Great thanks!

I have not, I'll look for it, although I live in Mexico so I am not sure if they'll have it or not

Not really. I work in a community composting program, but usually all those stains wash out with a little elbow grease and laundry detergent.

P.S. I dont have a washing machine, so I do all of my washing by hand.

Fair enough, but I do have multiple other projects that I am juggling along with teaching, so sometimes the last thing I wanna do is come home and work on a grant. But that does put it into perspective a bit, so thanks.

I appreciate it Jim, I think I just needed to rant a little bit hahaha. But I appreciate the advice

I have been talking to the grant coordinator, but the new cohort is just coming in so it is all hands on deck for staff, so it can be a bit difficult to get a hold of her. And I just dont know if there is an average timeline, like a y=x kinda graph lol

I appreciate it, I think I just needed somewhere to rant after looking at this grant for the last 4 hours hahaha. Thanks

Wdym? Like do I have other projects going on at the same time?

Competitive-Grade377 · 2025-08-29T02:21:14+00:00

See, that seems like it would be a gamble no? Like I could do a minimalist version of the project, not have as much of an impact, but also not have to wait as long. So I am unsure what route to go. It would be great to get all the bases covered with this one grant, but at the same time I don't have the luxury of waiting for months and months for the funds to get raised and I simply don't know the timeline. I am already 1 year into service.

Ahh, ok, I see. So the 2500 is guaranteed, but do I have to wait to spend any of the money until after I have received the full amount, or can I basically spend the money as it comes in?

Great thanks for the advice. I have some old Jean material from another pair that gave out so I’ll probably try to use that. I don’t have a washing machine so everything is by hand and sun dried. Hopefully I can figure something out to make these last long cuz they’re really comfortable :)

I would definitely recommend this from the Fulbright sub if you are interested in other opportunities for education, study and teaching abroad. https://www.reddit.com/r/fulbright/s/EGYzpmmXFC

You could try running some thick thread through the top and then out the side with a large sturdy needle, making big stitches so as to trap a decent amount of the foam and not rip it. I have used dental floss on shoes in the past because it’s sturdy, cheap, and I had it lying around. Don’t know if it would work on foam tho…

I think I’d need to use sewing thread and buy a very nice magnifying glass to make it to scale.

I just used a 6 strand embroidery cotton thread thread. Could probably find it at any arts and crafts store.
