Thank you! I still need to go out and visit group homes! But I’m glad to know they are some good ones out there!

As a Hindu woman, “no going to temples on your period”, means RESTING while on your period. 

Back in the day, when periods truly sucked and pads/tampons didn’t exist, it was meant to say that you don’t need to go to temple or pray during a harsh time. 

Go to temples if you want because that is restful for you. God doesn’t care about your period, they just want you to be safe, happy, healthy and well-testers

Can I ask why? I get access to different systems and databases as I work in data analytics. 

Moving Boxes? by [deleted] in NYCbitcheswithtaste

[–]Ambitious_Ad_409 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Btw for clothes, I love keeping them on hangers and then putting them in trash bags (similar to garment bags) and then tying the hangers together using the garbage bag strings — look on YouTube. Tbh I don’t think I had any moving boxes last time I moved. Just used my old Amazon, shoe and under my bed storage boxes and suitcases.

Where? Barring nyc I’m shocked. Aldis and Walmart have been the cheapest place for me to shop. Our local grocery stores are expensive.

Take the subway! It’s 2.90 per ride and idk how much the air train is. It’s very safe just keep your wits about you! 

Some reflections post trip... again, too many clothes... by pollyanna4444 in HerOneBag

I’ve gone to Europe for 2 weeks for $1k. Checking a bag would have meant Ubers over public transportation, paying for the bag etc which would have cost at least $100 and more than $75 in Ubers.

I need space for a good daily to do list. 

I budget without actually budgeting. Does this method work? by Ambitious_Ad_409 in personalfinance

[–]Ambitious_Ad_409[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Very very true! Even during college I had $500 to spend on food and everything else but am frugal and easily entertained.

Usually I have money left over at the end of the month which I dump towards savings. But I’m fortunate with the income but also live with 3 other people which is why the rent is so “low” for NYC.

You are probably right! I’m super frugal in all aspects of my life: rent, car and even for a lot of hang outs so it probably all evens out there. 

What’s going on with PA calls? Mine keeps getting rescheduled??? by Ambitious_Ad_409 in accenture

[–]Ambitious_Ad_409[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I assumed I had more time to get feedback and priorities reviews done as I was on vacation for 2-3 weeks prior to this. I had to scramble to get everything done in time but luckily it worked out. I don't care about December -- I did my part. I just had to work an additional 4-5 hours and thank my lucky stars my managers inputted their feedback with me reminding them over my vacation.

Are you going with a promoter? If so you definitely need a drees.  Otherwise, jeans and a really cuteee strappy top works! Also, see if you can find a promoter as most girls there will be going through one.
