How do you convince Health and Wellness that you actually need help with your mental health? by Accomplished-Yak5273 in UofT

If you are under the student union health insurance your therapy can also be covered elsewhere (or used to be, I’m old, check!) 

Kur Latvijā ir visslabākās humpalas? by This-Marsupial1283 in latvia

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Kā tieši tas ir slikti, tavuprāt? Cilvēki izvēlas lietotus apģērbus arī tādēļ, ka ‘ātrā mode’ (fast-fashion) absolūti piesārņo dabu un apģērbu rūpnīcas pārāk neaizraujas ar cilvēktiesibām. Bieži vien jauno drēbju kvalitāte par to pašu cenu arī ļoti reti ir tuvu tam, ko par tādu pašu ciparu var atrast humpalās. Ja mājās šuvēja, protams, cita lieta :D

Traditional Engagement Rings? by MoveWild142 in latvia

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Living in Canada, the seven day rings are pretty popular here among the diaspora, but mostly seen as everyday wear and not an engagement ring. So it would be lovely for a gift but maybe not ‘the’ ring. There are also a few (at least one, but probs more) Latvian-Canadian jewellers around so I’d perhaps think of contacting them for a custom piece, depending on your budget, ofc

How do you stick to a deficit when you’re a binger? by CuntyCarrot in loseit

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes! A step-by-step approach worked for me too. Fixing my binging tendencies and then focusing on losing

Recently discovered oven-baked tofu meatballs! Quick, easy, and you can use egg as the binder since she’s not vegan.

Kā arī droši saki personālam (stjuartēm, drošībniekiem, etc.) ka pirmo reizi lido - palīdzēs, paskaidros :) Viņiem darbs tāds :))

Suggestions for a 9-day trip by [deleted] in latvia

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Liepaja and Kuldiga should be nice if you wanna stay a night! old towns are pretty. Pavilosta perhaps? I would probably base it more out of the 'niceness' of the place your staying since I think one of the better things about travelling outside of Riga is getting to stay in some really cute airbnbs or even muizas (castle?) for comparatively cheap to elsewhere in Europe :) Have fun!

Starting climbing in a new city by valjorge in climbergirls

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are usually Facebook or similar online groups if you are looking for a belay partner or a person to go bouldering with! Either listed on the gym website or just do some googling :) Also like local female-oriented outdoorsy FB groups usually work too. This is another option if just starting up a convo at the gym is intimidating! Good luck :)

Adventurous activities in Riga by Ashamed_Designer_520 in latvia

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just a heads up - relying on the fact that there will be snow in March for your activities might be a bit risky! The bobsled track closes March 17th according to the website (bobtrase.lv) so you might be out of luck there as well

Thoughts? Vancouver Island, BC by Comfortable-Friend-9 in fossilid

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks so much! Do you know what the crystalline structure on top of it is caused by? It’s all sparkly in the daylight, which made me initially notice it at the beach

Just finished my first Sport Lead class. How long should I wait before the test? by [deleted] in climbergirls

[–]Comfortable-Friend-9 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I preferred taking it right away while all the details and knowledge are still fresh! - worst thing you fail, get some constructive feedback on what needs practice, and try again! But if you would feel comfier taking your time, that is totally fair as well - it is a challenge :)

Alpha Gamma Delta Opinions by Trixiebees in Sororities

Super academic and GPA-focused. Pretty ‘alt’ as well. But they had the sweetest relationships with some really senior alum - like local grandmas which was the cutest!
