/uni/

Alright boys, op here and I didn't wanna hijack the first post. I am a kv, like many of us, and I just started uni. Yesterday I went to a frat party to watch the fight, and it was fun, I even chatted up a nice group of about five girls and got all their contact info. The thing is, I only had three beers, but laying in bed after that I felt horribly depressed and confused. I don't like drinking, I have a really low tolerance and I get depressed after I drink over two beers. I also hate smoking weed, which the frat(theta chi) does a lot. It's cheap to join here but the hazing process would involve a lot of drinking, until you pass out sometimes, and I am afraid that I would kill myself or something because drinking makes me really depressed. This seems like a good chance for me to break into normiedom, and the brothers seemed to like me, so did some of the girls, but I can't handle alcohol. What do I do guys? How do I learn to drink properly?

Biggest scam in modern times. can get the same result with an apprenticeship, in half the time for free.

>>39342064
I don't know where you live but here in the US it's pretty much impossible to get a job as a tradesman. First you need 2 years of trade school which costs like $3k per semester, then you're competing for a literal handful (<10) of apprentice positions with around a thousand other applicants who also thought that it would be easier than college. The apprenticeship costs around $470 a week, basically paying them to let you work full-time.

>>39342164
UK. You can get an apprenticeship in pretty much anything and you don't even need good GSCE's.

Going back now after I was forced to drop out in 2015 because of bullying flatmates.

tl;dr
>flatmates discover my reddit account with lots of anti-sjw and right-wing stuff
>they confront and surround me in the kitchen with a load of their friends, attack me for hours
>over the next few weeks my property gets damaged, serious harassment from them
>word gets out and i am intimidated by other people including strangers I don't even know
>I give up waiting for a new flat to move in to and just drop out because I couldn't take it

>>39342204
Normally I would recommend responding to their escalating violence and harassment but I know how pussified and left-wing colleges are these days. You'd only be inviting disaster by trying to defend yourself.

Take it as a lesson and remember to never reveal your power level on or around a college campus.

>>39342247
Definitely, although I don't know how the fuck they found my account. Nobody was ever physical with me it was just intense harassment and intimidation, which I had no solid proof of, so there wasn't really anything I could do.

If I would have reported the bullying, the uni would have seen all the shit I posted, which might have got me in disciplinary trouble myself.

uni was when i went full robot and it was horrible, although i do have some experience drinking i can give you
have a very big, carby meal before you start
drink lots of water as you go, like a glass of water for every beer, sneak off to the bathroom if you dont want people to know you're drinking water, which should be legit bc youll be pissing like crazy if you do this
if you're in a party environment it's easy to pretend you've drunk more than you have, just be seen getting a drink, then leave most of it on a table somewhere, if you're discreet people wont notice
if you drink enough youll probably fall asleep pretty quickly so shouldnt have to deal with lying there feeling depressed
youre VERY unlikely to die from drinking unless you walk in front of a car or something
your tolerance will go up pretty quickly, so if you get the chance you could have a few beers on your own one night to help train yourself
youll have to deal with some rough hangovers and probably be sick a few times when youre drunk but its a small price to pay to become a normie and make friends

>>39342883
>if you're discreet people wont notice
they will they just wont say anything because no one cares how much you drink

At least you'll never have to worry about money.

What am I supposed to do all day when there are no classes? I moved in yesterday and all I've done is walk around, eat, and sit in my dorm. I don't know anyone and my roommate does his own thing. There's no activities going on that I know of and I'm so bored man.

>>39343002
study you lazy little shit

>>39343029
I've got a fucking week before classes start and none of my professors have said what we're starting with. I actually do have books but most of then are just workbooks, and I already studied a lot of it over the summer

I just hope I can get a decent job with a poli sci degree. I'll have no debt at least. And I'm getting internships and trying to network as best I can.

>>39343002
See what they're doing in the student center.

>>39343112
The student center here is just restaurants and gym. I see tons of people just walking around in pairs all over campus but seeing as I've seen a lot of them multiple times they don't seem to have anywhere to actually go

I'm going to drop out this week while I can still get a refund. Classes started last week and I haven't left my apartment in a few days already

they're going to kick me from my courses for lack of attendance anyway

>>39342387
What ever you do, do NOT, universities are liberal hell holes swarming with SJWs. If you reveal that you're even remotely right leaning you will be bullied until you're forced to drop out, and that's the BEST outcome, what'll more than likely happen is someone lies about being raped/sexually harassed by you and you get your fucking name and face slandered for the rest of your goddamn life. They ARE that crazy and they ARE that petty

They make us do volunteering projects, which is not bad or anything, but annoying considering the "events" they've had us do all week. I payed my money to come to school and learn, not for them to waste on stiltwalkers and """"sexual abuse"""" victims to come to preach to me about bullshit
Like I've said, I've shoveled mulch, dug trenches, done all kinds of the usual manual labor, but I've never been fucked up like this from it. What's your issue, Anon? School putting the stress on you?

I might break out of my shell and join one or two societies. The only issue is I commute and have to leave my University town around 8PM at the latest and I'm sure societies have things on after that time

>>39343671
How is it volunteering if it's forced. You're not being clear at all, who is "they", is this some kind of freshman orientation thing? Just don't go if you don't want to, I guarantee you won't suffer any consequences from it even if they say you will, but don't act like a bitch because you shoveled mulch lmao

>>39343652
Actually I'm a junior right now working towards a BS in physics, first year in university I got mobbed for defending free speech on the basis of ideological darwinism, it was literally just me versus ten different people in my class. After that I learned just to shut up whenever something political is being discussed

>>39343697
There are these things called apostrophes that can imply sarcasm, Anon. It's not volunteering and it's obvious who they is. You do suffer consequences and that's why it's bullshit. I don't give a shit about the mulch, just what is the point?

>starting my sophomore year

>>39343652
I live in New York and students here have to attend a 3 hours mandatory lecture on "affirmative consent" before classes start or they'll automatically be removed from all of their classes. There are 2 chances to attend and if you miss both of them you're out for the semester.

If you're accused of rape, harassment, sexual assault etc while you're a student you will be immediately expelled and banned from all state universities for life. Immediately, on the first offense, even if it's later proven to be false accusations. ZERO TOLERANCE.

>>39343900

>>39343945

Yeah. 2 people to a room. That's pretty normal for US. You can buy private rooms as well but they're pricy

>>39343944
do you have some kind of proof for this lunacy?
if it is true, obviously you just need to alphabetically file a report of harassment you received from every single student. get a group of people all doing it, if you can. crash the system

I'm reluctant to interact with anyone now though. Thanks a lot, whoever did that. Yeah, that was really that I needed.

>>39345209
i'm minoring in communications and it helped me overcome my severe anxiety. if your professor actually wants you to succeed, you'll get an A just for attempting each project.

pick topics you care about, write down your speeches, and just perform them over and over at your desk until you've memorized everything. my professor said about 20 times. my heart still raced and i felt like i was going to die before every presentation, but it eventually got easier. they care more about you trying than you sounding good

Starting my last (9th) year of undergrad. Moving into a new apartment today. Need to clean my old one and cancel my bills. Going to apply for graduate studies in the Fall, hoping to start my PhD next year. Need to quit my lab after I get a letter of rec. from them, they're becoming dysfunctional and I want to move on.

I spent the first half of the Summer at an intense internship now I'm back for Summer school. Fall quarter doesn't start 'til lat September but we only get a week and a half of vacation and I'll probably just do lab work during that time.

Can't even get my shit cuz the bookstore isn't open (already have most of my books, just need the art supplies they jew you out for)

Wanted to go CS but the entirety of my high/middle school career composited with last semester has made me detest it, amongst other things like the superiority-complex/schizophrenic ridden people I'll have to work with in the feature. Just looking to get a degree in something I like, even if I end up working minimum wage for a while or having to deal with SJWs. It's still more tolerable than listening to neckbeards who have no idea what they're doing. That class was a nightmare.

>>39347983

>>39341434
>Move in is on Thursday
>Roomate I was supposed to have is not going

Anyone read any good books this Summer?

So far I've read:
Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
Martian Time Skip
Time Out of Joint
Empire's Workshop
Don Juan (Lord Byron)
The Double
The Gambler
A House for Mr. Biswas
Siddhartha

Except for The Double they were all great. Don Juan, Three Stigmata, and Siddhartha were probably my favorites.

>>39348035
I'm applying for grad school with a 2.7 GPA this Fall. I have a lot of research experience but I failed classes and did poorly in others due to personal issues. I'm hoping that I can demonstrate a positive upswing in academics and if I write a good personal statement they will look past my GPA.

approximately not at all because who the fuck cares about that, but you want to get them out of the way so they don't conflict with other classes

so I'm fucked even if my gpa is 3.7? I withdrew from most of the classes I failed so there are W's in my transcript.

You can't doubt the triple two's though. But seriously, just go up to them, if necessary remind them who you are or show them some of your work.

>>39348300

>>39348152
I'm taking the regular GRE in late September, a week before the quarter starts. Never published either, except for one lab I had a pretty shitty research experience. The good lab is at my top choice of school so I'm hoping a letter of rec from them will help me get accepted because it would mean I'm almost guaranteed funding. When I asked a letter for my application from a prof. I hadn't seen for a while I just emailed him to thank him for letting me work in the lab, reminded hi on the project I worked on and when, and informed him of what I was up to and what my plans were. Then we had a one on one where we talked about graduate school and the research I wanted to pursue.

>>39348300
If it's not graded, don't do it, if it is graded, lie. Every time that a professor tries to pull that shit, I tell them bluntly that unless it's graded, I'm not participating

>>39348345
your gpa/gre is just used as a starting filter. the fact that you have a 3.7 means you won't get autorejected.
as long as the W's don't raise a red flag (took a class 3 times or more, all of them major electives that you never retook, etc), and they're from before your last 2 years of college, it won't destroy your application.
obviously is worse than not having them, but it's not resume crushing

Do whatever work you're assigned immediately. Go over your class notes right after class. The quicker you do things the better because after around 8 hours after lecture you rapidly forget material.

>not attending uni b/c no money

>>39348810
i'm assuming you're aiming for 3.0 for resume/intern shit. try considering only your junior year so you can apply for shit during your senior year

if your professor gives study material (practice tests/homeworks) make sure you know literally everything on that before a test
studying is pretty subjective on what works for someone. the obvious shit is just go to class, finish your homework.

All the girls are like hysterical little clingy memes and the guys are literally retarded.

Being an older guy is really strange b/c women lose their ability to meme you and you see right through their attempts to play retarded little social games and it starts to just be really pathetic. Maybe it's just me not giving a fuck about anything anymore but they're just so tacky with it.

I already feel like i made a mistake. I chose a lesser known state school instead of the big one that's known nationally. Hopefully this doesn't bite me in the ass later.

>>39348020
I read short stories by Bulgakov, V and The crying of Lot 49 (because they were lying around in the apartment of a relative I do odd-jobs for), Morris's News from nowhere, and Gide's Retour de l'URSS.

If you aren't a social person already, you most likely will stay like that. If you live on campus, don't make any friends, and just stay in your room all the time other than class, then you'll begin to go mad. Trust me, I don't plan on making any friends because Ive already lost all my social skills and desire for friends. I lost all my passion and empathy as well from all the hate I built up inside of me.

So if I had to say one thing, it's to at least try to be social, don't end up like me, a likely-to-be-dropout, asocial, bitter, shutin

>>39347717
you should be able to find some on TPB or other trackers (if you believe in private ones lol), assuming it's a common book

>>39349266

don't go to class everyone will just judge you anyways
you can just never study and just show up for the tests and still pass b/c you are above average smart
it's mostly just a time to chill just stay in your room listening to deep house mixes on youtube and masturbating all night

>>39342036
No you do not. You get the text book if you actually need it, after attending at least one class and deciding you wont drop it. If you drop week 2 getting a book was a waste of money. Also remember you can rent text books.
So when youre douche of a professor forces you to get a book you wont need later, you can save some money

I always dreaded to be a loner at uni so when the first semester started I tried my hardest to socialize and made like 3-4 aquaintances.
I'm not gonna lie I'm a pretty social and charismatic person if I want to so I can't give any hints other than to git gud.

It was nice having people to talk and learn with but after the first weeks I couldn't really stand it anymore. When we have the same classes one should usual sit next to each other, talk a bit and socialize in general. It's tiring. I don't want to be an asshole because they are geniuly nice friends but I hate being forced to be with people. I wish I could put in my music, go to the lecture, learn alone and then go back home without any small talk or other stuff.

It's ironic because it's really easy for me to make "friends" that I don't value them at all. I wish I'd just have stayed quiet. Then I'd have my peace.

Starting to college in another country on friday.
Is there a major that sounds sexier than Computer engineering that a CompEng major can get away with claiming he is pursuing, in the event he is questioned by (or in presence of) a woman in a bar? When socializing in europe, majors are often more important than unis (often because people don't actually live on campus, or because everyone in or around one city goes to the same one), so people ask that first. What major would a Chad who's "like totally into tech and the modern world bro" be doing?

I was thinking Data science, Biotechnology, or Engineering Management.

>>39349464
Anon the key to surviving college is to realize, you aren't there to socialize, you're there to get a degree. If you do this you will no longer care what the normies do. Do what you gotta do, stop caring about the normies, most of them flunk out after the fall. Survive and advance to the degree

Yeah internships are key, degree is just a requirement to apply, its not gonna get you above anyone else applying.
As far as clubs, just join a club related to field of study (ex: Civil Engineering - ASCE)
Depending on your field though you don't need to make many connections with other students. Connections with employers (through internships/co-ops) are what's important

You might like the field better than, because normally you're jumping in on an already existing project, and your employer/clients/coworkers you're working for will tell you exactly what they want. But honestly I can't say anything for certain, take my advice and try an internship before you make any final commitments

Oh I see. Just hope I can find a good job afterwards. That's the kicker. Thankfully I'll just live with parents until I can land a really good one. Most normos aren't willing to live at home but from a financial perspective it's really great.

Do you seriously not have them where you live? There's one in my local supermarket

>>39351997
literally anywhere if they don't have them in your uni bathrooms go to a gas station or just go to the actual store and use a self checkout

Is uni worth it? I worry that I won't be able to hide my autistic fascist beliefs, I generally hate people, and I didn't enjoy schoolwork that much. On the other hand, it seems like the best time to make proper friends and have an interesting time, as well as the fact that my course sounds pretty cool.
A part of me is still a kid though and just wants to go off having adventures (working abroad, army etc) instead

>>39352043

Hello fellow Ohioan, I was accepted to CSU but thought UofA campus was much comfier, also exact same financial situation; good luck.

OU has the comfiest campus in the whole state, I swear to God. Downtown Akron is super nice, though. Beats the shit out of Kent and OSU

I went to OSU for undergrad and will likely go back there for grad. Living with my folks has probably stunted me socially but goddamn all the money it has saved me.

I've looked at CSU and for the life of me I can find a program there I'd like in anything I'd be taking.

What the fuck did you fucking say to me you little bitch?

>>39353118
I meant purely in terms of how comfy the campus is. OSU is the best state school in Ohio, but the campus is just kinda lame if you ask me

I think I've made a terrible mistake.

First year of college I got a dorm room with a guy who was into sports and was really social, but he never really invited me to anything because he seemed to know it made me uncomfortable. I didn't think I'd like him but we were able to shoot the shit for the couple of hours he was ever in the dorm in between hanging out with friends. With him, and through him, I talked to people on a semi-regular basis.

But now in my second year I've gotten a single dorm so I no longer have any dorm mate. Last I heard from him, he was either getting an apartment or moving into a big dorm with four of his other friends. I thought it would be heaven on earth because I can finally do what I want when I want in peace, but it's just now sinking in for me that I'm going to be alone. That without this dude who I never really "befriended" but got along with fine, along with some of his mutuals, I won't be talking to anyone on any basis. I don't know any activities or groups and at this point I'm too afraid to ask or try to insert myself because I know I'll sperg out like in highschool.

I don't want to be that kid who some people see but never speak to. I don't know why, but being alone, completely alone, is starting to fill me with a sort of dread I didn't think I would have. What can I do? Is there anything I can even do at this point, or should I just give in?

>>39342284

You're obviously capable of socially interacting, you're just too lazy to put in any effort, and rely on others to introduce you. That's parasite mentality.

hahah loser i forgot to sign up for classes now its too late haha

I haven't bought my book either but I know I need to .
My class is gonna be so easy though, it's literally just a film course. Last week all we did was watch citizen kane during classtime.

I don't feel like i belong here at uni. All the retarded people here with meme degrees, the whole atmosphere of the people here is just so fucking shallow. Idk, maybe if I just had friends and stuff to occupy my time with i would feel the opposite of how I do now. I guess I'll just tough it out for this semester and see how I feel then.

FINALLY

Passed my project that I failed in May. What a fucking struggle this has been; from reporting the groupmates before the deadline and having nothing done about it, to having to argue and be a cunt to be allowed to do the repair on my own, to waiting 2+ months for it to be graded only to find out that the person that was supposed to forward it to the professor didn't do so.

The absolute fucking cunt also went by the principle of (New grade - old grade)/2 and added that to the old grade despite SPECIFICALLY saying he wouldn't do that and that the new grade would be valid on it's own. But fuck it, can't be bothered to deal with that. It's finally over.

Don't fail group projects lads, report the cunts 2 weeks ahead of the deadline if you can.

more than half the "apprenticeships" in the UK are just an excuse to pay you 3bong an hour for a year, then when your contract is up they don't even give you a full paid job.

Or you can go the construction route struggle for work anywhere outside of summer.

Anyone else work 45-50 hours a week all summer, so now uni is the easy part of the year?
