Need advice from current/past gov majors

Long story short I just got rejected. I’m not giving up ut is my dream school.

If anyone wants to dm me I’ll b happy to share my stats. My goal now is to transfer for the spring 26 semester. I honestly thought i had a solid application but I might just be self biased, I would really like an outside opinion especially from a gov major. I was in dual enrollment and have a little over 60 hours. I didn’t do so well in some of those classes in high school because I was going through some personal problems :/ Im now paying the price and already retook some. I have all of my core classes out of the way because I got my associates and it lowk is making my transfer application more complicated.

Besides that any advice on how to go about my application in the comments is appreciated!

Just got rejected as a Government major

This is my second time applying lol I applied in hs got capped and couldn’t accept it bc I was a dual enrollment student with over 60 hours it just wasn’t smart imo to do a program where I have alr taken almost every course and therefore have to redo them. I started classes at ACC got a 4.0 did some gov/politic related stuff and continued community service since it was a big thing I did in hs and had positions for. I had a problem w my transcripts that I had to resend multiple times so I had to eventually appeal just to get rejected. I’m not blaming anyone im just super bummed out :/

I think I want to try again ut is srsly my dream school but idk how I’m going to get in if classes that are in progress aka my fall 26 classes won’t count towards my application. I’m frustrated and if anyone in gov at ut Austin has any advice or will let me share my stats and help decide what to take this sem pls dm me :)

Good molecules under eye treatments

So I’ve been wanting to start using an under eye cream to treat my eye bags due to lack of sleep and stumbled upon the good molecules brand. They’re a really affordable option and have clean ingredients but are their eye treatments effective? Which one would best suit my needs? Pls leave any opinions or suggestions!

What actually makes your skin look GLOWY?

I use a collagen facial cleanser, rhode glazing milk but I just ran out, cerave moisturizer for dry skin, and tinted sunscreen. I’m pretty young and my skin is thankfully clear but it just doesn’t glowww. I saw this girl in public recently with amazing glowy skin she looked so healthy and fresh. It made me realize there’s genuinely levels to nice skin.

I really liked rhode but I feel like I could find something better? What product am I missing in my skincare routine!? 🥹

Edit: is anyone familiar w the brand good molecules? I’m looking into affordable skincare options but don’t know if anything from them would help

My eye bags at 19.. how do I get rid of them?

I’m 19 yrs old I recently finished my first year of college and my sleep schedule has never been so messed up. My eye bags are not genetic they have never been this dark. I’m sure my eye bags are coming from my lack of sleep. I stayed up really late for school often and it just messed up how I sleep. I can’t go to sleep until like 3am-6am even tho I’m not currently in school. I’m planning on ofc fixing my sleep schedule but I’m also looking into products for eye bags pls recommend me a product that best fits my situation. Im so tired of wearing concealer!! 💔 As of now my skincare routine just consists of a cleanser, cerave moisturizer, and tinted sunscreen. Both drugstore and high end options are welcome!

first time getting sent the wrong item

I only shop on depop I’m not a reseller so idk how this works. I ordered a top and got sent a completely different one. I messaged the seller as soon as I opened the package and they told me they must have switched some other girls and my order and that this is the first time this happened to them. They suggested me to ship it back and they’ll message the other girl to do the same and then ship our orders correctly. I haven’t gotten to it yet but I was wondering if there’s a way for depop to like protect my order when I send it back IF something goes wrong and they just keep it. I don’t want a refund I rlly want my top. I’m a little cautious bc they kind of took forever to ship my top out until I sent a message and take a bit to respond which I get ppl have lives but I just want to be safe! 🥹

Food handlers certificate

So I just got an interview for a restaurant. I’ve only ever worked in retail so I don’t have food handlers certification, I interview really soon and was wondering if I should get it by then or tell them I’m working on getting it asap. I’m nervous that if I don’t have it by the interview they’ll choose someone else. Also where do I get one online? Does it matter which website I go with?

Is there a major difference between paying just a deposit vs paying full price for figures?

I want to buy this new fig bc jeans my fav character in attack on titan and ive never seen a nice s4 figure. Should I pay the full price rn? I’ve never pre ordered a figure so im new to this.

Any negatives or positives to paying just a deposit for now? I’ve never heard of this website so I’m a bit hesitant.

I’m addicted to picking at my skin 🫩 and it’s bitting me in the ass

Basically what the title says. I’m a 19yr old F and have been picking at my skin since like 8th grade. It doesn’t matter if it’s a few pimples, bug bite, a scar from an injury I WILL PICK AT IT. I’ve picked at my forehead, my cheeks, anywhere in my face ngl, arms, lower back. I knew it would leave scarring but my previous picking scars have faded away and thought I would be fine but I’ve had these scars since November and I’m starting to get scared they won’t fade. I’ve even tried using a heavier base to conceal my skin but it just shows through and it’s ruining my confidence 💔💔 I also have a few scars on my body and that’s a whole different problem I obviously can’t conceal them so they’re just there.

My current skincare routine in order

AM: softymo cleansing foam collagen, crave daily moisturizing lotion for normal to dry skin, cerave hydrating mineral sunscreen spf 50 (but I lowkey don’t rlly use it bc I bought and ended up hating it)

PM: softymo cleansing foam collagen, rhode glazing milk, cerave daily moisturizing lotion for normal to dry skin

Best credit card for an 18 year old?

I’ve never had a credit or debit card and I’m turning 19 soon. I only use cash which is such a hassle to deal with I’m tired of it. I was thinking abt RBCFU because I asked around and that’s what my closest friends all use but i don’t know if that’s my best option. I also don’t know if I should get a debit or credit card? I want something I can stick with for a long time.
