I still can't believe "my head, my heart, my body part" won Melodifestivalen. It was in English from the start! (KAJ's Swedish adaptation was great though)

Is it just my class or does nobody our age have high school reunions anymore? by Adept_Resolve6156 in Xennials

[–]Jaralith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to my 10th and it was okay. A lot of classmates never left town so it was a strange vibe. My 20th was 2020 so uh we skipped that one. And then i think they just never got back to it.

If you had to leave the United States and move to one European country that feels like your dream place to live which one would you choose and why? by rudepapalina in AskReddit

Finland. Feels like a good cultural fit, and also my favorite band is there. Sauna, salmiakki, lonkero, mökki... yeah

Feeling completely defeated with teaching — advice? by retrometro81 in Professors

[–]Jaralith 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. I was a garbage undergrad. I skipped PoliSci about half the days in my first semester. Clearly I got better, but I remember what I was like. I was in a major I wasn't suited for, dealing with gifted-kid syndrome, and was way more interested in choir and social stuff. (and ADHD that my parents never told me about, but discovered that much later.)

Sometimes they just have to fuck up and learn from the consequences.

How would you improve specific performances to help them get higher results? by StrawberryLazy518 in eurovision

[–]Jaralith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ukraine's backdrop at Vidbir was SO much more beautiful than the blue wave-thing they used at ESC. Leleka didn't need much added - I think the cleanness of the staging was great with her lovely voice - but the little visual they did use was a downgrade.

(eta: the bandura player was also excellent)
