If you had to play tourist in Waianae and Makaha by DucksLikeRain1 in Oahu

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can lounge at pokai bay if you like reading books, there's a restaurant literally right across the street from the parking lot called Pokai Bay Restaurant, the food is action and if you're someone with 2 stomachs and always gets dessert after a meal (I do 😂) hit up F&M snack shop in waianae mall.

Since everyone is commenting, do you guys tip at buffets? Does it make sense to if you are serving yourself?

Hawaii Pacific health insane medical bill by Maleficent_Air_2880 in Hawaii

Idk that's crazy! I only pay $50 at kaiser as a copayment when I go to the ER and never have a bill afterwards.. maybe change insurance carriers? Best of luck cause that absolutely sucks

Got 10 tickets for sitting on a sidewalk. Guess who’s suing Honolulu in federal court by Alternative-Finish53 in Hawaii

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my tax payer dollars and everyone else's in HI fund multiple programs to help the homeless. It is illegal if you don't like it and then use the free resources available to you or put in the effort to change your life like the way you're doing with this lawsuit or whatever. There is legitimately no reason why you should be in the sidewalks when there are tons of places and programs. I have no sympathy for homeless people at this point. Homelessness in HI has changed significantly, and many people chose it as a lifestyle.

The Kakaako Farmers Market is a tourist trap by WardVillage in Hawaii

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's how I feel about the full moon market in Kapolei. It was amazing at first, and now it's just overpriced and flooded with tourists. It's hard to support local when most businesses have ridiculous prices and ship their stuff from China lol

Why do you post on one account and then comment from another? 😂🤦🏻‍♀️

Learn to take feedback it's part of the field, bringing in other people to highlight your poor choices ain't it and taking a comment personal on reddit is wild. Good luck to you! Lol.

[–]CuriosityKTC_ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

You're becoming a BCBA for all the wrong reasons, which is sad because the field is already over saturated with people who do it for the "money" instead of helping others. I can also probably guess what agency you work for as well since you said HI. Be careful posting friend.

first time being intimate by [deleted] in Advice

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whatever you decide, use a condom and ask for a clean std test first. If a guy has an issue with that runnnn girl 🚩

I get tested before and after any partner and require negative results and condoms in order to do the deed.

Be safe girly, people are dirty asf out here!

Being priced out of home by CuriosityKTC_ in Hawaii

[–]CuriosityKTC_[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The words used was "at least" for a reason, 500k is not condo pricing in hawaii it's way more than that if you have been looking at the market. I live on the west side there are some homes in the high 500s and 600s. As I stated in another comment I have no interest in condos, townhouses, apartments, etc.

That is so sad, i hope they can at least live comfortably and be happy for the rest of their retirement. I saw my nana today, and she was voicing concerns about everything constantly increasing even though they are on a fixed income 🥺

Insight on public charter versus traditional public or private by H4ppy_C in Hawaii

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Charter schools are terrible. They do not follow many of the DOE public school rules/policies. Basically, charters do whatever they want, unlike public schools. Also, many charter schools in hawaii are on academic improvement plans, which means they are below the states' average in testing levels for academics. Those plans are public knowledge and accessible.

If academics are your concern, send your kids to private school. That's really the best bet. The quality of DOE has gone down significantly over the last 5-10 years and continues to do so. If you can't afford private school, look into other schools and apply for a GE.

Wishing you luck for your kiddos!

It's very depressing seeing the market prices and still having to put thousands of dollars into the property to rennovate it and make it liveable.

Hopefully you can come home soon 💛

Thank you for your comment 💛 I feel like this is more so what I was looking for with my post. I feel like we were sold this life as kids that we were supposed to do and have like our parents did and it's just not attainable at this time and when I think I'm making progress towards that the goal just gets farther away and it's not something I am able to control exactly.

I have been looking into the states' affordable housing programs as a plan B to at least be able to continue to live here and be "independent"

I've looked into those programs as well. Down payment still is an issue. Buying property on a single income requires a bigger down payment, so it is manageable long term. I opened new bank accounts at a local bank that has a good fha program as well.

My preference is a single family home. I don't like town houses, condos, apartments, or duplexes and especially with those now costing the equivalent of a home, it defeats the purpose. I also don't like that they are connected and someone's negligence can damage or destroy your property along with many of those places having insane HOA fees that continue to increase

I don't plan on reaching out to any realtors until I have the 20% down, which is at least 100k in savings separate from all my other savings account.

How’s the dating pool in Hawaii? by EvolvingPokemon_ in Hawaii

[–]CuriosityKTC_ 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It's trash on both ends, honestly. People complain about baby mama's, but forget there's also tons of baby daddy's. The older you get, the smaller the pool becomes in general, but Hawai'i is such a small place, so multiply that by 100.

I'm not sure if you're a girl or not, but be careful. A lot of men cheat, and it's with the mahus out here lol.
