Guys, I am a freshman, and I need your opinion. I found a great duplex complex (700$ a month), that has parking ($150), bike storage, and Veo scooters, BUT it is on French St., 10 minutes away from the Yard. What should I do? Take this place or no?
RUTGAS BABYYYYY WHOOOOOO
WE’RE SO BACK RUTGAS IS THE BEST WE RUN THE WORLD RU HA HA RU HA HA RAHHHHH
Last time Rutgers was relevant was during the Ray Rice era. After that, since 2014, we have had exactly 2 seasons where we went over 0.500.
What "faith" is this person who is one of the highest paid state employees asking for here?
If you're getting embarrassed by bum ass teams, then Rutgers is *worse* than bum ass teams.
My distant cousin died yesterday, and he was only 24. Four years ago, my other cousin died, and he was only 18. Both of them were stellar students. Both of them worked their asses off for a future they didn't get to live. Both in vehicles on the highway. I'm in engineering, and I hate it. I'm a junior now, and the ball is always rolling, but I don't know what I'm doing here. I just do classes, go to stupid ass club meetings, apply to internships, suck up to professors and recruiters in hopes of a fucking job. Just had a terrible weekend, and I had to study my way through it. I just worked a shift tending to sad and hurt patients, just surrounded by death and pain and people's regrets. Picked up some stupid republican Trumpie dipshit who got hit by a car was telling me that he bullshited his way through his youth, barely passed high school, and now he's a millionaire stepping on the necks of poor people essentially. Boasted that he makes money in his sleep. Now I'm gonna stay up all night studying for shitty ass fluid mechanics and stupid ass calc 5. But the crazy thing is that I can just study my way through this shitty ass degree and die the day after I get my diploma like my cousins, while some dipshit is gonna live a great life, get hit by a car, and survive. While people like my cousins died. Like, what is the purpose of all my suffering? It doesn't guarantee any success. It doesn't buy anything.
Btw, I'm not suicidal, so please don't hmu with this nonsense. Also, I have a therapist, and yes, I'm medicated. Okay bye.
Now that homecoming is pretty much over with more exams underway each time I see my family again I'm constantly reminded about how sad I get when they leave- especially as an OOS student. However, I know this applies to many students not just out of state but in state.
For the first time freshman students just do know the feeling doesn't go away and at least for me hasn't gotten easier. It's really hard sometimes to process that the gaps you don't see your family members it appears that while nothing may have changed a lot does at the same time whether it's through seeing more grey hairs, updates about financial situations, or just life updates as a whole.
The reality is this is part of adulting and is normal. Before I left for college I was constantly arguing with my family quite often about how excited I was to leave (I'd also say how I wouldn't talk to them... yeah not proud of this btw..) Looking back my family wasn't the most strict but they we're definitely limiting at times. I couldn't go to sleepovers and those kind of things. Now that I've left and spent some a good amount of time in college I have so many moments where I remember the time we all shared one household and have come to realized that they really did all they could to protect me because they knew they couldn't forever. I would have to experience things on my own. As time passed my family become very chill and supportive of a lot of the stuff I've done at Rutgers and for that I'm always appreciative of them.
Not sure exactly what I wanna get at with this post but hopefully some of you guys can relate to this. While the "RUScrew" definitely exists this school has really helped me grow as a person and opened my perspective a lot. It's also made me realize just how much parents sacrifice for us cause man... those times my fridge be empty I be reminiscing about the days they were full and supplied... LOL
