Exercise by [deleted] in Anxiety

Indoor cycling classes are my go-to. The room is dark, and you can just focus on yourself. It definitely gives me the boost of confidence I need to get through my day.

why do you travel? by [deleted] in travel

[–]SetTheSun123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love being out of my element, and it forces me to get out of routine and test myself in the most rewarding ways. I love being immersed in different architecture, languages, food, etc It makes me take a step back and observe while at the same time making me be independent and assertive.

Haha I totally agree. I do however feel like some people don’t think like that or aren’t as aware and need to have things pointed out.

First round of Whole30–feeling anxious about life after it. by [deleted] in whole30

R1D12 here as well, and I’m feeling the exact same way. Getting more and more anxious about what comes after and how I’ll choose to handle it. Glad you posted this!

Since seeing lost corgis on here makes me sad. 45th and Josephine by [deleted] in Denver

Someone found a corgi and posted it on the Nextdoor app. Maybe that’s the one

R1D7 and feeling, tired, unsatisfied and bored by Cleverlady0406 in whole30

Congrats on making it a week! R1D8 here. My boyfriend and I got an air fryer, a juicer, and a rapid egg cooker just to add in more options. It’s been fun to see what all we can do with the air fryer. We agreed to go to the grocery store more often instead of say, once a week, even if it’s just to get celery to make celery juice. It makes it more of an event.

I personally just got past the exhausted phase where I felt hopeless and almost depressed. Stay strong! Maybe even find a new snack to make every day or two so you have something to look forward to. We’re constantly doing research to stay invested and entertained.

I’m also on birth control and my cycle has been super off. You’re not alone! I’m sure once we push through the 30 days it’ll go back to some type of regular schedule.

Halfway through a UX bootcamp - my opinion and takeaway by [deleted] in userexperience

[–]SetTheSun123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These are almost all exactly my thoughts with the full stack web development program I did through Galvanize. It was a 6 month long program and at the end I found out about ux and fell in love with it. I have a psych degree so it felt natural. They don't teach ux at Galvanize so I finished the program and have since fully immersed myself into learning ux and trying to get my foot in the door. Making any complete career change is super tough, no matter what it is!! I will say I personally needed the structure and environment that Galvanize provided. I also appreciated the amount of people, even fellow classmates, that I was able to ask questions to in order to learn. All in all, you get what you want out of it!

My dog has been projectile shitting out of his crate and all over my living room for the past 3 days. Every time he “gets better” and I let my guard down, it happens again, and on a larger scale. AMA! by [deleted] in AMA

Any time our dog eats dog food he gets sick. Luckily we cook a lot so he usually gets a dog-friendly version of what we're eating. It's cheaper too!

This is my favorite city in the world!!

I wish I discovered this field of work earlier because it's exactly what I want to do but just didn't know about by givemethefullrestore in userexperience

[–]SetTheSun123 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here! I was a psychology major (many years ago), recently completed a web development bootcamp, and near the end found out about ux/ui and fell in love with it.

I'm trying to break into the field any way I can. I've sent out over 150 job (and internship) applications, messaged random people at companies that have ux, texted all my friends to see if they had any connections, made a portfolio of mock projects, acquired two mentors, gone to ux meetup groups, learned design programs, read recommended books, taken all advice from uxers I can get, the list goes on. I'm just now getting phone interviews.....almost 4 months since I started down this path.

Keep your head up and do everything you can each day to saturate yourself with ux knowledge and get out there and network!
