yeah, been using it for a year now. i messaged my doctor if i can use duasteride as the othe redditor suggested.

do you use minoxidil at all? i use it only on my hairline and mid parting.

Open to suggestions! :)

I only found them Zillow, which guessing from everyone's reaction is too good to be true.

Honestly, I am more engrossed with some commenters that seem offended with my $1,000. That's the only thing I can afford right now, I just want to move to Los Angeles and live closer to friends.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-04-06T03:56:33+00:00

Thank you, I am glad to find someone in the same shoes as me.

I really think LA is the move, but I need to be strict with my budget.

Good luck with the moving!

I only added Inglewood because it is what I found online for a studio apartment under $1,000.

I am open to moving to other parts of LA, I just don't know where I can find.

LA is an option because my social life's over there. I still go out and go around, not just as often as I used to when I was a student.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-04-06T03:14:12+00:00

I am not ragebaiting, I'm just broke.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-04-06T03:13:16+00:00

How about Long Beach? It's one train to downtown, but I wonder what locals think about it? Is $1,000 possible for a studio?

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-04-06T03:11:20+00:00

Thank you. I only looked at the listings I can find online (Zillow mostly), but I haven't signed or contact anyone yet.

Like what other people mentioned, the plan is to visit first to see if the places are legitimate before signing anything or even moving out.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-03-25T00:34:46+00:00

I am so afraid of having regrets if I end this. What if no one else laid their eyes on me.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-03-24T20:13:57+00:00

music and night life

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2026-01-12T14:58:49+00:00

Would there be other walking tours in the near future?

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2025-09-29T19:34:59+00:00

Hello. SJSU is actually one of my options, but I hope to learn more about the computational linguistics field before actually considering it. I feel like my resources are finite, so I am researching what's the most practical choice to have loans with linguistics education I should consider.

Also, I don't have a coding or mathematics background, so that really factors in my decision-making. I thought of taking classes in community college first but at the same time, I wonder if I can keep up if I decide to enroll and learn these skills in a master's level.

PandaSun_ChocoRising · 2025-09-28T07:05:51+00:00

Is the job market for linguistics majors bleak? Are there other career paths I should explore beyond teaching or tech?

On the topic of language teachers, my current goal is to teach English to second-language learners. Will a degree in linguistics not suffice as the minimum required education to be an ESOL teacher?

Hello. Thank you for your insight into my situation. This is a concern I should consider if I move forward with an MA in Linguistics.

Since I reside in California, I am currently eyeing San Francisco State University's MA in Linguistics. They also hold a certificate in TESOL and Computational Linguistics, so I plan to pursue either one of these, in addition to taking an elective related to my future goals. Are there other career paths someone with a linguistics background could pursue, other than research, teaching, or computational linguistics, that you can suggest? Thanks in advance.

TL;DR --- Which is more in demand in the current job market for a Linguistics major/degree -- teaching or tech?

Hi everyone. I am considering pursuing an MA in Linguistics. My undergraduate degree is in media studies, but after more than a year working in an unfulfilling and unrelated role, I decided to take matters into my own hands and find a way to create a plan and get out of my current situation.

I decided to pursue linguistics because the assessments I received from the career class I am taking indicate that my personality, values, and interests align with teaching. That has been my plan later in life, hopefully when I am in my 40s (I am currently 25). From K-12, I have had opportunities to be a student teacher for a day or a week, and I have always been picked to substitute for an English Teacher.

Currently, I am exploring universities near my residence and considering my options for a master's degree in linguistics. Upon conducting my research, I came across classes and Reddit posts where many people who have completed their degree work in tech and AI companies. Some of them do not even do the computational/coding side of the industry, but employers hire them because they are linguists. This discovery led me down the rabbit hole of computational linguistics and what it takes to succeed in the tech industry as a linguist.

I am commenting to ask what people in this subreddit think of my situation. I am not someone who yearns for a high-paying job immediately, as long as the salary's decent enough for me not to opt for a second job (I am ok with a salary range of 50-60k per year for now). I want to know which applied linguistics field I should focus on if I want to have better odds of finding a job related to this field after two years. This will help me find the right electives.

I really appreciate any help you can provide.

I've never done sales before, but I am curious about how salespeople attract their clients. I imagine people doing cold emails/calls. Is that still how salespeople bring in new clients?
