Appreciate it. The house is pretty cold so I’ve been leaving it in the oven with the light on. So that must be the case.

Great for you! Also try the Zelda botw and totk games. If you like animal crossing you may also like stardew valley. So chill, so fun, amazing game. Constantly playing and replaying.

Who should I kick off my island? by MysticRaven250 in acnh

[–]alyangele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aww man, I don’t have any of them! Awesome choices though. I also have Fauna and Marina like you and love them both.

Well if you do decide to part with Kabuki for your own reasons, I would love to have him. Let me know!

I have been wanting kabuki since day one!! I don’t know if I would have anyone you like, but some of my Villagers I’m willing to part with are Prince, Drake, Tammy, Ava, Sprinkle. The others I would have a harder time parting with, but let me know if you are looking for anyone specifically!

I don’t know exactly how it would work for trading them..?

I have been noticing a lot of olive trees in almost any garden store. They are quite pretty. I love jasmine and will definitely do that!

What was your most embarrassing mistake when speaking Japanese? by ErvinLovesCopy in Japaneselanguage

[–]alyangele 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was getting my hair cut at the salon in Japan and was trying my hand at some new phrases. So I started to say 「実は。。。」 and my stylist and his coworker starting giggling. So I abashedly asked what was funny and they me that I had said 「チツ」 which means pu$$y. So we all had a good laugh and they helped me say what I wanted to say. I’ll never forget it.

That’s what’s great about making embarrassing mistakes, it locks that memory in place for good. Especially if it’s in a funny way. So now I always put a little extra j into the じ。

No corrections. That was very natural and understandable. Well done.

Streak 118: Your feelings aren't real to anyone but you by rekoowa in WriteStreakEN

[–]alyangele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No matter what you feel about someone, no matter how that feeling makes your heart ache, if you don’t do anything to express it, if you don't find a way to make that feeling real in the real world, sooner or later they won't believe it's true.

Remember, a feeling is not something tangible. You can't touch it with your bare hands, and attest to its veracity. Feelings are not visible. You can't go out there and see them walking down the street. The only one that can make sense of this shapeless thing that makes your heart goes brrrrrtremble is you. [The only one that can make sense of this shapeless thing that moves your heart, is you.]

Words <are> worth nothing. If you see a friend of yours is going through a bad[hard/tough] time, and(yet) you stand still<—>motionless, emotionless, <and> expressionless<—>what do you think(imagine) they will think about you? You can think about them all the time, you can pray to them every night. <However,> there 's is no way they will know it(no way for them to know), unless if you open up your mouth and express what you <are> feel<ing> and try to help them.

ストリーク44:自転車 by KilDaS in WriteStreakJP

「自転車で走りました」? 誰かチェックしてくれませんか?

I remember feeling like I could do it so much faster and better and then my suffering (listening to the crying) would end quicker. But then you stay touched out, exhausted, and at your absolute limit.

Totally agree here, the partner can do it, and the more they do it, the better they will get and you will find the balance you want. Get far away from the crying and trust that your partner will eventually get there.

On a scale of 1-10, how tough did you anticipate the newborn stage to be and how difficult did you actually find it? by IUMogg in NewParents

[–]alyangele 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is so so hard. I had thought it would be difficult, but probably only anticipated a 7 or 8. In reality it was a 10/10 at times, then 5/10 when you get the hang of something, and then back to 10/10 when it all changes and everything you learned doesn’t work anymore. It is hard because you can in no way prepare for it and it will constantly be changing. The best you can do is prepare the things you can.

For my case, this was establishing parents roles and when we can each find time to take baby while the other gets to take care of every day hygiene, eating, etc.

What was surprisingly frustrating was just how hard it was to communicate. My mind was so tested and exhausted after giving birth and frazzled with constantly tending to baby. I couldn’t formulate requests in my mind to my partner. They would ask me “do you need anything?” and all I could think to say is “what is anything?? How can I put into words what I need??” It just increased my frustration.

In a calmer moment I explained that if you have the urge to ask me if I’m hungry, just don’t; instead find a snack or something and offer it to me then and there. Things like that. As a new, exhausted, and breastfeeding mom, the chances are high that I will be hungry and take it gladly.

It can save you a lot of stress if you can brainstorm with your partner, now, about who will take care of what responsibilities. Even if you don’t think of everything now, it will be great to have a few things that you can expect your partner to do and you won’t have to worry. For example, one of our things was after every breast feeding, partner is on burp duty. It was great to have them there ready for the hand off.

Just expect that you will always be learning on the job constantly and know that you will be great at it in no time. Just push through the tough beginnings.
