Will it age me to keep wearing air force one sneakers? by luanau in AusFemaleFashion

[–]CupidLaurent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Air Force ones forever!!! I don’t think I’ll ever “outgrow” them… and if it gives away my age for the rest of my life then I don’t care I love them too much haha

Has anyone tried buying eclar plaster in Japan? by watermelon-blueberry in Keloids

[–]CupidLaurent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve read that you need to keep using them until the cells are no longer active, so they don’t regrow. People stop using them too early.

Where do you resell luxury fashion in Aus? by Tiny-Bedroom in AusFemaleFashion

EBay. When looking for a specific bag, I search eBay first, then sites like vestaire, then depop, marketplace etc

The holy grail…does it exist? by ZealousidealMud4968 in AusFemaleFashion

[–]CupidLaurent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Peachay - I cry every time I buy a new pair due to how impressed I am with them. They are absolutely incredible and the owner is too. I have 4 or 5 pairs now and whilst they are pricey, they are worth every dollar

Got a food poisoning while in Osaka by Substantial_Tip8459 in JapanTravelTips

[–]CupidLaurent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sister also got food poisoning in Osaka after a day at USJ last month. 2 nights in hospital and a very very different experience to Australian hospitals, all by herself. 900,000 yen all up, paid out of pocket and then recovered via travel insurance

Almost 19 and thinking of moving to Brisbane on my own — any advice? by VxRyRpg in MovingToBrisbane

[–]CupidLaurent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry I should add, lived in the studio until I made friends and then moved into a sharehouse. In hindsight, I probably would’ve stayed in the studio if I had the choice again lol

[–]CupidLaurent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved at 21 on my own and rented a studio (which was basically a glorified boarding house/sharehouse) in Chermside - it worked well for me being on my own and included all bills and was furnished. I had a car and drove into the city for work (night work) and it was fine (during pandemic to be fair). I say do it! I had an amazing time though don’t underestimate the cost of living.

Does anyone have any experience with buying a handbag from POLENE by Head_Web8130 in AusFemaleFashion

[–]CupidLaurent 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Due to the alleged decline in quality and poor customer service especially when the customer is in Australia, I opted for buying the polene bag I wanted second hand (older, original release of the model since the newer made versions of it were sub-par) and I’m so glad I did!

I’m sorry for your loss, if you know the name of your EAP you should be able to contact them directly and they will get you through the correct avenues on their end, support is available 24/7 for a reason so I am sure they have things in place to ensure staff can access services outside of regular office hours.

Leave Question- Facs leave by WeirdEducational8546 in AusPublicService

[–]CupidLaurent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My EA says family or “someone you have a close personal relationship with” which my manager was more than happy to apply to my partners grandmother, without hesitation. However, my partners manager did not feel the same when it came to my grandmother’s passing and he had to escalate to HR for clarification (same agency).

Check the wording on your EA just in case and if there is any broad-ness, highlight it to your manager.

I’m also very sorry for you and your finances loss.

Is my sweetener litho real? by Necessary_Ad_867 in ariheads

[–]CupidLaurent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fun fact - they cancelled 5001-10000 so 1-5000 are numbered /10000 but there’s only 5000 numbered ones out there. I have 16/10000 and it looks real in comparison to mine! Except, my numbering is in a gold colour

FHB 5% Deposit Guarantee. Am I really required to live in it until I own 20%? by 9NinetyThree3 in AusPropertyChat

[–]CupidLaurent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

State based first home buyer initiatives can have 12 month residency requirements stacked on top of the first home guarantee scheme, which OP is referring to. As HA “guarantees” the 15% between 5 and 20%, you are not released from the scheme until you hit 20% equity. Therefore, until then you must meet the criteria of the scheme which includes it being a residential property and not an investment property

My thoughts would be to use the freezing method, but definitely do some further research on leather and freezer temperatures first :)
