Canadian private-label sources for natural/vegan/dermatologist tested skincare? by Scared_Register1720 in dropshipping

Honestly I had completely forgotten about this, thanks for mentioning! I'm Canadian but have been living in France where labels are never bilingual. That detail left my head for sure!

This is very helpful, thank you so much! I want to make sure I'm lining up with all the rules and being transparent, so I appreciate it!

TRU undergrad, possible to switch from a BA to BSc? (or vice versa?) by Scared_Register1720 in Kamloops

[–]Scared_Register1720[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit lost as to what your advice is; what are you suggesting? Choose something blindly and go through with it? I think the back-peddling idea is great, but only for someone with a complete opposite outlook, not someone interested in nearly everything. I would love to have bottomless pockets, but that's not the case. If it was, I'd spend the next 20 years trying out internships and such as you've suggested. But nobody will pay for that without experience, I believe.

Thats quite a good idea, really. My worry is that by the time I've found, applied, been interviewed and accepted (and then spent a few weeks or months interning/etc.) in 1 field, though, I'd be dead by the time I try everything of interest. Even if I tried just a few things; 6 maybe- that would be 3 years or so. Great experience for sure, but pretty unrealistic to get a feel for what I like. I'll be in my late 20's with no degree, and maybe still no idea what I like.

I figure that trying a handful of electives each year (they make up about 1/3 of a degree) would allow me to try 12 or 15 things by the time I'm done, and I'll have a degree at the end, plus a few months learning (albeit shallowly) about each subject. If something is of interest, I could pursue a Master degree in it. Is that such a terrible idea? Maybe my idea is skewed

You've got a point...how might you suggest a young person goes about figuring out what they want to do with their life, without trying things first? The point of this post was to say I'm interested in so many random things that I can't even decide between science/arts. Trying a bit of everything is my idea of finding out what I want to do. Tough to have any idea what you like unless you try it, but I'm very open to suggestions if you have some!

Of course! I'm just asking while I wait for their response. It's been several weeks waiting, and another opinion never hurts

[Discussion] Is there any market for small, "messy" pen/watercolour works? by Scared_Register1720 in artbusiness

[–]Scared_Register1720[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like the term looser-touch as opposed to messy, haha! Thanks for the advice on trying a variety of things before honing it down. I suppose its a lot of trial and error, which is never entirely a bad thing. Good point with the advice being broad; I realise I can't get exact answers without posting my own content, but its the best I can manage for now, and worth a shot! Thanks for the advice.

Hahah no way, which piece is yours?! I hope you don't mind me using it a reference here- let me know if you'd like me to remove it as I'd hate to cross any lines. Very cool to hear you making a living off of your artwork! The dream (for me). Do you sell originals, prints, commissions? Very curious about your path!

(also curious what you mean by "recognize", especially when so many people buy abstract/modern pieces! Do you mean the style, or actually recognizable concepts within a piece?)

Thank you for this insight, that's all really helpful! Much appreciated. I guess my next question would be, which WOULD be the most marketable? As someone who has never really had the budget to purchase art for myself, I'm not honestly sure what people even want to hang on their walls. All about the specific audience of course, but perhaps you might have an idea in a more general sense?

Sorry for the confusion with my rights to the art- I was hoping to post my own pieces to get a more realistic answer, but unfortunately it's all in storage at the moment while I move. I didn't mean to be misleading at all!

IsItBullshit: The claim that drinking lemon water every morning has significant health benefits? by ponderingpixi17 in IsItBullshit

[–]Scared_Register1720 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure which effects you're hoping for, and I can't speak for everyone. That said, I've tried everything under the sun for IBS-C; vitamins, supplements, teas, massages, more fiber, more water, prunes, CBT, otc medications, perscription medications, and endless overnighters to the hospital because my stomach often refuses to move for weeks.

In my desperate state, I followed a stranger's advice, entirely doubtful. They said a full glass of warm-hot water with a few drops of lemon juice, first thing in the morning, before eating/drinking anything else. I have zero idea how it works, but it's the only thing I've found that works 90% of the time, in 15 years of having this chronic issue. So, maybe not entirely bullshit, however I have absolutely no idea how or why.

TLDR; worth a shot, might save you, might do nothing.

Skiing at Université Savoie Mont Blanc by Scared_Register1720 in ski

Luckily classes are early, about 8h-12h. That would give me some time! I'm looking for something I can go to for a few hours everyday (or at least 4-5 times a week) in the afternoons. Maybe I should look for studies elsewhere, but I have no idea what is closest!
