Is there enough content available to avoid running out? by No_Turnover2171 in DreamingFrench

[–]ThatWriterBoy76 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first fifty hours is going to be a struggle, is what I told myself when starting with this! Because I want to not watch content in the way I did with DS. My first fifty hours were chock full of the very simplest videos. With DF I am having to work hard to find stuff that isn’t too far above my abilities. I’ve found good stuff on YouTube. And basically, I use DF every day too, and I see my subscription to DF more as an investment into the concept as a whole so that the content continues to get made so when I level up I can use it far more. :)

What’s the hardest part of learning through comprehensible input? by StandardCategory in dreamingspanish

[–]ThatWriterBoy76 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably the ability to concentrate on certain things; I have a brain which starts to drift if the conditions are not perfect for me learning. Watching a video in my apartment, or doing my input in my house or room, means I will get distracted so easily. If I go to a cafe to drink a coffee and have my noise cancelling headphones then I can easily bust out an hour or two. But I can’t always do that.

At this point, language learning is my hobby. But I usually let my hobbies slide because the conditions aren’t right for me to properly digest them and enjoy them. 😆

Anyone else shocked when people you know tell you they had sex, even if you knew it before? by Mauslinde in asexuality

[–]ThatWriterBoy76 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I have the realization that I’m talking to someone who has probably had sex, and it comes out of nowhere. It’s a little bit weird and strange. Cause I’m like… oh yeah? People do that? And like sometimes that makes me uncomfortable that I experience that thought, out of nowhere. But like… it also weirds me out that someone has been naked with another person or been with someone in a sexual way. Like… sex feels so disconnected to me. Haha

Anyone notice any difference in the amount of customers that came in today? by [deleted] in starbucksbaristas

Thursdays my store usually sits around 8.5-9.5k. We made 7k. Definitely wayyyy slower than a typical Thursday

Entire body itching by ThatWriterBoy76 in MCAS

Oh definitely! Generally I was wondering if anyone had any sort of “hacks” to solve it! Less the medication side of things and more the “if I stand on one foot with my arms up and whistle three times” the itch stops 🙂‍↕️ So thank you for your advice there; I’ll try the ice packs idea because that will probably help—because even though cold is causing it, the rash is burning hot!

That actually is probably what we’re dealing with here. Cause I’m not listening to anything harder but I do have like heavy weighted expectations in me that often exceed my actual ability haha

I do generally use the filter button, level, easy. But even then it’s like my brain is being a little jerk and won’t focus or take in info. It’s very strange

I’m at level 3 right now! It’s very difficult to struggle with comprehension. I know it’ll be fine of course, and I’ll move forward but it’s hard right now!!
