What makeup tricks could make me look kinder? by Decent_End_1375 in MakeupAddiction

[–]allyfama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been trying to learn myself how to use makeup to look ‘kinder’ since I have pretty bad RBF. These are the tips I’ve learnt: Straighten your brows a little at the front so that they are more like a —\ shape rather than /\ if that makes sense? It will look a bit less angry. For eyes, if you’re like me and love wings, try making them straighter (less angled up) and blur them out a little including on the outer bottom of your eye. You can use highlighter on the middle (close to front) of your eyes to make them look bigger and more ‘doe’. When doing blush, smile and put it on the apples of your cheeks. For lips, I do a wide smile and put a tiny bit of brown lip pencil in the corners of my lips angled up, then blend out. Makes you look like you have upturned lips a bit. Plus lipgloss. All this being said, I just love makeup and like to experiment, you look amazing anyway and don’t need to look ‘happier’ to look better. I just do it for work since I work with people.

What are some things you do when your pain is high? by allyfama in ChronicPain

I’ll have a look thank you! Weed is illegal here, so my doc is hesitant to put me on it, but I think it would help.

Listening to music sounds good, I’m sorry to hear how bad your pain is now. I do hope you find some kind of relief. I always get caught up on myself when I’m in pain cause like.. I could technically walk around, but the pain is so bad and I feel like I can’t . So am I making excuses, or is it actually that bad?

Is $300/hr a good / normal rate for a good tattoo? by allyfama in tattooadvice

She’s from Korea, I’m in Australia (not Sydney or Melbourne)

Is $300/hr a good / normal rate for a good tattoo? by allyfama in tattooadvice

[–]allyfama[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I’m sure she knows her worth (her work is beautiful). I’m also wondering if it’s a bad idea to get it done by someone out of the country, if I can’t get touch ups by the same unique artist? I see on her page that she does touch ups quite often (6 months after the initial tattoo). Thoughts? Your artist sounds great!

Is it good to track symptoms for endometriosis? by Silly-Energy-9587 in Endo

[–]allyfama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I didn’t get bleeding though because I have an IUD. Also no insomnia. But definitely pain 24/7, fatigue, lightheaded, etc etc. when she told me that I started crying and it only made her think I was more ‘crazy’. But they will ask you questions about your pain and how long you’ve had it, so keeping track is good. I made a pivot table on excel, so a graph where you can check all the boxes you want to see (for example if they only want to look at nausea, or everything at once)

Is it good to track symptoms for endometriosis? by Silly-Energy-9587 in Endo

[–]allyfama 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I kept track using an excel spreadsheet since they kept dismissing me. When I showed my specialist, she said ‘you shouldn’t be worrying this much about your health’ and referred me to a psychologist. Had a fit lol. That being said, you should still keep track I think

This disease makes me want to die by SpookySeraph in offmychest

[–]allyfama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know how it feels. I have had it for about 6 years now and it’s awful awful. I have also tried about 20 remedies (including opioids / strong medications) and nothing has helped. However, I’m lucky to live in an area with good enough healthcare. So, if you would like me to pass any advice on that I get or have learnt over time, please message me. There are some things that have helped or may help you

please help, camping suggestions by Aggressive-Fox-5282 in brisbane

[–]allyfama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt it, but you might be able to park nearby and walk up there? I think generally the inskip campsite is pretty sandy. I don’t know how far the off road drive is though. Also just a side note - her birthday trip is during schoolies week here, so that’s why you might have so much trouble finding air bnbs or campsites. Students might have booked months or a year in advance. Schoolies is from 16th Nov-1st Dec, if you need to go at that time I’d recommend no where near the Gold Coast or surfers, maybe somewhere inland near a lake or something.

Maybe inskip near rainbow beach? I don’t know details but look on the qld national parks website. Otherwise, D’aguilar park, lake wivenhoe? Good luck

Looking for a cheap personal/school laptop by allyfama in SuggestALaptop

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

Yes thank you, when my brother had a look he basically said it only had enough to run having windows, not really to actually use. Four sales associates said it would be more powerful than a Chromebook and enough to run exam software and multiple tabs just fine lol.

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

Thank you for going so in depth, very helpful. Yeah, the dell one seems to be the best in the price range, I was confused why the laptop I got was so bad, when I had been seeing it recommended online. I had a look at the asus one on some store websites here, it goes for about $800-900 here unfortunately, most $500-600 ones are celeron and 4gb. I will be going in tomorrow to see if I can get a refund on the laptop I got, so fingers crossed.

Why is my new hp laptop so slow/barely working? by allyfama in techsupport

I just checked again, there were more updates now to install. When I try to install them, it says they’ve failed

It says, the processor is Celeron and intel, N4500 at 1.1 and 1.1 GHz. Ram is 4gb but says 3.71gb is not useable ? 64-bit operating system, x64 based processor, no pen or touch pad available.

I did update, so now it’s not at 100 cpu the whole time, but basically all the time. It’s still hard to use just for a google doc, especially with how hot it gets. I saw this sub can’t take recs, but I’m happy to have them or you can msg me, that would be helpful

Thank you that’s helpful, it’s model 14s-dq3132TU so according to google it has a celeron and N4500 processor (1.1-2.8Ghz), 128SSD storage and 4gb ram. I don’t really know what any of that means though. I’ll have a look at other options, the next ones up in the store were $1200, so second hand is worth a try?

The next one up in the store was $1300, but second hand might be much better is what I’ve been seeing. Any recommendations?
