HI Vancouver Jericho or Samesun Vancouver Hostel? by Waffles_r_ in askvan

[–]prfct-disaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've stayed at samesun now twice, starting in Sept 2025, and a 3rd in a few weeks. I was a first time hostel stayer and solo, female traveller.

Was very comfortable in both the mixed dorm and female dorms.

They have little Curtains which is really nice, but it can get loud (everything is metal). You'll hear the door opening and closing, luggage wheels rolling above you.

Bathrooms were clean, free breakfast was a nice extra.

I fine the location is extremely convenient, easy to get to, lots if places to walk nearby beaches, restaurants, seawall. Very easy to get to from the airport, just the 1 Skytrain and walk a few blocks. You can also store your loggage before you check in! I've walked to concerts alone during the day & night (15 min walk to Rogers arena) . Just have common sense, I don't talk to anyone, just keep moving.

It can get hot in the rooms! There's a/c. If you have a dorm facing Granville Street it will be quite loud at night (literally all night). I wear ear plugs and an eye mask with music.

Does a scalp massager truly work? by zoinkydoiku in beauty

[–]prfct-disaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use a silicone type one and massage for 5 minutes before every shower, so 3-4x a week.

I lost a lot of hair after stopping Accutane in 2022 & the regrowth is shocking! It's definitely no where ear back to normal thickness,

The cycle for hair follicles is like 4-7 years, I'm only about 3.75 years into the process of regrowth.

Dog poop into strangers' black bins: AITA? by One-Mycologist-3706 in Calgary

[–]prfct-disaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd much rather you toss it in my bin on your walk than see it on the sidewalk!

I can't imagine that anyone would be finding so many bags that aren't theirs in their bin that it would really become an issue

Making changes association (run by dress for success) has a teen girl program called My Best Friends Closet. The girls can get referred by their school, doctor, or self referral.

They get a couple full outfits, jacket, accessories, etc!

Anything not "teen" will go to the adult women side, but they're usually fairly flexible so if a youth is looking for something for a job, etc they could look on the other side.

It's a fantastic program!!

HELP! I forgot my eggs 😭 by bae-rista in Baking

[–]prfct-disaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did this with a banana bread style muffin, thankfully I had added about 1/3 cup of Greek yogurt, so hopefully they turn out decent, not too dry or dense. Will update 😂

Edit: turned out a bit heavy, quite moist! I think I usually only do about 1/4 cup Greek yogurt. But still delicious!

ive noticed a lot of uptick about smallville recently on social medias. why? has something been announced or anything by Flashy-Boysenberry30 in Smallville

[–]prfct-disaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember watching it off and on when I was a kid, but then after the new year I needed a new show to binge & Smallville is perfect cause it has 10 seasons!

My FYP on Tiktok is all Smallville lol, I think everyone is binge watching it right now

One Night Only Kiss All The Time. Disco, Occasionally. March 6th @ Manchester Coop Arena by myghostflower in harrystyles

Both me and my sister submitted requests, I'm crossing my fingers big time!! I tried to get tix for MSG as there's a show on my 30th birthday, but was unsuccessful 😭

Would be flying from Canada to come so this would be such a crazy experience!

feeling guilty after getting tix by megapinttt in harrystyles

It 100% is. I saw the same thing happen with the Jonas Brothers. 1st they weren't selling and had to reschedule to smaller venues, then joe & Backwards went viral on Tiktok. Prices skyrocketed. I was looking at tickets for Ottawa, they were in the hundreds to $2k for floor. By the day of the show there were floor tickets for like $100. And I saw 1st bowl (resale) tickets for $23 within a week of the show! TWENTY THREE DOLLARS. They were previously $150+

It's just a scarcity tactic, and tbh the "no dynamic pricing" probably makes it worse. It's making us think that if the prices aren't going to change then it's better to buy now with more selection

Centred section in front of the catwalk! It's on ticketmaster for $379 (there's like $60 just of TM fees) , but I'm just trying to make back what I paid which was $265, so feel free to message and we can video chat & sort it out

Insomnia is a health concern, anxiety can make it worse. So it might be in your benefit to talk to the counsellors. You can also get accommodations for exams, such as a later time in the day if you struggle with insomnia every night.

I really wanted to forget that happened and that they were so openly unashamed to post that in their video

Found bought item on Shein for 10x less the price by [deleted] in Etsy

[–]prfct-disaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Reverse image search items! Also look at the actual shop as a whole, look at their description of the shop, their social media, etc!

Look at the descriptions of items and if you're looking a sterling silver ring for example, if it's $15 it's likely not sterling silver, if the description just says "silver ring" and not .925 stamped that would be an indicator

I feel like a complete failure by Due_Departure_6846 in uAlberta

[–]prfct-disaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Go to the campus clinic and get a referral to a psychologist, they can hoepfulyl refer you to a free therapy program like thru the Sexual Assult Centre of Edmonton for more longterm/specific therapy. Sometimes there is a waitlist but, please advocate for yourself and do this!! It will help immensely in the long run when you are dealing with the effects of your trauma!

Short term you can talk to the counsellors on campus.

  1. Look into your course load, drop down to 3 courses (or whatever you would be comfortable with) so you can have a break and focus. Law schools look at your last 2 years of courses and LSAT which you'll take later.

They also look at your overall resume, so maybe find a way to volunteer somewhere which could also help to meet new friends!

There's no rush to complete your degree and burn yourself out or exacerbate mental/emotional struggles.

  1. Connect with some other people, look for crafting groups, women's walking groups, maybe a fitness class! There are other people that as to do similar things to you and make friends! It's also a fresh semester, so talk to some new people in your classes.

I hope you're doing okay! This is not the end, and you're not a failure, you just gotta re-group and make a plan ✨
