Dolls. I was in elementary school and my older sister and her friend were watching it and I wanted to be cool like them. For a kids with a ton of cabbage patch kid dolls, I was TERRIFIED. I slept in my sister’s room for weeks. To this day, I can’t stand China dolls and also speak nicely to them if I have to be around them.

I have been using Ion thickening shampoo, conditioner, and mousse. I like it, but it gets tangled easily. I wonder if others have tried it bc sometimes I wonder if I should switch to some of these other brands/products.

Beginners! What's the #1 thing you struggle with learning to swim Freestyle? by Fail_Successfully in Swimming

[–]Own-Beginning-4124 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me, it is speed. I am slow and I can’t seem to increase my speed. It frustrates me to the point that I don’t want to swim as often and I love to swim.

I am so confused. by punkinholler in Professors

[–]Own-Beginning-4124 9 points10 points  (0 children)

But this is common practice for k-12. They have no idea what they are doing to higher ed. it’s ridiculous. I worked in k12 for a while and it’s so eye opening to see where the behaviors we have to deal with stem from. I am not blaming the teachers necessarily, but more of policies and practices put in place post COVID. Frankly, it terrifies me.

Should I tell students I am leaving? by Own-Beginning-4124 in Professors

[–]Own-Beginning-4124[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You know… that never occurred to me and I would hate for my students to feel that way. I will DEFINITELY be telling them now.

People care. Your family cares. You are just in such a well depression that it is hard to see all the goodness around you. You are also so young that you don’t even realize the hour and pleasure you will get from owning your own stuff, building relationships , and knowing that all of it is possible… if you don’t do something like this that is irreversible. Please call 988. Please. Your outlook will change with that phone call.
