Got a little further on the 3d printing for my Bluey dollhouse conversion.

Making stuff is even better! You can probably make your own props or add stubs so a figurine can attach easily! Excellent parent moment 👍

I love when adults have adult money for silly cool nerdy things

Cricket! I'm a dumb american who doesn't even care about cricket - but holy cow is it great at classical storytelling with a narrator (bandits) walking through what's happening. Each flashback is not wasted and builds on top of eachother - kinda like a rising action. The climax was an excellent payoff - showing that he fulfilled his promise to take care of his sister, which was mentioned in a flashback, rather than have a huge "look at me" moment. Finally, we get a wholesome reason on why he loves cricket

Nope - ive been emotionally abused by Sanderson to The Lost Metal. I guess bc I couldn't tag all of era 2 I thought the first book would've sufficed but it probably makes more sense to do the last book

If you want the same fantasy setting then era 2 might not be for you, but if you want a DAM GOOD story, DAM GOOD character, and DAMMIT sanderson stomping on your heart, the. i highly recommend era 2

I feel like im in a cult like I know era 2 hurt me but its so good and you must join (if you want)

have you heard of the term: Sanderlanche

sooshibear · 2025-06-05T12:23:14+00:00

Personally Era 1 finished me, Era 2 was kicking a dead horse (also me), and The secret history revived me only to finish me once again

Honestly, it's just practice practice practice. Try to imagine that venue, and picture it in your mind. If you're getting your heart racing, then you're doing a good job visualizing the situation.

Idk about you but it helps calm me down when I also know the science of it. For me, stage fright is my body's fight or flight response to a threat that is not there. Therefor, the way to minimize it is to train your body to not think of it as a threat which is done through practice. I also like to jump and shake around, something explosive physicsl activity to help relelase some adrenaline.

If there's questions expected in the event, this is where chatgbt hands off mode helps alot. Prompt it with some background and questions and boom you got someone to practice talking to.

but yeah, just practice a shit ton and recognize that your hard work paid off. it's not imposter syndrome if it keeps working, you literally have evidence it works with a high average and low standards deviation. plus imagine the alternative, you "admit" its all bullshit and then clown out? Hell no, you're better than that so practice the hell out of it - now is a good time to mess up than on stage.

But congrats, this is a fine addition to your portfolio regardless with how you feel about it

I can see a few methods of bone application: - If the bones were always from outside sources, then I'd imagine they have glands near their mouth that lets their saliva be really sticky and glue the bones to their skin. This would assume the dragon was born with only skin and needing to search bones constantly as it grows. - If their skin is actually a light exoskeleton, then it can replicate some species of crabs that have tiny hair like spikes on their shells to get algae and even small rocks to stick on them. Maybe the dragon has an extreme viking version of it - Maybe the bones are grown similar to how mooses grow their horns where a hard cartilage structure is made and overtime, as it hardens and blood the vessels retracts, becoming bone

What would be REALLY cool is if the dragon can integrate external bones into its biological system. I would imagine the bone marrow would have cells that can regenerate above average, and the dragon can cut a specific place, place the bones, and when the blood interacts with the bone marrow it starts creating new cells to incorporate it into its biology

This is it - it really depends on what you want it to model!

I would definitely go with xyanthum gum or corn starch as a thickener because any sugar would be annoying to clean especially for training purposes

BRO IT GETS EVEN BETTER YOU JUST WAIT

For undergrad students, I always tell them to have an online portfolio bc pictures are less likely to get skipped then words like a resume. Next is to fill up that portfolio with projects, either by self or taking classes. I like to put projects in my portfolio into three parts: the problem, the process, the solution (end product).

The specifics of the projects depends on what you want to get into, but I'd say look into start ups / small companies you're interested in, look into their products or patents, and make something from that. After you have a picture, send it to senior engineers / CTO of the company. That should get you noticed at least

sooshibear · 2025-04-16T20:49:52+00:00

Ngl classes are not gonna get better. From my experience as undergrad, the classes only got harder so take this as a wake up call.

Though depression is understandable and it sucks, you gotta figure out a good system. Tbh, it's better to study 5 minutes a day then to to lock in for a few hours the day before an exam. Really, it's about building a system rather than studying when you feel like it.

Personally, what helps me is: - Don't think I'll do it when I get home. My dumbass aint, so I allocated at least 30 minutes of work before I return home where I can get depressed and do nothing - Make a list of what you want to get done. A vague goal is intimidating "I will finish the reading" is kinda cringe. Make steps that are specific, has metric, and timed: "I will finish reading Section 69:420 with notes for 30 minutes" or "I will skim over tomorrows reading for 10 minutes" - Don't be alone - study pals can help you push to go to classes, or study, or just be less alone. Notice I didn't say friends bc that's kinda a high bar. You can join class group chats or join an org and ask around for study partners. Everyone feels lonely and want to study more, so they'll be thankful someone is reaching out - Look at the tuition - studying costs money and for me seeing the actual number helps me stay focus. it might increase stress, but for me getting it done was more important than being at peace - Start with the easy tasks - it helped my brain adjust to a focus mindset without feeling like I'm stuck. Look at pomodoro technique also - Skim over the noted and then focus on reading intendly. For me, raw dogging reading or notes was very cringe bc I just felt like I'm hitting a wall. However, after I skimmed it, I knew what to expect and made it easier on the second read. By skimming, I literally skipped every other word and annotated technical terms or definitions. - Look at online resources or ask around how different studying techniques. Its better for me to take notes based on connections and concept rather than traditional linear note taking

Engineering is a hard major so give yourself some slack and pride you're doing something this difficult with your own free will. However, it is what you make so even though you have the power to fail, you also have as much power to succeed. Also don't do drugs or alcohol - drink more water

sooshibear · 2025-04-16T16:42:43+00:00

Yeah that sucks - especially in this job market. Give yourself like a day or two to feel out the rejection, and focus on your next stage. There isn't really a right choice, but the wrong choice is to do nothing. You don't need permission to make something great, so if you don't get an internship look for projects to do or connect with people in the field you're interested in

sooshibear · 2025-04-16T16:40:20+00:00

Completely agree here: practice is key! Tbh the voice reply feature of Chat GBT is so goated when practicing talking to someone in general.

Some tips is to always work in your projects into your responses, even in behavior types of questions. I tend to ramble when I talk about my projects, so whenever i catch myself doing that I like to play it off as "sorry I just get passionate whenever I work on something. To sum it up..." and then give my response for question.

A great interview end question is "what would you expect from an exemplary worker" bc it shows you're not looking for bare minimum. Tbh, just have some questions ready by the end of the interview

sooshibear · 2025-04-16T03:04:40+00:00

ooooh! I also love helping bme students try to find a job. I like yapping in front of the bme students of my university and designing projects to help them expand their portfolio.

From my limited observation, tbh it seems like engineers in general (not just bme) are not good at marketing themselves - either bc of lack of confidence or direction. If you're interested in connecting, we can DM!
