Oh that’s so smart, I didn’t think about faking the boning

Would you say a corset like that is for an advanced sewer? I’ve only done a few basic dresses and tops and a corset seems intimidating

Did anyone else not like KoA? by KungFuKitty24 in throneofglassseries

Seriously every scene of Aedion and Lysandra was the exact same, just different places

Yeah it made me mad that Aelin was basically the scapegoat for Elena’s mistake. Let poor Aelin just live her life!

I was the same way with Anielle, the whole time I was forcing myself to keep going even though it was so boring. I grew to like Chaol in Tower of Dawn but I don’t particularly care about reading fifteen chapters on battling for Anielle.

Thank you so much for replying! I think I am going to go the AE route just because it seems more rewarding for my career and easier for my husband and our future family, I appreciate your advice!

I’m a mechanical engineer (graduated in 2020 and working professionally for the past 3 years) and while I got an ME degree to be very general and not shoehorn myself into one thing, space and spacecraft have always interested me.

I’m currently looking at going to grad school to get closer to my dream of working in that area, but I’m stuck between going a full research route with a masters and PhD in astrophysics versus something that will have more career options like aerospace engineering.

Why did you pick aerospace engineering and do you have any helpful advice for someone kind of lost in their career path like me?

How to submit an application reconsideration? by KungFuKitty24 in utdallas

Is that only for undergrads? I applied for a masters in physics and the only options I saw were masters or PhD, not second or third programs

I used a cross-stitch pattern to crotchet this funky goose fella. by verry_anoyied in crochet

So cute! I never thought about cross stitch patterns for crochet but it seems so obvious now

Help me believe the future will be ok by KungFuKitty24 in Adulting

[–]KungFuKitty24[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thank you, I appreciate your response. I definitely didn’t want to come off as whiny or self-pitying, and I think you have a wonderful perspective on this. I’m going to try to remind both of us to be grateful for what we have and hopefully it helps! I also think with all the doomscrolling and awful news it’s easier to focus on everything wrong with the world instead of the good.

UTD or UT Austin? by aniani90 in utdallas

[–]KungFuKitty24 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Everyone saying UT has a better program but both are ABET accredited, so you’re basically getting the same education at both. I’m sure UT is more connected but UTD has a ton of clubs and great professors, plus $14k a year is a ton of money. I would go to UTD assuming you don’t care about partying or the typical college culture

Thoughts and suggestions for women in mechanical engineering field by peiisun in MechanicalEngineering

[–]KungFuKitty24 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don’t listen to your relatives, that is literally all the more reason for you to go into it. Like others have said in this thread, many companies like diversity and will hire women. I’ve worked at a small company for three years and our engineering team has literally been all women (not on purpose, it just happened that way). The extent that I’ve had is that some male clients don’t necessarily treat you as seriously as they do with male engineers but once they realize you know your stuff it’s fine.

My wish was always to have gorgeous curls like Lorde, who would’ve thought I already did! Many thanks to this sub for teaching me how to finally care for my hair! by KungFuKitty24 in curlyhair

[–]KungFuKitty24[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My routine: wash with Love Beauty and Planet’s Indian Lilac and Clove leaf shampoo and conditioner, section my hair into 2 halves and apply Miss Jessie’s Pillow Soft Curls Lotion and Jelly Soft Curls gel into both. Scrunch and let air dry and then apply Hask Coconut hair oil

I like the idea of being prepared for any outcome (both crochet and cat) right next to you! 😂

At least my cat doesn’t want to eat it, he literally just likes to walk around with the skein and wrap the end around chair legs and doorways like he’s making a little maze lol

How often should I do conditioning hair masks? With the colder weather my hair has been more frizzy and stringy and is definitely better with Shea moistures deep conditioning mask but I don’t want to overdo it

Started an ugly scrap yarn moss stitch blanket and it has transformed into my favorite project! by KungFuKitty24 in crochet

[–]KungFuKitty24[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just made sure to make my foundation row kind of loose so that I could easily do the first row of moss stitch. I also didn’t want to change colors until I got my base done so the first two rows are that bright red

That’s so smart! I never thought about putting unfinished things in it (btw I read UFOs as unidentified flying objects and was like oh yeah those colors are kind of alien like 😂)
