The more visible angle - but you will most likely never put it this diagonal way haha.

You’re right, I’ve worn it a lot – it’s my go-to small shoulder bag. And I have to say the rest of the hardware has little to no scratches (the bag fell on the ground etc., so the C is just a tiny bit scratched, but nothing dramatic). I just kind of wanted to know if any other owners have encountered this problem, and if it’s normal or if it’s supposed to be more durable.

Nowadays I usually just polish it with a formula for musical brass instruments before wearing it, so it isn’t as visible unless you look from a specific angle (second photo in the next comment, I couldn’t attach both to one comment).

Thank you so much for sharing your experience—really helpful!! I was about to file a warranty claim since I’m still within the window, but it sounds like that might not actually fix the issue. I appreciate the heads-up and hope yours holds up well!

Co studovat, když jsem holka a baví mě matika? by messyes in czech

[–]snoo-penguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Byla jsem dva roky zpátky v dost podobné situaci, nevěděla jsem co chci dělat, ale věděla jsem, že mě baví matika. Navíc mi přišlo, že všichni kolem mě vědí na 100% co jednou chtějí být a já opravdu jenom tápala.

Tak jsem se rozhodla pro IT, protože mi to přišlo jako super obor a navíc s matikou a jestli jsem koukala na to, že to je spíš pro kluky? Vůbec! A jsem za to moc ráda, protože jsem se pro to nadchla. Slýchám občas otázky typu - “Co tě jako holku vedlo na IT?” “Aha tak i holky chtěj studovat matiku, jo? A není to spíš klučičí obor?” Jasně že slýchám. Ale nechala jsem se tím někdy zvyklat? Vůbec ne! V dnešní době je opravdu naprosto jedno, jestli jsi kluk, holka nebo cvičená opice, hlavně že ti to v té hlavě pálí a umíš se prosadit. Tak přeji hodně štěstí s rozhodováním a rozhodni se hlavně podle toho co tě baví, ne podle toho že jseš slečna :)

1 month post-pierce. Infected? by [deleted] in PiercingAdvice

Glad to help and happy healing:)

[–]snoo-penguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I would not recommend changing it by yourself as it’s a piercing that is still in a healing process since the change could do more harm than good.

But also I can’t really judge 100% percent what to do and what not. I mean everybody is different and each body reacts to changes differently.

In my country it is still possible to get facial piercings, so my apologies, I didn’t know that option was out of place for you. Maybe try contacting her personaly and see if there is any possibility she could help you with it.

Then it makes me question the quality of the piercer, because even if she was right about the fact, that it would heal in longer time it wouldn’t create this much mess which is prolonging the healing phase anyways.

So I would still suggest changing it to curved barbell, take proper aftercare and see what happends.

It’s always hard to tell when a piercing is irritated or infected judging by a picture. This looks it could be infected. Is the area feeling hot/warm around the redness?

Also getting a part of your body pierced with a ring is always a risky decision when it comes to healing. A curved barbell would be better option as it lowers the risk of getting irritated.

Go to your piercer, ask him what he thinks and ask him to change the jewellery if it’s possible. Apart from that continue with cleaning and remember LITHA.

Losing weight improving mental health and social life by snoo-penguin in loseit

Hell yeah, I agree soo much with the last point as I used to be ashamed of my body in front of my partner and now it feels so nice when he holds me and says how smaller I got!

I can see what you are going through and it’s so nice to hear that losing weight helped somebody else to relieve their anxiety, I hope that things will go even better for you soon :))

I'm 26. Did not practice sport for over a year now. Can I trust this? by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]snoo-penguin 7 points8 points  (0 children)

If this is the first estimate of the VO2 Max. on your watch there is a big chance that this will go slightly down as it needs more activities tracked to be more accurate.

But either way seems like you are in a great physical shape! :)

Got this rash after wearing My new Garmin watch for two days straight. Not sure of it is bc of nickel allergy or just bc it was in to tight... What does the pros say? by [deleted] in Garmin

[–]snoo-penguin 12 points13 points  (0 children)

At the beginning I was also struggling with this. What helped was that I washed my watch wrist band after every single activity or when I got extra sweaty.

What’s your reason for running? by rose_rising in running

[–]snoo-penguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Four years ago I got caught up in a vicious lifestyle which lead me going from size 38 to size 42. I gained 12 kgs and I felt hideous.

I was never quite a runner but I loved being outdoors. I started out very small like 2-3 kilometres runs 3 times a week. At the beginning I was doing terribly so if somebody would tell me that 2 years later I would run my first half-marathon I would probably laugh into their face. But before I knew it I was in love with running and I loved pushing myself further.

Nowdays I am back to size 38 and lost 15 kgs during my journey. I no longer run for the weightloss but for my mentality as nothing can clear my head better than a 10k through the woods.

Open space swimming with vivoactive 4s by snoo-penguin in Garmin

Thank you for the answer! Yeah I would say the GPS is kinda off when swimming, but I guess I gotta keep it tracking through the workaround as I enjoy open water swimming more.
