Ja sam sad na dijeti nakon što sam se ugojio posle povrede prošle godine. Dostigao sam 98kg na 183cm, a cilj mi je da dostignem oko 70-75kg. Na poslu sam izuzetno fizički aktivan i pokušavam da pojedem sve kalorije (1200 na dan) tokom ručka. Mislim da sam već izgubio kilogram ili dva ovako (počeo sam pre nedelju dana).
Kako ste vi?
I submitted my application for naturalization in November, living in Chicago. Now I'm doing seasonal work in another state, and I think I'm going to have my interview scheduled while I'm here. I know I can get days off to go do my interview and everything. Is it possible to just move the interview to this other state or is it much more difficult?
Got to Yellowstone the other day, and I genuinely love the environment and don't mind the job I have. Sure, complaints exist, but the benefits outway the negatives here for me.
The issue I do have, though, is with the social life. I'd like to believe that it's my fault and that I just suck at socialization, but I also can't help but notice that people have gotten into cliques that seem almost like the ones in high school. It kind of sucks because I thought that everyone being in their 20s would be enough to be more serious about the social life here, but it doesn't seem so.
I've struggled with meeting people this entire time, as I've been approaching many of my coworkers to start conversations, but they don't seem to be enthusiastic at all, and I myself have not really been approached, so it's kind of bumming me out seeing so many people just joking around and hanging out while I'm stuck alone. To be honest, I don't really like the whole cliquish feeling and how it sometimes feels like we're still in high school.
I'm still grateful that I get to work at Yellowstone, so I think I'll power through things, but I'd also be happy just having someone to hike with or hang out with, you know?
Does anyone have any tips or advice on what I myself can do? I'm clean, outgoing (or at least try to be), and I don't think I'm intimidating or rude, just to get some of the more obvious things that would bother people. I'm trying to avoid transferring to another location just because of a bad start with people here.
I'm an American who just got done with his bachelor's degree in the humanities (anthropology). In the USA, we're able to switch fields upon getting to our Master's if we demonstrate experience outside of our Bachelor's that could translate into the program's requirements (say we do research outside of school). I could hypothetically get into a Master's program in ecology here if I was able to get the adequate experience.
My first question is if it works similarly in Slovenia. I've seen on the website that it tends to require people who have taken biology courses, but that might be misunderstanding stuff because of my limited understanding of Slovene. I'm able to do my Master's for a much smaller cost in Slovenia due to having a passport from one of the Balkan states, so it'd be great if I could just do a Master's program over there.
My second question is how many research opportunities there are in general, as I'm not sure how different that entire system is in Europe compared to the USA where Master's degree really focus on research.
Finally, do Master's students over there work as TAs (teaching assistants)? Is that a thing at all in Ljubljana?
Apologies if these questions have obvious answers that I just haven't found online. I did a lot of digging, but I don't really trust my dodgy knowledge of Slovene to understand all the information online.
I'm always interested in meeting new people from outside the USA, so I'm curious if there's anyone here that knows they're going to be working at Yellowstone this summer.
Ne znam gde drugde da pitam, a baš me zanima jer ću da radim tamo tokom leta, pa me interesuje da li će biti ikoga iz Srbije ili okoline Balkana.
Going to be working as a housekeeper in Canyon Village this summer, and I was just curious if it's one of the areas where people get tips working that job. If so, how good have the tips been usually?
The pay is okay for me, but I'm trying to figure out how I will ration my earnings, and I'd like to know if tips are usually given to better calculate how much income I will want to save and how much to have for myself. I hope I haven't phrased this in a way to make it seem entitled
Mislim da bi bilo dobra ideja imati nešto takvo jer smo ionako svi već onlajn, pa možemo da razgovaramo o našim interesovanjima bolje na Diskordu.
