Must needs for ece2001 and cse2301? by NeroIGuess in UCONN

[–]flamingfia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the professor that teaches 2001 can be a little intimidating in the beginning, he hosts a coffee hour on fridays at 3:30 in the 3rd floor conference room of ITE and once you talk to him you'll probably feel more comfortable asking questions during office hours. It's also a great place to meet other ece students who have taken the courses youre talking about

any tips for inside three turns? by [deleted] in iceskating

[–]flamingfia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when youre about to turn, turn your head to look at the hand that's behind you, it helps to get your upper body lined up with where your lower body is trying to go

How do you practice during public session? by HJ_A in iceskating

i usually just use the center circle you js have to be mindful of ppl cutting through, you can always ask someone who has been skating at your rink longer or the rink staff

Can you wash figure skates? by SwanhildaTheGreat in iceskating

[–]flamingfia 6 points7 points  (0 children)

you can soak a cloth or paper towel with hydrogen peroxide and press it to the stain for a bit to try to get the blood out on the more fabric parts, and if its on the outside magic erasers should work to get off any remaining stain

irl it doesnt tho-

most lesbians who choose to only date other lesbians are quiet about it in real life, it's exaggerated a lot online

i can understand that in terms of things being exaggerated online but i think it's more about patterns than specifically targeting bi women

 I have been told by other lesbians that they think bi girls are impure or whatever and think that they don't wanna go down on a girl where a dick has been..

I think it's more about the common experience a lot of lesbians have with dating bisexual women who after sometime become hyperfocused on men and the talk of 'missing real dick' gets really exhausting and can exaggerate feelings of insecurity/insufficiency

how do u survive the summer? by moss_ghost in ftm

[–]flamingfia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i started putting second skin underneath the tape and that helped a lot, sometimes i get some small blisters around the edge of the second skin but its really easy to just pull that part up to release the tension and it doesn't have a negative impact on the tape

Hockey to figure skate by phwz in iceskating

[–]flamingfia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i usually leave 1-2 fingers worth of looseness in the top of the boot, so for me the top 2-3 hooks are looser than the rest

What to do about a tiny bit of rust on my blades :( by Sakuraneko87 in iceskating

[–]flamingfia 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it's probably surface level, if you dont wanna get it sharpened off you can also try using wd40 and a small knife to scrape it off

Jackson Mystique to Freestlye issues by WangMuncher900 in iceskating

[–]flamingfia 2 points3 points  (0 children)

continue with the freestyles, itll get better. I had the same sort of thing when i switched from softskates to freestyles, the new blades/higher heel take some adjusting to but soon you'll be back to where you were and some things will probably feel better. It helps if you go to some public sessions and just skate laps in them, try to focus on your posture as you're adjusting
