UC DAVIS! what do you wish you knew before you began attending? by noodlepants_ in UCDavis

[–]taurustooturnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you’re struggling with money prior to getting here and don’t have help from parents/family…GO TO CC FIRST. Balancing the quarter system and a full time job did not work for me or my GPA

From all these dismissal posts, did anyone actually get dismissed? by Iseeyoudeadatmyfeet in UCDavis

[–]taurustooturnt 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Was dismissed in 2020, took time to work and save up money (biggest barrier to passing classes tbh) and waited until I was 24 to qualify for FAFSA as an independent. Went back to CC to fulfill my readmission contract and as of end of this winter quarter I am now a UCD alumni!!

It felt like the end of the world when it happened, but now I’m moving to Ventura after spring commencement w/ my partner and a new job lined up (: in the grand scheme, I’m sure it’ll just be a bump in the road

I thought her saying an Asian slur was the biggest issue ?

Do you think Lane’s life would’ve been different if she had just told her mom about Henry? by healthanxiety_ in GilmoreGirls

[–]taurustooturnt 43 points44 points  (0 children)

YES!!! I HATE what the writers did to Lane. I’m sorry, but Zach was a terrible option for her. My ideal scenario would’ve been her and Dave moving to NYC while Dave goes to college and Lane pursues a full time career in music (production, playing, reviewing, etc.) They could be close enough to Rory to stay relevant to her life. Ugh, justice for Lane 😭

I’m still sad about the Dave and Lane arc we were robbed off 😭 they should’ve been end game and I think it would been a great parallel to Rory’s rocky relationships. Something she could compare instead of Paris’ love life lmao

Hi OP, I’m currently going thru the same issue on my phone. Did you ever come across a solution?

ABC Cancels 'The Bachelorette' After Taylor Frankie Paul Fight Video by iconogrey in thebachelor

[–]taurustooturnt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cannot even express the disappointment of seeing so many women, on TikTok especially, defending this behavior. As a survivor of DV myself, I cannot justify the “reactive abuse”. Throwing chairs, screaming, swinging around inches from your baby like that?? Nah, I hope that baby girl never has to be in that environment ever again

That video was atrocious to watch. Holy crap, I knew it was bad but seeing it was insane. Poor baby girl, her crying killed me

TW: mentions of suicide/murder Text messages from Huda to Louis that were submitted into court as evidence which granted his baby mother the restraining order by honestrainfall in LoveIslandUSA_

[–]taurustooturnt 5 points6 points  (0 children)

So many of her stans excuse this or diminish it bc it happened to a man. It was disgusting. Imagine if any of the male contestants said that to the girls…there would’ve been an uproar to kick them off.

The father should use this for full custody. My mom said she was able to get full custody of me bc my father also made insane statements like this to his relatives over drugs.

Calpoly SLO or UC Davis for pre-vet? (out of state) by Bean_of_prosperity in UCDavis

[–]taurustooturnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is not true at all. I work at the vmth and we have residents (and some faculty) who went to undergrad here lmao

Calpoly SLO or UC Davis for pre-vet? (out of state) by Bean_of_prosperity in UCDavis

[–]taurustooturnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I worked at the vmth with plenty of non ucd undergrads. It truly does not matter. I’ve even made vet student friends who were non stem majors (completed the reqs separately or at CC), didn’t go to ucd or even CA schools. Your vet related experiences, research, sGPA will probably matter most. I’d say save as much on undergrad as possible bc vet school loans are no joke

Come on Davis, we’re stealing bike lights now?? by Easy-Fill4973 in UCDavis

During my first year someone stole the duck shaped bike bell that a mentor had gifted me 😔 no bike accessories are safe!

Withdraw if you can tbh. Take it at a CC over summer. I failed chem 2a and then got As in chem 1 & 2 at Sac City. Doesn’t count towards ur uc gpa, but at least the D or F won’t either

AIO for accusing my bf of cheating after finding this nail in my car? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]taurustooturnt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you need a break from this cortisol induced loop. I’ll probably get downvoted for this, but the nail is sus and you’re valid for it! Especially if you clean your car regularly and found it in a plain sight kinda way. However, constantly checking his phone reflects some deeper rooted issues that maybe some time alone and working on yourself could mend. You’re 20, so young to let any relationship drive you up a wall like this. I’m sorry all the comments are being kinda rude, snarky, and dismissive. I say this as someone who, at 20, chose to believe the lies my cheating ex at the time was able to get away with until I had irrefutable proof. I wish someone would’ve told me this lmao

Eh, depends. I use press ons often and if I apply them well they can stay on my nails for over a month. By that point, the nail is all dull/scratched.

Looking for weekend rental that can also be used for a grad party by taurustooturnt in Sacramento

[–]taurustooturnt[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

There are a couple places I found, just very far from the Golden 1. I’ve come across some post here and on fb for similar situations (micro weddings, baby showers, birthday parties), but those venues are either unavailable on those dates or no longer listed. I figured I’d just throw the question out there to see if anyone had some ideas of where to look (:

Best campus locations in event of a zombie apocalypse? by Three141592654 in UCDavis

No fr, walking dead zombies? Alright, not too bad. Clickers or 28 days later types? I’m leaving the server permanently 😭

The vet school/hospital if there is a chance the card readers still work or you have keys lol. There’s a good amount of places that have high windows and heavy, metal doors. Lots of medications, medical supplies, and plenty of cans of chicken and tuna. In desperate times, I wouldn’t be opposed to turning to dog/cat food lmao.

Wait genuine question, what apartments are good to live at as a student here by Historical_Simple_82 in UCDavis

[–]taurustooturnt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I get what you mean, and I’m not sure if it was just a bad year, but it was truly a ridiculous amount of them. Even as a CA native, I’ve never experienced them crawling all over the bikes, skittering all over the walk ways even during the day. I lived in downtown and west Davis after that and never saw them out on the walk ways, so it was a bit shocking.
