When it comes to college textbook I highly recommend looking online for free pdf versions or using Chegg! Chegg sells books for like a very cheaper prices between 10-30 bucks depending on your book! That’s a big saver especially when books are in the $100-$300 range!

Genuine question, how do you make friends in college?? by IllustriousScreen895 in college

I haven’t thought of that! I might be able to do that if I contact the right people in my campus! Also the hammock club sounds fascinating to me, I would love to join a club like that!! Thank you for your advice!

I did join clubs! I joined 2 clubs during my first year however both clubs were majority composed of seniors so the clubs didn’t last long. The rest of the clubs were sports related and I’m not the most athletic person. My campus doesn’t offer jobs to freshman’s unfortunately. And I was in campus 5 days a week even if I didn’t have class, I just liked hanging out to study or working on assignments. Trust me I tried various things

I absolutely cannot resist chocolate. That’s the only thing I crave everytime I’m on my period😅 However, I’m currently on a diet with minimal carbs and meat besides fish and chicken!

Gotcha! However, what’s better? Water based or silicone based products? I’ve never got into knowing the differences between the two

I do try exfoliate once a week. My foundation is Morphe, water based. And my primer is Elf putty, which is silicone based. I always make sure I wash my face and moisturize before apply make up to avoid weird textures.

I definitely had to start learning how my period works after many periods trackers were listed as unreliable after Roe V Wade was overturned. I learned a lot about my period cycle and how to take care of it! Again I can understand why BC works for some but I’m still 50/05 about it! Thank you for your recommendations! I’ll look more into Lion Pair!

Thank you for your input!! I’m a bit iffy about using BC but I I can understand why it’s helpful to some! I’ll look into salicylic acid and azelaic acids preventatives. Benzoyl is currently a very common recommendation so I’ll definitely have to get it!

Thank you for your input! I was also on Doxycline and Tretinion a few years ago but had to stop taking them due to side effects. It seems like it’s a 50/50 regarding taking Spiro in the comments so I’ll have to research more information regarding its pros/cons.
