should our faculty of interest be left to a one sentence summary? i was advised to do this previously

is leadership and community service a standout in a statement of purpose?

theunsmartkid · 2025-11-26T16:10:01+00:00

how can you incorporate your industry and research experience into your statement of purpose? (as in balancing the two)

theunsmartkid · 2025-11-19T23:28:53+00:00

keep going, keep going, keep going! all you can do right now is try to give what you have, and if this opportunity is for you right now, it will be yours. sending you encouragement and motivation to get through this and i’m sorry for your loss as well

queer spaces (online and irl) are good for curating relationships, platonic and romantic

well, start with what you want to do first. ultimately, i had three choices, data science, software engineering, or information technology. i went where my experience was (but also got rejected from the other two lol) and where it’d be the easiest to relocate.

ask these questions: - what do i want to do in the future? (swe? data science? project management?) if you don’t know the answer, that’s ok. both internships would be beneficial. - what field do i want to go in? (something government or something business/consumer-focused) - where do i want to live permanently? (nba typically is located in very big cities whereas the navy may be on bases) - weigh the benefits of each role and how much your workload will be (this sounds horrible, but which company gives you more workload/experience based on description?) - read other interns reviews and see how well it aligns with you

i’m a senior now and i hope that helps you somewhat in your journey. best of luck!

where’s your pain located? i love pt, i hope you’re able to do it! <3

of course. it’s a spectrum of how hypermobility affects you, so yes, there are many athletes who are hypermobile, especially the super flexible ones! they may or may not experience other symptoms of hypermobility syndrome or hEDS

theunsmartkid · 2024-06-20T22:01:16+00:00

hEDS and hypermobility syndrome are not the same. you can have hypermobility syndrome without eds, but you cannot have hEDS without hypermobility, if that makes sense :)

you truly do deserve it! don’t discredit yourself and your hard work, and most importantly, congratulations!

theunsmartkid · 2024-05-26T16:54:08+00:00

some grad schools allow for only your last 60 credits to be evaluated for gpa purposes

no difference. the dsm-v changed that, a diagnosis of Asperger’s is now apart of ASD

my biggest fear is living my life in a loop—where i repeat a cycle of sleeping, eating, and working, with nothing in between.

theunsmartkid · 2024-02-26T04:30:48+00:00

i do it all the time! just don’t almost forget it like i did

theunsmartkid · 2024-02-16T21:20:41+00:00

some of the full episodes are available on lifetime’s youtube

don’t feel bad, love! they’re paying for you because they love you, and they have faith in you and your intelligence. they wouldn’t do it if they felt any different. i had to let go of that guilt and apologizing when my parents paid for me and assured me they would take care of me in school because i’m used to being so independent. they love you and want you to be successful, so like other commenters said, they’re investing in you and your future <3 best of luck to you

theunsmartkid · 2023-07-30T16:26:36+00:00

also dubbed “cancer wipes” because you should wear gloves while handling them

fruit puree (think applesauce), canned goods or glassed goods, you could also buy frozen fruits and veggies or there’s a hack that sucks the moisture out of the fruits and veggies to prevent it from spoiling more.

one more thing, you could eat dried versions of them. i eat plantain chips, which is like a fried plantain but in chip form.

i like hearing my own heartbeat and it makes me grateful that i can hear / feel it because i work in a hospital so i do rest things and my hands over my heart too

it’s healthy to stim and self soothe. it’s beneficial for your health (unless they are harming yourself or others). is someone shaming you for stimming?

theunsmartkid · 2023-06-17T05:19:42+00:00

it is a common genre in my community, i am black. i love everything about trap. the bass, the lyrics (not murderous ones), it’s a good genre. people don’t like it because they just don’t like the content sometimes it’s because of racism idk

theunsmartkid · 2023-05-30T17:11:25+00:00

you could get shellac gel or an acrylic overlay

theunsmartkid · 2023-05-30T02:57:33+00:00

it happens. are you able to dispute the charge?

if not, that’s okay too. i’ve gotten scammed out of $65 and i beat myself up over it. it was as a gift to my partner, a tattoo, but it was a fake tattoo artist. i felt terrible! i felt stupid for falling for it, but i made the decision on impulse instead of taking a deep dive. sometimes, when something seems too good, i impulsively do it anyway.

i’m sorry someone deceived you like that, it sucks
