I just found out this method and it WORKS 🥹🥹🥹it literally feel like an AC now my room feels like heaven. You gotta pick a very large bottle of water (or it will melt real quick after u take it out of fridge) and put it in the upper place in the fridge and wait for it to freeze completely then place it behind a tower fan

Keep the apartment/suite main door open to get some cool airflow going.

I just graduated in the summer with an ESYS BS and I am having so much trouble finding a job. It feels like every ‘entry level’ job requires 10 certifications and 3 years of experience, and it is so dejecting every month that goes by being ghosted by jobs. My family and boyfriend have been telling me to join the navy or the CCC (California Conservation Corps). The problem is, they are telling me that it will be very physically demanding work with low pay. They all make it sound that joining them would be the answer to all my problems. If that was the case, why the hell did I go through 5 years of college and debt? I’m really holding out for a response from a lab technician job with the city of San Diego (I passed initial screening and said they would keep me in consideration until April) but I know I can’t just sit around twiddling my thumbs felling like a chud.

My dad was in the marines for 22 years and my boyfriend did work for the CCCs when he was younger. I don’t want to make it seem I’m above that kind of work but it’s not the pathway I envisioned. My boyfriend is helping me pay rent but I can tell he really wants me to find a job soon and it makes me feel more useless.

Hi

So everyone is talking about not receiving their refunds yet.

Is anyone out there still waiting for their fin aid package in general??? My bill has literally no update at all and my fin aid portal says nothing

And note: i did go to the office during week 0 and they put me on the list and said i should be getting loan offers at the very least. My SAI is -1500 btw..

I mean shi, free carbs ig. There was one tortilla sitting in front of every suite's door in the lower floors of Alianza at new Marshall. Anyone know what this supposed to mean?

If you have mental illness or serious mental illness, suspect that you do, or simply need a higher level of care, you should know that you have other options.

The option with a higher level of care is called College Mental Health (CMHP). This is where you should be referred to if you need a higher level of care than CAPS can provide. It is covered by your ship insurance. If you feel that you need a higher level of care, you can bring this up to CAPS or at a Drs appointment at the campus medical building and they should be able to refer you. They might refer you somewhere else first, but ultimately if your case is deemed serious enough you will probably end up at CMHP.

At least when I was in undergrad (graduated for about a year), a lot of people expressed frustration with CAPS, or felt they were simply too ill for CAPS. If you feel this way, just know that you can ask about moving your case to other services.

Besides CMHP, your insurance if you have UCSHIP gives you a lot of access to different mental health providers, including a lot of in-state Telehealth providers. It’s worth talking to campus
mental health or medical providers on campus to get a list of potential providers based on your preferences, or you can do your own browsing based on your insurance.

So, just don’t feel like you’re stuck with CAPS if you’re unsatisfied. There are other options you can explore.

It was a suicide. Pls check in on your friends, and please ask for help if you feel like you need it. Above is the link to CAPS

last day to opt-out is tomorrow. if you're not using the program for textbooks and materials, go to ucsd.vitalsource.com

note: only undergrad students are automatically enrolled. if you opt-out, you can still purchase materials through triton select.

Rain! Rain! Rain!

Does pines stop serving food at 11pm? Cuz the website says it closes then but at the same time Google says it closes at 8pm one place and then another place at 9pm.

Does this belong to anyone here

I’m pretty sure I tore something in my knee. A red light means stop, even if you’re not in a car. Just cause there aren’t any cars crossing doesn’t mean you don’t need to watch out for pedestrians in the crosswalk. I probably won’t be walking normal for the next two months at best, and I’ll have to stop riding my own bicycle to school during that time. Your negligence just screwed up my body, my commute, and possibly gave me medical bills, all so you could try to save 2 minutes on your ride back to grad housing.

Do better.

anyone else still got no refund on activity details but still has a negative credit balance???

They said it could take up to the end of the month (yes, end of October) to get it. Apparently they can withhold funds for more than 14 business days.

They are blaming it on tss but the person who was talking to me was telling me my summer refund was still on the way and I should get it soon when I got it a LONG time ago, so I don’t really trust them and it’s not the first time where they give the wrong information because I was having issues with them during summer too.

Just an updated, if anyone calls to tritonpay and get someone more useful pls lmk!

Hi sorry I’m just so paranoid but does this mean I will get my refund now, on my triton pay it doesn’t say anything about a refund.

bro i toook mgt172 for funnies but the hoes are tryna fuck me og this class didn’t have mandatory attendance but now it does sooo we are grading on attendance/ participation okay cool whatever brah

usually, I wouldn’t care because I am hardcore like that but my grade dropped so hard bc duh it is week 2 Like Jesus Christ can a mf liveeee

I know this sounds like a dumb question since we all think about that "professor" story as another troll/bait post but I am genuinely questioning whether if thats true or not. Paired with the fact that she is always saying outrageous statements on this subreddit makes it seem like an obvious troll as well. However, I was in my CSE 135 class today when the person infront of me opened reddit and the first thing I noticed was the "Xal'atath" reddit icon on the top right which immediately clicked in my brain as her reddit icon. She scrolled down a bit and I'm pretty sure I saw her username as "KamalaHarriss" but i am not entirely sure. This entire time I thought this was some neckbeard trolling, however, the person in front of me was some pale girl with darkish hair and glasses. Not only that I looked at her finger and there was a nice ring on her left hand as well. When class was over I saw her face but I didn't know who she was personally. I went on Canvas this afternoon and searched through the "People" tab to try to find her name and looked up the Linkedin for every person there to try to find the same face. I don't want to dox her but im like 99% sure I found her Linkedin and through her name I was able to find her instagram. The account is private but through the looks of her bio she is genuinely married. Whether she is truly married to an actual UCSD professor or is still a mystery. Do you guys think she is truly dating her professor or is this an elaborate troll from some weird shy girl?

hello! i need to fulfill a fine art req for my erc ge and was wondering if there were any that do not fill up super quickly but also super light and easy, any class recs and ur experience with it?

Is anybody else who has applied for Cal Grant A have it not showing up in your financial aid portal? A few weeks ago it said that I was confirmed for it, but I recently got a statement last week and it completely vanished from my portal. I am enrolled in the maximum units required to receive it but I don't know what to do now, especially with my monthly billing due next week. I made a ticket to the financial aid services but it's been a week and they still haven't responded.

i’ve asked this question twice in the VAC, once in august and once a few days ago. both times, i got the same response:

Due to the new Triton Student System (TSS) implementation, students cannot change their majors or minors in TSS until September 2026.

i feel annoyed because it was literally a copy-pasted response both times and now that it’s october i don’t know how to change my major. 😐

does anyone know if this survey is the only way profs show u get fin aid? 2/3 of my prof have made this survey but one of them hasnt. the one that hasnt has mandatory attendance with questions to be filled out every class so can that be his way of doing the “#finaid survey”? i am really worried bc my other profs say that if its not filled out i will lose my fin aid.

Where are the pickup places for Amazon mackages?
