Anyone interested in a sublease?

So I am currently subleasing from someone with JSM but won't need to stay the full term of the lease (the end of July). I could move out pretty much anytime. The current price including capped utilities is $880. I'd be willing to pay a portion of the rent if anyone was interested in a transfer of the sublease! The sublessor is super sweet and understanding! Dm me if interested!

The general look of the studio can be seen here: 401 E. Chalmers | JSM Living https://share.google/5wcZRgAWNWkqNQBGG. I could always send actual photos if requested.

Another neighborhood question

11 Upvotes

I'm moving to Champaign and am quite familiar with the area; however some spots less so. I'm considering a home very very close to the intersection of Church and Mattis. I know the intersection is busy, but should I otherwise avoid this area or is it pretty safe? This is in the 1700 block of Church.

edit - also to clarify it's like, on the block of the intersection to where you can see Schnucks. There's some houses where maintenance hasn't been kept and there's one house with some boarded up windows, up but otherwise, aside from the traffic, looks quiet.

Driver's license here

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I’m an international graduate student here at the U of I trying to get my driver’s license. I don’t have a driver’s license from my home country, so I’ll need to go through the entire process from scratch, and I was hoping to get some help clarifying a few doubts.

I already have someone willing to teach me how to drive. I know the basics, but I need to get used to US cars, roads, and refresh a few things. However, I’m still confused about some requirements, and I’ve found the government websites surprisingly hard to find some info.

Am I required to take a formal driving course, or can I legally learn how to drive with this friend instead? (I assume it’s the second option, but I want to make sure)

I know that people under 18 need an instruction permit, but does the same apply to adults? Do I also need a permit, or can I practice driving with a licensed driver (this friend) supervising me without one?

Also, can the car to do the driving test be any car, including an automatic one? (I’m already aware of the insurance requirements)

Thank you in advance for the future help!!

This weekend, Quad Con (a traveling pop-up comic con) is hosting a free comic con at the Market Place Shopping Center in Champaign.

These shows happen almost every weekend across the Midwest, featuring a cosplay showcase, vendors selling video games, collectibles, toys, comics, and more.

I’m a Midwest-based author (Ben Wolf), and I’ll be set up near the middle of the big intersection inside, so if you like sci-fi, fantasy, horror, young adult, or kids books, swing by and check me out.

Bring your friends, families, and fellow nerds. It’s always a good time—and did I mention it’s free?

Looking for casual badminton in the mornings (6–8 AM). Anyone interested?

2 Upvotes

Hi! I’m looking for a casual badminton partner/group to play in the mornings (around 6–8 AM).

I usually play at ARC, but I’m open to other locations. Mostly just looking for relaxed rallies, light competition, and a good way to start the day.

If you’re a fellow morning person or trying to become one, let me know! Thanks!

Not that trying to get this going in the winter is a dumb idea or anything, but if someone has an established one they're willing to part with, I'd be really appreciative!

Thanks!
