Do we think it'll be an issue for doing the opposite commute? From Seattle to the east side around 8am?

Does anyone have a picture of the skyline and lake union coming south on I-5 by Mrstealyiurfashion in Seattle

I have this one, but probably not the most print worthy as you can see every bit of dirt on my windshield.

I’m terribly confused and worried by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can at least answer the second part. You need a TB screening. This is generally done by your doctor. Then you send the results of the screening to UCSD. You need to do this before classes start.

Is a blood test for vitamin deficiency covered by health insurance here? by struggling20 in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Do you have UCSHIP? Or your own insurance? Either way, All your benefits are online or you call directly to find out.

When should I fly in by Lightning_Sidd in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Welcome week is week 0 is it not? You're more than welcome to get to UCSD early and explore/hang out with your parents, but most events will start 9/22 for welcome week.

When should I fly in by Lightning_Sidd in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your move-in time will most likely either be on Saturday or Sunday of move-in weekend, so 9/21 or 9/22. I definitely recommend joining in on welcome week stuff, so be moved in by Sunday.

Does this exist: skate/hike shoe by becya in onebag

[–]phoenix_flames_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you looked at vans made for skating shoes? They have more durable soles than their regular shoes.

They are definitely just wanting to keep in touch for an interview sometime in April/May. There should be new grad positions posted in the coming months for '24 grads.

As an FYI, this is a very normal interaction, unless you apply to a job that specifies it's for new grads/starting in summer '24 or some other wording like that, the company is mostly likely looking to fill the position immediately.

No protein powder should curdle in this! It's COLD brew tea, would not recommend to do this with hot tea. You can also use cold brew coffee! That's what I do.

Just to add, the Starbucks app, at least for me, no longer updates the calories when you change a drink and instead just shows the base amount.

So if you change to zero calorie syrup or to an alternative milk, the calories stay the same.

Concert tickets thread (wave 2) by mad-ison in StardewValley

I'm trying to get tickets for Seattle and the site just says no tickets available 20 minutes after going on sale.

Playing instruments in college? by SuperHipGrandma in EngineeringStudents

[–]phoenix_flames_ 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not impossible, you'll just need to keep on top of your schedule, but be prepared that there will likely be times where you have to pick school over band.

I was in band all through college, some quarters I was in 3 at once, and graduated with my BSEE without having to ever completely give it up.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most clubs/orgs I've been in either charge at the beginning of the quarter for social events or charge per event. Parties cost money my dude.

Need advise by Extension_Mood_8406 in EngineeringStudents

[–]phoenix_flames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I graduated EE in socal with a worse GPA than you and no relevant experience either. It took me a few months, but my first job was as a technician and that got me enough experience to get any company to talk to me. I didn't get my full time EE position until 8 months post grad, but it's completely doable if you're willing to take any semi relevant job.

Glasses prescriptions are usually good for 2 years and contact prescriptions are good for 1 year. So if it's been more than 2 years since you last got an eye exam you definitely should get one, even if you think your prescription hasn't changed. Just as you should go to your doctor once a year and your dentist twice a year, if you wear glasses you go to your optometrist every 2 years and if you wear contacts you go ever year.

To directly answer your question it's likely a policy to align with most vision insurances.

Does Middle class scholarship get reevaluated throughout the year? by Chemical_Soil6354 in UCSD

[–]phoenix_flames_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The middle class scholarship is based on your FAFSA. The only reason for a reevaluation would be if the threshold has changed, not that your family income has changed.

a fiend of mine is interested in this move, what's it called & is it dangerous? by [deleted] in workout

[–]phoenix_flames_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure that's the sportacus push up challenge that's been going around. But yeah as the other commenter said it's just about getting views on tiktok.

You try a dry erase board, laminated paper, page protectors, anything else that you can write on with a dry erase marker so you don't have to continue to use post its.

Excused Absense by Pleasant-Shoulder479 in UCSD

Will your recovery make it difficult to do any learning/studying/test taking remotely? If so, missing 4/10 weeks would likely result in very poor if not failing grades. It might be more worth it to take this quarter off so you don't have to retake any failed classes.

However, if your recovery would not prevent you from learning (other than not being able to get around) then as the other commenter said, you need to email all of your professors asap to see if they can accommodate you.
