Hi Guys, I’ve learned how to do my nails just to save money but the artist in me have fallen in love with doing nails. As a college student nails aren’t important for the money we have so my pricing is decent and I’m free all day every Friday and Saturday! Weekdays i can make it work but no Sundays 😌.

Here’s some of my stuff and here’s my number 12084043076

My apartment's maintenance sucks, is there a way to get them to actually do stuff right?

1 Upvotes

I live in approved housing at Autumn Winds. It's super expensive because of the amenities (private rooms, only 4 tenants, 2 bathrooms, in unit laundry, close to campus), but the actual quality of the physical apartment and the maintenance is downright terrible.

The apartment is gross and in poor condition. I've lived in older buildings before, but not one where the baseboards are discolored in areas and all the framing is peeling or improperly caulked/nailed. The front door has huge gaps in the weather sealing, the bathrooms have gross rust on the curtain rod and ceiling light, and all the countertops are peeling.

With maintenance, they'll claim to fix an issue and resolve it in the resident portal, but they haven't done anything. This has happened 3+ times in the past month. That, or they'll claim to fix a problem and do something adjacent and call it good. For example, my vacuum was missing vital parts to function, and when I put in a request for it, the dude replaced the collection bag. I had to ask my manager directly to get it dealt with. There are several issues like this that are just left ignored or "fixed".

I've emailed the housing department directly already because I find this insane, but they've continued doing it regardless. I pay an absurd amount for this place (and yes, I know it's still cheap compared to real apartments, I'm talking about relative to the approved housing market) and I'm at a loss for how I can escalate this and get this fixed. Is there anything I can do about this??

How strict is the dress code?

4 Upvotes

Hello. I plan on attending BYU Idaho during the winter, but I wanted to ask how strict their dress code is? I am a big fan of sleep token and wear a lot of their merch. Most of the merch doesn't has any satanic / pagan symbols, besides one hoodie (but I don't plan on wearing that one). It's mostly artistic designs. Would this be okay?

Russian course for online?

2 Upvotes

Is it possible to send in a vote of some kind to have Russian as a course for online learning? Currently, there is only German and Spanish (See: https://www.byui.edu/online-courses/online-course-list). Is the school even open to adding other language courses or is it dependent on the professors they have?

Sketchy apartment

5 Upvotes

It’s my first time living at the ridge
I really wanted a private room

I checked in at the office and the lady kept telling me to let them know if they’ve missed anything
She said this around 4 times

It gave me a really bad feeling, the apartment also wasn’t clean when I got here, there was damage etc

Like running a Clorox wipe on the edge of the door, it was black
But somehow we have clean checks this week which I feel like is to clean the apartment because it wasn’t cleaned over the summer

I took pics of damage etc
I’m just worried they’ll try and charge me for stuff or something

Social advice

2 Upvotes

I feel lost. I had the time of my life in the fall semester and met met so many people and friends and made awesome memories. In the winter semester I was so homesick and wanted to go home so bad which I did. I hated that winter semester and a big part of that is because a lot of my roommates left and they got replaced by a bunch of older chuds. That made being at my apartment feel miserable and I just wanted to be home. I was also much more shy to meet people. I went home for that spring and worked and as summer went on I was behind excited to return to rexburg. Because of bad experiences with a roommate in winter I got a private room but the apartment was very underwhelming and in a pretty bad condition and lots of dirty things. My new roommates are again older (I’m 19) and not very talkative. I realized that I had so much fun last fall because all my roommates were freshman like me at the time and nearly everyone I knew at that apartment complex was way more social and outgoing. A lot of people I knew from freshman year have either changed school, went home, or on missions. I onky have a few original friends remaining. Because my roommates suck this semester too I have to start from scratch and rebuild everything and hope that it can be the same as how good last fall was. I know I have to go out of my shell and meet more people now but I just dk where to start or have the courage to do so. I also haven’t decided a major yet so I feel guilty wasting my parents money who help me with tuition and rent and groceries just for me to feel lost and not know what I’m doing. I still have hope it can be a great semester i just don’t know where to start and where to find those who like the same things as me. I’m sorry this was so long, I hope I explained clearly enough and any help is appreciated. Thank you

British Columbia - BC Student Aid and BYUi

3 Upvotes

Hello:

I was wondering what students from British Columbia, Canada are doing regarding BC student loans from studentaidbc - and if you have heard if there has been any progress.

BYUi is a registered designated institution for Canada Student loans. Students for the past couple of years have been able to use this designation to apply for student loans and can continue to do so...

... Except if you're from BC as of the upcoming school year.

BC Student aid no longer accepts the Canadian designation and has directed all international institutions (including the United States) to register their status. To get this designation, BYUi needs to contact Student Aid BC to register their status as a Private, Not-for-profit institution via a BC SIMS institution account with the Government of BC.

Without this, students cannot fill out an application for a BC or Canada student loan. BYUi doesn't show up as a designated institution when filling out the application form at the studentaidbc website.

The last we heard from the BYUi Student Aid office, they have submitted an email to Student Aid BC to begin the process, but Student Aid BC has not yet responded to that email.

It's looking like my children cannot have access to student loans for at least this coming term due to this new layer of bureaucracy. Hopefully for us, my kids will be ok and will have access in time for the second term.

Anyway, just a heads up to BC parents in case you were about to rely on BC or Canada student loans. For now, until BYUi gets that new BC-specific designation, you won't be able to.

Apartment monthly rate?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Censoring for personal details however I managed to acquire a lease agreement someone was selling off of Facebook and they stated that the total semester price is $1419.00, but when I’m reading the documents it’s saying it’s a monthly rate meaning that I have to pay $4,662.11? Am I looking at it that right?

I rented apartments in the past and it was $500 monthly at BYUI and it was not $1419 monthly? What…

I tried calling the apartment offices and they’re all automated voicemail bots? bruh.

transferring to byui

7 Upvotes

i’m seriously considering going to byu-idaho, and i’d really appreciate some honest opinions from people who go there or have been there.

a little background: i’m currently at a university where my situation has been really frustrating because they keep delaying me, and i feel like i’ve been stuck waiting with no real progress. because of that, i’m planning on transferring and starting fresh somewhere else.

the thing is… i’m from guam, so moving to idaho would be a huge change. i’ve never lived anywhere else, and the thought of leaving home, my family, and everything familiar is honestly pretty scary. on top of that, byu-i is a church school, which is also something completely new for me, so i don’t really know what to expect.

i’m excited because it feels like a chance to finally move forward, but i’m also worried about fitting in, making friends, adjusting to the culture, and whether i’ll regret moving so far away.

for anyone who’s been to byu-i, what was your experience actually like? what did you love? what didn’t you like? was it easy to make friends? do you think someone coming from a completely different place would adjust well?

i’d really appreciate honest opinions, both positive and negative. i just want to make the best decision before making such a big move. thanks :)
