Background: Taking intro to stats course online (weren't any other options and I've done well with only math courses before), this is my final year of college once im done with this semester im only taking one other class this summer. I have good grades and i've done very well in this course for the last three months
Heres how I FUCKED up: I go to read my emails this morning and find that my stats course has not posted my final mid term grades (not extremely out of the ordinary but strange). I go to check my grades online and nothings posted, only grades viewable are in statlab (still not really out of the ordinary). I go to check syllabus (which I will note that I did read before courses started). Reading through grading info and don't see anything, and then I fucking see it, nestled between paragraphs about fire safety and discrimination (its a fucking online course so I skimmed past it) is a section detailing that all of our chapter quizes and exams are to be taken through a proctoring service. Well I never fucking used a proctoring service, I just did them all. Heres my only fucking defense, in the main section of the syllabus in the test area it says that exams being proctored is a possibility and up to the professor (so I got it in my head he would make an announcement detailing the proctoring info).
So im totally fucked completely fucking fucked. There isn't any way to come back from this at this point. I can still withdraw with a W as a grade.
what the fuck do I do /adv/ I've never fucked myself over this hard before and im honestly a good student with generally good grades.
>>16898387
What does that mean?
>>16898387
your life is over op
might as well kill yourself now
>>16898387
you should have a record of your grades somewhere. If you were getting grades and knew your grades throughout your course, contact the proctering service or your professor and explain your situation. If you have a copy of your grades (if they were posted online, there is a copy somewhere) you should be okay.
tl:dr: Contact prof, contact proctering service. If you did them and turned them in and got a grade for them, they have a record. You just have to set that shit up.
I am positive you are not the only student this happened to. You are fine.
how i do i use this? is it like a face mask? leave it on for 15 min and wash off?
>>16898386
>body scrub
Do not use that shit on your face. It's a scrub, meaning it's an abrasive exfoliant. When you've soaked your skin in a bath or shower, rub it gently on your skin to remove excess particles. Don't scrape too hard because you could hurt yourself and bleed, depending on how large the granules are.
>>16898393
i know about the face part but do i wash it off right away or let it sit for a min
>>16898424
You use it to scrub, so no, you don't have to let it sit. It will likely dissolve in the water by the time you've let it sit and won't work. Can't you just google how a body scrub works?
Hello /adv/
I'm going to need to create a resume for some construction or labor jobs and I'm at a loss for things I could or should include in it. It's going to be handed out from an agency so I don't know exactly where it will end up so it's kind of unsettling and I really don't want to create some lols worthy thing that's going to be passed around. I don't know it just doesn't feel all that great and i'm not looking forward to it.
>>16898372
put the shit you've done on it you fucking moron
Basic CV/resume outline:
>name
>contact details
>personal statement
"I'm looking for blah, I have XYZ to offer"
>key skills
>employment history
>achievements
>interests

hey guys, how can i take a small nap without fucking oversleeping and ending up missing everything i have to do?
can't wake up at all, alarm clock doesn't wake me up. live alone. must not oversleep
>>16898349
You have to invest in multiple alarms. They make deafeningly loud ones for the world's heaviest sleepers. Invest in two or three, and space them several feet apart so you have to get up to turn all of them off.
>>16898353
i either don't care and sleep until they turn off, or stand up, turn them off, and go back to sleep inconsciously
now i got only my phone, but really gotta take a nap. :c
Is it weird that I asked my dad for advice about falling for people? He's really the only person in my family that I feel that I can be honest to when it comes to talking about things that have been stressing me out. After speaking with him about a crush I have on some guy it felt good to finally get that out of my system but then I started to regret doing so.
>>16898347
No, in a healthy relationship discussing things like that should be easy. He raised you, I think hes comfortable talking about your life with you. Question though, are you a girl or guy?
Depends on your dad. If he has a healthy view of relationships and people in general, it shouldn't be a problem.
>>16898370
Girl, sorry I should have clarified earlier.
How do you post webms that are more than 3MiB
You can't. If you're trying to post on /r/, I take a screenshot of the WEBM and quote the post in the OP
>>16898361
I downloaded a video off /gif/ tried posting on a different thread but was more than 3MiB
>>16898400
Don't boards like /gif/ and /wsg/ have larger file size limits? Best you can do is link to the post
I don't need advice, just insight. I'm chatting with this girl and have been for a couple months now. We don't live close together- it's a long distance thing. We aren't dating but we chat basically every day. We plan on visiting each other in a few months for the first time. This is my question though: every morning she sends me pics or vids of her, about half the time they're nudes, other times they're not. I want to just casually ask her why she does so, basically I want to know from herself why she does..maybe she feels a certain way about me? Is that an already obvious sign that she has feelings for me or is it just her being a tease?
pic unrelated
I think you'll find that out once you two meet.
So I have a question. I'm in my mid 20's, and I have a bald patch on my pubic hair. I think I might be responsible for it, as I used to often itch the area in question and frequently ended up pulling hairs out. Some of the hairs in the area have also gone white. My question is this. Is there a way to regrow the hair, and encourage the follicles to start growing hair again? Would hair growth cream work?
Pic unrelated.
Why not just trim/shave your pubes?
>>16898309
If some of the hairs have gone white, it means that the skin itself was damaged (by your scratching I'm assuming) and that's why it grew back that way. I didn't know this happened with humans, but my friend's horse has this happen. He ran into a fence and got a scar, and his coat in that area grew back white instead of brown like the rest of him.
There might be a way to get the hair to grow back by proper skin creams, and then once the skin is healed, you could use creams, but the fact that you mentioned the white hairs have led me to believe you probably damaged the area enough that the bald patch may be permanently bald from now on. Sorry anon.
>>16898388
*use skin cream to heal skin and then try hair growth creams, sorry I left words out
What's the point of becoming stronger as a person?
>>16898307
>physically
Because it's a good feeling to be healthy and fit. You can do things that less-strong people can't do. Like skiing. do you know how much that shit wrecks your legs if you're not in shape? You get to do a lot of fun things if you're strong.
>emotionally
You can get through life easily. Being maladjusted in the emotion department sets you up for a world of pain, anger, sadness and other unsavory feelings. Emotionally strong people have happy relationships with friends, family and significant others.

So you don't need to make fuckboi threads like this one.
What do i do about my girlfriend never admitting she's wrong?
So my girlfriend and I have the same astrophysics course in Uni and i was up a bit late doing homework and got confused on a problem. it aggrevated me because i couldnt figure it out, so i asked her, the first thing she kept asking and saying was Captain hindsight esq things "why did you do this earlier" and more. I got kind of aggrevated with her now and she told me i was being rude, so i told her what it was; She told me i was being sensitive, which in turn, made me angrier. it just escalated from there and now she is ignoring me.
Why am i in love with her? all she does is pin the shit on me and try to guilt trip me
oh and btw, i even tried giving her what she wanted and giving in, but she just continued to add on to my embarrassment of giving in, so i just broke that facade.
Start dating once you are older
Where is she wrong in this?
>got kicked out of college
>diagnosed with anxiety disorder
>had to move back home with my parents
>started smoking weed everyday which hindered my maturity and made my anxiety worse
>buried in student loan debt
>can't defer because my parents consigned on my loans since I had no credit
>fast forward 7 years later
>still no degree because I can't afford it
>still living with my parents because I can't afford a place of my own
>quit smoking weed and my attitude has improved way more
>got a decent job at a call center, but I get paid only enough to get by
>no girlfriend
>last one broke up with me because I'm a loser
>addicted to cigarettes
>overweight
>has abnormal and scattered interests, making me relatable to practically nobody
>conservative values, which is a big turn off where I'm living
>has maybe 2 real friends who I rarely ever see
>mfw
What should I do?
inb4 kill yourself, there's only one thing the dead know: it's better to be alive
play video games?
read anything you like?
put some money on random homeless dude/charity?
i dont know, it works for me.
how old are you anyway
>>16898262
I'd start focusing on yourself first. First quit the cig habit (I'm proud of you for quitting weed) and start working out to get healthy and lose weight. See a psychiatrist to try different anxiety meds til you get one that works for your body. Keep up developing your interests, just so you have hobbies to look forward to. This in itself is a huge first step.
Once you seem to get your physical shit together and start to mentally rebuild, start taking some classes at community college for the sake of learning new things - not for the sake of going back to college. Just for learning new things and seeing what it's like to be around other people in a class setting again. Take stuff you never would have thought you'd be interested in. And if it turns out you really dislike a particular class, just drop it. No problem. CC classes are cheap anyway. So exploring your own interests through some classes is step two.
Step three is finding a part time job. Just some minimum wage type shit to make a little bit of your own money, and something that still gives you time to pursue a few classes but provides a distraction from schoolwork. Even try different jobs if you like. I worked at a cafe and then did some office assistant type shit once I got sick of food service. Try new things but be a good employee. Having a job will teach you new skills that school can't.
Step 4 is looking at your current life. See how you're doing. Acknowledge that you are now stable. Now you can begin to address where you want to go in life. You have proven to yourself that you can manage different settings: school, work, home life, etc. Now you can figure out what you want to do with yourself, whatever that may be. Maybe you want to go back to college. Maybe you want to find a job.
I should tell you that I wrote this >>16898358 based on the fact my story was the same as yours up til the 7 years part.
Switch that with 5 years and I'm now back in university. I still have bad days, but I'm functional again. I have hope for you too, anon, but you basically just have to put in a lot of work and try completely new things in order to get new perspectives. Try shit just for the sake of trying shit, because life can always get worse, and you need to find ways to make yours get better.
I have several good friends who are super nice to me, most everyone I meet seems to appreciate me, but I still feel very insecure.
You see, I have acne. Like, a lot. Everywhere. It's not the most severe case, but it is so widespread I feel disgusting all the time. I started working out 6 months ago, and I noticed I also have scoliosis. My left ribs stick out, my left shoulder is higher than my right, and my torso is uneven overall. I can't bear seeing myself in the mirror. Not only am i covered head to toe in blemishes, but I'm also deformed, and can't do anything about it. I feel so insufficient, like I'm not good enough for people of the opposite sex, and it's really taken a toll on my love life. I can hide most of my imperfections by simply wearing long sleeves all the time, but i can't even fathom the thought of having someone else see me with my shirt off.
What should I do?
>>16898210
For the acne, look up "the regiment" follow it EXACTLY. It works perfectly.
Scoliosis, can't help you there but definitely keep up with the working out all we can do is play the cards we're dealt.
As for accepting yourself as a whole: Do things you love, and get really good at them. Learn how to play music, learn how to build cool things, learn anything always learn and just be passionate about SOMETHING.
Don't worry, you are capable and deserving of love and being loved. True human connections blast right past all this surface level shit. You're gonna find that out for yourself someday, but in the meantime just try to picture it.
I may be getting some news soon. What would you do if you only had a year to live? And what's the point in working toward anything if you're going to die anyway (whether it's a year or not)?
>What would you do if you only had a year to live?
I try to live in such a way that if i was told i only had one day left to live, i wouldn't change anything.
>>16898205
LMAO yeah right guy.
OP, I would say the point of living 1 year is the same as living a hundred years - to support and enrich the lives of the people around you, to foster as much love as possible. Make sure you say everything you need to say to the people in your life. If the worst really does come,take the opportunity to shed all of your inhibitions and insecurities and just crush it for a year straight. Do literally everything you ever wanted to do. See everything possible. Spend as much time with other people as you can.
>>16898233
doesn't that take a lot of money? im 20 and living with a very abusive house and i dont want to die here but now i have no time to work my way out
I need some advice guys.
There's a girl I have feelings for but she has a boyfriend. However, I can tell she likes me back by the way she acts around me. I've heard her say he's controlling and he makes her mad a lot. I really want to be with her but i dont know how to go about this situation. (Im 18 and shes 17 if it helps at all)
>>16898173
rape her and see how she responds.
>>16898178
I'll keep that in mind. Thanks
What's the best way to deal with a girl you're not interested in that messages you on a dating site, but seems like a perfectly nice person? I feel bad ignoring these girls, but aesthetically, I'm not into it.
I just hate being a dick or knowing there's another person on the end of the message waiting and hoping for you to reply and be interested...
>>16898142
You tell her you're very flattered but not interested. Simple
