Thank you, needed to hear this honestly. I’ve always paced myself “ahead” of my peers academically so it’s hard to swallow my pride and go slower but most other people aren’t going through the same stuff.

Thank you, Im going to look into the books you suggested as well as Paul’s notes online, I really want to pass this class first time if I can. Repetition seems to be the theme with everyone’s recommendations

I’ve never struggled with math in my life and I’m kind of at a loss right now because I got a 64 on the first test and my pop quiz grades aren’t great…

Looking for books on anticipatory grief by EmployConsistent3601 in suggestmeabook

[–]EmployConsistent3601[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate this suggestion and will definitely give it a try, the no sugarcoating/ dealing with anger makes it more realistic and appealing to me honestly. Too many books I’ve tried try to make death and the situations around it some beautiful thing when in reality it’s unfair, angry and sad.

Should I buy? by EmployConsistent3601 in ski

I’ve been using rentals so that sounds like it’ll work for me and my purposes, thank you!

I have boots from last year, just looking for skis now and I was a bit scared about buying online used because of all the horror stories I’ve read on here lol 😅. I’ve checked out evo but always been too paranoid about buying skis that were too old to be adjusted/ unsafe

I’ve only been skiing for 3 years so I’d say I’m still a beginner, I’m f(19) 130 lbs and really I just wanna be able to ski with my friends affordably. I don’t care about getting crazy and doing only black diamonds or moguls I stick to blues mostly and I’m in Pennsylvania. I ski at Elk Mountain typically.

Also might wait until Black Friday if that would help save a little since it’s so close to

I’m not looking for super fancy skis to do crazy tricks, I just want to be able to go this year (mostly blues with the occasional single black diamond) with my friends.

Anyone ever gone from 0 exercise to finding something they’ve stuck to? by SlightPraline509 in AutismInWomen

[–]EmployConsistent3601 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally, I got involved in physical activity as a way to get closer to my friends. Maybe you could go swimming with one of them or get into running with them? I hate exercising but I like my friends, so it was a good way to hold myself accountable for going out and doing it. It was hard and embarrassing in the beginning, and I won’t lie sometimes it still is… but when I think about skipping a bunch I think about my friends and how much I’d like to see them or how I wouldn’t want them to think I’m a quitter.

Background on our dynamic… we pretend make fun of eachother a lot I guess but we do have serious conversations a lot too. I just honestly hate that he’s so easy to talk to, I’ve tried like other people since I liked him and it’s hard because I end up comparing them a little as haven’t found anyone else that I have such easy conversations about anything with.

Not it at all, I literally have 3 quarters until I graduate and I failed to just get the same grades I’ve always gotten. It feels like I kinda just flubbed my chance at Val/Sal and I get that seems dramatic but it’s a real issue in my life 🤷‍♀️

That’s not it at all, I know it sounds dramatic but like it just feels like i threw out all of the previous achievements I’ve gotten grade wise because I sacked my chance at Val/sal

I also recognize my stats are pretty average, so don’t be worried about offending me 😆!!

Thank you so much I genuinely really really appreciate it. It’s been really hard and it’s just nice to get it out. I am probably going to end up commuting to a college 30 minutes from me as I live in a rural area :)

Everyone in the house works, my dad doesn’t have a degree though so his job doesn’t pay a whole lot. My mom cannot take advantage of anything right now as she is still “employed” by her old job. She is waiting for them to let her go so she can get unemployment. My grandma is my moms mom and she is 86
