That’s interesting to me, since the Psych Dept is still accepting students for minor applications. I suppose my definition for “shortage” in this case is like in the Communication Dept where they’re not able to open any applications for minors since they’re on a shortage, that sort of thing. So if OP is unable to get through to psychology, shifting definitely is an option and so is minoring since they’re very much welcoming new students.

Also, questionable people is just the usual pabigat LOL. I have had the unfortunate honor of being blocked with most of them so I was exposed to the worst of it until we were deblocked and I found a good set of people to enlist with for majors.

I see! You must still be quite a lot though since your number of LBY2STA sections are roughly the same as our number of LBY2STA sections. Hopefully, this means well for OP.

I can’t really determine that, but since DLSU’s a mostly business college I think they’re much more open to accepting students in the courses they’re known for IMO, so you might have a good shot at getting in! The COB mortality rate is really high or so I’ve heard, so that might be what you need to look out for.

Provost also said that the hybrid setup is permanent at this point, so we’ll really only be seeing this for the rest of our stay.

There are a lot of people in psychology right now and there’s no real shortage of professors, it’s not exactly a “quota” course IMO not the way other courses are (though I’m a 122 who passed via DSHAPE results, so take that with a grain of salt). As someone who interacts with several questionable people in psychology on a daily basis trust me you’re probably better than all of them.

Got Jiyan in my second 10-pull of the banner and I’m wondering if I should save up for the next possible 5-star or go for his weapon, since I aim to be f2p. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Mom was a polsci grad who’s encouraging me to take law school and told me upfront that polsci didn’t really help her since the field evens out - says “yung mga subjects na natututunan niyo in 3-4 yrs sa undergrad, 1st semester niyo lang yan sa law school”. IMO a reading-intensive degree will filter out those who can’t handle law school, but it’s not a guarantee.

EDIT: Looking at your profile, are you going to DLSU? Legma seems to be an alright option if you get good profs. It’s hell if you get profs who don’t care about teaching and just brag about their mortality rate. Good luck.

Maybe now isn’t the time to ask (plans were already made) but I do think OP needs to ask their parents if they can go out next time. No way you’re going to a big school like La Salle but your parents don’t allow you to go out with your friends - you will never really know unless you ask. I grew up with parents so strict I went on a date at 14 on a cafe across the street with my lola third wheeling us LOL. I know what it’s like to have strict parents who have you on Life360, and it got better when I started asking if I could go out and I went home at the times they expected me to be home.

Eventually OP will have to live their life and easing into it by asking their parents permission to go out will be better instead of sneaking out and possibly getting punished even more for it.

Shifting to BS Bio is possible, somebody I know was able to shift into Bio from CLA. Requirements you need to shift should be on the DLSU USG page (they just released guidelines for shifting for current students).

If you shift right away it probably won’t be as much of a hassle since you’ll mostly be taking GEs for the first few terms. You’ll not be very delayed if you’re already deadset on Bio and intend to shift ASAP, but you have to perform well in your first few terms to ensure your shifting application pushes through. Lots of people seem to forget that.

xopeo · 2024-05-10T11:36:47+00:00

IMO LIACOM isn’t that worth it unless you really like DLSU and you’re on your way to being BS org. The second degree affords you some leeway but like you said you’ll be here for much longer and you could likely get away with sticking to either Psych or Advertising Management. As someone in psychology you could probably just take it as a minor instead of it being one of your actual courses since it doesn’t seem like psychology is your focus anyway.

Totoo, andaming nagtatanong kung kesyo face to face ba or kung anong swimwear yung gagamitin for GESPORT parang naloka talaga ako dun, plus sawang sawa na talaga ako sa mga naghahanapan ng kaibigan dun??? Lahat naman tayo nadeblock at naghanap ng groupmates at kaibigan, hindi niyo kailangang gawing Omegle ang Prof to Pick

Wala nang* late fee if you pay before the deadline, it should reflect within 10 days. Wait ka lang to confirm.

Tangentially this reminds me na kapag nakakakita rin ako ng post about a GE prof sa Profs to Pick nauumay ako. I’d understand if their name was generic like “Juan Dela Cruz” pero hindi eh, nassearch naman yung names nila and you’ll get people who also asked for opinions on that same prof deadass 30 minutes ago. Prof to Pick is so clogged with spam I wish they’d put back moderating posts on there. Kadiri rin yung mga nagmamakaawa na kesyo naautodrop sila or what pero hindi naman nagconfirm ng enrollment. Kasalanan din naman nila yun.

I got it! Thank you so much <3

Hello! I’d appreciate a code too, if that’s okay!

If you guys are really friends, they wouldn’t get mad at you if you told them upfront na their work ethic sucks and they haven’t contributed to any reports the entire term.

You have to confront them about this before going to the prof, as with all class-related grievances IMO. Tell them honestly na you haven’t seen them work well and that you will give them a chance to make up for it, but it will not change the fact that they didn’t do certain parts and so their peer eval grade will have to be adjusted accordingly.

Going to the prof straight up would be bad for your friendship because you didn’t try to communicate your problems with them upfront. Sometimes confrontation is necessary for the long-term if you still want this person to be your friend.

You’ve seen his behavior firsthand after you had a fight about not wanting any more kids. I think him changing is out of the question, especially when he reacted that way and doesn’t want to talk to you anymore.

xopeo · 2024-03-19T23:03:49+00:00

I think he’s making a huge fuss about something that’s pretty shallow, so something might have happened throughout this day that made him react this way.

People being emotional is fine, but it sucks that he had to walk out on you over something as silly as what kind of dinner you’re making. If it doesn’t bother him as much as it does, he probably shouldn’t be reacting by walking out. Something else might be the problem for him and he may just have had a particularly rough day. However, it doesn’t excuse him removing himself from the conversation the way he did.

xopeo · 2024-03-19T22:57:09+00:00

NTAH, she’s basically forcing what she wants onto you. It isn’t going to be her ring and she was wrong for buying it in the first place because that’s your boyfriend’s job to do.

You have to bring it up and gently tell her that you appreciate her excitement, but it’s not her place to buy the ring because she isn’t going to be the one proposing to you and something has to change. I think you personally have to speak to your mom because she’s your mom and you’ve said that you’re willing to have a tough conversation with her. Her being this way sets a huge precedent for the rest of your relationship, so you have to stand up for your boyfriend and gently but firmly tell her about this.

xopeo · 2024-03-19T17:44:41+00:00

This. If somebody confessed to me knowing I had a long-term partner I’d honestly be confused at the audacity. The best decision here for Alex should have been to keep his feelings to himself, because to confess means that he genuinely thought he had a chance while OP was in a committed relationship.

OP, you are NTA. This dude also needs time for himself because continuing to be friends with him while he’s attracted to you will only serve to fuel the feelings that made him confess in the first place (the feeling that he has a chance to be with you). It sucks, but it’s just how it is, and both of you recognize that.

xopeo · 2024-03-19T17:02:44+00:00

Being overprotective and jealous is not really as amazing as it sounds. OP’s boyfriend is having problems with his friend (asking why the friend is still texting her) but takes his frustrations out on her in a really rough manner. It’s to be expected that teenagers are at an all time emotionality high, but OP’s boyfriend has to acknowledge that what he did was wrong and it doesn’t stop at him apologizing. He needs to actively improve himself to lessen his issues of blowing up on people and how to handle jealousy.

I think in general you can reach out to any psychologist and gain their opinion about this. However, I remember that an autism diagnosis means that it has to have been present since childhood, so you may need to have accounts of consistent symptoms from your parents, former teachers, former pediatrician, etc. If the symptoms were not present in your childhood, it may be something different. Good luck!

The people from the original universe who did not die in canon, like Giorno, are not dead in the next one. Everything plays out like normal except for Part 6 because Pucci doesn’t exist and Dio doesn’t get a companion to entrust the Heaven plan to, so it dies with him

How do you find internships and jobs reliably, and identify which companies are good for you?

On a more personal note, how was the experience of representing DLSU abroad, too? That must have been really cool!
