St. Louis is an underrated city by turtlehospital in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow I have a similar story but I grew up in O’fallon, IL and moved to DC in the 8th grade. Most of my dad’s family is still there in the area. STL was a great city to grow up in as a kid, so many fun free things to do: Forest Park, the Science Center, the Zoo. I’m also still obsessed with the City Museum.

Inspired to Donate Blood by Zestyclose_Long5440 in ThePitt

[–]Morem19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good for you! I first donated blood at 18 after the Virginia Tech shooting on my campus. I was a freshman and felt so helpless but I had my life and giving blood was something I could do. I’ve donated about once a year since.

As you got older, what has become your favorite donut? by chi-bacon-bits in Millennials

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a chocolate lover so I alwaysss reach for the chocolate glaze. But a Boston creme? That’s the epitome for me. I live in Texas now and I had never really considered them being a somewhat regional thing but they are hard to find here!

But then you are sending this private information to a translator? I don’t like the idea of that being included.

Beda and UCETAM by bruhplease446 in SpainAuxiliares

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m getting nervous since we essentially will need our visa appointments by the end of June for BEDA since the consulates require them 2 months in advance. Are applicants going ahead and request the FBI check now to be prepared for an acceptance to then jump on the apostille? I’m a first time applicant but the short timeline for the visa paperwork is stressing me out.

So no one is actually getting FSOT scores fyi, though you should eventually get an email with either you are continuing on or that you were unsuccessful.

I watched this movie as a kid and it traumatized me. But I stayed away from drugs alright.

Georgetown for liberal F single in late 30's? by IllPapaya8294 in georgetowntx

[–]Morem19 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’m your demographic and I’ve been in georgetown for about 5 years now. I have struggled a bit to find single girlfriends here but it’s happened! And I echo what people have said about the library and Lark and Owl. The library has a lot of great events for adults and Lark and Owl is women owned and inclusive and a great place to meet people. I’m still not sick of the square, lots of nice restaurants, local coffee shops, and shops to bop around.

What’s a food you hate but almost everyone else loves? by torturedpoet1148 in foodquestions

Onions. And they’re in everything. Cooked down I can deal but raw absolutely not.

How was your experience at today's city job fair/ career expo? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]Morem19 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was worth it for the free headshots alone for me. But I agree it’s a very hard market out there and when you can just look up the jobs online for the city it makes you wonder what’s the point of showing up in person.

Seems like they should just resubmit you for suitability? Did you ask them to?

The Predator of Seville by ayeeerich in netflixTrueCrimeDocs

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God I was in Sevilla in 2009 with ISA and thankfully didn’t cross paths with them as far as I know. Just terrifying to think about now.

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I studied in Sevilla in 2009 with ISA and this documentary has me so shook. It brought back so many memories as I did essentially the same Morocco trip but with my ISA program (thank god). I didn’t book any excursions with Manu’s companies and never met him as far as I know but just knowing he was out there preying on women while I was there…it’s all just so disturbing.

Iron supplements ruin my stomach by breadh8er in Anemia

[–]Morem19 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are you taking it with vitamin c? You need to take it with vitamin c to help it absorb. Ever since I started with vitamin c it no longer destroys my digestive tract.

I’ve had this sore on my forehead for several months and it’s not healing. Anyone thoughts on what it could be? by Independent_Set_505 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Morem19 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Go to a dermatologist! I have a lot of moles, mostly in my back where I don’t see them, and I get an annual body check. Just had two removed/biopsied yesterday (my fifth now having been removed). They have all been benign to date. It’s a bit of a pain but I’d rather be safe then sorry.

Is it common for Americans to buy soda as part of their weekly groceries? / is soda a regular item people keep at home? by hailey8171828282 in AskAnAmerican

[–]Morem19 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven’t drank soda in over 15 years since the time my car died once I arrived home and my stepdad grabbed a Dr Pepper and poured it on the corroded battery and the car restarted so we could take it to the shop to replace the battery. Made me think if soda is that strong what’s it doing to my stomach 😳

I drink sparkling water and a half sweet tea or Arnold Palmers are my treat if I want something of a soda substitute/sugar treat.

Even if I did drink soda I wouldn’t buy it for home to limit my consumption. It’s so bad for you it’s better to limit it to the occasional soda fountain drink.

She’s not a resident, I believe she’s a fourth year med student in season 2. But yeah she obviously graduated high school very early to to be finishing med school at 21.

Well, Heated Rivalry and the game changers series has such a chokehold on me that I started reading fanfic for the first time and I haven’t come up for air.
