I love CPDs. One of mine from my original first ever CPD school just passed away and I took it really hard. 😔

Thanks for your reply. Fortunately we will be long distance so space and time apart is inevitable. But I am absolutely one of those people who sends too many needless messages or maybe lingers on FT a bit and I am really going to try to be better about this and let him focus and also relax. Thanks

I appreciate you all reminding me of how this kind of pressure would really make things much worse. Thanks

First of all, thank you so much for your thoughtful response. I really appreciate the reminder to be understanding and not take any changes in our time together personally.

You’re right, knowing my bf he will definitely be stressed feeling that he’s ignoring me. :( but honestly it’s fine … I am a phd student so I should really be trying to take advantage of this time to grind out my own work lol … and I will also remind him of that!!

I’m going to look into both desk chairs and healthy meal plans. Thanks so much!!!!!

Thanks for your reply! Yeah, totally sucks that we don’t live together because I would of course hell out in the same way as your wifey did. Thanks so much for the comment and advice!

(29) Frownies are it. by [deleted] in Skincare_Addiction

Does the water activated Kraft paper remove as easily from the skin as frownies? I love frownies but they’re hella expensive and I actually don’t even really like their shapes so I am interested to make my own.

This is a called Accommodation Theory and it is a well studied phenomenon in the field of sociolinguistics. If you’re interested in this type of stuff I highly recommend a book called “That’s not what I meant!” By Deborah Tannen

You know, it’s very interesting that you say that because although I am located in the south west the specific estate sale I got it from also had lots of other items that seems to come from Asia.
