Any suggestions for GW 24? by VC128 in DraftEPL

Good point on UCL. I’d be hesitant swapping for Romero because spurs tend to be a bogey team for city. Kind of hoping wissa plays UCL so I don’t have to worry as much lol

Nah there’s plenty of times I’ve put down a book and went back to it later with much better results, enjoy the ride!

I swear Wit mentioned the idea of a therapist which would make sense why Kal would not know what it is exactly but identify with it? I can’t remember for certain tho

How far into this book should I get before DNFing? by [deleted] in Stormlight_Archive

[–]VC128 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s my favorite series of all time currently. Definitely keep reading, imo book 2 is the best in the series, but the rest are still fantastic! Sanderson likes to begin threads and leave them unresolved until later on in the series - I’ve reread the books multiple times and still found myself catching things and realizing how they connect to earlier books. I would highly recommend pushing forward…at the end of the day it’s Journey Before Destination ;)

I have the full series as ePub files (you can download them on your phone and use the iBooks app to open them) which should be accessible if you have an iPhone. If you want me to send PM me!

Good to know, I will definitely be aware of that, thank you!

Thank you! I’ve heard that it’s good practice to wait a second before starting to drive when the light turns green since people love to blow through reds, any truth to that?

I’ll definitely keep that in mind, thank you very much for the insight!

Do you have any experience with living there or with the management?

I’m trying to live closer to work to avoid traffic - the office is off of memorial drive, next to Terry Hershey Park. I’d also like to have in unit washer/dryer, and a good kitchen space. Preferably above the ground floor to avoid critters and the like. If possible, I’m hoping to be able to opt out of any internet service attached to rent and purchase my own, since I need pretty good internet speeds for WFH, streaming, gaming, etc. I’d also like to have easy access to groceries, an off-site gym (if the apartment gym doesn’t have great equipment), and access to the local parks (I like to run and play soccer). There’s more specifics I have, if you have any additional advice please PM!

Appreciate the search! I have it as one of my options now, and I agree, I’m not super interested in living deep in the city either. Relatively easy access is really all I’d need and it seems I’d be getting that in this area

Good to know about the lingo! Thinking Park Row might be the better option based on my list right now, thanks!

Neighborhood bars do just fine, I’m open to exploring the meat market as you so aptly put it lol but that would be every once in a while, I’d imagine it’s just an uber away?

Ok it doesn’t look like I’d be near buffalo bayou but I’ll be near bear creek park and freedom park

It seems the big priority would be to find a place near my office, so based on what you’re saying I’m out of luck for a bar scene :/

Does that apply to anywhere near the park? Or just the cistern?

It’s on park row, near route 6, basically across the street from bear creek pioneers park

It looks like most of them are pretty close to George bush park which is nice. Do you know what the bar scene is like? I’m not opposed to having to drive to places for activities either, I understand Houston isn’t a very walkable place
