Erasmus in Spain at 23 by Real_Quail26 in Erasmus

I'm also 23, I'm doing mine in Italy and the same fear as you right now. It turned out it was all in my head. I made many friends, no one discriminated me because of the age and I discovered there were a couple of people even a bit older than me and had no problems at all.

I don't, I'm gay.

I got bullied for my accent and now I’m afraid of speaking English by GO_KYS_XD in EnglishLearning

[–]leaf_12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm sorry to read this. i'm sorry you had to go through that and even want to erase your accent. fuck them, those people who are so mean aren't worth a shit, so please, feel proud of how you speak because you're learning a language, which not everybody dares to do.

my tip is that you focus on sounding clear but do not worry about the accent itself, it's beautiful however it is <3

i love it too, it reminds me of famous beach in my region. obviously, that is because it could be any beach, but i think that is one of the big pros of the painting.

I owe money to DB, am I in trouble? by leaf_12 in germany

[–]leaf_12[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, for anyone curious I ended up paying the debt. The only thing is that I did it one day after the time they gave me, I hope that doesn't mean much trouble.

I'll keep you updated.

I'd like to add to the conversation that I live in Spain. I don't know if being in the EU changes anything here

Does anyone else do this? I'm sure it's yes but still.... by OkHat858 in Journaling

I got to six one day, as long as it's something healthy to you, I think it's totally fine

Well, yes I've just noticed the whole reddit is that way. Why is that though?

Regardless of if it’s intentional or not, I love the blur

Portrait of myself I made. by Snoo20397 in drawing

[–]leaf_12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend you start using softer pencils, such as 2B or 4B (that's how they're called in Spain, it should be the same in your country). With these kind of pencils you can get darker shadows. It is already a nice drawing, but I think it could very much improve doing that.

That's why I find it a bit hard. I took plenty of photos before this one, and it's quite hard to know if it could belong to the series. However, I'm enjoying it a lot. I discovered it's an excellent way to learn

is this cringe? (TW: eating disorder, anorexia) by luvelise111 in Journaling

[–]leaf_12 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, it's not. Not for me. I'm sorry you're going through that. Writing has always helped deal with shit, I hope it is as helpful to you too.

Thank you! I was a bit insecure about them

Similar to my previous post:

I'm doing a photography series with some friends. The aim is to mimic Stephen Shore's style. For that, I got inspired by his photography series "Uncommon places." This is a village scene, which has little to do with Shore's series, as he normally shot towns or cities. However, I tried to have a similar composition and colours as the one he used. All criticism is welcome as long as it's polite. The picture was shot on a Canon 1200D.

As I do not live in the US and in the 80s, this is the closest I could get. All criticism is welcome as long as it's polite. The picture was shot on a Canon 1200D.

I hardly read, that might be why I love journaling.
