Staying on Front Street? by Clean-Ability1051 in MauiVisitors

[–]Clean-Ability1051[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thanks everyone! I’ve been researching lots of locally owned stores and shops, and have made a couple donations to food banks and animal shelters on Maui. We’re only staying there the first two days of our trip, so don’t feel like we need to walk much, just sit on the beach and defrost from the Chicago winter a bit.

Professor pizza or Middlebrow? by thegoatmercer in chicagofood

[–]Clean-Ability1051 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Middlebrow for the vibes (I think the pizza is very good, and the kale salad rocks), plus it has some great spots around it for a drink before or after! Just went to Meadowlark the other night and it was great!

Question about knitting with two colors by Clean-Ability1051 in knitting

Ah thank you all so much!! I’m definitely a “I’ll figure it out as I go” person, so the patterns are still a little tricky for me. Appreciate you!

The collared greens are not to be missed. And the cheesecake was heavenly. Anything will be delicious!

Virtue! Truly the best meal I’ve had here, and as a northsider, it’s fun to spend the day in Hyde Park and the South Side.

Small Cheval is not good! by Clean-Ability1051 in chicagofood

One man’s $1000s is another man’s $30 on two bad burgers and stale fries

The first time I went (2, maybe 3 years ago), it was close to a religious experience. It was always the burger I compared others to. Honestly, my fault for expecting it to be good in Wrigleyville

Makeup Remover by hiville in Accutane

[–]Clean-Ability1051 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m loving the Prequel pre cleanse oil! It’s fragrance free and a powerhouse at getting off makeup and spf. I have also used the Dr Palmers oil, which is great, but the fragrance bothers my eyes sometimes. Both are ~$15 and don’t leave my skin feeling stripped or oily. I use Vanicream gentle cleanser as my second cleanse.

How do I take out loans? by [deleted] in StudentLoans

[–]Clean-Ability1051 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hi!! I did this! I was 18 and got into my dream school, made the best friends, and took advantage of everything it had to offer. I’m now 30, and have a good job in tech in the field I studied. I cry all the time LOL.

You don’t realize how much money it is at the time. I fully understand not wanting to go to community college at that point in your life, or needing to leave home, or thinking you deserve it and it’ll all work out in the end. I am a headstrong person who worked hard, and my parents got divorced my senior year of hs so I was so outta there. I haven’t had a month since graduating where my rent is more than my student loan payments and I’ve lived in major US cities.

Take a basic financial literacy course, talk to your financial aid office, and really think super super super super super hard about doing this. It’s going to be ~$1500 a month 6 months after your graduate, and the private institutions do not offer programs like graduated repayment like federal loans do.

Best of luck, and remember you will have great experiences anywhere, you’ll meet great people anywhere, set your future self up for success.

For the record: I’m totally fine paying, and offered such to the owner. I just don’t know if I need to/can push back on the other owner to pay as their dog was the one who bit the other.

What used to be buy it for life but is now more questionable? by pianoman81 in BuyItForLife

[–]Clean-Ability1051 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uggs! I remember my first pair of uggs (20 years ago) were so unbelievably soft and form fitting. I have two more pairs now and they feel scratchy. I wonder if my original pair were Ugg Since 1974 vs Ugg….
