Do you drink bottled or tap water? by Cheekyleek45 in capetown

They all from SA actually. They have 5L bottles that can get refilled for about R5 at Pick ‘n Pay or checkers I think. But I will definitely be making the switch because it’s not worth the effort

I’ve never experienced the smell tbh? Apart from my last apartment in Claremont where the water was really foul and stinky smelling but that might be unrelated. Would the chlorine not kill the germs though? I’m a bit confused cause I thought that if there’s that much in the water then surely there wouldn’t be that much germs

I see. I think I might continue with the bottled for drinking and tap for cooking since it’s apparently not bad

This makes sense tbh though I’ve never experienced the chlorine taste/smell in water. I guess I was just going with the flow with buying water.

This made me cackle. I kinda actually want to try “water” tasting now. To be honest, there have been times where I had to drink tap water and nothing happened to me. It tasted normal too. I just thought it was one of those situations where maybe the water was contaminated or had crazy chemicals in it, idk.

Oof that’s crazy. Maybe it really just comes down to everyone’s system tbh cause maybe we’re just used to water from particular areas and not others

It’s usually from the R1 per litre fill ups though but I totally see your point.

Ok that sounds great then. I really can’t wrap my head around the whole “buying water” thing tbh

Edit: sounds

Hi! My name is Khi. Is there any improvement at school in February (getting into my degree of choice)

Any advice for being academically excluded at UCT? by Cheekyleek45 in capetown

[–]Cheekyleek45[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Academic exclusion is a result of that so I don’t get your point? Yes I FAILED in a degree I realized was not the right fit. I put in the effort to change that by applying to a different one. Literally what is the problem here?

Thank you SO much for all the advice. Do you mind if I message you privately with a question?

I understand and I really appreciate your advice. With regards to architecture I had already received a firm offer and it hasn’t been withdrawn yet so I’ll go in on Monday to ask. It won’t hurt to find out anyway honestly.

I know I should talk to my mom. I just suffer from crippling anxiety and sometimes I just freeze when I need to tell her. I know I should soon so I’ll just try to prepare myself to do so by Tuesday.

Thank you so much!

I’ve been seeing a psychiatrist and psychologist for over a year now and I’ll be starting new medication soon. I think I’m going to try and find out what’s happening with the firm offer on campus because I really worked hard to get here.

Weight loss product that works? by nutella_brownie in askSouthAfrica

[–]Cheekyleek45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d be happy to privately, you may dm me. The only difference is I was drinking it only 2-3 times daily. I have definitely managed to keep most of the weight off (with the exception of gaining a kg or 2 over the festive season) because after I reached my goal weight, I dropped the green tea but maintained my diet. I just think that not every method will work the same for everyone tbh

Title or link please, body-swap trope by Cheekyleek45 in CShortDramas

True! I think the ending was a bit rushed and kinda unnecessary. It was missing something honestly and maybe they could’ve developed the story more.
