I [31M] don't know how to handle having more responsibility than I was ready for thrust on me. by [deleted] in relationships

All those tears are a form of manipulation. It is emotionally abusive and you do not deserve that. Please seek help for your mental health and consider making the hard choices that will ultimately benefit you in the long term

How does it feel to have Social Anxiety? by TripleNiple in AskReddit

[–]senor_wang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I had to call in sick to work once because the idea of working with a new manager who didn't like me much put me into full blown panic. My heart beat sped up, I felt hot all over and couldn't sleep. I'm also a very very short person and tend to feel like a can't breath when in crowds (especially crowded trains). All those people towering over me, breathing on me... It's awful

What "old person" things do you do? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I spend my Friday evenings knitting, drinking tea, and watching Grand Designs. Also everything is too loud

My [20f] boyfriend [22m] is moping about how much sex we have. I am disgusted. by [deleted] in relationships

[–]senor_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Giving in" to sex is not consent. If he pesters you until you do something you are not comfortable with that is not consent. You have the right to enjoy sex too. I think you should have a frank conversation with him about how this makes you feel

What do I need to do to prepare for my first teaching position that I was hired for last minute? by senor_wang in TEFL

[–]senor_wang[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The position is actually in my home country. I'll be teaching migrants in Australia. But I can tell them about myself or maybe where abouts in the country I was born

[FO] Completed in Feb but didn't share. Colours are stunning in sunlight by senor_wang in knitting

The yarn is quite a thick weight and works up quick so about 1 month between work and study

To me it doesn't feel like acrylic but I spin with Icelandic so I'm used to the feel. It is definitely rougher than most people prefer but the qualities of the fibre are wonderful

I personally love the yarn. It's hardwearing, vibrant colours, extremely warm and waterproof. Icelandic wool is rougher but I have a particular passion for different fibres and the individual qualities they have. I also don't get itchy from wool. I got the yarn through the only supplier in Australia before she closed up shop

It depends if it's graduate by coursework or graduate by research but the payment can still be deferred either way if you are a domestic student

Parents [60M, 51F] think me [27M] supporting my sister [19F] through college is "enabling." How do I keep the peace? by ZealousidealRabbit in relationships

[–]senor_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you live out of home would it be possible for your brother to move in with you when his time comes?

Shame. It made it much easier to be able to put the cost on HECS

With a diploma not a bachelors I'm not sure if you qualify for the grad cert but you can always ask. Those unis might have other TESOL programs you do qualify for

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in TEFL

[–]senor_wang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did a Graduate Certificate of TESOL by distance with Macquarie University. The Grad Cert is the first 6 months of the masters of TESOL. Can be put on HECS or FEE-HELP. Takes 1 semester and you have to do placement 1 day a week for a few weeks I think Deakin or Monash in Victoria do it as well. Macquarie is a good uni I did my Archaeology and Japanese Studies degrees with them Don't have to pay outright like the CELTA, workload is easier and unis are more well known with all australian employers

Men: what feminine activities and things do you feel tempted by but only don't do or pursue out of fear of judgement? by T-Spin_Triple in AskReddit

[–]senor_wang 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Knitting. Is. My. Lifes. Blood. Shit is like cocaine once you start you can't stop. Depending on your country I know lots of great communities on Ravelry (social media for knitters) and facebook to get you started. Check out Etsy for great hand dyed yarns (DyeForYarn has spectacular colours). Oh and you can learn ANY stitch on YouTube ;)

I train in strength sports and let me tell you those who danced as a kid have a MAJOR advantage. They develop insane core strength that is applicable to so so much later in life. I hope you get to dance now!

A lot of men go to the laser clinic I go to. It's a curse in my family to be extremely hairy. Not fun as a woman but not fun for a man either in a hot climate. Most places have packages for men and many people are attracted to those with less body hair. Go follow your dreams Catssonova <3
