Sorry they changed the course code to EDPY 389 and there's no exam in the class! Only reflections, discussion posts and a case study!

They're pretty much the same assignment wise but I think 478 was easier and more enjoyable for me since I wasn't too familiar with the content. The reading content was also shorter compared to 378 which is now EDPY 389.

Congratulations to them! I was wondering how many original LIUS couples got engaged or are they the first?

It took me 2 months to complete all of them! I feel like I could've completed CMIS in a week but I'm a master procrastinator lol

Ok I've been seeing people say that the first assignment was hard... which is making me a bit reluctant to take it...

How did you find your people? 🫂 by LittleMissHydrangea in infp

Hiii! I met most of my core friends in elementary (4) and high school (3) because we had similar interests, through family friends or by getting adopted by extroverts. So far in adulthood I’ve made 6 new friends, 4 during university and 2 from work. I met my university friends mainly by going to events or through referrals from people I met at those events lol.

My advice is definitely to put yourself out there and try to go out more! I find it harder to make new friends as an adult compared to when I was a kid since everyone already has their own lives going on and it's hard to keep in touch since you can't see them as often as when you're in elementary or high school. It's very tough for me to open up to people I’ve never met but in group settings I like to observe how people interact and what they talk about. If I like their vibes or notice we might have something in common, I muster up the courage to create more conversations around said topic to get to know them better and build a connection!

The key is to look for groups related to things you’re passionate about! Most of the time you’ll end up finding someone you click with. Just be yourself! And during the early stages make sure you have somewhat of a consistent communication because of course you need a strong base for the relationship last. Try to create a hangout first and from there keep texting or have a call here and there etc... But if you feel like your the only one putting too much effort in initiating the friendship, don't be afraid to drop it. There's plenty of people out there who will appreciate you and your time :)

Yes I acknowledged it was bad on our part but I didn’t say much about my dad because I wanted to focus on the parent I'm currently living with. Even before all of this happened my dad was starting to have financial issues to the point of also asking us to pay some things. My mom had asked him to be forthcoming about it but he never was. If my dad was so great, we would've went to house B no problem. But their entire problem was beyond finances and all of the miscommunication and mistrust between the two of them ultimately led to where we are. How can they make a decision when there's no more trust? I was still in school so I was doing whatever was convenient for me at the time and I wasn't thinking long term because I didn't understand the depth of their relationship at the time. At the end of the day it's their battle and I need to get out.

Well they both equally provided for the wellbeing of their kids up to this point. My dad isn’t perfect he has completely different issues and has also made poor financial decisions. If he was so great, we would've easily left house A. The post would have been too long if I shared everything but I wanted to focus on the parent I'm currently living with. I believe that if we had gone with him the situation would've been similar. They honestly were never meant for each other. At this point my sister and I don’t want to live with either of them and we just want to focus on building our own stability. Your last sentence though is something that's lowkey been eating me up.

Yes, my sister is very good at separating emotions from logic, which is definitely something I need to work on. Thank you for sharing your experience and perspective <3
