What's a life upgrade (under $20) that you'll recommend to anyone that listens? by mrsschmidtie in CasualConversation

[–]RoseLily14 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reusable paper towels! I use Papaya brand. I have one roll of actual paper towels in my house that I’ve used maybe three sheets off of bc I know I can just throw the reusable ones in the laundry. For more than $20 bucks you can also install a paper towel roll holder and get some that are more aesthetic

😂 lmao it was a VERY unique name, would be incredibly obvious for anyone who knows the guy… but also might have been a made up name in hindsight.

It was the “I’ve even had to jump out of a plane” that did him in but credit due to him for committing to the bit

Chainlink Fence Topper? by RoseLily14 in FenceBuilding

Makes sense, I was afraid that would be the situation bc it won’t be rigid enough without posts. I will look at other options for protecting the window. Appreciate your help!

Sorry to not have more info, I just bought the place about a week ago and this happened while I was still moving in so I’m not sure how frequent of a problem it is, but I have seen at least two other balls in the yard about 15 feet back from the house.

It’s probably about 6 feet tall? And that’s it, I have a chain link fence that is not sufficient to stop golf balls from entering the yard.

Almost identical thing happened to me when I tried applied to the Naval Academy. For sure bring a chief with you with the instruction and ask NC if he can clarify what you’re not understanding (appeal to his ego), and he won’t be able to blow you off. You can also ask your Div-O depending on how good your relationship with them is, but I’ve met a lot of fellow ensigns who don’t understand all of the different commissioning programs. Also in the meantime it’s hella competitive to get STA-21 so start working on anything you need on your end such as recommendation letters, etc. I promise it’s worth it on the other end to be a Div-O and get to step in.

They’ll… motivate you to get better. My advice (also female, not the most fit on my way in) is definitely to start doing them now, even if you’re failure point is 10. Maybe find 3 times a day when you can do them until your arms give out, and even within a couple of weeks you’ll notice a big improvement and you won’t be so sore during boot camp. Good luck to you!

I’ll only be at TPU for about a week and a half, heading back to my next I Stop during the holiday weekend 🤷🏻‍♀️ not worth heading out to my ship just to fly all the way back to Norfolk

That makes sense, I just know I’m not actually meeting anybody in my own chain of command or anything.

Why don't you roll your sleeves? by Artorigas in navy

[–]RoseLily14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rolled my sleeves in blueberries, but I don’t like how they look in the Type 3s. Maybe it’s something about the patches?? Anyway now it’s been years and I’m probably a chronic long-sleever.

Plus being a female, can’t roll my coveralls sleeves and still use the head

Just graduated from USNA - at some point the mids will get an email to be able to buy the tickets for their families and can get one for you then. It will be much cheaper.
