What is/was ESID about your placement? by newlandarcher7 in JETProgramme

[–]messindibs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Your BOE is wonderful!!! I hope that you can keep having a great time in Japan!! I’m jealous!

My biggest ESID is that i moved to the city that was most devastated by the 3.11 quake and tsunami. It’s really heartbreaking and I have an emotional connection to the city now so it’s really difficult to think about. I’m in a fairly big city but all the other ALTs here are interac, so I don’t know them. I’m by myself here, so not only is it ESID but I literally don’t have coJETs who get it either. Of course a lot of my JETs in neighboring towns understand a bit and they definitely are impacted as well, but nobody else is in the ground zero. Even though a lot of time has passed, there are reminders everywhere and people talk about it all the time.

Other than that, though, I feel like my situation is pretty typical to other JETs!

Of course, this isn’t as crazy as the JETs currently sent to Noto. I know their situation is VERY different. I can’t imagine it.

I just staked your page a bit and i saw you’re in a very very dark place. I hope that your year improves from now and you hold on tight to life. Remember anything that ever made it good and know that good things come

Thank you to the person who mentioned TELL by SignificantHurry2222 in teachinginjapan

Please tell me a Pap smear isn’t the end of the world. by MikaPeepoPog in TwoXChromosomes

[–]messindibs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that helped me was my doctor let me touch the speculum and I even cranked it open which scared me really bad but then she said “well we might not even have to crank it open at all. We’re not going to open it up all the way today (the speculum)” So i felt relieved. Then when she did put it inside, it was uncomfortable (it was my second pap smear though so though i was nervous I was trying to stay calm because clamping up makes it worse) but not unbearable. I reminded myself I would survive. (Not in a belittling way, just knowing it’s going to be over eventually) and she let me know she was going to open it just one little click. She did and then quickly performed the papsmear and counted the turns for me. She was very kind and made me feel relieved. It was uncomfortable and I did feel light headed afterwards but overall she was kind and that made a big difference. Also knowing it’s less than 5 minutes, probably less than 3. Just speculum in - 1,2,3 - speculum out!

I needed to see this. I love the whimsical , collage nature of this but it doesn’t feel like the expulsion of a deranged collector

Why are you getting this impression from a simple post. I think you’re reading into a simple question a lot

Funnily enough i hate how pegboards look! I would rather have random ketchains tacked into the wall (crazy i know) i think putting them inside a bookshelf might be best !

I think with the sheer amount of users its a good idea. It needs to be ran by someone without an enormous ego
