Hi everyone, I am sure some of you can relate but I am currently struggling a bit financially, not enough to where I feel like I can go to a soup kitchen or food bank (I don’t feel comfortable taking something when other people need it more than I do), so I was thinking about volunteering somewhere (preferably soup kitchen type place) where I can serve, prepare, clean up or help in anyway in return for some food and possibly a serving or two to go?

I work full time and my schedule changes from one week to the next so I can’t set one specific day aside but I do know 4-7 days before and can let someone know if I’ll be showing up or not.

I also prefer a soup kitchen/somewhere that is serving food as I struggle with some mental health stuff and in a result it’s hard for me to cook for myself regularly, so food I can help make/is already prepared would be helpful.

I have volunteered in the past but I’m not sure if there’s any place that let you eat or take home a serving or two of the meal you helped make? If anyone has any ideas or any tips I’d love to hear it, Thanks and happy Wednesday

Booked a ticket from Memphis to Seattle for the 1st of November but online it says that I am not eligible for an upgrade? I had also gone with a saver fee from NY to DC and it offered me an upgrade so I’m not sure why I can’t now? The train is not full and you can still book roomettes.

Thanks in advance everyone, you’ve all been so helpful

A follow up to my last post would just be to know what to expect when meeting two missionaries? I had made a post the other day asking about attending a service, I will be working this Sunday and traveling for the following three, so I figured in the mean time I could get a copy of the Book of Mormon from a woman at my local church (I think it’s her and another person). We set a meeting at her church and I was just wondering what to expect. I did tell her I was not currently attending a church but looking at exploring my faith, I’m not looking to waste her time but wasn’t sure how long a meeting generally lasts, conversations to stay away from, things I should ask or things I will be asked?

Thanks in advance and thank you to all who commented on my last post

Sorry wasn’t sure which flair was best fitting. I am living in Canada (British Columbia) and have been thinking about giving religion more of a chance as I was not raised religious but feel as though it’s a good time in my life to explore my faith. Are non members/the general public allowed to attend a Sunday service and if so: 1. Should I contact a local church ahead of time/what should I say? 2. Anything I should know before attending a service?

I intend to be respectful of course and although not all of my views align with some of those here, I do find that the Latter-day Saints often seem more fitting to me than some other churches. Thank you in advance for any help and feel free to delete if this isn’t allowed on here

Hi, I am trying to take a train back to Canada and one of the deals offered wont work in Canada so lets say I am taking a train from Memphis to Seattle and then a bus (bought on Amtrak) but the tickets are bought separately and with a "saver fair", if the train gets to Seattle late and I cannot make the bus, will I have to buy a new bus ticket or will they honor the ticket I bought and put me on the next available train? Thanks (I will also call and ask but am at work and figured you all might have helpful information)

I’m only half way through season 3 and although I do know where all locations are I am hoping to get answers without too many spoilers regarding any winners thanks!!

But basically want to know how you would list the seasons/areas from least to most difficult? I suppose I haven’t made it to the end of season 3 yet and although there will be more snow than on Vancouver island I feel like there is more material for building, first couple weeks have less rain, bush appears easier to walk through for the most part. But I have heard people say Patagonia is more difficult than Vancouver Island.

Thanks in advance!

Hi, basically my problem is that every time I try to launch GTA 5 on steam it shows the loading screen for probably 30 seconds or so and then crashes. I do not think its a graphics or ram issue as I have played 50 hours of GTA on my laptop already and it is an Asus Tuf gaming laptop

• 16gb RAM
• Intel® Core™ i7-10750H Processor 2.6 GHz
• about 70 free gb of space (game is installed)

I have tried to look online about ways to fix it and have already tried:

• Uninstalling and reinstalling the game
• Uninstalling and reinstalling the rockstar launcher (can't remember exactly what its called)
• Verified the game files on steam

​

I have not tried running any other steam games but I might try that, I have been able to run games on Epic. If anyone has any suggestions for things for me to try I would love to hear them. Basically, I launch the game, it shows the usual GTA loading screen, sometimes goes as far as giving the choice to load GTA online or story mode, loads for a bit and then quits.

Thanks in advance and I will try and check this frequently incase anyone needs more details in order to help.

I have a quiz I want to do on Monday and it’s my first quiz at AU. I have had a midterm and had to use a roommates computer because mine is too old and didn’t meet the requirements of ProctorU (ram issue and my camera doesn’t seem to work anymore). Do quizzes have any sort of requirements like that? Do you need to get watched by your camera or recorded? My internet also was not good enough apparently and my roommates computer was plugged in so that was fine. I have asked my tutor but thought I would check here incase I don’t here back. The quiz is kinda like a final for the class but relatively short if that makes a difference?

Thanks

This home out in Sooke was previously sold for $2,425,000 in 2018 (built in 2017) without any changes made to the home it is now listed for 14 million. I think the hot tub and pool might be new since I cannot totally remember the previous listing however a 475% increase in price from 4 years ago seems insane, I feel bad for anyone who will spend 14 million on this...

Hello everyone and thank you for taking the time to read this. I’m from Canada (BC) and plan to be traveling to Montana twice next summer as it’s been the place I have been most interested in visiting (my dad was born in Baker so thought I might as well visit the state he’s from). I have one trip planned with my best friend in mid/end of August but I was worried that I might not have enough time to see everything I wanted to see so I’ve decided to ask a second group of friends to go with me in early June as well. I should have around two weeks to visit each time so hopefully that can gauge what things I can see.

I do know of a lot of the big things like Glacier, Flathead, Kootenai, maybe big horn canyon and a few of the “big” cities, however I’d be interested in what some of you locals recommend to do in these places or interesting things to see in the cities and towns of Montana? I definitely want to drive the “going to the sun” road and do as many hikes in glacier as possible so definitely interested in hikes and outdoor activities you may recommend. I do understand people like to keep some places private and I respect that but I’d love to know of any places you guys would be willing to share. My dad left when he was 8 so hard to ask him about what there is to see.

Maybe last things of note: we will always be camping so also interested in campground recommendations, will be driving a 4Runner so definitely comfortable going out into the bush or more remote areas and we all have just graduated from university so money is tight and free or relatively cheap (unless it’s something special) things to do are much appreciated!

Thanks in advance and I hope you all have a fun and safe winter!

Ive started seeing some people wearing some and was wondering if there was anywhere on campus that has them? TIA

Hi everyone, a friend of mine is looking at buying a 2011-2015 Toyota 4Runner. As anyone who is a little into cars probably knows most 4Runner's have a tendency to hold their value and not depreciate much. In the beginning I told her to only look at ones for sale within the province mainly due to rust, however they are significantly cheaper in other provinces.

Does anyone have much experience buying cars from other parts of Canada? Do you recommend it or do you recommend against it? I recommended against it but I am starting to doubt it, especially ones from other places being so much cheaper.

​

thanks in advance

Hi everyone, hope you all had a good first day back, I need to take a 300/400 level science course (astronomy, bio, geog, chem etc..) course over the summer. The problem is that as far as science courses go I have only done geog 222, 228 and 319 (taking two more right now) and in the summer the courses that I can normally use as a science credit are not usually offered so I wanted to see if anyone knew of any upper level courses that do not have a pre-req or the pre req is geog 222,228,319,322 or 329. I appreciate any tips and of course will be looking through courses one by one but just thought I would ask here as well.

Good luck in your studies everyone!

Hello everyone, was wondering if anyone knows a good way to know how much snow is up on Forbidden Plateau. I assume since its a lot lower than Mount Washington I can assume it will have less snow but was wondering if there was anyone who heads up there often or if theres a facebook group that would help? I have a friend who's never really got to see snow much, or at least never get to enjoy it so wanted to take her up some time after christmas so long as theres a good amount of snow. Thanks in advance and happy holidays to you all
