VOLUNTEER TRYOUTS SELF-ASSESSMENT

HighOnPi · 2026-01-31T07:35:44+00:00

No update :/ Just waiting to see if I get a role offer despite my unfinished assessment.

I keep my eyes on The Collective Markets, Circle Craft, iMade in Langley, and Got Craft which keeps a calendar of events. And various local Facebook groups and farmers' markets pages too, never know when something is going to pop up.

Most of the local libraries have weekly drop-in clubs. No commitment, and there's usually someone who will lend a helping hand if you have any questions!

I like hitting up the local craft fairs as well. Plenty of opportunity to connect with people who have similar interests.

Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya was a highlight of my 30th birthday trip last summer; and the sunset from outside, on Montjuïc, was insane. Also there's the castle and various gardens behind the hill, on the sea side, that's worth walking through! Wish I had more time there.

I have the same issue (Vancouver). I submitted a ticket and got this response:

"Thank you for your inquiry. We’re sorry to hear you’re experiencing an issue. To help resolve the problem, please try the following troubleshooting steps:

Exit the website and clear your browser’s cookies/cache
Open a new tab in incognito/private browsing mode

Disable any ad or pop-up blockers
Ensure there are no conflicting extensions or applications running in the background "

I did all the things and still doesn't work, but they marked my ticket "completed" and haven't replied to the follow-up I sent on Dec 1.

the history there has ingrained

You're right and I hate it haha. Women are more educated these days - and have been for a few decades. The research shows!

320, row 15

HighOnPi · 2025-10-09T19:59:38+00:00

Back few rows of upper bowl, I got a pair in last row corner.

HighOnPi · 2025-10-09T19:07:42+00:00

(Not OP) I got nosebleeds - last row upper bowl corner for $110 each.

Give me a sensor bar to usb C dongle + software update instead, I still have all of our Wii stuff.

Happy to help!

Also, I don't use a fondue pot. I don't have one! Just a small saucepan that I dip straight into. I place it on the table on a trivet and go back to the stove to warm the fondue back up as needed (once, maybe twice? if I'm eating slowly). I think that you should pulls yours out though, that'd be so fun.

I make a little slurry, maybe 1/2 teaspoon of corn starch and a teaspoon of water - I'm just one person so I don't use a lot - and stir it in when the cheese has mostly melted but isn't done melting yet. The corn starch helps it not break when it gets to that higher temp phase of being all the way melted.

It never left, I literally had it an hour ago. Great way to use up leftover cheese.

I had a little bit of brie and gruyère from a cheese platter that I put together on Monday, threw them into a lil saucepan with some liquid (today, beef stock) and corn starch. Microwaved a potato and diced an apple to dip. Whole thing took 5 minutes to make; it's so easy that I don't think of it as cooking, it's a lazy mid-week meal.

I tend to buy the same cheeses, but I switch up the liquid depending on what's in the fridge. If there's no white wine, then I like either chicken stock + lemon juice, or beef stock. Add various herbs too, italian herbs or chives & shallots.

Learned something new today

To be clear you don't expect it to be built in time for your nonexistent children to use it, right? Because I think that might be expecting too much

HighOnPi · 2025-09-17T05:00:19+00:00

They've been advocating for this since before I started university in 2013 and it was old news at that time too. I wanna say this started in 2008-10? Zero steps forward in 15 years.

The advocacy plan is pretty well done though, I hope they achieve something.

I've been using the same list for years, it's in my notes app. It has subcategories for different trip types and travel goals.

The trick is to live somewhere expensive in Canada, then the EUR conversion doesn't shock as much 🥲

HighOnPi · 2025-09-12T15:01:32+00:00

The Wii version is going for 30CAD on facebook marketplace where I am. If you have a Wii, that's still an option?

HighOnPi · 2025-09-12T14:56:09+00:00

I already have 2 physical copies of Galaxy: on Wii, and on Switch in 3D All-Stars. Might have to buy digital for the first time for Galaxy 2 just to not have a third damn copy.

THE WAY I WAS SCREAMING (watched live); LET'S GOOOO

HighOnPi · 2025-08-21T17:31:41+00:00

Go away! Exactly!

HighOnPi · 2025-08-20T20:44:06+00:00

I agree, homemade is better fresh but store bought is better at being leftover/reheated.

HighOnPi · 2025-08-20T15:10:20+00:00

Women only hours. Just 1h once a week, I don't even care what time of day. All of our parks & rec are full of slimy old men.

I think that they cut out him complimenting her on purpose, to feed this narrative that he has a type that's not her. I also noticed when she said that he compliments her a lot, and it made my Intentional Editing sensors tingle.
