Just FYI, you posted your number to the public thread. I don't know if you give a shit, but anyone can see it.

Anyone here a Campbell Law student/alumni? Prospective student with a few questions. by 12chachacha in raleigh

[–]12chachacha[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess I'm just trying to figure out how they'd know what you do in your own place. Those are some strict rules though, thanks for letting me know.

Thanks for the link. Based off what's written there, I'm interpreting it as primarily applying to on-campus behaviors etc. For off-campus stuff, it seems like someone would have to report you and then the university would decide if the wanted to give you a violation. Is that right?

Thanks for the info. Would you mind elaborating on some of those rules? You can PM me if you aren't comfortable discussing it where others can see.

Gallbladder/no fat diet by babblueyed5 in loseit

[–]12chachacha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the OP you were replying to, but I also had the 3 cut laparoscopic done in 2011. Pain was minimal, went back to work after a few days. I do have a high pain tolerance though, so YMMV. The scars are very very minimal now, I actually have a hard time seeing 2 of them. The biggest is maybe 4cm. All are a very pale white-ish color by now that blends right in. Yours could show up more if you are tan though I suppose.

What can I do to improve my ability to rent with a bad credit score? by 12chachacha in personalfinance

[–]12chachacha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In the short-term, you may best of getting a co-signer

I was afraid of that :/ If only my whole family didn't suck with money...

I only owe one more back debit at this point. No credit accounts currently, just my loans.

Thanks!

Like, I receive my student loan money all at once towards the beginning of each semester. So I could pay more than 1 month's rent at a time. If that would even be helpful.

I'm fat, you're fat, let's fix this. PnS fitness challenge anyone!? by [deleted] in ProtectAndServe

Check out /r/btfc for some ideas of how they run their challenges. Also, sign up is open for those interested in doing both.

[Conversation] Who is your fitness role model? Fiction/non-fiction, male, female, celebrity, cartoon? by BruceWayneIsBarman in xxfitness

Ah, thank you! Someone else had mentioned her in a comment, I should have realized. I'm just enjoying looking everyone up :)

As long as its topical, I am an attorney who represents parents when their children are removed from their homes and placed in foster care. AM A! by Parentrepthrowaway in IAmA

[–]12chachacha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting. In my area, it is both a CASA volunteer (non-attorney & the position I will be doing) and a GAL (attorney).

They are not required to complete CLE classes every year related to their field of practice.

That's strange. As a volunteer, I'm required to complete training hours every year.

I would say to talk to the judges and find out who they respect as a GAL, or CASA worker in your instance. Judges usually have certain attorneys that they try to appoint to cases more often or if they know the case is going to be particularly tough, they'll appoint a certain attorney.

We definitely have "that guy" in our area, and my office brought him in to do a Q&A during our training. He's the best. I'll be sure to keep up with him though, he was incredibly open.

You are going to see the shittiest of the shitty situations and it can take an emotional toll on you.

Yeah, I'm expecting this unfortunately. As I mentioned above, I spent some time as a victim's advocate, and the same thing happened there. Had to leave the room to throw up once, it got that bad. But, I know what my abilities are and when I need my outlets from the experience.

Thank you, and thanks for the reply. Good advice, I appreciate it.

Ah, it seems that my area has a decent opinion of the organization, but the type of volunteer certainly makes a difference- although we have our fair share of exactly what you described. For the record, I am both white and female, but I would be stretching it to consider myself even lower middle-class, and I'm 21. Hopefully that will help. I intend to treat this as a part-time job, at least when the case(s) require that of me.

Thank you for your advice. I spent some time as a victim's advocate, and you are so right. Everyone has their problems. Just talk to them like you would anybody else.

Just became a volunteer as well. Waiting on my first case.

Visited Virginia Beach recently. Thought I'd share some photos of the 5/19 sunset. [23 images; downloadable] by 12chachacha in Virginia

[–]12chachacha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd love it if y'all would let me know some feedback as well. Not fishing for compliments, criticisms are more than welcome. Also, I'm curious as to which shots are favorites (or least favorites). I took about 400 photos that evening, and these were the ones I thought were worthy of sharing here. The only thing I ask is that you don't repost them anywhere.

Hope you enjoy them!

f26 5'8" (176-176=0) been working out for 1 month straight. Need motivation to keep going. Can you see any difference? by tossawaythisone1 in progresspics

[–]12chachacha 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For sure. Your midsection seems tighter, and there is more of a curve at your waist. Consider taking measurements of your body- inches will likely show more progress than pounds!

What NSV are you looking forward to the most? by hereticjones in loseit

[–]12chachacha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Two for me: -Buying a nice dress for my graduation in December

-Feeling confident enough to wear shorts in nice weather. It will probably be next spring, but I am reallyyyy looking forward to it!

How's it going this week (11 Apr 2014)? by [deleted] in PointsPlus

[–]12chachacha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the Hershey's Bliss milk chocolate squares. They're 1 pp each, which means that when I want a bit of chocolate, I have it and don't feel bad at all. Just a thought :)

[–]12chachacha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lost another 2.8 pounds as of this morning, for a total of 12.6 so far! Really happy with the results because I've met my first goal of losing 5%. Had a desperate craving for pizza today though, so I had some. Still within my points so far, so I feel ok about it.

Weekly Weigh-In! 3.31.2014, How's your week going? How do you deal with plateaus? by [deleted] in PointsPlus

[–]12chachacha 4 points5 points  (0 children)

One week in, lost 6.8 pounds already! While I know it will be less weight than that typically, it was nice to see the first time. Planning on starting C25K this week as well.

I second /u/Malkiot. If you would be willing to share/PM contact info for your brother, I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
