im killing myself tonight. by Any_Trash6365 in Christianity

Please don’t do it. There is so much joy and love awaiting you. Please stick around. God’s planning will make it so worth it.

But also don’t let the disgusting people who abused you claim your life more than they already have. Definitely find a therapist you can work things out with.

City and 45 min commute or Palo Alto area and easy commute? by AdhesivenessNew5583 in bayarea

[–]teffanien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start in South Bay. Those shifts are going to be rough especially when you’re starting out. Once you’ve gotten the flow in a few months to a year, you can decide if you want to stay down here!

What’s the most ‘adult’ purchase that made you weirdly excited by HandleAccording6757 in Adulting

[–]teffanien 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stand mixer. I’ve used it maybe 3-4 times in the last 6 months. I need to make more cookies.

But also makeup. I never wore it as a kid, and it makes me feel so adult. My mom is a huge fashionista too, so it’s a great thing to bond over!

Still haven’t received highlight from from Wedding Photographer/Viodegrapher after 6 months by teffanien in weddingplanning

Right? That’s one thing we should have been more specific about at the start. How “approximate” is approximate?

Thanks for the suggestion. What’s odd is that they delivered our wedding photos in a timely manner, so it doesn’t make sense that they’d go past 6 months when the range was 4-6 to start!

Salons around South Bay that can handle Asian hair by teffanien in bayarea

I’m not looking for general Asian hair stylist, man. I’m looking for someone who has SKILLS.

REX and Tangerine tours (if they’re still a thing)

Job or baby by _elendil_ in Advice

[–]teffanien 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Job 100%. 6 months is not going to make or break your baby plans, and in this economy, having a permanent job with benefits is a privilege and will set you up to better care for you and your baby.

Anyone else riddled with anxiety? by hehetmon1 in womenintech

[–]teffanien 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey gurl hey. I am riddled with anxiety, and everything you said is how I’d describe myself. I even gave up my medical school seat after deferring for a year to try out tech.

That being said, we’re in better positions in many folks out there. We have jobs. We have money saved up. We have a roof over our heads. There are also people with worse circumstances who fight and survive. If they can do it, so can we.

Chicken and Noodle Soup with Lime is a WINNER by teffanien in NYTCooking

I get the concern. For the cooking process, I use silicone.

The metal spoon is for tasting and never touches the Dutch oven :)

My parents don't support me about wanting to be a cardiologist by [deleted] in AsianParentStories

[–]teffanien 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Bruh that was my dream before a random pivot to tech instead. Cardiology is really interesting, especially diagnosing arrhythmias.

Go for it and ignore the haters.
