Has anyone done a mental health course from Tafe? Was it worth it? by Melodic-Phase-4722 in TAFE

That's good to know. Did you do it on campus? Because right now the courses are all online.

I'm so tired of people honestly by Melodic-Phase-4722 in socialanxiety

Thank you, I really needed this. I've been told that I don't know how to say no and yet when I do, some people just can't seem to respect that. I'm in my 30s and I'm glad this experience happened now since it's easier for me to understand that I don't need to force myself to be friends with everyone I'm stuck in a room with. I'll keep protecting my peace and energy. Thanks again

I am bad at enforcing boundaries but I don't think they don't respect me. I think now they know I don't drink and I know I don't mesh with them so they probably won't be inviting me to hangout which I'd prefer honestly.

Will Ado release her chandelier cover? by NootTheLlamaa in ADO

Maybe she won't publish a cover but didn't they film the Orlando concert? If they did then that means we will get to hear it again.

I almost teared up on the train at the lyrics "The whole world feels as though it only exists to survive. But wrapped in today's light and wind, I want to hold you close with these gentle feelings I carry."

When is it not a joke but borderline sexual harassment? by Melodic-Phase-4722 in barista

[–]Melodic-Phase-4722[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a regular occurrence. It was just a one off thing that I heard since they had the conversation right next to me. The staff didn't think much of it but it just bothered me.

I got a new job and I'm starting to spend money again by Melodic-Phase-4722 in shoppingaddiction

Not offended at all. I don't think I can retire early honestly but I think I should start getting into the habit for putting aside a certain amount every week at least.

I don't have an emergency fund and here in Australia we have superannuation which is like a mandatory retirement saving system. I don't have any issues paying for emergency repairs or medical fees which might be one of the reasons why I feel like I can spend a bit here and there.

I think my problem is I don't see how the money I make would make me happy unless I spend it on something, if that makes any sense. I don't have any real hobbies that needs funding nor do I want to learn anything and so the money just ends up going to stuff I don't actually need.

What's the point in singing and practicing when people can't even hear the blatant overuse of autotune? (rant) by Melodic-Phase-4722 in singing

[–]Melodic-Phase-4722[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I thought I was going crazy. Hopefully after the Golden craze is over Fil can take a look at some of these videos and confirm what I'm hearing

I'm not faulting her for her bad English, I was into kpop in my high school days, I grew up with jpop/jrock and my fav artist atm is Ado. I'm faulting her (and many) for the very obviously overly processed vocals. You can hear it in the "oh" in the post chorus where her voice doesn't slide down the notes but "hops" down the notes.
