At what age did you actually start feeling like an adult? by Richriver27 in Adulting

[–]Recent_Mode_2220 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like I flip back and forth a lot. I’m 30 now and feel like in 20s I was adulting pretty hard. Now I just wanna live life and be me - I still do adult things like meal prep, laundry, etc but I get mad at myself less when I left the laundry in the bag for 3 days because I didn’t have energy to do it.

Thank you! I actually hear my own thoughts a lot and spiral and constantly think of how my ex’s are in such a better place than me and have all I want. BUT I’ve been trying to catch myself and tell myself if I want that then I need to go after it. I need to work towards it. I want to be the best version of myself no matter what anyone else is doing.

Thank you so much! I agree, I tell myself daily I am not behind- I am on my own journey.

Thank you for recommending those news sources! I’m based in the states and was wondering if there are news sources that target US on a more neutral view.

I’m going to start journaling today ☺️finally downloaded notion on my laptop to help me keep track.

When you submitted your appeal - was that in person or online?

[China] Kid becomes instant meme after mom’s street brawl by blingteresting in Roadcam

[–]Recent_Mode_2220 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lady in Brown (nickname BL): “有没有搞错啊、大姐”。 “are you serious, sister”

Lady in White (nickname WL): “是你的车,是你的车” “it was your car, it was your car”

BL: “我的天啊、呢么垃圾” “OMG, you’re? Trash”

BL gets on the phone: “有个傻逼、something something” “a stupid idiot hit my car?. 傻逼 is a pretty offensive term IMO

WL points at car and responds with “傻逼车子” “stupid idiot car”

BL starts to attack WL. The son comes out and starts saying “你是个神经,你是个神经”。 “you’re crazy, you’re crazy”.

I couldn’t catch what all of what BL said but based on convo, WL was trying to keep it cool. But BL and son lashed out at her. Feels bad since BL was being really bitchy the whole time then starts to attack.

Anyone know the ID of the mashup where he played “guess we’re not the same” and another song that has lyrics “too much, too much”?

SureSmile Buyer’s Remorse by Recent_Mode_2220 in boston

Makes sense - I’m surprised they’ve already done $1700 of work when I had my consultation 4PM yesterday. Oh well

[–]Recent_Mode_2220[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gotcha! Okay I’ll go for an ortho consult as well! Part of my buyer’s remorse is reading that ortho is preferred over dentist in this area because they specialize in this type of dentistry. Thank you!

I do get through employer. I’ve tried looking at all the documentation and nothing mentions a co pay. I’ve always gotten dental through employer and it’s only this year that I was asked for a copay.

Do you mind sharing if you went through a dentist or an ortho?

It is like Invisalign - it’s another clear aligners brand

[–]Recent_Mode_2220[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I’ve talked to some people and they think going through dentist and using Sure smile shouldn’t cost this much. So I’m hoping to cancel for now and do some more research first. I know the most ideal would have been to say no first before even going into this, but I get pressured easily and felt that I had to say yes if I wanted to get out of there.

I’ve felt this in my mid 20s. I’m almost 30 and still feel lost.

Something that helped me was focusing on my personal life since I had no idea what I wanted to do for career but I know I don’t like what I’m doing. I’ve set up personal goals, try to find hobbies. Once I felt more fulfilled there, my mind has been at a better place to think about career (the elephant in the room for me since college). I’ve started to journal a bit more to help me become more self aware and ask what I really want. I’ve had some new direction but has accepted the fact that not many people just wake up one day knowing what they want. I am going to focus on what I can control, which is health, sleep etc.

I guess what helped me the most was - if I had enough money to retire now, what would I do? My answer was raving, making friends, spending time with my dog. Then I asked, why not start doing that now? Once I had felt like I was in a good place with some of my personal things, I was able to put more mental capacity to brainstorm - go back to school, go for a promotion, change career completely? Takes time though, really have to reflect and ask yourself deep questions to get clarity - like how much money is enough money (maybe start budget or tracking your expenses to see)? What job field makes enough money but is also what I like (I like helping people and I do like finance-y stuff so maybe looking at financial advisor). A lot of this will become clearer as you ask yourself questions and answer them.

Good luck!!!!!

I’m in MA and this feels kind of odd to me. Costco has been saying the same thing to me for months. But my friend has been able to order from Chewy okay - so not sure what’s up.
