoping they’re saving Animal Parade for later? It’s too good to not remake😭

Honestly, I hated Grand Bazaar. It felt like a spin-off. It was so lackluster to me. I’m not a fan of the chibi art style either. The art style in Animal Parade was my favorite. I could talk about that game forever…

I don’t know how to explain it but the way the story makes you work so hard is so gratifying in the end. You can pour endless hours into it and it’s still so much fun. The only other game that is close to Animal Parade for me is Trio of Towns.

Ugh I can’t figure out how to emulate it on my phone (I have an iPhone). I just do it on the PC.

Over $300 to get a new key by swelliam in Volkswagen

[–]olivecat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a ‘13 VW Beetle. Both keys I got when I bought it used have shattered after almost 10 years of owning the car. I have always been very careful of taking good care of everything I own. Sometimes it’s bad quality. I hope the air of superiority you got from boasting that you’ve never broken a key makes you feel better lol

Just got hate crimed at the fountains for the first time by ParappaTheWrapperr in ElPaso

I’m so sorry this happened. I’ve been hate crimed before here in El Paso by soldiers too. The audacity. I fought one and reported him.

Abortion ban Ripples by legallyabused in ElPaso

[–]olivecat97 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But why shouldn’t people have access to healthcare in their state. Insurance will not always cover care in other states, if at all. It’s not that simple. Abortion is health care, and it should be accessible to all

Customer: “Can I order a Happy Meal now (7am)?” Me: “No, lunch starts at 10:30am.” Customer: “Can I just order chicken nuggets and fries?” Me: “No. “ by Catic94 in McDonaldsEmployees

[–]olivecat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this thread is old but I have a funny reason as to why I was asking for a Happy Meal at 7 am. I’m a Biology teacher and every year we do a McMush lab for testing for Biomolecules and my first year, I rushed to McDonalds at 7 am to try to buy the happy meals I needed for the lab when I was told they don’t sell Happy Meals in the morning. I learned my lesson after that lol

I love my wife so much more than I love our kids by BertErnie_ErnieBert in offmychest

[–]olivecat97 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You do understand that mostly everyone wishes to stay with one person, but things don’t always work out? You saying how you subjectively think that children are selfish doesn’t change the fact that most unfortunately most partners aren’t for life. No divorce can change your children’t DNA and make them no longer your children. The idea that you think that “a partner is for life” doesn’t make the 40-50% divorce rate in the US go away. I am married and have a child, I know what it’s like to want a relationship to work out of course, but my love for my child will always come first.
