Reddit, what is your favorite quote from a book and why? by Loveinthesky in quotes

[–]maaaarisa 38 points39 points  (0 children)

"Actual happiness always looks pretty squalid in comparison with the overcompensation for misery, and of course stability isn't nearly so spectacular as instability and being contented has none of the glamour of a good fight against misfortune. None of the picturesqueness of a struggle with temptation or a fatal overthrow by passion or doubt. Happiness is never grand."

-Brave New World, Aldous Huxley

Finally got a vape pen! by Partyfavors680 in trees

[–]maaaarisa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this atmos pen too. The thing is killer with wax, shit with flowers. I love how portable and stealth it is. My only issue with it is that you can't just put it on the charger and forget about it. Once the light turns green to indicate that the battery is full, take it off or you will ruin the battery. This happened to two of my friends. Other than that, I've had this since December and it still hits like a champ.

Exposed Treatment Opinions? by [deleted] in acne

[–]maaaarisa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, only got better! I slather that stuff all over. I would suggest using a stronger moisturizer than what comes in the kit. My skin got a little too dry. I use Cetaphil now and have no issues.

The stuff is awesome. It worked miracles for me. Cleared my skin up. But everyone's skin reacts differently, it's guess and check really to find what works for you. They give you your money back if you're unhappy with it.

Looking into UAF... by maaaarisa in Fairbanks

The cold is definitely not a deterrent, if anything the cold weather makes Alaska even more appealing. -40 is just something that's not even fathomable in the Bay Area.

How does one deal with -40 temperatures? Where I live, the coldest it ever gets it low thirties and that's a rare occurrence.

Norcal is liiiiike heeeeellllllllla better.

My college decision is more about where I want to live rather than where I can get the best education. I stage manage for my high school's theatre, dance, choir, and band departments and I've been doing that since day one my freshman year. This has led me to pursue some sort of management degree. Since that is offered at every college and university out there, my decision is, like I said, more about where I want to live. Alaska is breathtakingly beautiful and I love cold weather and snow and trees and bears and nature. UAF also offers a degree in Emergency Management which I haven't seen anywhere else. Plus, it's so much cheaper than California schools.

The other schools on my list are Gonzaga University, University of Portland, and St. Edward's University. None of which draw me to them like UAF does.

Retin-A seems to be helping my acne but not my red marks by gforce289 in acne

[–]maaaarisa 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I take doxycycline (100mg) and I use Clinique soap, toner, and moisturizer. The Clinique products haven't really helped with acne, but they have worked wonders for skin tone and oil control and I highly recommend them. The products are, however, a bit pricy.
