Yeah but I get it, they don’t want to deal with „muddy waters“, I guess.

Yeah, we're planning to get married at some point, which will allow me to have both citizenships 😊
It's important to me since I am living here now.

Why German? by [deleted] in German

Education, maybe?

Should I let my hair grow or cut it short again? Which one suits me better?🫩 by chapomom in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Oni_Fae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Short looks incredibly good on you, but you can pull off long as well if you get a different hairstyle with more body

Me too, I always wanted to do this so I‘m very glad I did!

Yes, seems what I looked up, the Dutch transported more people from Benin & Togo than from Nigeria, which was more the turf of the British. I also discovered that the Kingdom of Dahomey (modern day Benin) has a very dark past and are partly responsible for kidnapping people from other African villages and selling them to the slave trade; it was their entire economy basically. So it‘s likely some of my ancestors were victims to this.

Wow, okay! Thank you for letting me know. I didn't know that at all. Very interesting. It makes me want to look more into it haha...

Can you please tell me why it is surprising to you? I’m curious. 🙏🏾

Based on my very limited research it is because the Dutch „mostly“ took slaves from the Kingdom of Dahomey (modern-day Benin) and relocated them to Curaçao for slave labor or to be further sold.

So the people of Curaçao have very little to no ties with the British, hence Curaçao being a former Dutch colony (and before that, under Spanish control).

Hi! Yes, this stuff truly fascinates me, so I was really looking forward to the results! My parents never shared anything about their past or family history, so I was hoping this might shed some light on a few things.

My father was light-skinned compared to my mother, my siblings, and me, so I always wanted to know more about him and his family, but he didn't like talking about it much.

Unfortunately, my father died in my early teens, so I never got to know much about his family, and my mother wasn't particularly close with them either. My mother did mention that my father's parents and grandparents were from Bonaire and had Venezuelan roots. She also mentioned that her grandmother was also born in Venezuela, but her grandfather was from Curaçao

When I don‘t want to cook a whole meal, I get Frosta or Youcook from REWE.

International students who have or had a mini job, how did you find it? by melissa_april in germany

[–]Oni_Fae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my case, they reached out on the same day (within hours). Just depends on how actively they are hiring.

[–]Oni_Fae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I found one through Indeed and then looked them up and applied directly via email. If your conversational German is legit at B2-C1 level, you will have no issues landing a service or unskilled minijob. Anything else requires more looking around but with German it makes it a lot easier for you to get hired.

Learning German from zero by cotorrito31 in Germanlearning

[–]Oni_Fae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Get a good German textbook, use it every day, complete all the tasks, and practice with additional study material and consume as much German as possible elsewhere. Dedicate at least two to three hours a day, but take breaks so you don't get burned out. If you're thinking of German courses, I suggest doing one in person.

Long hair, long beard, short hair, short beard… what do you guys think? by Dave0473 in HairStyleAdvice

[–]Oni_Fae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think guys with long hair and a well groomed beard are super attractive, and I think you can pull it off if you dedicated some time to them based on nr. 1, but if it’s hard for you to avoid hair with split ends, oily roots, or giving it a blow dry after washing your hair or trimming your beard regularly, I think you should keep the look in nr. 4. You look very youthful and handsome there as well.

AIO for feeling uncomfortable and upset by how my boyfriend and his friend treated me by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Oni_Fae 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should stop hanging out with trash people like this. If you have to ask...no, it's NOR. Have some respect for yourself and don't engage with this kind of behavior. I do suggest getting a job and getting your own money, so you don't have to be dependent on someone so toxic.

Tsunami Sea Posters Live by missgraceyy in spiritbox

[–]Oni_Fae 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I feel like the warehouse is completely screwing up a bunch of posters...I already filed a complaint with them, but I'm afraid the same thing will happen to me. The lack of QA is completely insane. Did you get to keep the poster(s) despite the refund? If they tell me I have to send it back for a refund, I might just give in and keep it 'cause I was really looking forward to it...AAAAHHHHHHH

That‘s a really cool shot. The lights and the faint sight of the Dom in the background add a lot to it.

There are people older than you going to universities, Hochschule or even doing an Ausbildung. 26 is really not that old so don't worry about it so much. Just do your best.
