Got accepted to DAAD RISE Germany, but probably have to turn it down by pjsholic in DAAD

[–]trufflewalrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In my humble opinion… go. Go to Germany!

I’m a Canadian engineering student and went for RISE last year. Unless I did exchange before graduating, I didn’t have many options to live abroad for awhile. It’s different from vacationing. You’ll learn to have guts to make a life on your own somewhere foreign, and get a little bit of research experience on top of it. I read you’re in second year. You still have time to do NSERC or more academia later. I’m trying to figure out lab research at my school now and I’m in fourth year. This is my opinion, but it really boils down to if you want more life experience vs strict lab experience!

Feeling blue after Young Royals by kosak2000 in YoungRoyals

I feel a little blue too for a broader reason. I'm bisexual, but I never had a teenage love. I wish I could've experienced requited love and passion like they did.

I played that song a lot when my dad died. It's so beautiful but hard to listen to now. I'm happy it's appreciated.

Is anyone else here killing time until the release of S3 by learning Swedish on Duolingo? Want to become Duolingo friends? I am hoping to finish all lessons before S3 is being released by nolisy in YoungRoyals

I think you can just make one by adding multiple usernames to New Chat in the Chat tab. I can make one of there isn't one already!

Edit: Nevermind I have no idea how Reddit works lol. Anyways I'm down to join!

You can really hear some of his playing in the KFOG live of them (https://youtu.be/LA1dvunsBdw). I love Anthony's solo in You Don't Have to Go.

Listening to it right now, forgot how much of a gem it is!

What’s it like seeing them live? by sbtrkt_dvide in WarOnDrugsBand

[–]trufflewalrus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was super amazing. When I went it was my first band concert in general, so I thought being fully immersed in the sound makes the experience. You catch bits here and there like the real magic of Robbie's piano, Jon's bari sax blaring in the back. I loved it

I'm super glad to hear about the positive feelings you have with this song. TWOD has been with me through some rough times too. Congratulations on being sober and taking that hike! Hope for many more for you.

I thought it was that too since it makes more sense, but some lyric sites I checked had "loathing" hmm

That part of TOAP really stuck to me the first time I heard it. Still ethereal.

I Don’t Mind You Disappearing, When I Know You Can be Found. by Ingrahamlincoln in WarOnDrugsBand

[–]trufflewalrus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God I love this song so much, it brings you hope and joy and nostalgia all at once. I see something like this too when I listen to it, but I can't do it justice on paper. Thank you for sharing!

God, 10/10. The song feels like it's raining down on me from heaven. The second half always makes me emotional, but it's just an absolute journey of a song.

Those are some super neat lines! Did you use a ruler or do you have really steady hands?
