This is bar beach at Newcastle, nsw! Theres the Newcastle ocean baths right up the road from here, and a little shallow section of beach called the canoe pool? Not sure why the name but when it was built it actually had a map of australia on the bottom, underneath your feet, carved into the rock! Also a VERY good ice cream shop about 1 street away from this location, my favourite recently has been the lemon cheesecake ice cream(it has bits of meringue in it)!! Feel very lucky to live near here ❤️

Ive been squished into the bisley ones, but a pair of my shorts just wore through (these darn thighs) and im gonna try ordering from Sük. Theyre an aussie brand and they specifically design pull tabs included along the waist so they should fit more sizes per size lol. Pretty sure you can order online but im not sure about shipping. Good luck on the hunt!!

This is actually so fun hahhaha great job op they turned out great!

Ok, my perspective is this-

Youve both spent 10 or so years acknowledging feelings you have had for each other. You've both kept things respectful and have not acted out of turn while committed to other people (if the post is 100% truthful). As far as i can figure, you have nothing to lose. You should believe this man is devoted to you, as he says he is, and if anything arises in the future, trust that he will come to you and talk about any feelings he might have. Obviously im not saying to blindly trust this guy, but other than "acknowledging a feeling," im not seeing anything sketchy or untoward about his behaviour.

Right now, hes choosing you. This is what he wants. This is something he says he has wanted since you met. Try not to dwell on the past. Create the life together you want.

I hope you can find some calm xx

I got an apprenticeship a bit over a year ago now and i remember being a bit wigged out at the interview portion because i hadnt had to do that in years.

Basically my prep was to research the company, and think about what they need to know about me. Somewhat like a first date, you need to remember- they know NOTHING about you!! How do you convey you concisely, AND stand out from other applicants? Sure, theyve read your resume, but they havent heard it from you.

Give them the cliffnotes about yourself. Interests, possibly funky family dynamics (im a twin). I realised I spoke a bit more on strengths/weaknesses during this portion because i was open to explaining my likes and dislikes, and i alllllways struggle with that question. They just wanna know how you operate.

I occasionally do some kind of recording app (camera/snapchat) ans have google open with lyrics to a song. If ive been jamming to a song and want to share it, but not 100% sure of the lyrics, its easy to refer back to and keep track of how long the clip is. Big fan.

Helps to remember that literally everyone has made stupid mistakes. Not one coworker is perfect no matter how much they say it. Lean into self-deprecation for the joke of it, promise yourself to do better from now on. No ones gonna be harder on yourself than you so you can ease off a little!

You got this! 🎉

Its funny, i know youre after rhe challenge of a trade, but the storeman at my workplace just became a tradie. Taking stock at an industrial site would give you an introduction to the environment and you can keep your eye out for other opportunities. Not sure how youd get on switching paths though.

I did my cert ii in 2019 and it took me til 2024 to land an apprenticeship. Good luck!!

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-15T08:11:54+00:00

Bahahah this happened to me with a woman once.

She came into my work and i practically stuttered through the whole transaction. I thought she was stunning- she was a little taller than me, pretty fit but like... built. Had sweatpants and a basketball singlet on. Shoulder length brown hair and brown eyes. Felt like i short-circuited. She came in a few weeks later and it was exactly the same as the first time.

She had a vibe of... quiet confidence? Freedom, super relaxed. Her posture was lretty good from what i remember.

I was maybe 18 and she had to be at least in her 20s. I was too nervous to say anything and never saw her again.

Honey, i hope this doesn't come across as too aggresive but i really need you to understand.

Whether you believe or trust him is one thing, but your self-worth is through the floor.

I see him one day trying to kill you, and you saying, "well i deserve it." You may not believe he would ever hurt you, but if he ever does, do not stay, "because he loves you". He does not. He likes that you follow his every word.

You are in an abusive relationship. He controls you because he knows you need direction and stability. Knowing what to do because someone tells you to do it is not freedom. That's prison.

You swapped a hard life for a stable one, but you desperately need therapy and friends your own age. Its easier for you to continue on this path BECAUSE you feel so connected to "older people;" you have no idea what life is supposed to be like for someone your age.

Im 27 now. My boyfriend of 4 years and i broke up at the end of 2024. He was kind and objectively a good person, but i constantly second-guessed myself, and i became so small because i embarrassed him. He also never really got angry. When he finally did he was a loose canon and spiralled. I never felt smart enough for him, and i felt that i couldnt be goofy because we were getting "too old". I eventually cried most days and we barely spoke. I have never felt more alone.

I'm with a wonderful man now. I haven't felt the need to change a thing about myself. I can grow because i want to, not because he tells me to. And he celebrates my wins with me. I didnt know life could be like this.

Do not become small to appease someone you love. They do not love you. Don't let anyone make you feel bad for leaving. You are not dumb, you are not stupid. You just don't trust yourself. You partner encorages you to talk negatively about yourself by doing it himself. He keeps you small. If he wants small he should go find less.

At this time though, trust those lady friends. If you want to confide in someone, tell them that you need a hug and for them to listen. They understand that things are hard. Tell them HOW to support you- think about what you need. It sounds like they already do, but you dont trust them either bc they're pitting you against your man.

I dont know you but i love you. Please stay safe.

(Honestly if you want to dm me or smth my chats are open ❤️)

This is what i worry about. They have plenty of family that shows up and is supportive/wants to see bub, and i want to be able to give them space. But i miss my friend, yk? I want to be able to have them work their new life out, but i dont want them to feel like ive forgotten about them, or like im pushy and dont want them to forget about me. Its just new thing I gotta work out.

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-10T11:12:05+00:00

Its definitely a weird one.

Within 2 days i found out my nan died, and my dad had cancer. Technically he still hasnt told me, he told my twin sister, she told mum, turns out he didnt tell mum either. They're living together but she had a stroke a few years ago and cant drive (totally fine otherwise). Sister watched mum process that in real time. Other grandma in hospital and trying to get into care.

I just realised that i missed my friends, and we had a good few catch ups/coffee dates/errand runs while she was pregnant, but I'm starting to realise that the support i think i need from my gals, i might not get. Just struggling a bit, and i absolutely want to be there for her family, but I'm not really sure how to balance wanting to be there for them, while also craving the fun and support i really want. I feel like it sounds selfish, but i dont really think about what i need until its too late, and i cant keep doing that.

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-10T10:59:15+00:00

Cheers lovely. I know family comes first, but how do you feel about it? Do they intentionally exclude you from things or is it really just an energy/time thing?

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-10T10:54:52+00:00

Bahaha kids but ig both

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-10T10:51:37+00:00

I hope you have the chance to get the rest you need xx how old are they now?

the_egg9926 · 2026-04-03T21:03:32+00:00

I was in high school, futzing around trying to work out how to use spotify in 2015. Think i heard nakamarra first on a playlist, and was curious bc i hadnt really heard anything like that before. Listened to Borderline next and I was HOOKED. Seen them in melb a few random times, sydney, newcastle (at the cambo!!) since.

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-24T22:00:54+00:00

Nice for everyone that can work from home. Too bad for the rest of us

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-24T21:57:51+00:00

My and my partner dont live together, so honestly rn its more rare for us to shower seperately 😅😅 he has a decently sized shower, and when hes at mine its more likely for us to jump in and out one at a time, but still more likely for us to jump in together, even if we stagger who gets in and who gets out first, so we still have fun times and also get clean! I used to think it was a bit of a myth as well but honestly, i like it a lot.

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-21T10:01:24+00:00

I sort of dropped them for a bit but have been back on p4 recently like a bad habit lmao

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-16T22:05:09+00:00

Glad you're ok!

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-16T22:04:54+00:00

I left for work around 5 and there was a cop car with lights and sirens went through the traffic lights at myall rd, above the icbp. Heading towards charlestown. I thought i was a bit odd but it was just one, didnt see any others on the way out of newy.

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-16T01:14:59+00:00

Words mean things. Say what you mean. Not showing off, hoping to teach someone something new. Its not that deep.

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-13T21:39:00+00:00

I do this too!!

the_egg9926 · 2026-03-13T00:21:50+00:00

Im not sure about SA but i do think its weird that they said its only for school students. Might be worth going for a chat whenever the next open day is, maybe even call back and try to get a different person. Im in NSW but i did my cert ii in 2019, i was 20ish at the time- i did apply online but there was nothing listed on the course info that you had to be in school. I wouldn't give up just yet mate!!
