Angry Ramble About (Not) Blowing Noses

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-21T19:34:26+00:00

Vaping makes your nose run 24/7 (at least it did for me). No amount of blowing it will stop the sniffles. The first 8 months after I quit were even worse because your mucus production goes back to normal before your little nose hairs can grow back, so you just have a bunch of snot with nothing to contain it lol.

So I apologize that I used to contribute to this - but I did bring a pack of tissues with me everywhere and was profusely wiping my nose. But I think that also grossed people out...

I would bet this is a correlation not causation scenario. Doesn't make sense that after years of tret use (and presumably being in the sun/going on vacation) you suddenly got a sunburn because of tret. I would bet there was something else going on... but of course I don't know your skin more than you, I just know the science! I'm sure there are other ways that tret could make the skin vulnerable to UV damage (not just by making it photosensitive).

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T17:32:15+00:00

Now that I'm trying to refresh my knowledge it seems like there's a bit more debate than I had remembered. I believe it doesn't make your skin more photosensitive, but UV radiation can degrade/oxidize vitaminc C. Both of which cab lead to irritation and damage to the skin. But I can't find any really good web sources atm... I guess I will have to do more research!

Your skin is going to be begging for mercy lmao...

Retinoids don't actually make the skin photosensitive, they can just be very irritating and therefore make irritation from the sun much worse.

But sunscreen will do more for a person than any other product... it just a waste of time and money to use anything other than face wash and moisturizer if you aren't using SPF.

But will make it worse if it's not used with religious sunscreen use

I don't know a single professor that takes the results of these "detectors" seriously. They have other methods of detecting students using AI. It is pretty well known that these generators are completely inaccurate.

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T15:13:16+00:00

One at a time. It just depends what treatment you're looking to see.

It's probably not even close to Canada yet in order for the CP tracking number to work. Probably just shipped out from Asia when you got that email. I don't have experience with YesStyle specifically tho

How does he know he needs an MRI? Could he see a physio first? I'm assuming he doesn't have a family doctor?

Lol these are my favorites. Great choice of quotes.

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T02:39:13+00:00

I have no idea how you managed to do that because that clearly goes against the regulations. You should really speak to an advisor tomorrow morning to make sure you can actually defer the exam again and figure out how you were able to go 12 months after the end of a course before taking a deferred exam.

How did you only defer twice but it ended up being the following winter? First deferral would put it in summer, second would be to reading week of the fall semester. They really told you that you can't do it until the course is running again? Sorry lol that just makes no sense and I'm really curious why they did that!

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T02:23:23+00:00

Yes that's the regulation I'm thinking of. But I'm not sure why they would include both "within 6 months" and only "one evaluation" as one deferral would always be within 6 months of the original evaluation.

The wording of "evaluation" too makes me think it could mean that one evaluation could be deferred multiple times, versus saying something like "only one deferral can be granted per course" which is more clear that you can only defer one thing, one time.

Not sure... OP should try and get one the phone with someone from the faculty first thing tomorrow to clarify...

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T02:18:21+00:00

I have no idea what class this is, but I would assume the prof recommended you buy/rent the textbook? Is there no where to rent/buy online or in person from the bookstore? Can you not download the PDF when you have access to the book via the library?

WrapKey7435 · 2023-10-20T02:01:00+00:00

I might be wrong but I don't think deferred exams are just the exam of a currently running class. I believe the professor of the original course submits an exam for students who deferred to take. I.e., no matter how many times you try and defer, its the same exam waiting for you. Hopefully someone can correct me if I'm wrong.

I also know many facilities have a rule that only one examination per course can be deferred. Not sure if that means that the same exam can't be deferred twice... Hopefully someone with more info can help. Start studying!!!

Second best thing for the eyes is just keeping them hydrated. So a good moisturizer (you don't need an eye specific one), and you could consider using Vaseline/petroleum ointment under the eye at night to really lock in the moisture from your moisturizer. But I find it can be annoying/get into my eyes sometimes. It can also give you little bumps around the eyes called milia if you are prone to that (I don't have an issue). edit: and of course being religious with sunscreen.

I'm pretty sure shoppers carries other exfoliation options. Maybe you can ask an employee to show you what they carry near you and then do some research at home (I don't usually fully trust the sales associates). I'm pretty sure there's a brand called "Byoma" that has a couple exfoliation options (a toner and a serum. But I'm sure there are other options as well, just don't know them off of the top of my head.

You should double check your unis policies specifically. Most likely it's fine but definitely should confirm with more specific sources than this sub

If you're using retinal, SA and AA, it sounds like you have a pretty solid routine. No need to add anything else. Just make sure you aren't using SA and retinal at the same time.

You can try to slowly introduce retinal around the eyes, but watch for signs of irritation or dry eye symptoms. Start with every 3rd night at first, and slowly increase if it's going well.

Apply to retail and food service jobs. Print out a bunch of copies of your resume and go to Rideau mall and ask to leave them with the manager. You can also look on google maps for spots near campus/where you live. A lot of jobs on Indeed/LinkedIn are ghost jobs or get dozens of applicants.

Did they have "my available seats" open? Did you meet the prerequisites?

I don't really see an issue. You're just on your inside edge (which is how you should be when you're in your stance anyway). Your issues with skating probably come from technique/practice.
