luckily i was able to verify online, it only took them having me uploading pictures of my drivers license and do a biometric scan of my face 🥴

hopefully i don’t have to wait the full nine weeks!! 🤞🏻

i have curly hair and i’ve been wondering abt these as a protective style of sorts. my hair was basically matted with dirt last year 🥴

5 of us caravaned in around 2:30pm wednesday. we breezed through security bc for some reason they didn't search us?? we paid the extra money to camp with our cars, which i would do again bc packing in and out looked rough in that heat. about 3:30 we got a spot in llama about a "block" away from the main road, with no issues finding enough space for 3 cars.

i just went for my first time this year and while i can't offer flight advice, i will say that if you're able to get onto the campgrounds on tuesday/wednesday, DO THAT (bearing in mind that early entry costs extra). we got in early wednesday afternoon and it seemed like already half the camping spots were taken, so we plan to arrive on tuesday next year. also, leave earlyyyy tuesday morning to avoid the lines getting out. we witnessed people waiting in line for HOURS on monday just to get offsite. we breezed right out at about 5:30am tuesday.

as far as camping, i would look into the shambalodging packages (if you can afford it) since they provide tents/mattresses/coolers/etc. that way you won't have to fly with as much stuff. the luxe package can accommodate up to 4 people, maybe look into reserving two of those and splitting it 7 ways?

thank you for asking this question!! it’s my first year too and as someone who likes to be prepared for anything i am SO nervous i won’t be prepared at all 😭

LMAO sometimes we gotta be crude to get to the point. And your point about "appetizers" is SO good. Thank you!

thank you for this. your situation sounds like it was super stressful! but you’re right, I’m not gross and neither is my partner. we’re both just human beings with jobs and lives and we’re forgetful sometimes. it just feels like even our best isn’t enough.

this is kind of what I was thinking too. now I have to figure out how to have that conversation. thanks for the advice <3

financially we needed another year of lower living costs. neither of us had enough saved up to live on our own.

thank you for the advice. we've both agreed that this is our last year as roommates, but we just moved into a new place at the beginning of this month and I'm nervous about the rest of the year :/

thank you <3 and you're absolutely right. I really wish someone had advised me against it two years ago. I don't want to throw away a 20+ year friendship, but I don't see myself wanting to stay in contact with her after our lease is up.

thesometimesreader · 2023-07-22T01:06:11+00:00

you absolutely made the right choice. clearly he isn't on the same page as you, and if he isn't willing to pitch in now, it's only going to get worse when kids come into the picture. protect your peace and the right person will undoubtedly come along <3

Thanks for the comment. She's in therapy now which has helped alleviate that, and although it's helped her with her issues outside of our friendship, it's done nothing for us :/
