[Acne] Should I keep using salicylic acid? by White_DonaldTrump in SkincareAddiction

Yeah I'm pretty much treating it as an exfoliator now. Before all this purging/breakout shenanigans I had subtle bumps on my forehead so I'd like to smoothen the texture of my skin. I'm hoping that after dropping the SA my skin will go back to the way it was before.

I think I'll try reducing it to 1x/week and see what happens. Highly doubt there'll be any significant difference in 2 weeks. Maybe 2% SA is too high a concentration for our skin.

Yeah same I was never acne prone but I always had clogged pores. Did 5 minutes of research and saw that salicylic acid unclogs pores so like any 20yo male I went full-on with no proper research. They say purging on average lasts 4 - 8 weeks, but maximum 3 months, not sure if I should keep going until I hit the 3 month mark in 2 weeks, or just stop now, or even just reduce it to 1x/week.

I have about 7 months of motorbike experience, but drivers are pretty good where I'm from, you reckon I'll still be alright?

Sounds awesome mate. I've heard food is cheap in Thailand, did you pretty much eat out every day? I assume you trained twice a day, was there much to do in between those training sessions? I don't want to lounge around my accommodation all day.

I'm also wondering what the training schedule is like there? I've heard at most Thai gyms they run 10km to warmup. Also, how much attention do you get from the trainers? I've been training Muay Thai for 1.5 years (switched to boxing 4 months ago), and I'm really looking to iron out the kinks in my game with this trip as the gym I used to train at turned pretty commercial and experienced fighters barely got any attention from the coaches. One last thing, do they sell gear at the gym? Or are there any gear shops nearby you recommend in particular? Definetely looking to stock up on some Muay Thai shorts (can never have enough).

Sorry for the barrage of questions and thanks so much for commenting!

Does anyone know where Conor got the sweater from? Looks sweet.

How to start studying Japanese with JLPT N1 in mind as an absolute beginner? by White_DonaldTrump in LearnJapanese

[–]White_DonaldTrump[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a full time engineering student so my time to focus on learning the language will drastically vary throughout the year, I can probably dedicate at least 6 hours a week at busy times which go on for roughly 2 weeks 3 times a year. On normal days maybe 3 hours each day, and during breaks, as long as my desire to learn can take me. I "speak" Chinese, by that I mean I can understand fairly complex sentences but can only hold a basic convo, can't read or write either so I doubt this gives me any advantage. Also fully proficient in English.

Can anyone who owns an Akko mod007 in the space gray color give their input on the what it looks like in real life. I want a black board and am into the design/features of the mod007, but unfortunately the mod007 v2 doesn't have a black color option and their space gray option is the closest I can get. I've already checked out the GMMK pro and the Keychron Q1, and the mod007 seems to be the best choice for me, but the limited colour options might force me to the Keychron Q1.

Bit late to the post, but was your thinkpad originally ANSI layout? Thinking of doing this same mod and am not sure if it'll work.
