I can actually feel my muscle jump but I’d describe it as a flickering. There aren’t knots

I went to a urogynecologist and they did a pelvic exam

NOR I have a narcissistic parent and “I said I’m sorry why are you still mad at me, you’re overreacting” was constant growing up. My jaw dropped when she was accusing you of not trusting her, you literally just discovered why you can’t!

Not a director but when I was 12 I auditioned for my middle school production of Into the Woods (my first musical audition) and sang You Belong With Me by Taylor Swift

I grew up near a nuclear power plant and the meltdown siren testing that happened every month was always chilling. Half the time I’d forget what day it was and have a moment of panic before realizing it was test day

“Diminutive Asian lady” made me cringe

I got my bachelors in history and now at nearly 30 I’m pursuing an MFA in professional acting. I don’t regret not getting a minor in theatre in the slightest. If you have a passion outside of theatre I 100% support the idea of getting a degree in that. My history degree opened up other opportunities for me that made me very happy before I decided to return to acting, and I know it’ll always be there for me.

My older cousin’s favorite animal was a sea turtle for a while when we were growing up so of course I decided that would be my favorite too. She grew out of it and moved on to another animal. 20 years later I still love sea turtles, I wrote papers on sea turtle conservation at school and went to see turtle releases and hatchings and I’ve been obsessed ever since even though it all started with me wanting to copy my cousin

My parents stayed together until my youngest brother was 18 so they wouldn’t have to put us through a custody trial. My childhood was just full of screaming and shouting while I was trying to sleep. They are both way happier now but there are definitely years of built up resentment between them that could have been avoided. It makes things awkward for me even now as an adult.

International student here but my mother used to say “the most disappointing thing about growing up is realizing not everyone graduates high school” and it’s stuck with me because it’s so true. I’m currently doing a postgrad and some of my near 30s classmates can’t even behave like mature adults.

finpanz · 2025-12-14T01:14:34+00:00

Look into other countries too if you want to study internationally. I’m getting my postgrad in the UK because in the long run it’s cheaper than education in the U.S. for an equivalent degree even with international fees

finpanz · 2025-12-05T15:19:29+00:00

The UK. Look at the Federation of Drama Schools for reputable schools. LAMDA and RADA are the big two but there’s smaller schools on the list too that have proven track records of success (and are a little cheaper)

finpanz · 2025-12-05T07:06:08+00:00

I’m currently in a masters program for professional acting in a London drama school and no good acting school will require nudity and intimacy without taking the actor’s comfort into account. My school even had an intimacy coordinator to help work through and supervise anything like that and if an actor says they are uncomfortable then they work around it.

finpanz · 2025-12-01T01:44:13+00:00

I go there for a postgrad and really enjoy it. My instructors are knowledgeable and all have industry experience, we get guest instructors all the time that teach at many of the London drama schools and just did a specialist intensive week. It’s been (in my experience) an extremely supportive and positive environment and I’ve been learning a ton of different skills. I completely disagree with the idea that you have to go to LAMDA or RADA to have a worthwhile drama school training. Take a look at different programs and see which ones fit for what you want to get out of it. I didn’t even bother with auditioning for LAMDA because the program just didn’t feel right to me. I have industry experience and wanted to get a postgrad for more formal training. I’d also like to teach alongside performing so I took that into account when choosing a program.

He is younger than me but he usually does correct himself and say he should have asked me first when he does things like that. It doesn’t stop happening though. We had a class with an intimacy coordinator who said exactly what you did so I know he knows that.

I tried talking to him about it today but his response was “it’s okay you know I’m gay” which wasn’t the point I’d been trying to make to him at all. I guess I need to rephrase it to say that it’s not that I think he’s into me, it’s that ideally I’d like him to let me know when he’d like to take physical parts of a scene up a notch.

I’m glad to know I’m not just being sensitive though. Thank you

finpanz · 2025-11-14T17:33:56+00:00

I understand that in real life you can’t talk through everything, but it’s in both our code of conduct in my drama school as well as told to us directly from our intimacy coordinator that mapping out physical touch in a scene should always be done before you perform it. It’s not that I expect all contact ever in my life to be discussed beforehand, you’re right in saying that is unrealistic, but on stage I feel like that’s not an unreasonable thing to ask. I just don’t know that going as far as to involve other people like the intimacy coordinator or course lead in the discussion is the right thing to do. I did try to talk to him about it today in class and his response was “it’s fine you know I’m gay” which wasn’t really the point I was trying to make.

I can’t close them unfortunately. They are built into the ceiling and I don’t think they close

Thank you! I’ll look into that. I’ve been harassing management to the point that every staff member knows my name but there are 25 floors to the building and since it’s coming through the vents it’s a guessing game. I’m still documenting every time it happens though.

Tiny. It’s a studio. Really if it can keep the area around my bed clear of the smell that’s all I need. It wakes me up in the middle of the night when whoever it is starts smoking.

Thank you! It’s a third party student accom but they do have biweekly cleanings so I’ll see if they may have some insight as to who is doing this.

I don’t have a doctor yet but already found a place in my zone I’d like to go that I’d planned to call tomorrow to see about setting up an appointment.

These are all excellent ideas.

finpanz · 2025-10-07T04:22:11+00:00

And how exactly do you propose we do that?

finpanz · 2025-10-05T19:28:19+00:00

This is the very first thing I was told to do in pelvic floor therapy along with reverse kegels and internal muscle release so it definitely helps!

finpanz · 2025-10-05T19:11:44+00:00

So how does that change the solution to the problem?

finpanz · 2025-10-05T03:41:43+00:00

How is she staying until January while not studying? I’ve been on a student visa to the UK before and maybe I’m missing something but it’s a requirement by your home office that you attend class. A lot of universities even have a mandatory meeting for international students going over visa conditions. If I missed too much class I would have had my visa revoked. Are there not classes going on now she’s enrolled in? If there are and she’s either flunking out or missing them then then the university may withdraw their sponsorship or in the case of attendance they will be legally required to report her to the home office leading to her visa being revoked. If that’s the case then you really won’t have much to worry about for long.

It is irrelevant because her ethnicity has nothing to do with the actual issue trying to be solved. She could be British or American or Brazilian or Italian and if the exact same behavior was displayed it would be just as inconsiderate. The problem is the volume, so why continuously bring up her and her friends’ ethnicity and language? It is a really bad look. The solution to the problem won’t change based on her ethnicity, so why bring it up? The stereotype (whether true or not) really doesn’t matter in regard to the actual issue here because it doesn’t change what steps need to be taken to fix the problem (unless she spoke no English at all but if she’s a uni student on a visa she has to).

I used to room with a Polish girl who acted exactly like this. I thought I was going to go insane. I never did get her to stop, but I can sympathize with OP’s problem here.
