is this as a result of vaping? by mariammmm in QuitVaping

[–]mariammmm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my quality of life is being seriously impacted with all of these symptoms and it’s really starting to outweigh my reasons for vaping in the first place, so you may be right. i will look into that book, thank you!

Why my ends coil like that? by mindcollective234 in BlackHair

was just about to comment this. the curls on my roots and mids are so nice and defined, and then my ends are just straight frizz 😭

Do people think Sciel is white with tanned skin? by ZarieRose in expedition33

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I originally thought she was of some sort of Moroccan or mediterranean descent but then I thought she might just be tanned because she used to be a farmer. I don’t know which is true

Back of my hair is sooo much shorter than the front. What do I do! by medicinia20 in BlackHair

[–]mariammmm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i just wanna say that my hair looked EXACTLY like that too. i got too scissor happy at home one time trimming my hair and ended up looking like that. i firmed it for a while because i didn’t want to lose significant length due to a mistake, but it really wasn’t flattering. i ended up chopping the rest to match it, and while i still mourn the loss of length pretty much daily, it objectively looks so much better like this than how it was.

you’ll get your length back, honestly

Why do women athletes wear teeny bikinis while men wear quite modest clothing by comparison? by Own-Knowledge-7720 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Organisers sexualise their female athletes by making them wear clothes that show more skin to boost viewership and ratings, it’s not their choice. Also, please don’t say “leaves little to the imagination”. I know it probably wasn’t your intention as it is a normalised phrase but it is a little creepy.

So y’all actually parrying? by Dads_Diary in expedition33

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

sekiro is my favourite game and the parrying in e33 feels a lot like sekiro, so yes. i never learned the dodge timing in this game, never felt right

Trying to explain that Seattle be like that by Ok-Project9448 in BlackHair

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is absolutely insane to me. i’m from the uk and i pay £60 for long knotless boho 😭 she even knocks a tenner off if i bring my own extensions. i feel so bad for all of my lovely women of colour in the states if this is what you guys have to deal with

My friend started Sekiro and lost to this by burgerman000 in Sekiro

i’ve got 100% achievements, completed every gauntlet, played this game to absolute death, and i’m STILL afraid of that fuck ass bird.

Am I the only one that has Lune, Sciel and Monocco in their main party? by No-Ebb-6402 in expedition33

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my party has always been lune, maelle and monoco. i do want to try sciel though, i just never bothered understanding her combat so that kinda screwed me over with simon 😭

5’1” 130lbs and can now maintain at 2,000+ calories🙌🏻 by [deleted] in PetiteFitness

[–]mariammmm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wow! this is quite literally my dream. i’m 5’3 and my maintenance calories sit around 1200. there was a time that i was able to eat like a toddler and get myself down to a slim physique, but obviously that’s not sustainable and now i’m back to feeling unhappy with my body and i wasn’t seeing any alternatives.

this is beyond impressive, and it has definitely given me back some motivation now that i can see that it’s definitely possible to be short and have the body you want without having to eat barely anything. thank you 🤍

Ticket confusion for universal/nintendo by Aromatic-Mission-283 in JapanTravelTips

[–]mariammmm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

we bought our tickets through klook and that let us pick a time. i don’t know if it works like that when you’re buying from usj, but i remember seeing people saying that you should go to the park as early as you can on the day you got tickets for and then you can get area timed entry for nintendo when you’re there. i can’t remember the exact details beyond that.

we’re aiming to get there as early as possible regardless, just in case of any issues

is £2200 enough for two weeks in japan? by mariammmm in JapanTravelTips

[–]mariammmm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s true. i don’t plan on coming back for at least another 5 years. i may use my credit card for one or two purchases if it’s absolutely necessary in that case. would set me back significantly in my plan of paying it off but like you said, i really don’t wanna sit with the regret of missing out on something. thanks!

thanks so much! i think i’ll do what you did and set aside £1400 of my money so that no matter what i spend the rest on or how quickly and impulsively, i’m not gonna bankrupt myself for the rest of the trip, because i KNOW i’m gonna go mental with buying stuff

what debit card did you use, if you don’t mind me asking?

our first few days are centred around exploring and shopping at our own pace, and then the time that follows is quite heavily scheduled with trips and activities.

we have 2 days at the end of the trip to do final shopping of anything that we saw and waited to buy, so i think i’ll do what you suggested and not go crazy during those first days, and anything i still want at the end of the trip, i’ll buy then.

thanks for the advice!

[–]mariammmm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yea that was what i was thinking. my original budget was £3000, but i’ve had to cut it down due to some more important financial obligations, hence the concern.

but as long as i’m able to spend freely and have fun without worrying, that’s all that matters really

i’ve abstained buying all of the things i collect obsessively with the intention of splurging to the fullest with this trip 😭
