As far as I have understood, you must have proof of all the funding that you have mentioned on i20. If someone is funding 75% of their education through a scholarship and remaining by loan. Do they still need bank statements, provided no family funding or personal funding is mentioned on i20.

Hello y’all!
I’m planning on going to law school this fall. I graduated undergrad in the spring of 2023. Without giving away too much information about myself, I played a DI sport at a southeastern school. I absolutely love that region of the country and desire to move there after law school. I’ve always known I wanted to go to law school, but because of my rigorous student-athlete lifestyle, I felt that I wasn’t adequately prepared to take the LSAT/go right into law school without putting enough time to research law schools that would be the right fit.
For the past year, I’ve been working full time as a paralegal at a regional powerhouse law firm in Upstate NY law firm (I have family here which is why I moved up here after graduating). I also interned for a couple months under a federal judge. I’ve gained a ton of legal experience between my full time job and fell in love with law even more. I took the February LSAT and scored in the 160s and maintained above a 3.5 GPA in undergrad. I’m still waiting back on a couple schools decisions but these are currently my top choices. I’m also in the process of renegotiating all of my scholarship offers.
In terms of my career aspirations, I’m not someone who necessarily dreams of big law. It would probably be something I’d consider working 2-3 years for the salary alone and then move away from to pursue a more passionate legal job. I currently do a lot of civil rights stuff and love it. As of now, my dream is to move to the DC area or somewhere in the southeast and dabble in politics and/or federal clerkship opportunities. I would also be interested in getting to learn more about entertainment law. I want to utilize law school to narrow in on exactly what type of law I want to pursue, as my current law firm is multi-practice and I’ve loved everything besides tax law and intellectual property.
Syracuse: offered around 75% off tuition. Very familiar with the area and love the campus itself (toured here). Know a lot of current/former students. Surprisingly good connections outside of Upstate NY, places fairly well in DC despite its distance from it.
Buffalo: offered almost a full ride. Would never live in WNY and am aware that even compared to other Upstate NY schools, it has very regionally-based placement. Unfortunate because I have a ton of legal and business connections in WNY.
Richmond: WL. Not really planning on going here but the campus is very nice.
Tennessee-Knoxville: offered 33% off tuition. I’ve been too the campus a handful of times and love it. I know undergrad students that absolutely love their time there. Trying to do more research on specifically the law school experience here, but don’t personally know any current law students or UTK law school alumni.
Still waiting to here back from Florida, Florida State, Georgetown, George Mason, and Vandy. I’m well aware that some of these are reach schools and even if I do get in, scholarship money will most likely be limited. I got rejected from UNC after being on the WL for a while which was my dream school.
I would love to hear any insight/advice regarding my current position. Especially if there is anyone who is connected to any of the schools I listed.

Nakatulog na ako pag-uwi kakaiyak ko after ng session ko with my doctor. 🥹 Ganito ba talaga ang mga empath at saka yung malawak pang intindi. Naiintindihan ko yung mama ko eh, pero at the same time, nandoon pa din yung pain. Pain ng consequences ng actions nila ni Papa kasi parehas sila nag cheat. Kaso mag-50 na siya this year. Bigay lang naman ni Lord yung life na meron tayo. Wala namang help na natatanggap si mama before, pero nakikita ko nagtatry siya ngayon. 🥹 Naiiyak lang ako minsan kasi parang responsibilidad ko na yung sumunod sa akin. Pero isipin mo yung tatay ko, nandoon, wala man lang ambag eh what if hindi kasi siya nang babae ng madami dati. 🤦 Pero hindi na tayo babalik diyan lols kasi we deal with now. Tapos ang weird mag-react ng brain ko pag nagbabanggit yung sumunod sa akin ng gusto niya na mawala or sui thoughts niya. Parang nagfla-flashback lahat ng attempts niya, yung kaluluwa ko na lumilipad kapag ako nagsusugod sa kanya sa hospital at 50/50 siya, yung paulit-ulit na araw-araw viniverbal niya sa akin paano niya gagawin yung mga sui thoughts niya dati hanggang sa nag-set na ako ng boundaries. 🥲 Naiintindihan ko kapatid ko pero yung mental health ko shet pababa talaga pag may nadidinig ako na "gusto ko na mawala" lalo iyan yung iniiwasan ko isipin. Ngayong taon lang ako fully nagdecide to help myself. Umiiyak na ako kanina sa harap ng doctor ko kahit pinipigilan ko talaga most of the time. Ayoko talaga umiiyak sa harap ng mga tao. Nasanay talaga ko mag process mag isa. I think recent na lang ako nagoopen sa mga nakilala ko sa discord. Nabanggit ko kay doc bakit ganon minsan sa bahay, pag may headspace ako, parang sa akin lagi binabato yung kapatid ko. Pati bakit ganon, may mental health din ako, like nakakalimutan ata ng mga tao minsan na inaayos ko din buhay ko pati sarili ko kasi ayoko na idedefine ako ng mga tao na mahina ako kasi may depression ako. Ayoko na maliliitin ako ng mga tao dahil sa naging impact ng traumas sa brain ko at napunta ko sa ganitong situation. Alam ko matalino ko. Hindi porket depressed yung isang tao eh mamaliitin na sila or sasabihan sila ng nababaliw or bobo or mahirap kausap or ang tagal mag respond. Napagod na kasi ako last year ayoko na una ko magiging option mawala pag lahat ng nangyayari pangit. Or ayoko sayangin buhay ko sa mga taong sumira ng buhay ko. Pag nawala ko, magcocontinue pa din life nila. Pero na-communicate ko naman na sa mga tao sa bahay 'tong mga sasabihin ko about them at nag set na ko ng boundaries. Siguro ayoko lang na naaalala ko lahat kaya ata ako iyak ng iyak hanggang sa makain ko yung salmon poke bowl. 😅🤦 Pagkain pala magpapakalma sa akin lols. Parang gusto ko na lang mabura yung bad memories pero hindi naman yon possible diba. Natatabunan lang yan ng good memories. Nakakatuwa din kanina kasi narealize ko after na namaster ko na yung idgaf sa public place kasi umiiyak ako the whole time. Simula lumabas ako ng hospital > umupo ako sa tapat ng Walter Mart kasi may parang comfy na kahoy na pwede upuan tas hagulgol mga 15 minutes doon > tapos pagtawid ko papunta Walter Mart, umiiyak pa din > pigil luha ng onti sa EO tapos binilhan ko sarili ko ng pizza > tapos iyak ulit habang naghihintay ng bus > tas sa bus > tricycle papuntang kainan ng salmon poke bowl. 😂 Dami ko nakasalubong at tumitingin habang umiyak ako pero parang nung time na 'yon, nasa isip ko lang na malabas ko nararamdaman ko lol. Yung mga tao sa public hindi ka naman nila maaalala hahaha makakalimutan din nila na nakita ka nilang umiyak or what. Malas na lang pag navideohan kaya nagmamask ako pag galing akong session ko with my doctor. Umupo na din ako kanina sa tapat ng Waltermart kasi last time may session ako with my doctor and nahirapan ako i-process yung there's no absolute truth ganon din umiyak ako habang naglalakad pero naramdaman ko yung hilo tas muntik na ko mahimatay kaya umupo na lang ako sa Plaza. Naiiyak ako non kasi sabi sa church sa'min dati is to forgive pero galit na galit talaga ko circle of ex friends ko na yon last year. First time ko nang block sa buong buhay ko. Nakakapagod umiyak. Minsan sa dami ng problema sa bahay parang hindi ko din talaga kaya tumakbo sa iisang person lang. Mabigat kasi yung ganyan pag kinuwento ko 'to sa iba for sure mauumay na lang sila kasi hindi naman talaga maiintindihan ng iba lalo na kung hindi naman nila na-experience at hindi malawak pang unawa nila sa mga bagay. Paulit-ulit pa 'tong sa family ko kaya hindi ko 'to inoopen sa iba eh kasi 13 years na 'to. Ako nga napapagod, yung ibang tao pa kaya. Dito ko na lang ilalagay kasi hindi ko na feel na safe ako sa socials ko. Wala na man atang ibang makakaintindi sa'tin sa level na gusto natin intindihin yung sitwasyon or yung sarili natin. Kung meron man edi thank you Lord. Last time na nag labas ako ng sama ng loob sa socials ko nag create ng chaos tas iniisip ng mga tao galit ako sa unang taong minahal ko pero nasasaktan talaga ko the whole time. Iyong emotion na lang na yon yung kakampi ko kasi hindi talaga ko natatrato ng tama. Wala lang. Parang hinihintay din ako magkamali ng mga tao sa socials ko kasi hindi ko talaga iniinvolve sarili ko ever since kasi wala ko headspace sa shit ng iba. Kaya siguro ko napuno last year. Ang unfair ng mundo minsan pero tuloy lang buhay. Focus sa sarili kasi sarili ko lang meron ako at the end of the day. Swerte na lang talaga pag meron nag stay sa atin lalo na ngayon mas inuuna ng iba sarili nila. Anyway, love ko family ko just like paano ko minahal like a family yung bestfriend at ex ko. Minsan nabebeat ko pa din sarili ko pag nakakasakit ako unintentionally. Meron kasi akong decisions na ginusto ko talaga. Yung decisions na unintentional doon ako nag struggle to forgive myself lalo pag love ko yung isang tao. Wala lang. Ewan ko.

Obvious throwaway because I'm still just confused by this situation and some mutual people know me on here.
So my roommate in college had friends over about three weeks ago and it was 6 people half mutual friends and half just her friends and we were kind of collectively getting ready (two were already ready but that's aside) anyway everyone was super friendly until I was doing my makeup and one girl Amy (fake name) was like kinda jokingly "wow that shades kind of dark" and I was like huh? And she went on saying my foundation shade was too dark for me and that it looked like I was trying to make myself darker. I was kind of put off because it was so accusatory out of nowhere and she was standing in my doorway and I don't know if half the ppl heard her over the music but she just stood there waiting for my response and I just kind of shrugged and gestured to the rest of my body, legs, etc that's darker than my face (bc I usually only wear sunscreen on my face also anemia makes my face and eyes paler)
She stepped into my room and pointed at my concealer which is lighter than my skin tone and said "that one's better"
I said "that would make me look sick and this is my summer shade I just haven't gotten this dark yet" bc I have been wearing the same two shades of foundation since I was in middle school and I usually end up mixing them in the winter anyway.
She made this super annoyed face at me and said "it's like you're trying to look like us" gestures at herself and behind her "you don't have to fit in you know"
I think for this it's important to note of the 7 of us I'm the second lightest person, I'm mixed and an orphan and I don't know my ancestry so I don't claim anything other than white on census stuff because everyone in my life family, friends have guessed differently and I don't want to be wrong on federal records or like take advantage of opportunities like scholarships and bipoc internships and stuff when I can't actively claim any one identity. Most of the girls are mixed native/latina/white Amy is mixed I think Latina and white? Or maybe Afro Latina? But I don't know she's in the middle of the spectrum as far as skin tone goes and three girls including my roommate are way darker than her.
So I told her I wasn't trying to be like anyone and I just wanted to look normal not pale and sick and she said "you're like the only white girl here, I know you feel left out but it's okay, you can still go out with us" and I just felt so gutted I didn't say anything like??? What does that even mean why would I be left out? I'm not even the only "white girl" there's another girl who's white but Latina. Not to mention this is the first time I met Amy and didn't see her after that night. I don't want to get between so I haven't told my roommate what happened because I also like don't know if I'm in the wrong and need to ask roommate for Amy's socials to apologize? And get new makeup? Or what?

Feel ko ang desperado na ng tunog ko sa title hahaha. Wala lang. Ang lungkot ko lang talaga these past few months, stressed, at pressured dahil medyo malapit na ang board exam ko.
Pero wala akong malapitan. Wala akong mapagsabihan ng mga nararamdaman ko. Wala akong mapagkwentuhan na makaka-relate sakin. Ramdam kong nagi-isa lang talaga ako haha.
Sa family namin, hindi naman kami nasanay na openly ine-express yung feelings namin and mga problema namin. Madalas kinikimkim lang talaga, or if may rants yung parents ko sa isa't isa, sa akin nila lagi sinasabi. Although paminsan-minsan nangangamusta naman sila kung nakakasagot ako sa review and nagsasabi ng onting advice, never pa ata talaga ako nakapag-open sa mga magulang ko ng deep feelings ko. Dagdag pa na madalas silang stressed sa tindahan namin. Kapatid ko naman may sariling mundo and ganun din, hindi kami sanay na nago-open sa isa't isa.
Yung boyfriend ko naman, hindi ko rin mapag-openan dahil ilang months na siyang depressed. Aminado naman siya nawalan siya ng emotional capacity to talk about things and ramdam ko'ng hirap na hirap din siya i-handle yung mental health issues niya. Kaya ayun, ayoko na rin dumagdag kasi alam ko na hindi ako makakatulong. Pero dahil ang laki ng pinagbago ng dynamics namin, madalas na nahihirapan pa rin ako mag-adjust sa situation namin. Nasanay kasi ako na very open kami sa isa't isa pero ngayon madalas nang emotionally distant siya sakin. Gustong-gusto ko minsan mag-open sa kanya pero nagi-guilty ako kaya di ko na tinutuloy.
May friends naman ako pero may feelings kasi ako na nale-left out ako. Nung college ako, pare-pareho silang magkakasama sa isang univ at ako lang yung nahiwalay. Ramdam kong mas strong yung bond nila sa isa't isa pero hindi ko naman sila masisisi dahil sila-sila ang magkakalapit nun. Ngayon, from 7 people ay naging 4 people na lang kami sa circle namin dahil nagkaron ng issues sa tatlo. Pero kahit ganun, feeling ko saling-ketket pa rin ako. Mas lumala pa to nung February -- tinawagan nila ako na magkakasama sila dorm nung isa naming friend dahil nagbonding pala sila. Hindi ko ito alam dahil wala namang chat sa gc namin.
Medyo napapagod lang ako and makirot sa puso. Gantong-ganto rin yung situation ko nung high school ako na literal na wala akong makasama ... parang flashback lang. Hahaha. Ngayon sa sobrang desperada ko sa comfort or may makasama, kinuha ko sa cabinet yung childhood stuffed toy ko at siya na lang kinakausap at tinatabi-tabi ko sa sarili ko hahahaha.
Yun lang. Ang haba na pala hehe sorry na. If ever mabasa niyo to, kamustahin niyo na lang din mga taong importante sa inyo hehe. Baka nakakaramdam din sila nito and napakabigat niya sa pakiramdam. Ako siguro, ako na lang din muna kakamusta sa sarili ko.

This is just a whole rant/sob story about what I’ve been feeling as of recent.
I’ve been crying about yesterday’s U2 Chemistry exam, and today’s Pure 2 assessment for the entire day.
They were horrible. I can’t begin to describe the shock I am in. I've been holding in so much sh*t for so long, but these exams have left me unable to hold it in anymore.
I have done every single past paper, from the Sample Paper to the Jan 2024 papers. I have studied really, really well. I have made sure to study so hard to a point I that there was nothing left I could do. I literally don’t know what else I could have done to prevent this from happening.
I was always ready to sacrifice everything for my grades and my future. For these A-Levels, I have ruined my health, my happiness, my social life, wasted my youth, but for what?
I get around 4 hours of sleep every night. I’m always too stressed to have an appetite to eat. I feel tense and anxious almost all of the time. I am always tired and keep getting body aches for no reason. I have no time to pursue the things I love anymore. I can count the number of times I have gone out with friends in the past 4 years on a single hand. I see all these American teens online having fun and going out every other day. I can’t even remember the last time I left the house to do something enjoyable.
Yeah, I know it sounds like I’m overreacting, and it’s just some ‘exams’, but my whole future is literally dependent on this. Regardless of all the effort and hard work I’ve put in, I f-ed up these exams.
My biggest dream has always been to get into a prestigious university on a scholarship to study medicine. But I can say goodbye to that now.
I grinded so hard in my IGCSEs to do well and I did. I got A*s for every subject and I guess that gave me false hopes that I could ace my A-Levels. Having sat these two exams, I feel so doomed. I know I performed horribley on them.
I feel nothing but disappointment, hopelessness, and fear right now. I have disappointed myself by ruining my chances of making my dream come true.
It's even worse when you feel that the others around you, who have high expectations, are also disappointed. My chemistry teacher was saying how she knew I would do well because of how hard I've worked, then when I told her about how the exam was, I saw how her face just dropped. Everyone was telling her it was terrible, and I feel like she was on the verge of crying.
Then today, before going into the math exam, my math teacher saw me trying to breathe while I was very nervous, and he said that 'it's going to be fine'. I literally told him, 'I don't think it will be', and he just tried to be optimistic about it. After the exam, I knew he'd come to ask how we did, so I tried to hide from the shame, but he found my friend and I. I was crying before, but while he was trying to make us feel better the tears were just pouring down my face.
I feel like the biggest failure ever. During the math exam, my heart started to beat so fast as I realized time was running out and I still had so many questions I was stuck on to complete. That's exactly when the 'it's over - my future is ruined' thoughts came to my head. I just kept thinking 'forget about going to a big university, the only place I can go to now in my home country'. I couldn't even hold back my tears at school. I just started crying in front of everyone like that.
The biggest shock to all of this is that my parents weren't even angry with me; they were almost sympathetic. For reference, my parents are very strict when it comes to academics, so I was expecting them to blow up on me when I told them how it went. They didn't though. They kept telling me it was okay, and that I should focus on my next exam. Not gonna lie, this probably felt worse than having them shout at me. While they didn't say anything explicitly about how they feel, I can feel that they're miserable, and it's all my fault.
I feel so guilty. Is this what my parents immigrated for? My parents have endured so much racism, so many financial struggles, and just a whole lot of sh*t for a long, long time to make sure I can get a good education and have a good future. It feels like I wasted almost 2 decades of struggle in a foreign country.
Imagine all those relatives back home who are expecting me to become a doctor to realize I messed up this bad. Then there is the other side of the family who have criticized my parents since the day I was born for wasting all that time just for education. These same people are the ones who kept trying to convince my parents to try to have another child, hoping for a boy, because 'what is a girl going to do for you when you're old and tired?' I was dead-set on proving them wrong, and honoring my parents' hard work my succeeding and giving them the best life I could afford. I wanted to be the daughter who could make her parents live a life of comfort and peace, better than any son ever could. Now what? It's not happening.
I won't get into a top university, let alone get a scholarship. I won't study medicine as I've dreamed of. I won't become a doctor. I won't retire my parents and let them enjoy the rest of lives without a care in the world if we had enough money to pay rent. I won't be able to do anything I dreamt of.
I've always been insecure. At one point in time though, I made peace with it and said that if I can't be pretty or charismatic, at least I could be smart. It's been the one thing I knew I could count on. But now I feel so f-ing stupid. Like what am I useful for anymore? If that was the one thing I could do right, but now it's gone, what even is my use in life anymore? I used to cry about being ugly, but now I'm dumb too.
Since Year 9, I have been going through a really rough time mentally. I went through a period of time when I was bullied really bad, then another where we were flat broke, then another time when my dad lost his job, then another when my aunt was diagnosed with breast cancer, then half a year of my parents thinking of divorce, then dealing with the passing of 3 relatives. When does it stop being bad? I used to feed myself these corny lies of 'it's gonna get better' but it doesn't. And this exam period just proved me right.
I wanna give up now. I don't wanna sit anymore exams, and I'm just a third into it. In fact, I don't even wanna live anymore. I know it sounds dramatic to say this over an exam, but I've been holding in this entire rant for the longest time ever, and these exams just brought it out. I've attempted it twice already, but never succeeded.
Since I have no future anyways, I might as well not keep living. I swear to God, that if it weren't for my fear of going to hell, I would try to do it again. I won't though, until we see how the U2 Biology exam goes. But I don't have any hope for it to be any better.
I'm sorry for everyone who feels as though their future is ruined because of these exams, although they studied as hard as they could. May God reward us for our effort.

I don’t feel like myself anymore.
This second sem as a freshie, compared to the first, mas lighter workload ko ngayon. Currently nagreretake ako ng math course. One of the other major subjects I am taking are My bio lab & lec which, well, kala ko, mapapanis ko. Ever since talaga my elementary days to HS days, biology was something I considered as my forte, lalo na dream ko magpursue ng med one day.
So with the start ng second sem, I was excited, with bio being there (& my plans to shift to this course), and mej nalax aq konti with math, knowing na, Ive been through this before, I could not possibly fail this again.
Fast forward to present day me, I am on the verge of failing bio & math (again:(). At first it was ONLY 1 failed exam for both, then next thing ik, wala pa akong napapasa na exam, kahit isa. AND I am just so frustrated, sad, dissapointed, angry, & tired.
What am I doing wrong? Nag-aaral naman ako super hard, I am pushing myself to heights I never thought I could even reach, I Fucked up my sleep schedule para lang sa studies ko. Yet, despite ALL this, I am ending up as a failure……
What. In. The. Actual. Fuck Universe.
With all these dissapointing results, there are days wherein, di ako makatayo, nakahiga lang or nakatulala aq from my bed. Nawawalan ako ng ganang kumain. Fuck, I am not even aiming for 1s or 2s, amp kahit tres lang, kahit pang removals, im ok, I just want to pass. I want to be able to feel na my hardwork was worth it. The sleepless nights and my deteriorating health, I wanna feel like kahit papaano, nakapagyield ako ng passing marks in the end.
As for my family, honestly, they are not even that strict, kahit 3, masayang masaya sila. But failing & retaking the subject wholly Is not an option again. After failing math & telling them that I need to retake it, grabe dissapointment sa mga mata nila. They told me stuff bout how yeah, obviously ako very dissapointed cause I was the one working my ass off this only to end up retaking the subject, but mas sila daw ang nadidisappoint(?) like iba daw as a parent yung dissapointment, lalo na carrying the fact na ur child failed overall a subject in school. Hindi daw normal yung pag fail ng isang subject sa college. Siguro I understand (or try to) where they are coming from, but idk, parang a bit unfair lang for me yung thought na, mas sila daw ang nadidisappoint?? Mas sila daw ang may burden na ito?? Like as much as I wanted to scream or tell them na “No, you have no right to tell me na mas mabigat toh for you, na the burden Is lighter on my end, NO!”, I cant. At the end of the day, they are my parents. Anyways yun, idk if maaaccept pa ba nila kung niretake ko tong math for the 2nd time, as they said, and I quote, “this Is the first & last time you are going to let this happen. hindi ito normal.”
So ayun, with all that, I am even questioning myself if I am really deserving of UP. If I am good enough to be a doctor one day, if I am even strong enough to endure it.
Everyday nalang, I feel this darkness looming. Subtle siya sa mornings, but very strong niya sa gabi. I tried to fight it before, the monster of my anxieties & doubt, but lately, I just let it. I let it consume me, I let it beat me up to shit. I am starting to get tired of fighting. Nakakapagod ipaglaban ang isang bagay na, sa huli, ididisappoint ka lang.
Idk what to do anymore tbh.
So yun, thank u for giving a bit of ur time reading this. Di ko man kayu nakikita or kilala, but I am very grateful & appreciative of you:)

This is my first time posting here, so pls excuse me if I make some mistakes. I would like to know your opinions on something I'm facing.
I'm a girl, turning 25, without a bachelor's degree, and currently working at a local non-governmental organization for three years now. As I'm getting older, I feel like the time to make some changes has arrived so I applied for a university outside my country.
Yesterday, I got accepted with International Development specialization. I've always wanted to study abroad and I'm happy that I got accepted. However, the school fees is really high (for my family) and I can't afford it. I'm meeting a donor tomorrow to get support for the fees. and I can't study if I don't get full support. I'm not eligible (as I'm above 22) to apply scholarship as well (most undergraduate scholarships have age limitations). So the donor is my only hope.
This evening, my boss told me about an opportunity to go to another country, live in a kindergarten and study their management and curriculum. The accommodation will be covered and the allowance and other fees will be provided by boss. I'll have to study for 1 year and come back to give teachers' trainings which would become a nationwide activity. He emphasized this plan is not sure yet and he would try his best to make this work.
Both fields are what I can do well and what I'm interested in. I've studied some certificate courses in Social Studies as well and received trainings on Teachers' Capacity Building.
I don't know what to do or choose. What should I do?

Since that's the theme of today apparently.
I have COVID today and I'm living in the back of my van. Currently under the influence of 1,000 mg acetaminophen and 8 mg ondancetron for nausea. 102 fever but am keeping it down.
When I moved out of my house last year in South Knoxville, My landlord jacked my rent up by $250 for the next tenant. $250 bucks over a single year, and that's after everybody started realizing it was too expensive
That brings the average house rental price in that zone to about $1800 bucks a month.
I knew shit was sitting the fan in 2021 and even wrote a post on it when I had to bounce off to Mexico because it's too expensive to live in Knoxville.
And yet here I am again. Last year the technology sector decided to shed about 20% of the workforce. And you better believe we haven't made it back either.
Man I am so tired of being fucked over every single day of my life. All I've ever done is put a good foot forward every fucking day. I went and got my degree with a full scholarship, went off to med school, and did everything I could to do great. In return my family fucking abandoned me.
What can I do?
I mean I have tried everything. I've done it all by the book. I don't do drugs, I don't drink, and I try to stay busy and active.
And yet when I'm finding I'm the only person in my company that doesn't drink during a company get together, and then simultaneously find myself PIP'ed not once but twice in the same exact situation - to me it just raises a hell of a lot of questions about where our country is going.
That gap between the rich and poor is fucking real, man.
And I'll tell you straight up it didn't have a fucking thing to do with my education as to whether or not I was going to make it in the world.
You know what it came down to?
I just needed to agree to be just as slimy as those fuckers were.
And God help me if I ever have to just to stay alive.

Good thing: I passed UP Los Banos for BS Bio. 2 Bad things: My fam can't afford for me to go to UPLB and I'm a dumbass that failed to register and take DOST-SEI scholarship that would've increased my chances of going to LB-- and by also doing sidejobs.
So I'm left with two options: I either go to MSU-IIT and take BS Microbiology or maybe transfer my slot to UPMin and take BS Biology.
For Context: I'm a dood that lives in Iligan City. In all things financially practical, my ass should just be going to MSU-IIT. "But did I really just review and take UPCAT for UP for nothing?" is an infuriating question that keeps popping in my mind every single time that I reminisce about the fact that I'm 95% likely going to IIT. Now, I don't really have anything against IIT. In fact, my old man who's a professor highly suggests that I just go to IIT since, according to him, the quality of education compared to LB is really just about the same.
I interviewed 4 alumnis from our school who are now currently studying in LB regarding the costs they have to pay every month while in UP. The general estimate is that they use up around P8-10k per month, maybe sometimes more, which includes their rent, food, and all that.
My family isn't rich or poor; we're middle class. I live with my grandma in Iligan, while my old man, my only parent, lives in Bukidnon along with our stepfamily. He works to feed my stepfamily over there while also building a house. He actually loaned quite a lot of money from the bank for their house which is still not completed. He currently can't support me due to his loans.
I want the take my opportunity to UP so I tried to find ways to support myself and not bother them while I go to UP. I don't think UPLB is possible even if I take jobs so that's out of the table, but I actually found out that you can transfer your slot to UPMin from my friend who passed UPLB but was DPWAS. He showed me a Google Form sent by the UPadmissions and then, to my surprise, BS Bio was available. I talked to a relative who once did sidejobs while studying in IIT that maybe I could do sidejobs to support myself in UPMin. We talked a bit about jobs and what sites to go to, and she encouraged me to go to UPMin. My thought process with the costs for UPMin is that it should be much lower compared to LB since it's not Manila area.
I introduced the idea of going to UPMin to my old man but he slanders UPMin and calls it a joke compared to IIT, saying that he's never heard anything from that campus, and he's never heard or seen anyone getting hired as a graduate from there? (what). He also states that IIT is a CoE, College of Excellence, in Biology while UPMin is just a CoD, College of Development.
I want to go to UPMin since it's UP and also because I'd also be with my doods but is it wise to go there or am I just very stupid?

Sa Reddit ko lang masasabi to ever. Minolest ako ng Dad ko when I was 12. Several times. Buti I started locking doors kaya hindi na umabot sa rape. Siya din reason na expose ako sa porn maaga dahil nanonood siya ng porn sa home office tapos hinahayaan lang kami ng Kuya ko maglakad-lakad sa likod, he knows we can see. He’s a fucked up man.
I’m 27 now, and nakapag process na somewhat nito. Pero bakit ang sakit parin and grabe yung shame and diring-diri parin ako sa sarili ko? It doesnt help also na he was never held accountable for it and yung mom ko refuses to acknowledge it kasi sabi niya “I asked him and he doesn’t remember. Maybe you were dreaming daw.”
Those words still haunt me. Why the fuxk would I dream about my father like that? Curse my parents. Hanggang ngayon pabigat parin kayo lalo na may anak at magandang trabaho ako. Pabigat kayo. I wish I can stop contact completely. Feeling ko kasi mawawala lang to completely ang galit ko pag mawala na sila sa mundong ito.
Ang lala kasi kailangan ko din i-unlearn ang mga type of men ko. It’s always older men. Hindi ako na-aattract ng mga lalaki na hindi mukhang daddy. Ang hirap pero kakayanin ko ito para sa daughter ko. Hindi ko lang talaga matanggal totally sa systema ko ang galit ko sa parents ko lalo na hush hush lang lahat, hindi pa ako sumasabog or cinonfront sila. It’s an open secret sa family and mas painful kasi they never supported me, ako mismo nagpapa therapy sa sarili ko.
Dito ko lang ito ma-s-share so thanks for this sub. Mamamatay ako na meron nakakaalam nito and OK na ako diyan. Im not depressed naman. Im actually thriving career-wise pero when it comes to intimacy, dun ako nattrigger kasi sa daddy type ako attracted. Yung peace siguro ma-achieve ko pag ma deds na parents ko.

One of the biggest challenges in Zen scholarship is connecting the dots between koans, which are historical records in the form of transcripts of real people having real conversations. Where religions and philosophies tend to produce sermons and book long arguments, Zen Masters mostly just answered questions. This leaves the audience to piece together a coherent whole from these koan interviews.

Zhaozhou's Lifestyle

Easily the most beloved Zen Master in human history, Zhaozhou was also famous for his very short answers, often in the form of entendres, often using quotes. Here are two quotes that independently are fine, but together cause some problems:

1. A monk asked, "During the twenty-four hours, how is mind put to use?" The master said, "You are used by the twenty-four hours; I use the twenty-four hours. Which of these 'times' are you talking about?"
   
   • Time spent in the movie theater is not the same as time spent in court pleading innocent to felony charges; those are lifestyle choices.
2. A monk asked, "What is your intention?" The Master said, "There is no method to it."
   
   • "No method" is certainly a lifestyle.

What's the big picture?

Zhaozhou argues that his "using the 24 hours" lifestyle does not depend on methods, at least when you put the Cases side-by-side. Whatever conclusion we draw from this we can of course test, by putting these Cases side-by-side with other Cases from Zhaozhou, or even other Masters.
But what is the result?
Zhaozhou once remarked that the Family Custom in Zen was "having nothing inside, seeking for nothing outside" which strikes me as more of a summary of previous teachings than a teaching. Does that betray a "having" or a "method"?

You make the rules

What's interesting to me is whether people would be willing to embrace this "use the 24 hours" AT THE SAME TIME as "having no method". It seems like these two statements represent opposite poles in modern pop culture, with people either working hard at life or people not having a strategy for anything from paying the bills to education to creative contribution to society.

Welcome! ewk comment: What does "no method" look like though when you are so deliberately engaged in everything you do?

Hello everyone! I don't use reddit ever, so my apologies if this is formatted wrong or weird for this site. Anyways, this year I turned 20 years old. And life has been extremely hard on me. In high school I got exceptionally good grades and did plenty of college courses. But during junior and senior year my mental health tanked for various outside reasons and I never really climbed out of a hole I dug myself back then. It got so bad that I was admitted to a ward for suicidality. It's something that I realize I will always have to deal with, and lack of motivation is a killer.
Afterwards, though, I really wanted to give it all one more shot. I applied for my dream college out of state and actually got in! I even got some grants and scholarship money, etc. Obviously it was expensive, but with the "discounts" and such it seemed way more in line to what you would expect for something even in state. My mother however disagreed, she has always been a pretty neglectful person in my life (thankfully I have other family to live with) and permanently burned a bridge with me when she refused to cosign on a loan. I was absolutely devastated. And it plummeted me back into a the hole I was in for awhile.
In summary what I'm asking is: would there be any possibility that I could reasonably get into a college without a cosigner with no credit at my age? And how would I be able to do so if it's even possible. I know this is more of financial or college specific question, but any advice on this topic would be helpful. I've researched this specific question before a bunch, but I'm always left confused and overwhelmed.
I'm sure it's near impossible, as I really have no money and definitely no credit at the moment. And I'm unsure if I can even work right now. But I absolutely love paleontology, animals (extinct animals especially) really interest me. And I aspire to work in that field one day, and get a BA in something like Geology even if, again, its probably impossible.
Thank you for anyone that read this! And I'm very sorry if anything I'm saying is stupid and dumb, just figured I'd ask here once.

A friend of mines daughter committed to a division one college for her sport her junior year. She was promised scholarship dependant on whether the player she would “replace” took her 5th year. The family has text message exchanges between the coach and their daughter saying clearly she would receive funds under thoes circumstances. Knowing this she committed to the school, she took that risk. The player she was in line to replace did not take that 5th year therefore the money should have been allocated to her. The coach has not been clear or communicative and isn’t not respective to follow through with her end of the agreement. Is this allowed? It’s sounds very strange to me as I have had all of my children go through the recruitment process.

I just wanted some insight sa nangyari sakin, me (m20) and my ex is (f21). This Happened like a months ago when my ex suddenly message me out of the blue na she wanted to invited me sa family celebration nila. Take note before this happened break na kami for almost 1 year, add mo pa na we dont have any connections in any socmed kaya magugulat ka na nag message sya suddenly. Going back sa invitation ang pinaka intention nya raw sa pag invite sakin is nung tinanong sya ng father nya kung may naiisip syang iinvite at ako daw una nyang naisip, inadd nya pa na dati nya pa daw ako gusto ipakilala sa family nya but we didn't have a chance during our relationship and I get it naman, and the last thing she mention is for the closure na rin daw and i get it too because during those 1 year post break up namin we have some confusing interaction with each other.
Pumunta ako sakanila medyo distance lugar nila and need ko pa bumyahe, wala naman problem sakin dahil gala ako plus sasagotin nya naman daw transpo ko pabalik if ever so why not. Then nung nakarating na ko after almost 3 hours na byahe sakanila, Pagkadating ko don sa nirent nilang place, maya maya pagkaupo ko sa sofa mother nya agad bumungad sakin, sabi ng ex ko gusto daw ako kausapin ng mother nya and this is my first time meeting her mother, napaisip ako sa sarili ko parang we are not in the right set up for this, pero kinausap ko pa din and we did get along, we talked about our views, interest, and different things and I think her mother liked me. Fast Forward sa family party nila after the dinner, when I was alone sa pool tinawag ako ng ex ko para umakyat upstairs, she introduced me sa ate nya which I know her naman and we have few interaction sa socmed and nagbibiro kung namimiss ko which I didn't answer. After sometime nung bumaba downstairs ate nya and her friend, kami nalang ng ex ko sa room pati pinsan nya and we did play online games na nilalaro namin nung kami pa. After namin maglaro both of them did talk, honestly it was casual not until napunta yon sa usapan regarding their status and recent kausap and wala naman problem sakin as long as wala ako don cause it's frickin awkward, like di ba sila nakakaramdam na I'm there like ex ako, I had to leave the room na awkwardan ako sobra, nung asa labas ako I blend in sa mga friend ng ate nya and played billiards with them, sumunod sakin ex ko sinabi nya kung gusto ko daw pumasok sa room pasok lang daw ako, and sabi ko later nalang since fresh pa yung nangyari earlier. Fast forward again nagsibabaan na mga friend ng ate nya and her cousin mag siswimming sila, don na ko pumasok sa room, bali kami nalang dalawa ng ex ko and this time we did talk regarding our relationship and our unsettled issue in the past, di ko na imemention lahat but ang pinaka main thing lang don na tinanong ko ay regardless ano intention nya kung closure ba talaga or she has other plans pa about samin and she did say wala, tinanong ko din intention nya ano ba talaga gusto nya kase ang unusual ng invitation for an ex sagot nya, ako lang daw talaga pumasok sa isip nya. Then after ng usapan namin I did agree with it sabi ko maybe it was really a closure since I did ask her multiple times just to confirm and akala ko it was the climax eh pero hindi pa pala.
After nung usapan namin sakto tapos na din swimming nung family and friend nya, bumaba na din kaming dalawa dahil mag iinuman na daw. During nung inuman naikot yung baso and we just talked casually naman and asking some question regarding sa ginagawa na namin pero habamg tumatagal I think nagiging clingy na sya towards sakin? Like pag pupunta sya restroom instead na cousin nya kasama nya, ako na tinatawag nya. Everytime na may pupuntahan sya sa loob ng place gusto nya ako yung kasama, like eto pa nung ichacharge nya phone nya upstairs sa room nagpapasama sya sakin and sinamahan ko naman , after non lumabas na sya and humiga sya sa sofa outside ng room and sinabi nya sakin na bantayan ko muna daw sya iidlap lang daw and bintayan ko naman at maya maya umakyat mother nya and sinabihan sya na nagiging alagain daw sya kaya dapat wag sya masyado maglalasing, sagot naman ng ex ko sa mother nya andon naman daw ako kaya okay lamg daw at ang unfair ko di raw ako masyado nagiinom, dinefend naman ako ng mother nya na wala daw mag aalaga sa kanya if susundan ko ginagawa nya (I was shocked di rin naisip ng ex ko na di ako taga sakanila kaya I have to control my liquor) bumaba na kami after ng convo nila. Nung asa baba na kami nagpahinga din yung mga friends nila and later cinontinue na ang inuman tas mga 3am nang madaling araw natapos na ang inuman and asa living room nag kakantahan yung mga friends, tas yung ex ko suddenly invited me na lumabas outside sa gate ng resort and sinamahan ko naman and nakita nya na madilim kaya bumalik nalang kami. Then later sabi nya sakin matutulog na daw sya and samahan ko daw sya upstairs sa room and sinamahan ko sya and nung asa hagdan na kami habang paakyat kami hinahawakan nya kamay ko and binitawan nya lang nung asa pinto na. After nito bumaba na ko, humiga ako sa sofa malayo sa living room and the stair kung asaan mga friends nila and it was a little bit dark and medyo isolated ako from the rest, makalipas mga 10 min kita ko ex ko bumaba and akala ko pupunta syang restroom or sa friends nila since magkakalapit lang, and nagulat ako sakin sya pumunta and biglang humiga sakin na shock ako and may tama na kaya hinayaan ko nalang, we stayed like that for a long time during those time nagiging aggressive sya like she kissed my neck a lot and smelled me, humihigpit pa nga yakap nya. Tas after non pinaayos ko na sya kase nakapatong sya sakin pinaupo ko na and nung nakaupo na kami bigla nya ko hinila pahiga sa dibdib nya tas bumangon ako, tinignan ko yung face nya nakangiti sya honestly asa border na ko ng temptation like lahat ng action nya anyone would do something to her pero napigilan ko Sarili ko, naisip ko kase yung usapan namin before the inuman na wala nga sya plan kaya napigilan ko pa. Kaya up until now naguguluhan talaga ako what is her intention dahil di nag tutugma action nya sa sinasabi nya. I thought it was just a closure pero nagulat ako sa ibang nangyari kaya hangang ngayun na ququestion ko pa. It's not like di kami nag usap pero I didn't buy her reasoning, she said nadala lang daw sya and ginagawa nya din sa iba but di lang ako yung lalake don may iba pa kami kasama, plus bat pa sya sakin pupunta nung hinatid ki na sya na super layo ko from everyone, pede sya pumunta sa mga friend nila na mas accessible, nakakapagtaka ano gusto ng ex ko.

I'm an Ics student currently giving boards for 1st year and have been doing research on unis. My original plan was to go abroad for bs on a fully funded scholarship but cant really find much info on it and wtv info i do find it just points me to doing bs in pakistan and going for ms abroad.
Now that the context is out of the way, Im a fairly good student and got 86 percent in matric bc of being lazy but currently im working towards getting 90+ in first year and then giving NET. I read a lot of ppl being worried abt not getting into nust or the merit being too high so just wanted to ask how difficult is getting into nust for cs?
Other than that i dont come from a well off family and the fees is wayy too high for our budget, I've read abt nusts need based scholarship but dk much details abt it. Can I get a complete waiver on my tuition fee if i can prove the need?

I am a domestic high school graduate who has already taken the college entrance examination (Gaokao), majoring in the sciences, with a keen interest in computer science and mathematics. I'm the first generation of university students in my family, and we are not financially affluent. I don't have a green card, and I'm also Deaf and a member of the LGBTQ+ community.
During my time in high school, I maintained an average score of 95. In language proficiency exams, I scored 71 on the TOEFL, with sub-scores of 28 in reading, 22 in writing, 15 in listening, and 6 in speaking (I couldn't exempt from the speaking and listening exams, but I will explain this situation during the application process). I plan to take the SAT exam in June and a special TOEFL exam in August.
Regarding my major in computer science and mathematics, I'm considering switching to a different field such as linguistics, education, or psychology.
Honors:

• Excellent Award in the National Writing Competition (30 out of 5000 participants)
• Third Prize in the Jiangsu Province Disability Programming Competition (3 out of 800 participants)
• Second Prize in the City High School Mathematics Competition (2 out of 480 participants)
• School Scholarship Recipient (1 out of 50)
• Third Prize in the 10th City "Chinese Dream" High School Talent Competition (3 out of 1900 participants)

List of Activities:

1. Developer of a sign language translation app (with over 1 million users)
2. Project leader (designing assistive technologies for the blind and Deaf using Python and C++)
3. Organizer of Pride Parade (established the DEAF Rainbow Club)
4. Founder of a studio
5. Theater director (collaborating with United Deaf & Hearing Artists to promote inclusive narratives in multilingual collaborative theaters)
6. Assistant at a family farm
7. Family caregiver
8. Chief designer
9. Math tutor
10. Deaf sign language dance troupe I also wanna hear your thoughts on that. Thank you so much for reading, and I'm happy to pm you my profile in case you wanna assist. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide and look forward to hearing from you
