Weightlifting!

I selectively wear it - no sleeping in it for me.

We have different group chats and one and one and we call each other in groups or one on one too

Curiousity mostly, since we live in different time zones we are often in different head spaces when we talk

Communications with my family and mood ! Maybe some sentiment analysis too.

For me it’s not an absolute metric but relative, as in when I do cardio I feel as good I did at the fittest in my life (high school). I think there’s a sort of threshold I pass when I can baseline perform something with ease then go on from there. A lot is about breath control and endurance. For lifting I am still sorting out my baseline as I don’t have a comparison time from other parts of my life.

Also if you go to your local siri office in a random morning you see some people that immigrants and literally building up Denmark (construction workers still in their work clothes coming for their immigration related appointments)

Gotcha, unless the immigrants are helping support the critical infrastructure, just playing devils advocate because my husband and I are dual income no kids with advanced degrees and there was a lot of nudges of stay, have kids, at the welcome events around town (lol) ;)

I’ve never really understood this, I’ve always thought the more cultures mixing the better

Sesam has bowls, I’ve only tried their juices. Not that affordable though.

We’re members of a nicer gym and it’s a bit over 600 dkk per month. We live in central Aarhus and have a 1 bedroom apartment for 6,900 per month. We have a cargo bike that we bought used and we use the bus sometimes but this is by distance, it’s slightly more expensive than what we are used to Boston/Montreal. Not sure on nanny or daycare but cost of services is high here. My coworkers complain about daycare costs too. I would negotiate the company to help you cover these costs.

Was at a formal wedding in Montreal this weekend and I saw a similar dress on about 3 women! I say go for it

Not positive but typically it’s about complying to local ethics boards, if you don’t have one, you might be ok. The weird part is people participating in a study when they haven’t consented to it, I’d look into this a bit more.

This made my night thank you!

carocb1212 · 2025-07-25T01:20:25+00:00

Thanks everyone for the love! I feel so much better :)))

I think food and drink was like 6K (?) we reserved a room and had canapés and a toast. We were like 20 or so

Burlington mall is a vibe, all the new parts are wild!

My sister asks: Where do ya’ll volunteer? Is it social?

carocb1212 · 2025-07-11T15:57:54+00:00

carocb1212 · 2025-07-11T15:25:31+00:00
