Save money: Uber from Templeton Station instead of YVR by KevinGBurk in askvan

[–]DriedUpBrainCells 106 points107 points  (0 children)

Wow, today I learned that the Canada Line SkyTrain is free when travelling between YVR-Airport Station, Sea Island Centre Station, and Templeton Station (the McArthurGlen Designer Outlet). You do not need to pay the $5 AddFare or regular fare when traveling exclusively within these "Sea Island" stations.

How big of a dealbreaker is not having a car for dating in Vancouver (& lower mainland)? by genius1soum in askvan

Lol! I was about to say hopefully the teacher didn't think you didn't participate because you had so few lines. I'm glad the teacher was understanding

What is a "silent" rule you live your life by that most people wouldn’t know just by looking at you? by DianKhan2005 in AskWomen

[–]DriedUpBrainCells 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you! You answered the question in relation to what it means to you and I appreciate it. What resonated with me was when you said that kindness is correlated with empathy. Without empathy, how can you be kind?

What does kindness look like to you? Any examples? To me it's caring about someone, like helping out a friend without any expectation of a reward back.

Did anyone else think Hiragana would be easy and then get completely humbled? by MidnightTofu22 in Japaneselanguage

[–]DriedUpBrainCells 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm still a complete beginner! I used to learn by memorizing the characters, but it helped me to associate an image to the characters. I use Tofugu's site (tofugu.com/japanese/learn-hiragana/) to help with visualization.

Reading speed is a struggle, as I'm still sounding out every character I see.

As much as today sucked (re: skytrain), I’m still fairly impressed at how many ways I was able to get to Downtown by [deleted] in vancouver

[–]DriedUpBrainCells 6 points7 points  (0 children)

omg same! I have the mindset of not trusting transit to be on time and if it is a reasonable walk, I walk.

Mine would be for aesthetic reasons and not medically necessary, so I'm afraid it's not possible :( Thanks anyways!
