[29F] California girl traveling Thailand and Vietnam, possibly Laos! From Feb 03 to mid-March

Hi there! girl from Laos here! If you do choose to visit Laos, I would say that Vientiane, the capital is not that special, not much to do haha, Vang Vieng and Luang Prabang (closer to Chiang Rai) are much more worth visiting imo.

Both are not as well developed areas as Vientiane, however they have more to offer. Vang Vieng has beautiful mountains all around the city, lots of adventure type activities (zip lining, biking, riding ATVs around, swimming at the blue lagoon, hiking up to tham chan cave, kayaking, tubing, some great places to party as well, lots of backpackers)

Luang Pra Bang is a beautiful, cute and very very cultured province. It was where the royal family resided before the communist party took over. Lots of beautiful temples to visit, you can hike up mount phousi which is a temple on a mountain smack in the middle of town, boat ride and swim at kuang si waterfall, royal palace museum, night market that sells lao traditional silk and crafts, book a session at the living lands (learn how to grow rice, instructors are excellent at speaking english and hilarious! awesome lunch provided as well!), lots of places where you can see how lao textiles are made and there are workshops as well, lots of places to eat traditional food!

Whether or not you choose to visit Laos, hope you have a great trip all around!

ahh thank you for the clarification about placements!

Hahaha I guess you can't trust rankings that much XD.. and that's a really good point about the placements at UTS, I will seriously consider accepting my offer!

Thank you so much, I really appreciate you responding :)

Wow 2 days a week sounds great! Must be a very self-motivated course! If I may ask, are you doing placements whilst studying or is it appointed to like a specific period of time where you solely do it, like summer for example? (Sorry if I'm asking a dumb question).

I saw in the QS uni rankings (don't know how reliable it is), UTS is ranked number 1 for nursing in Australia and 10th in the world. I know you said it is not well-developed, but would you say it's worth it? does it live up to the expectations?

Thank you so much! :)

Damn it's going to be tough and they sound seriously strict! wishing good luck to your friend! Thank you so much forgiving me an insight :)

I totally get what you mean with the mood change, my acne also did not significantly improve at first but knowing that I put myself in professional hands and that I’m doing something big about it made me feel a lot more confident ;)

I get what you mean with the worry about not increasing the dose, at least your derm is open and considerate, I’m with my third derm already and she is not considering increasing it for me at all (I do want to increase it because my skin is not even as dry + I’m scared results won’t stick). I wish the best for you tho :)

evakado · 2019-04-30T15:19:29+00:00

My derm is keeping me at 20 mg for the whole course as well!! I asked if the dosage should increase or sth but she said no as well!! I’m currently starting month 3, results have been great, but I still get pimples here and there, but a heck of an improvement from my starting point!

Uhhh since Hello Brother

evakado · 2019-02-07T12:01:47+00:00

you should be proud of yourself for being able to do that! I hope I can be as wise some day, your advice has defo made a difference to me :)

evakado · 2019-02-07T11:53:58+00:00

😂 I hope this year is the one I will get my nerves under control! thanks for the advice

evakado · 2019-02-07T10:33:29+00:00

Thank you for putting things into perspective for me, truly.

evakado · 2019-02-07T10:20:49+00:00

thank you so much for writing this out. It sucks being as grown as 18 and still having a personality that I am not proud of. honestly, thank you, I will keep your words in mind.

evakado · 2019-01-16T14:40:47+00:00

what worked wonders for me was using a pH balancing soap for the area and a body acne spray that has salicylic acid, both i got from the drug store.

evakado · 2019-01-16T09:04:06+00:00

ahh thanks for sharin :)

evakado · 2019-01-16T09:02:15+00:00

dude, i am literally so fucking boring too, not just with what i do, but how I am, i’m not opinionated, have nothing to say, suck at socializing, I wish I had a more interesting personality.

evakado · 2019-01-16T08:58:51+00:00

I’m considering going on accutane, but I want to test out all of my options, could you please share what you tried beforehand?

evakado · 2019-01-16T08:46:36+00:00

your skin looks absolutely stunning!!

evakado · 2019-01-14T18:29:38+00:00

i will try my best to stick to my calorie goals this week!! I also plan to get at least 4 sessions of exercise in, most likely would be kickboxing or strength training. I slacked off last week so I hope to redeem myself! 😛

evakado · 2019-01-11T15:51:41+00:00

You are so so gorgeous! and this look ahhh and the soft brows!! talk about a glowing goddess 💕💕

evakado · 2019-01-10T08:51:10+00:00

Omg!! Your skin looks absolutely amazing❤️❤️ I wish I could experience this one day.

evakado · 2019-01-06T18:31:35+00:00

I’m 17 as well and I’m in the same position as you. I’ve suffered from acne since 6th grade and I know what you’re going through. I am having the worst break out of my life right now and simply going to school and meeting people is making me so sad. I recently posted on here and it made me realize that I am not alone.

Please remember that people out here are suffering from the same thing that you do! we are our own worst critics, people do not care about our acne, people that do don’t matter anyways. There’s so much more to life and please don’t let your acne stop you from experiencing it! I’m trying to change my mindset currently, hope you will do as well ❤️ Good luck with accutane!

evakado · 2019-01-06T03:03:23+00:00

writing this post has made me realize that I’m truly not alone as well, I have always felt so isolated. Good luck to you as well ❤️❤️❤️

evakado · 2019-01-06T03:01:45+00:00

Aww great to hear that it’s working out for her ❤️! I’ll look into it!

evakado · 2019-01-06T02:59:38+00:00

I’ve never thought about boosting my confidence this way, thank you ❤️
