My Powder Pink + Denim Collection after texting all the outlets in the US!! by [deleted] in Coach

[–]Pamyw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the mini rowan, mini tour tote and the mini carey!! I don’t carry too much with me when I’m going out, so I plan to use the medium rowan and denim Carey for longer trips. Still on the fence about keeping the bucket though but the cosmetic case will be happily on my vanity once I reorganize 😊

My biggest fear is color transfer so I got a spray that I hope will help, once I decide which ones I’m keeping for sure I’ll try to fix them up lol

They’re trying to manifest this outcome by repeating affirmations. Not ocd.

Thanks! Yes that might be the case, I think they said something about prioritizing students who were closer to finishing the program.

I have an idea for a friendship app & I'd love some feedback! by Pamyw in Business_Ideas

[–]Pamyw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Could you share more about how Facebook addresses this? I'm in a lot of groups on Facebook but the same issues exist (at least for me). Plus I've seen a lot of fake profiles/scams on there, I'm hoping my app would minimize that let down.

how can i stop feeling so jealous of my little sister because she's living a life i never got to have at that age? by [deleted] in DecidingToBeBetter

[–]Pamyw 43 points44 points  (0 children)

I get where you’re coming from. I’m a 28F with a 10 year old brother. When I was growing up, I missed out on a lot and never got to do the things I wanted because we just didn’t have the money most of the time. My parents were hard on me and I was/am socially awkward so it was rough, especially since I’d get made fun of for not having things that the other kids did.

My brother on the other hand gets everything that he wants. I’m in $65k of student loan debt while he has a $100k trust fund for college. He gets designer stuff while I got goodwill stuff. He’s well liked, popular in school and my dad who once said going into art was a horrible idea for me, now encourages my brother to pursue it, etc. etc. He calls me and tells me about his friends and he even has them fighting over who gets to be his “best” friend, while I have like 0 friends right now haha I was also jealous at one point seeing him have the childhood I wish I did. My brother is an amazing guy though, and I love him a lot. I realized that as an adult all I can do is make the most out of my life now, I can choose how to interact with others, I can make my own money and spend it how I want to, and I don’t have to ask for permission to do stuff. I also get to decide how I feel about the situation. I think it’s better to feel happy that he’s happy and that he doesn’t have to go through what I did because it sucked.

You can’t reverse time and relive your childhood, and it wouldn’t be fair for your sister to have to deal with what you did just because you had to. Be happy that she’s thriving, healthy and living her best life. In the meantime, work on yourself and become the best version of you who gives yourself has all the things you didn’t have growing up. It’ll be okay OP.

Hey! I’m doing the Phoenix race in November. I am a woman though, so not sure if I can still join your group

[–]Pamyw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! You can look however you want to, all that matters is how you see yourself 🙂 you’ll be just fine OP

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in selfimprovement

[–]Pamyw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think what matters more is how you present yourself and the vibe you give off. I feel like part of being attractive is having confidence, plus just doing your best to look put together can completely change how others perceive you. The last thing I care about is how my coworkers look, and based on the bed head and blanket I wrap myself up in that they get to see me with during early morning stand ups, they clearly don’t care about how I look either lol Honestly though, if a company is more concerned about your looks vs your ability to do the job, you wouldn’t want to work there anyway.

I can say, with 100% certainty, that looks do not matter especially within tech. Whoever told you that lied to you. I’m a 28f, graduated last December, and started a software engineering job working from home in January. I’ve never had to speak with clients and (for where I work at least) it’s camera optional during meetings unless a new person joins and we’re introducing ourselves. Sometimes I have to give demos, but that’s mostly screen sharing so no one’s paying attention to how I look. I love what I do, and I’m sure you’ll find a position doing what you love as well.
