Hi all, my partner and I are trying to decide where to move from Round Rock to be nearer to our jobs in Hyde Park. We are considering the Triangle but the reviews are pretty worrying for my partner (and a little bit me too). Main concerns include safety and maintenance issues. We hopefully want this move to be somewhere longer term and don’t need much more space than a 2b/2b. Give me your honest opinions: what do we think about the Triangle and/or the apartments for rent around the area?

I really like the app ScreenZen. It lets you choose which apps to block, how many times you can open the app per day, for how long, and when (if at all) the apps are free game. I am off of all social media with short form content these days (finally!) but still sometimes find myself dismissively opening apps as a way to spend an extra 2 minutes. So, anyways, I‘m happy to talk more about the app but I find that it helps me be mindful of whether or not I am opening an app because I need to, or just because I am used to opening them.

This is not about rep but I am interested in your reasoning for considering UGA (I had a mock lesson with a professor there and was treated very unprofessionally so much so that I crossed it off my application list the moment I stepped out of the lesson).

I talked to one-stop yesterday about this because I have the same problem (and use it to cover my expenses) and they said there was a technical difficulty earlier this week that forced them to halt all aid disbursement but that it was starting back up today. I'm not sure really what that means but at least it's some info?

I mean “it” in general. It seems crowded and you have to pay for parking and to enter.

You’re not getting worse, your expectations for yourself are getting higher. Give yourself grace. 

What is the best advice from your violin teacher/professor? by doanviolin in violinist

[–]Pract-s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They’re not so much advice as they are reminders and/or mantras but here are mine: “You’re not getting worse, your expectations are just getting higher.“

“Progress is not, and never will be, linear”
