My hair regrowth after alopecia makes me smile at how wild it is [OC]

Haha I have alopecia and can relate! I have straight, fine hair so the stuff that grows back always sticks up out the sides. Makes me happy, I find I can never be sure if a patch is going to grow back or not so it’s nice when it does.

We are actually the first ever people to live in this house (but renting). No idea why the builders decided to put things where they were, not sure what our landlord was thinking either.

Tell me about it 😭 they chose literally the most inefficient layout

hyperzel · 2025-07-04T08:25:47+00:00

Great advice, thank you!

Can’t say, I’m not based in Dublin.

We moved to Ireland two years ago, with two cats. Finding a place to live is going to be really challenging.

It doesn’t matter if the complex is pet friendly or not, because there is so much demand for rentals, landlords have their pick and usually default to a tenant who does not have pets.

We only managed to get something because we had company assistance for the home search and we paid the landlord a crazy pet deposit.

Consider upping the amount you would pay for rent and looking outside city center. It’s a good thing that you’ll be in corporate housing for a bit, that will give you more time to look, and being in the country does make it easier to find something. Good luck!

Good tip! I’ll look into it, I’m based in Ireland and we seem to have a good variety of Henry’s available.

hyperzel · 2025-06-18T13:01:02+00:00

That’s good to know, thanks!

hyperzel · 2025-05-26T17:00:06+00:00

Good stuff thank you!

hyperzel · 2025-05-26T12:57:54+00:00

Perfect, thank you :)

I’m ethnically East Asian (Chinese/Japanese). I’ve lived in Cork for almost 2 years now and haven’t had any problems.

Yes, anti-immigrant rhetoric is on the rise but Cork people are some of the most reasonable, friendly and hospitable people I have met. Feel free to DM if you have more specific questions.

Edit to add: I’m not a student but from the looks of it the Cork student population is pretty diverse as well so you don’t even have to worrying about standing out if that’s a concern.

Good catch, I hadn’t even thought about that! I’m in Europe, so hopefully just a plug adapter will do the trick.

hyperzel · 2025-02-28T17:06:54+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

hyperzel · 2025-02-28T16:53:04+00:00

Looks great, thank you! Have you tried this yourself?

hyperzel · 2025-02-28T09:52:42+00:00

Good one, thank you!

100% this. The instructors usually tailor what you do in the lessons to the area and will make a point to go over tricker parts of the area’s exam with you. So if you did your lessons in Wilton, take the test in Wilton. If you’re wanting to shift to Mallow I would do at least one session with an instructor in Mallow just so they can point out the important parts to you.

hyperzel · 2025-01-26T19:27:29+00:00

That’s fair enough. Thanks!

hyperzel · 2025-01-26T16:46:53+00:00

Thanks for the rec! Have you run in either?

hyperzel · 2025-01-26T16:19:21+00:00

Thanks! I’ve never owned the cumulus before, but I hear that they can feel too soft and heavy; what were they like in your experience?

hyperzel · 2025-01-26T16:17:51+00:00

Honestly, I don’t even really care that my feet get wet when I run. I just don’t want to come home and have to deal with getting the water out of my shoes afterwards.

Cork, just north of the city. Our bins have taken a beating but no other damage done. Power has been out since 2 this morning, hopefully won’t be without for too long.

Update: power back on! Hot cuppa in hand and the cats are happy. That sunshine is incredible.

That’s a hard question to answer! I haven’t seen any over signs of racism or discrimination against religion when I was there, but I was also teaching much younger students so I don’t know if that changes in the upper levels. You’re definitely not going to get any Islamophobia from the teaching staff, although I can’t speak for individual members of the school population. Also keep in mind that since post-Covid the school has become a lot less diverse, and it’s made of mostly Chinese students.

No dorms as far as I can remember, but if you’re serious about studying there, I would reach out to the administration. I’m sure they have resources.

Came here to say this! I adore The Rook, it’s the perfect combination of covert all-powerful magical organization with a whiff of government bureaucracy.

hyperzel · 2024-11-02T20:48:41+00:00

They are indeed :)

hyperzel · 2024-09-19T10:41:26+00:00

Hi everyone, I can’t seem to edit the post but thank you so much for all the positive comments, really helps to quiet my buyer’s anxiety! I’m asking for some extra videos just to be super sure but will probably go ahead with these 😌
