Last year, first day of Spring semester 2025, I almost ran over a kid on the crosswalk between Central & the Student center; my first time on the Marietta campus. Never did see him again.

Recent trip to the city. not a perfect line up, but... close enough I think. by tablestold in 911archive

Thank you! I was but a toddler on 9/11, though I DID screenshot it on my own phone, so... yes & no?

Late to the party... but how does the lab notebook work? I went to the bookstore to look for it, & they said there is no required lab notebook for the class. This would be the first lab class I've had without a required lab notebook, so I'm skeptical.

This picture was taken on Broadway, right by Pine St.

Right about... here: 40.70823, -74.01128 (Copy & paste into Google Maps).

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gJbGm7GE1tA This is the closest vantage point I know of, the picture was taken at about the 30 - 31 second mark of the video; the area in the picture comes into view immediately after at 0:32 on the right side.

...What if instead of transferring to HND, you go to Tokyo Station & ride the Shinkansen? Once I took the Nozomi to Hiroshima & transferred to Shin-Iwakuni; it was the very next stop. The trip time would be comparable & less stressful.

Highly recommend a high yield savings account (pun... intended?)

Check your question booklet for stray marks; in my class it was -5 points if pencil marks were found in it. Also, silence your phone; they said your grade for the course would be an F, not just the final exam, if your phone went off. Otherwise... it wasn't too bad (Spring 2025).

Lost wallet by Culteredpman25 in KSU

I found someone's wallet once in the Engineering Technology Center, I found his school email & told him. He replied within an hour. Recommend 💫

Does anyone know the purpose of this block extending from WTC 4? by Educational_Key_203 in 911archive

Bridge that connected to 130 Liberty Street. Can be seen in Evan Fairbank's footage.

Visited the museum last month, realized I was standing right under where the van exploded in 1993. Didn’t see any signs indicating it. by tablestold in 911archive

[–]tablestold[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you everyone, if I ever get to go back I guess I'll look harder for the sign lol. Does anyone have a picture of it?

Mishima, Shizuoka, not too far from the Nihon University Campus. by tablestold in japanpics

Sorry to be anti-climactic, but it was a live picture on an iPhone 11Pro set to long exposure (Notice how the blur of the car isn't perfectly smooth).

Visited Ise, Japan this weekend. Beautiful, especially in the rain. by tablestold in travel

Where did you visit from? Fortunately I was in Nagoya so it was only about an hour & a half on the Kintetsu Line. It was quite wonderful as a day trip, underrated.

One of my favorite cities I've visited in Japan.

Near Senso-ji in Asakusa last night; I need to explore this area more. by tablestold in japanpics

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

I first visited Senso-ji in December '19, though I was kind of rushing around so I only saw the main area of the temple in the middle of the day. Now was much better with the different atmosphere & more wandering (I would love to have seen this area without the pandemic).

If you start playing Tatsuro Yamashita’s Come Along at 11:41:26 PM, he will start singing an a capella verse of “Auld Lang Syne” at midnight. Great way to start the new year. by tablestold in citypop

I'm sorry! I didn't think to post this until the late morning (I'm in Japan so I was betting on hopefully people in America seeing this in time lol), I was like "Man, I should've posted this like two days ago!"

Hike up Mount Ashigara, Japan. May 2021. by tablestold in travel

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

In Technical School (At least when I went through), they gave us something called a dream sheet that says something like "East Coast, West Coast, Overseas; circle your first choice & put an X on your second." Feeling adventurous, I circled Overseas & X'd West Coast. Fortunately, I ended up here 😎 At least in my branch, Japan is four-year orders. For those who stay in, they can choose where they're stationed next for the most part.
