Driving southbound on the 113 today and witnessed the shoulders of the road covered with tomatoes for all the way from Woodland. I know the Roma tomato season is in full swing right now but what’s up with this? You would think the transport trucks would invest in some tarps. Tomorrow I’ll just pull onto the shoulder with a bag of tortilla chips

lack of motivation

Upvotes

I feel like I literally cannot commit to anything consistently. I’ll get motivated to study, exercise, play a sport, eat healthier, etc. and then within a few days I completely fall off.

I’m getting really tired of constantly starting things and never sticking with them. I genuinely WANT to be disciplined and have routines, but I have such a hard time making myself do things when the motivation disappears.

For anyone who used to be like this and actually became consistent, what helped you? How did you build discipline when you couldn’t rely on motivation?

Older UCD Students

Upvotes

I’m considering making a club for older students. I’m 26, just transferred, and I know roughly 70% of UCD students are between 18 - 22 years old.

Would anyone be interested?

Maybe we could host meets at a coffee shop, play board/card games, study, and just offer mutual academic support. I’m open to more ideas and can make a chat to brainstorm. I’ll also have to figure out how starting a club at UCD works.

Also this wouldn’t be to exclude anyone more so to just create a community for us older students so we don’t feel like odd ones out.

LGBT friendly and good barbers in Davis?

Upvotes

im trans and not too comfortable with telling people about it unless I 100% know they wouldn't be hostile, so i would really appreciate it if someone told me about lgbt friendly barbers, ideally they'd be cheap too.

Looking for new friends!

Upvotes

Hello! I’m a new transfer student (M21) and I wanted to put myself out there and try to meet some new people and make some new friends. I’m already somewhat moved into the Green so mostly looking for similar people in the same boat. I’m studying Biochemistry and Molecular Biology. I’m a huge fan of Pokémon. Love the DS/3DS games and cards (if I’m able to find any). Looking forward to meeting you!

Bio 002 and Mat17c

Upvotes

Taking bio 002 with C. Ross-Ibarra and M. Singer. So far all of singer's rating are ass for Bis 2a, and Ilbarra doesnt have any ratings for 2a or 002. Anyone have experience with either of them for bio 002, anything regarding lecture and discussion attendance. And during tests are there hella Ta's that walk around (they always get me stressed). And for Mat 17c, im taking with A. Daddel, does he still do random assigned settings for tests. And are his discussions and lectures also mandatory? Very important, i dont remeber with other profs, but is there discussions first week, from the 23rd to 25th. Thanks guys🙏

advice for incoming senior

Upvotes

i was admitted to davis in 2021, took several gap years, did courses elsewhere and now i’m coming back for my final year. the most time i’ve spent on campus has been a few months at a time during summer sessions, i’ve never actually spent a full quarter on campus. i’m considered a senior with all the work i’ve done elsewhere & such so im in a weird spot (also 1-2yrs older than most seniors) so is there any advice on how i manage campus & such. for example, i don’t know where most locations are on campus & i also never got a student ID card lol (i’ve been a davis student this whole time tho)

Dorm laundry

Upvotes

So I’m shopping for my dorm stuff, but I’m not sure what the most efficient detergent and laundry options are for the dorm washers..

For context, my washer at home is kind of older and I use powder detergent, fabric softener, and scent beads but I’m worried that it will be more difficult to work with (having to carry it back and forth from my room to the laundry room).

Do you guys recommend liquid detergent or tide pods..? Any tips for using newer washers and dryers?

Friends?

Upvotes

Does anyone want to hang out? I really need to make friends. Have been in Davis a few years and have been unable to make friends, and i’m honestly unsure why. Trying to turn my life around especially since i’ve gone on medical leave and i just don’t want to feel stagnant and sad and stuck at home anymore. It would be nice to have friends to study with, or just reason to be happy at the end of the day.

This year has been really hard for me and honestly this is a cry for help.
