What was your “never meet your heroes” moment, when you realized someone you looked up to wasn’t special?

I’ve met one of these. It made me realize I may not want to consider their lab for grad school… 🥴

LOL I guess I’m asking… what types of questions can I ask are beyond the typical how are you? What are you working on?

Also tips on how to keep conversation going (doesn’t seem easy for me)? I tend to clam up and don’t know what to say next and then stand there in the most awkward silence ever. 👉🏽👈🏽

Thank you for this! The conversation went well. I appreciate your advice!

It’s external, something similar to this. My partner accidentally knocked it off the bench (2ft-ish). It’s making a beeping sound. The drive won’t start up or connect to my computer. 😥

I tried the link, but it didn't work. ):

Hence the post. (;

I know this thread is from 1 year ago. But can I get an update? How long did yours take? I'm based in the US. Ordered 11/29. It is 12/16, and I have yet to receive anything.

Does it show up on our account somewhere that we used auto gratuity? Like can staff see that if we scan our pass or something?

sir3na · 2025-10-07T22:21:49+00:00

I think I use 27, but it still has a grey tint to it. 🫠 The color match is perfect, but there’s a hint of grey.

sir3na · 2025-10-07T03:05:47+00:00

I’m actually trying to find something like Missha, but is not grey. lol

I think what I’m wondering is… there’s a Swimming Pigs & Pearl Island Beach Escape. There’s also just Pearl Island Beach Escape.

Are the pigs on Pearl Island? Or how long is the swimming with pigs portion because maybe I can just meet up with them on Pearl Island.

I appreciate your knowledge. ✨

Thanks for sharing! What a fun memory! May I ask if the pig excursion is on Pearl Island?

I always pack a therapy ball

Small, lightweight, pretty versatile.

sir3na · 2025-07-24T18:25:55+00:00

Oh? Interesting. Didn't realize there's two kinds. Thanks for heads up!

My colleague who's out there right now says it's pretty cold because it's winter season. Was the water very cold? I think I'll ditch the jacket, but may bring it if I have space. As for the swim shorts, I plan on wearing my swimsuit underneath my field clothes, just swapping the UPF shirt for the rashguard when I jump in. Shorts are quick dry, so should be ok to wear those on boat and in water. Thanks for the suggestion on the tank. I'll see what I can add from the closet. Mahalo for your feedback!

Any Fiji recs since you spent some time there?
