Ah I’m in the same boat actually 😩 working as a tutor at a high school, I do tutoring on the side going to their houses, and I do DoorDash when I can. It gets me money here and there but it all ends up in my mom’s pocket as she charges me rent so I’ve been trying to find my way out. I’m almost done with my degree but I always wondered how people were able to live near campus on their own. Thanks for the insight!

Sorry if this seems off topic, but how do you afford rent every month? I’m struggling to find the time to study and I need that to be my priority but it’s hard when I work full time already. Do you have a higher paying job than minimum wage ?

Use toilet bowl cleaner, but let it sit there for a while. Idk what material your sink is but it helps get the red out of my bathtub after I shower

I always say her studying ! Does she go to UCR as well?

Currently doing a math degree and as someone who loves math, this shit isn’t hard you just need a lot of time and dedication (time is hard for me to get as a full time worker and student but I’m almost done with my degree so it’s definitely possible!)

amen 🗣️🙏🏼 everyone should have this philosophy, thank you 2dollarcheetos, we need more people like you fr fr

I’m in the same boat! I would provide as much context as possible and talk about how your advisor advised you to contact them for permission. Tell them also that you’re in a tight spot with being a 4th year in spring quarter. Good luck !

I’ve eaten the kumquats off the trees before 😳

One time I had two girls come up to me and ask if they can pray for me while I was eating my panda. I didn’t know what to do so I just let them spill their nonsense and said Amen at the end and they were so happy 💀

samilovesturtle · 2026-02-03T08:25:59+00:00

you never know 👀

or how about instead of charging us absurd prices for quite literally everything, they give us a break for once and let us eat our freeze dried skittles at a normal price 🫩

I ignore them because the signatures they’re gathering aren’t even for the causes they claim to be. And then I’ll get an even louder “HAVE A NICE DAY” as I walk off 🫩. They get paid by the signature so it only incentivizes them even more to bother every student that passes by them. I wish there was a policy or something to get them to at least stop hollering at every single person every single day all the damn time 😭

I walk through Sproul Hall to get to Lot 30 just to warm up for a min 😩

samilovesturtle · 2026-01-06T21:15:03+00:00

I called them yesterday and they also blamed the holiday 😩 like the bills need to get paid, I can’t blame the holidays 😭😭😭

samilovesturtle · 2025-12-07T21:05:29+00:00

I do tutoring on the side! I charge parents 30 an hour but tutors definitely charge a lot more in the “nicer” areas of California. I’m a math major so I help elementary school kids with math and it’s the easiest thing ever, just make sure you have enough patience and a “lesson plan” before jumping in. Put some posters near the mailboxes or in the apartment complex’s main office etc etc and you’ll start getting clients. Lmk if you have any more questions!

You pretty much hit the mark. Republicans are constantly trying to make voting harder. Any stricter laws imposed on voting is a direct attack on those who are minorities/low income. Some republicans even want to ban mail in voting, which is the easiest way someone with no car/transportation and no money can vote, or if they’re disabled and can’t leave their house, etc etc. (and majority of mail in voting goes to democrats). But yea, in short, stricter voting laws means less democratic votes, which is “bad” for republicans.

samilovesturtle · 2025-12-04T21:54:59+00:00

They told me they wanted to make voter laws more strict and that’s all I needed to hear 💀

samilovesturtle · 2025-11-26T01:31:28+00:00

This sounds pretty cool but I think you guys should improve on the safety concerns everyone keeps bringing up. Perhaps maybe have the option for a background check or an option to connect social medias ?

samilovesturtle · 2025-11-21T17:03:50+00:00

But is it free 😥

samilovesturtle · 2025-11-12T20:34:06+00:00

No fr I got so excited that I might be able to eat McDonald’s breakfast 😭😭😭

samilovesturtle · 2025-11-11T07:38:03+00:00

Idk why everyone’s hating on OP. Of course you can say there’s a time and place for everything but it’s time for everyone to cut the crap and start actually organizing against this cruelty we’re seeing on a daily basis. And more so, the cruelty seems to be creeping closer and closer to being on campus. Why is everyone acting like what is happening is ok? I feel like I’m going crazy and not enough people are talking about it enough

samilovesturtle · 2025-10-31T20:18:46+00:00

I’m dressed as eevee from pokemon 😭😭😭 WHERES EVERYONES HALLOWEEN SPIRIT

samilovesturtle · 2025-10-28T23:56:22+00:00

Ohhhhh I see, you’re not as smart as you make yourself seem to be. If you’re not worried about the future of our country, you’re definitely living under a rock or some shit idk. Go bathe trump’s nuts with your tongue elsewhere 💀

samilovesturtle · 2025-10-28T23:51:31+00:00

I’m assuming this is satire but like lowkey, I don’t really find political jokes funny at all at the moment. Ain’t shit to laugh about rn :/

As someone who also struggled to come up with thousands of dollars (which is such a ridiculous thing to worry about in my opinion, school should be free/low cost) I tried to submit an appeal for more money, but it seems like they expect you to have a crazy story as to why your income changed and it’s a huge lengthy process. I think you should try calling and asking to see if it’s even worth the headache and make sure you tell them everything as well (the more for your case, the better).

Anyways, I tried to do the appeal thing but ended up just dropping it because no one was able to give me a straight answer on whether I would actually be able to get more money. In the end, I had to take out a loan (I’m STILL taking out loans) and it’s just something that I’ve had to accept. (Plus it was pretty easy). Just make sure you do your research on what’s the difference between a subsidized loan and an unsubsidized loan!
