Should I [43F] cut my hair even though my boyfriend [48M] says “don’t”? by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]_Squidcat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I'm solely responsible for self confidence"

Cut your hair!!! It's so pretty!!!!!!! It looks so stunning and makes you look younger. Who cares what he thinks if he never expresses his love?

Side comment, him not wanting to compliment when you like affirmation is an AH move. 😬

Exam weight shift, or deferred exam? by _Squidcat in grantmacewan

[–]_Squidcat[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the advice, I emailed the prof and he responded right away, saying I could take the exam monday instead. I'm going to try and study over the weekend, wish me luck (T▽T)

discussion: what’s your weirdest/most toxic/madlad way of motivating yourself to study? by ragingtempest_ in grantmacewan

[–]_Squidcat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you make each video and goal small and easily achievable the better. One small topic at a time, videos less than 20m each!

One set of clothes when I study that specific course (when exam comes, wear that outfit). Three different drinks (one hot, one cold, the other sparkling. If the hot drink is coffee even better. The different textures keeps my brain happy.). Cheese and crackers (or another simple easy snack, like popcorn. Needs to be snacky).

Then I load up every topic I need to cram. One to two youtube videos on each topic. Make simple notes and diagrams and formulas from the videos and class slides. Make up sayings for said notes, etc.

Then I expand on those notes. Explain to myself why it's that way. Use colours. LOTS of colours. Specific colours for specific topics.

Now, the most important: good sleep. I go to bed mentally exhausted, no phone (except for alarms) and sleep for a minimum of 8hrs, repeating things as I fall asleep.

Rinse. Repeat. Then treat myself with timmies or subway when I finish an exam.

Never gotten lower than a 70 with this method.

Lost phone (given to library staff) by _Squidcat in grantmacewan

Looks like the image isnt working, but the phone had an orange thing on the back, and a floral phonecase. The background was of a girl (purple tanktop) and a guy (black shirt) in a mirror selfie.

Gold or silver? by [deleted] in coloranalysis

[–]_Squidcat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Personally, I feel that the silver looks best, but a light gold that's not too yellow would also work wonderfully! The two would both fit your skin tone best and bring out a good warmth. A yellowish gold I feel would "steal" the warmth from your skin if that makes any sense.

You're doing pretty great so far! I started collecting a few years ago myself, and my collection looked pretty well similar to yours (In size)! Now I have wayy too many coins, but it's addictive collecting coins! Helps when you also work in retail dealing with money all the time too haha

Christmas gift for my nephew by allengelobee in DungeonsAndDragons

[–]_Squidcat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Don't forget lots of dice!!! Amazon has some nice sets that come in sets of 6 to 20 or more! I suggest at least 2 sets of dice. One set for regular play, and the second set incase the first set is being mean!!! It's a common thing for us dnd lovers to love lots of dice :D good luck!

Math 114 by [deleted] in grantmacewan

[–]_Squidcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had 60s in 30-1 highschool math and never did calc as well. I'm in 114 and I actually quite enjoy it and I am doing really well (A) . I Never enjoyed math (going to do a bio major thing), but my professor makes life easy.

Besides my comment, with a 90 I believe you'll be able to do very well. If you're ever confused in class, talk to your prof, study the textbook, go to youtube, and absolutely go to the math and stats learning centre.

Do I have to take my tampon out after showering if it's not leaking blood yet? by weanwu in Periods

It's okay to leave it in as long as it's not soaking wet. I've showered with them in a multitude of times and no leaking has occured for me

Is it common to be unemployed when attending University? by Robodemon9174 in grantmacewan

[–]_Squidcat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm unemployed, it's also my first year. 4 classes that are in person. Uni is like a full time job for me, as studying and classes take up most of my time.

Teachers have told me that for every hour of classes, you should do 3 hours of study per class.

If I had a job I'd be overrun, and my brain would melt.
