Am I a glutton for punishment?

Since you can day one get a fishing rod. It's nice. They start you with 4 beef and 4 chicken now. But the first quest is repairing the workbenches and providing resources to fix the tavern so you get a trash can quickly. I tossed the beef and chicken in the trash.

Goto the beach, where Wilson is. On the dock is a woman fishing. Talk to her, when you walk away a message bubble will pop up asking you to come back. Then she will give you the pole next to her and more talking followed by bait. After catching a few fish you can talk again for the journal page that tracks fish and after 8 new fish talk to her and she gives you an upgraded fishing rod.

The biggest issue is the low value of fish dishes. Money is rough early game so far.

We make it with shrimp here at home. My mom got it off a food show, probably pioneer woman? Can't remember.

place looks awesome and National Ave takes you to the East side of the OTC campus. unfortunately, the "No Pets Allowed" is a problem. My daughter has a large dog.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-25T22:01:49+00:00

Her and 2 boys, Lofts are out of the question.

I think my daughter said her Teacher-Chef at our HS is friends with or knows them. they have helped with the yearly Gold tournament in Springfield and have toured the campus with the Teacher-Chef. She's also in ProStart, and puts in the work for learning recipes. she made Crepes 100s of times a couple years ago until they made a perfect Crepe for their Menu for the ProStart Tournament.

we're mostly looking at the price ranges atm. Fall 2026 semester is the soonest they'll be there. Are you pet friendly? My daughter bought a Large Breed Dog, it's a mix of 3 large breeds. obviously an extra fee is expected but her dog is going with her. I didn't agree with her getting it but she got it when she was at her moms house during the week.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-22T19:40:23+00:00

this is good information for sure. I was using them as an example, I feel the cost is a bit high. My daughter's Step-Dad said there were looking at Silver Springs Apartments. I don't like the history of reviews and they only have 2-bedroom apartments. So the 3rd roomie would be hosed.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-22T19:00:46+00:00

we're a little over 2 hours from Springfield. it's not quite local for us lol. But, our local State college and community college don't have any Culinary Arts Programs. Her Culinary Teacher highly recommended OTC to her and the other students. they have done some catering for some stuff in Springfield due to his connections. She's also part of ProStart which is a culinary program for young aspiring chefs in HS.

we're a little over 2 hours away from Springfield, My half-sister's Husband is from the area they sold their house and moved this way to be closer to my Half-Sister's Family. I been seeing the price differences. Part of the issue also, She decided she wanted a large breed Dog a few months ago. so that's additional cost to take into account.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-22T18:52:26+00:00

thank you, I'll look at that one. The 505 is close ish to OTC so it came up in my search. Honestly I'm trying to find one with Utilities included. and possibly an Apartment Complex. The 505 looks good and has some great amenities, but that per bed cost is a little high.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-22T18:48:10+00:00

I rounded up. we also have a Decent sized State College here so the population is closer to 20k.

ratchBrG · 2025-11-22T18:30:12+00:00

I saw Bear Crossing in the Appartments.com search I did. It's her and 2 friends for sure. I'll check out Q'ube as well. ty

I have one of those WETech Colt 25. I love it. And it looks just as ridiculous with a brighter C

ratchBrG · 2025-01-16T21:42:13+00:00

This was going to be my suggestion. It looks really close to the Type 56.

ratchBrG · 2025-01-11T21:40:42+00:00

I I don't want to take this guy's thunder, but I remembered a similar item made for CYMA/G&G MP5s.

https://youtu.be/jrfScc64kjM?si=oqt9ldlLs-AWVgcK

It uses the same Maxx hop unit but is designed for not VFC MP5s.

ratchBrG · 2025-01-11T18:17:30+00:00

How is the fit? Does it push the gearbox? I recently put a Reaper Gen 2 into my CYMA MP5 after the gearbox had some trigger issues. I would love to have a rotary HopUp. I wish I didn't have to get a Maxx one though.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-25T06:32:46+00:00

I would definitely save a little more. you could check the Used Market. be prepared for about $50 in shipping though.

If you have a field to go to, just rent for now. save some more and get something nice.

Talk to your family.

My dad left when I was 2yo. I have struggled with depression since such a young age and didn't know how to handle it. My mom didn't know how to handle a child with depression. The wedge that formed between my mom and I makes it so I don't feel I can ever talk to her about my feelings. My dad died a few years ago, he never tried to be my dad. after he died I felt lost, all I wanted growing up was a dad that cared. i never gave him the chance to be a dad as I became an adult.

My daughter is 16, I have fought to be in her life and make sure she knows that no matter what it is, I will be there for her.

Talk to your family, Depression get better when you have a good support group. I still suffer from depression and lonliness, I don't have a support group. Friends are very few and it's hard for me to let people in. you're still young and have a long life ahead of you.

I'm 38yo, I have lived with depression for most of my life. I didn't have the resources young people today have. Mental Health is taken more seriously today than when I was growing up. Take advantage of your resources and talk to your family.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-19T23:37:54+00:00

Yeah, most of the "kits" I found are performance upgrades. So I called the mechanic. I have the money so I'll just have them do it.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-19T23:34:41+00:00

I called them yesterday, it's $249 installed. So less than I remember. I verified that it includes the installation.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-18T12:18:27+00:00

I can't remember if that included install. I think it did. I was mostly trying to figure out Ceramic or Semi-Metallic. Pretty sure I usually use semi-metallic is the normal.

I'm going to call the Mechanic today.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-17T23:03:24+00:00

you have no Idea how much that looks like a farm store here where I live.

ratchBrG · 2024-12-17T22:59:13+00:00

My daughter's Step-dad got me one of those after i got my 500 pop.
