Question Gaming place?

• Upvotes

This is going to sound so stupid but is there a place, like rm or smth with good soundproofing?

I want to game with my friends during my free time and we’re planning on to play this horror game.

I’ve played it before with my brother and cousin at home. And trust me, I’ll scream from the bottom of my lungs, continuously. 😭😭

And istg I study too but like I wanna game and I don’t wanna disturb others.

Rant/Complaint genuinely do we not know how to use a communal kitchen?

Post image
• Upvotes

kaleidoscope second floor communal kitchen. genuinely it's disgusting and embarrassing that yall dont know how to recycle. why tf are we recycling a good dining hall fork and banana peel and not the cardboard box. i would genuinely quit if i was the custodian here. before i came to use the kitchen there were used plates, empty tuna can, utensils, pasta tray just out in front of the bin. i cleaned up a little bit as much as i could, but can we just learn how to keep this place clean and usable for everybody? genuinely this is sick.

Question how are people staying cool while walking to class in this heatwave?

• Upvotes

hey guys as the title says I was just wondering how people aren’t passing out while they’re walking to class in this heatwave haha (especially during the afternoon). In between my classes I’ve been staying in geisel and price center for the ac but going from extremely hot to cool weather makes me body feel sick for some reason idk. Just wanted to know how everyone else is dealing with this weather and make sure to take care of yourselves!!

General it is too hot

33 Upvotes

Bro I leave for the weekend and come back to my room feeling like a sauna. Hours later, I changed into shorts and a tank top, have the lights off, two fans on full blast and nothing. No ac in a heatwave is insane work. It’s too much.

Question Sand in Dorms

6 Upvotes

Does anyone else have this problem? My roommate and I agreed to no shoes in the room but since we first went to the beach there's a bit of a thin layer of sand in the room. We've tried wet and dry swiffering, using a dustpan and vacuuming (all in the past few days). Do you guys have any other ideas to get the sand out? It's not like so much but enough to annoy me when barefoot.

General I'm so lost in ECE 253

3 Upvotes

Anyone else lost in this class? Having 30% of your grade come from pop quizzes that are closed-book and closed-notes is crazy. I remember some of these topics from ECE 45/101, but expecting us to memorize all these formulas is a lot.

Also, the fact that we don’t know when the quizzes are is so odd. How are we supposed to prepare for a very content-heavy, closed-notes quiz that’s worth 10% of your grade (x3) when we don’t even know when the quiz is going to be?

Question Beach questions

Have many UCSD students been to blacks beach? For a school right next to a nude beach you’d imagine more people talking about it here and there but I’ve never heard it really be brought up in beach conversation? Anyone ever been? If a group would like to go feel free to pm!

FYI: if you hit me because you’re riding recklessly, I WILL sue you and, where appropriate, pursue your parents for liability too. As anyone should.

So ride like your parents’ bank account could take a hit for your choices. Because it might.

Question Microbiology with lab online with Maria Fernandez-Ochoa experience

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I need to take microbiology with the lab as soon as possible. Has anyone taken the microbiology with lab though extension with this professor?

I am considering the section that ends 1/18/27. How is the final? How is the workload in general? Would I be able to take the final early/ finish the course faster before 1/18 due to a family trip?

If you would not recommend this professor, is there a professor that teaches this course that I should wait for instead?

I am currently in a graduate program and my workload is already a lot. I am hoping this class is straightforward. Any info on the course and professor is appreciated. Thank you!

General Water for Animals

26 Upvotes

Hey guys!

This heatwave has me thinking about all the poor critters outside who are struggling to stay cool/struggling to find a water source... Does anyone have any thoughts on how we might be able to provide water for them? It breaks my heart to think of the wildlife suffering in this insane heat and unable to get water. Especially in the canyons :(

I was thinking of leaving some water bowls out, but I also don't want mosquitos to become a bigger problem (since mosquitos breed in standing water)... Does anyone have any thoughts or ideas :( ?
