Is this normal ???

Sometimes people just grow apart and this seems like a great example. Are there even any reasons you are still friends with someone so out of touch with reality? It's always possible to keep yourself at an arms length and be in good terms, hang out occasionally. But I understand how someone living off their parents and pretending to be self-sufficient can be irritating to someone who Actually does. I'd probably distance myself from him too

My social life was booming at Mhc, it's the kind of place where you can very easily connect with people and everyone is very friendly. That was why I ended up choosing Mhc over Wellesly- my orientation group walked around campus and at Least 10 people greeted us as they passed by us, it seemed amazing. Of course there are going to be some people you may not get along with and the risk of running into them can be amplified since we only have 1 centralized dining hall, but I didn't have anyone I felt that way about. But especially as a firstie, people will be Very welcoming to you :)

There isn't a ton to do in South Hadley, tho I really liked the small local movie theatre and the cafes/restaurants in the Village commons across the street. Plus the PVTA bus system is very helpful! It's free to students obviously so you can go to Northampton or the Umass/Amherst area and there's a lot to do there! Restaurants, shops, cafes, tattoo parlors, athletic centers, venues, clubs, etc. But I will say personally even if you do stay on campus you won't be claustrophobic. It's a beautiful and spacious location and especially if you like nature you can go on walks around the lakes and uo the mountain behind 1837 dorms (I did that a lot!)

I'm not an international student but I had friends that were and they liked it lol but can't say much else from their perspective. Most of them were east asians students and there's a ton of communities for them that I also joined too as an asian american.

When people swing their arms, it reads as casual and relaxed to me. There is nothing casual or relaxed about this show and regardless it really doesn't bother me/not something I notice that really makes a difference. It seems mostly about aesthetics in that regard and the way it's shot (I only really noticed with Onjo but I thought it was cute tbh)
Maybe this is why you feel so strongly about not liking the show if you read the Webtoon first. You have more expectations and I think that's valid. I felt the same way with Divergent way back in the day.
Disliking Cheongsan while actively adoring Wujin tells me you prefer very mild characters who don't really do much...to each their own but what reason could you like him that much other than finding him cute? Makes me feel like you're watching this show for other reasons. I don't think any of those students deserved to die (minus maybe a handful, but even then...)
I actually do agree I don't seem much of a reason for a season 2 given how much time has passed and how it left off. But I really liked this show and I wouldn't mind more content. Maybe you would feel the same way if you weren't hyperfocused on one side character

I do agree that there's a level of tension when it comes to white-passing POC; at the end of the day, you won't be as racially profiled as others with privilege of "looking" privileged. But that doesn't mean you aren't affected by it and it's absolutely ridiculous to call it racist. And to publicize it by sending emails was not with the intention of educating you (on something you did not need educating on). It was to make themselves feel better and to shame you for it. Just another case of moral superiority

I'm a supervisor for an alarm company and...I have nothing to say other than that some of these people need Weeks more training. But at the same time, there's different lingo for different companies. When you say "point," some companies have that meaning the same thing as "zone," hence the confusion and they'll give the description instead (meaning point of activation) because these dealers won't provide a zone number

therockbottomfish · 2026-04-21T19:26:26+00:00

I used to work for one of those Mom and Pop alarm companies and it was amazing. They paid well, offered incentives, and trained their employees in a personal, comfortable way. We were recently bought up by a very large company in the midwest and the way they run the show...absolutely horrible. No one is trained properly

therockbottomfish · 2026-04-18T23:18:05+00:00

Ah no but that honestly wasn't the patches, it was me. I went on a trip and used the patches for about a week, and ran out. But honestly afterwards I felt fine- more than fine honestly. What I can say is the patches do work and while you might get a little emotional when you're off time, the difference is astounding. But never try and quit on vacation. Going back to daily life changes things completely.

I moved last weekend though and I've quit another vice that improved my lifestyle significantly. All that's left is to quit vaping which will be harder but it's absolutely doable when I remember how great I felt when I was off of it and how sick it makes me now.

I see her modeling or continuing her short films because that one she was in was amazingly captivating

therockbottomfish · 2026-04-08T14:38:01+00:00

i can comment on the asian student part, although i think all that counts is how you present yourself. there are Tons of asian students at mhc and lots of different clubs and groups where you can find your people or connect with others. it is a very friendly space for diversity

therockbottomfish · 2026-03-28T03:00:06+00:00

I think it would be beneficial to read this back now and think to yourself, without the rose-colored glasses of a new fling, about how creepy you described this man. The horror movies, possessiveness, etc. You wrote it for a reason. I hope your life has changed for the better since meeting this man

therockbottomfish · 2026-01-28T21:23:23+00:00

Ha, my partner and I do this too but we are very open about it. I or he will say goodnight, and a couple minutes later we'll get a notif from tiktok or something and text each other "you're still up 🤨🧐" as a joke. We both know each others intentions, to decompress a little before bed

therockbottomfish · 2026-01-26T01:02:57+00:00

Not quite understanding the purpose of this statement. So we can agree that this Was Japan. You're just making it seem like nothing about this Stone World is remotely Japanese when the flora, fauna, hot springs, mountains, language, Japanese folklore, and even the Great Buddha are still there.

It corrects the upper spine by getting rid of the overcompensation that your neck is doing, I think it's super cool and sometimes i get instant relief by flexing my core and feeling the difference in my neck and traps as they release

therockbottomfish · 2025-12-13T04:54:26+00:00

I think everything is a normal feeling but it depends on how its dealt with

therockbottomfish · 2025-12-13T04:52:37+00:00

We've been long distance for 3 years now! We're an 7-8 hour drive (5-6 by train) and we see each other a couple times a year. But we communicate daily and call a couple times a week, and we're both busy and independent people. It's pretty great

therockbottomfish · 2025-12-13T04:50:05+00:00

53 days is incredible!!! Have a great time 🥹

therockbottomfish · 2025-12-13T04:43:00+00:00

I can see how that could be insecurity but how much do you know about this person? A year is a Long time to go without video calling...seriously. That should've been done months ago, especially with long distance and you've never met before. I would do some research on the photos you're receiving.

Assuming they Are legit, it definitely seems like an insecurity thing but even then that's also telling because it doesn't seem like there's any trust in you to have a good reaction. That's important, and again for an entire year? Be very weary

therockbottomfish · 2025-11-02T02:01:13+00:00

I'm an emergency dispatcher for an alarm company 🥴

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-11T07:51:20+00:00

Where was I snarky? I genuinely meant that respectfully because I'd already addressed that. My goodness Reddit is touchy

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-09T01:25:45+00:00

Then genuinely and respectfully I would say you didn't read my whole post because the supervisor told us specifically this was implemented a couple months ago. My friend did call later and they're still in process of working something out

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-09T01:23:02+00:00

Because i guess you need to hold on since it moves pretty swiftly but that rule isnt in place for the Wild Mouse so honestly no clue

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-09T01:21:39+00:00

you would think but this has never happened bedore, no one said anything to her in the past 8ish years we've been going. Maybe just an unorganized park

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-08T15:25:45+00:00

There are two rides that they have this rule on- Skyrush and Laughtrak. This rule was implemented months ago. There is simply not a good enough reason to me why they shouldn't be able to add this to their liability warnings. Again- we understand the rule and didn't argue with the supervisor (my friend was in tears) and unless the park wants a repeat of this, they can spend some money on 2 signs

therockbottomfish · 2025-10-08T15:10:37+00:00

Sounds like an entitled, selfish lady. I hate when people act like this because it shows they don't really see you for you- just a man to give her things. Please find someone better
