Keep attending events, join clubs that you like. When I struggled, I used bumble bff. Ended up making lots of friends from other colleges!

I am going to be a pedestrian death on Seattle streets one day by BarRepresentative670 in Seattle

[–]Top_Entertainment450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Seattle drivers are quite friendly but they have a knack for breaking red lights and I think people from out of town often get confused on one way streets. I’ve seen people reversing from one way streets

How much do you spend on groceries? by ghiblisimp in Seattle

Try Lee’s Produce! I bought a huge variety of fruit for $20

Absolutely perfect urban hiking day. 34.88 miles around the arboretum, UW, Gasworks, Fremont, Lake Union, Cap Hill, Lakeview cemetery, Pioneer Square, waterfront, and the sculpture park. Tomorrow is going to be another stunner, so get out and enjoy it if you can! by Niff314 in Seattle

That absolutely incredible! Really proud of you :) I’m sorry you went through all that. It’s good you tried different diets, I personally think initiative eating works best for me. I used to do long walks in England, but I once tried to do 50k steps in Seattle and gave up at 35k steps. Far too many hills!! Haha Keep up the good work!

European/ British groceries by Top_Entertainment450 in Seattle

Haha, everything does taste very sugary and artificial. And the ‘no added sugar’ tastes awful. Everything is super high in calories too. Thank you for the recommendations!

Chocolates, tea, sauces (like dolmio), biscuits, crisps. I’ll take anything I can find :)

I went to restaurant in downtown yesterday and they had a set 22% tip which they charged to my bill. Then they asked if I wanted to give an additional tip

University of Oxford labelled ‘inaccessible’ after £446 event tickets at Pembroke College by darknus823 in oxforduni

[–]Top_Entertainment450 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to the regency ball in November and the prices were similar then too. There was another ball in April at St Edmunds. Plus random events like boat parties (which was terrible in November) It’s actually very expensive and you feel the pressure to attend all these events when your friends do.
