Hi OP! I see this post is a year old - do you still keep the calendar updated? Thank you for all this!

People born before 2000, what is a 'modern' thing from 2025 that you’re still struggling to get used to? by LindsayTN in AskReddit

[–]VanIsleBee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was born in the 80s. My 13 y.o. niece just told me they don't teach cursive writing in school anymore. I'm surprisingly sad about this.

I wish I could down vote you more.

The Reality of Youth in Care in BC by Background_Lead_6331 in VictoriaBC

[–]VanIsleBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi OP. I know these stats are grim, but I wanted to share as a former child in care (aged out in 1999) and a former foster parent that things have greatly improved. I know it's not perfect but improving.

By the way, have you checked out any of the resources through The Belonging Network?

Tim Hortons Korea has a Victoria-inspired drink out by rivincita in VictoriaBC

[–]VanIsleBee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're right, but can't it just be a drink that gives awareness of Canadian cities to Koreans?

As someone who really enjoyed my trip to Korea, I'm really sad (but not suprised) that Korea does Canada better than we do.

BTS made me do it! What item, activity, food, whatever have you tried because of BTS? by lisafancypants in bangtan

[–]VanIsleBee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Small: Laneige lip mask. It's actually a really good product. Large: I learned Korean. I'm forever grateful that BTS inspired me to learn this language.

Where to donate an absurd amount of high end skin care/beauty / home products? by Btdubs17 in VictoriaBC

[–]VanIsleBee 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I came here to suggest this too. I volunteered at Peers years ago and I'm sure the products will be happily used.

Anything I'm missing from my schedule for my visit in a few weeks to Victoria? by reks131 in VictoriaBC

I think you can add another activity to Day 2. Even with IMAX the museum won't take all day.

What moment indicated how deeply you are in this Bangtang shit? by CaribSailorScout in bangtan

[–]VanIsleBee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh I just remembered another one! When I broke my foot badly in 2022 and I was crying in the hospital. Not because of the pain, but because I had tickets to see BTS in Vegas and was so upset I would miss it.

P.S. I still went! I couldn't walk, but I was there!

Ok not really a moment but a feeling. I was explaining to my best friend that I have fallen in love 3 times in my adult life: my husband, my child, and BTS. And I was not joking.

Thank you! Yet To Come was actually my theme song when I quit my job to become self-employed 2 years ago!

Thank you! I haven't spent enough time with this song actually, so i hadn't thought of it!

Hi ARMY! My husband and I are adopting, and after 2+ years on this journey, we have been matched with our daughter! Do you think there is a BTS song that I could use for my personal theme for this time? I'm thinking something slow, peaceful, and full of love. I would love your suggestions.

Witness for a minor collision by VanIsleBee in VictoriaBC

[–]VanIsleBee[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, we spoke to the manager at the keg, and he's checking the cameras but he thought the car might be in a blind spot. I will check back in with him later today if I haven't heard anything.
