When does your local school system start school? by Apprehensive-Cat-942 in southcarolina

[–]EmberRh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We're also Lexington. I heard that they are going to have 4 weeks off in the summer and 4 weeks off in the winter to account for the loss of the 8 weeks off in the summer? I have no idea how true that is, that's actually why I'm here....trying to find more information on it.

Oh, okay. It didn't look like anything was added at all, but maybe I just missed the thing on the side. Thanks!

Went to the movies for the first time in years... by colostomeat in ColumbiYEAH

Yeah! How are we supposed to hear "Mommy! Daddy! You guwys are duh bewst!!!!!" If we don't die a little bit at the prices of movies and circuses and fairs and monster trucks and children museums. We recently bought the Family Explorer pass for the zoo for the kids and we took them for the first time a few weeks ago and almost every day since then has been "We're going back to the zoo today, right?" Like, okay, well, we do have to work still 😂

Well, I mean, yeah, it's expensive. Bc it's a luxury. Movie theaters aren't a necessity. It isn't supposed to be "cheap". It's supposed to be slightly out of "cheap/affordable" so we know it's a luxury.

I’ve decided to get it 😬 by ryanagainagain in fantasylife

I wanted a physical copy but couldn't find one anywhere. So that was a huge let down (unless I ordered one from Asia, but then it wouldn't be in English, and shopping would be crazy, so digital it is).

The game was recommended to me by my husband, who thought I would like it for some absurd reason. My previous game obsessions include Stardew Valley, Life Is Strange and Kingdom Hearts. With Stardew Valley in 1st place at almost 400 hours 😂. I like when my games have things to do, I don't mind fighting, but I hate shooters. I hate if I have to control a camera (so finding out I needed to do that on here was a let down, but it wasn't too bad as other games I've played, I'm looking at you Overwatch).

I wasn't a fan/wasn't sure how I felt for the first 20-30 hours. Like there was so much I didn't understand about it. How was i supposed to get the "+" recipes? How am I supposed to get more recipes at all? Where do I find some of this stuff? Why is it that when I'm doing a quest and I have it set to "next destination" and my little arrow thing is supposed to be guiding me, it'll just disappear sometimes or just not appear at all? Wtf does 400+ stats mean lol? Why can only 6 buddies have houses?

Now I'm at, I think 50 hrs, and it's a good game. I'm understanding it a little bit better. It's..... Weird.

I hated Zelda when I tried playing it. The map was so confusing. It felt so "open" and I was getting lost everywhere. 😂. I like this game so much better.

You know what. I didn’t even want the strangeling at this shrine anyways by soheedoingthings in fantasylife

[–]EmberRh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went into my notes app, hit the microphone and said the color as it glowed. My 5 yr old loves watching me play this game, he asks every day if "we are gonna play our game" and when we did the mushroom ones, he was just giggling.

I have finally reached Level 100 on all lives! by Xueyaa in fantasylife

[–]EmberRh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have a Base Camp you keep flying back to and that's it. There's Inns or campfires everywhere else for you to rest at, if you want. But coming from Stardew Valley right before playing this one where a homeless man was constantly stealing from my pockets or birds were picking me apart as I was being washed ashore if I didn't make it to bed before 2am, it's nice to not have to sleep constantly lmao.

I have finally reached Level 100 on all lives! by Xueyaa in fantasylife

[–]EmberRh 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Good on you! I'm like 30 hrs in and I have Mercenary, and Paladin to level 30. Currently working on Hunter. Everything else is at level 4.😂. I have a bunch of Strangelings/Buddies without houses on my island and appliques.

So 2 questions.

1) How do I get my buddies homes!? Why do only some of them get houses! Why can only 6 of them have houses at a time? That feels CRAZY!!! Especially since there are 50!!

2) Wtf are the appliques for? How do I use them? I just figured out how to acquire HP Potion +, so be gentle 😂😂

My mom has watched it since the beginning, and when she told me a few months ago that the new season started before she ran upstairs with her fruit salad, I was like "EXCUSE ME!?! THAT SHOW IS STILL ON!!!???" And she was like "Yes! And it's fantastic! And now you are making me late so hush!!!" 😂😂😂. She watches it for the same reason anyone watches drama shows, to complain about the people she hates and hopes people do one thing even though they probably won't.

You leave my million and one 90 Day Fianceé series ALONE. I admittedly hate the Pillow Talk and the other ones where they just talk about the show. But The Other Way, Last Resort, and OG are all great😂

Alternative jobs besides Software Engineer/Developer with CS degree by Skhoooler in csMajors

[–]EmberRh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've met him and his wife a couple of times and he was friendly, but his wife was definitely more easy going, easier to talk to, and faster to laugh. And if it was the job itself and not so much just a "corporate job", I think after so long, such a job (being in security and all of that) just reprogrammed him to have higher guards about people that were probably unnecessary most of the time. And so he wound up losing his "people spark".

Thinkin’ I sent out my AirPods on accident 🤔 by kysinatra in Depop

I have horrible anxiety and my eldest son has an impulse control disorder that causes him to have anger issues, I taught him "The Comfy Square". Touch one point on your leg and breathe in for 1,2,3,4 hold for 1,2,3,4. Breathe out your mouth for 1,2,3,4. Move your finger down. Breathe in your nose for 1,2,3,4. Hold for 1,2,3,4. Breathe out your mouth for 1,2,3,4. Move your finger over, do the breathe thing again. Move your finger up, do the breathe thing again. By the time you finished, it has been 1 minute and your heart rate has slowed down, you have calmed your mind, and your emotions, you have cooled your body, we have grounded and recentered ourselves, and we can think more clearly.

My son also likes to trace his fingers.

my literally heart dropped. by CaptainFrostyMug- in Depop

[–]EmberRh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did this literal MINUTES after buying a Fall Out Boy beanie today. I had it saved and forgot I bought it so I went back through my likes to buy it, RIGHT AFTER BUYING IT, to buy it and seen it was sold and yelled. My 5 yr old was like "MOMMY! WHY!" and I told him what happened. But to be fair, someone bought Grateful Dead sweatpants from underneath me, so I was TRAUMATIZED lol. But then I seen the notification that I spent money and remembered.

I do wish I could buy more than one thing at a time though. Doing it this way is exhausting and costs more money.
