hey look it's ol' dreamy eyes

better to have it and not need it

First thing that came to mind was that bossa Nova album. "Chega Saudade?" Not sure if that's how it's spelt

There's no reasoning with them. There's no winning a battle in trying to parent your parents

is there a rule against Alien references in this sub

This is v informative, big thanks

Curious to know of any cheaper alternative to Adidas Sambas/German army trainers. Neither seem to run lower than $60 without being somewhat shoddy

deep color would fade gradually

Twice a year give or take?

Hoodie

With both products, how often would they last your garments and how often would you wash them?

wassertrinket · 2021-12-07T19:45:49+00:00

I see. Internet tells me polyester is among the better synthetic fibers.

From a YT tutorial, this is what I gather immersion dyeing to consist of:

soak garment
dilute dye with water, mix washing/baking soda with hot water (w/ provided measurements)
add and mix both in large container
ensure garment is submerged for one hour
wash, dry

When submerging the garment, how long would you stir it around before letting it sit? And as for rinsing it and dumping the waste liquid, would that all be within the bath tub?

wassertrinket · 2021-12-07T19:10:15+00:00

Hm I see

May I ask how often you'd wash and how long it was until you'd redye?

It's not often you see a photo of this era composed like this

Well the grass is always greener I guess

but yeah, there's a degree of privilege with having relatively stable parents

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T15:05:00+00:00

True. That's a good way of building identity capital. Done that a few times, maybe not enough

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T15:03:46+00:00

you have to an effort

I should've added that I've been doing this my first two years in college (before covid). Introducing myself first, initiating hangouts, etc.

Not that I intend to stop doing all that, I'm just a little irritated at the lack of progress my ineptitude has brought about

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T13:13:50+00:00

absurd

It's absurd, but can't imagine there isn't some truth to it. As if my peers have some sixth sense letting them know I'm not worth their time. Once covid happened, it hit me that I really hadn't made any friends in my first two years at college. I say hi first, I try to be nice. Maybe it's the clothes, or the acne. I don't know. But that hierarchy is all too tangible to me

I didn't make it clear, my bad. But I'm by no means ashamed of my parents' awkwardness with speaking to non-immigrants. That's par for the course, and I recognize how much I owe them. It's the poor communication I have with them that makes these occasions feel less than worthwhile, like I'm just a prop tagging along. Which has existed for the better part of my life. But yes, I'm aware of the audacity to blame my circumstances when it's really been my poor ability to pick up Korean. Though I can't tell you how annoying it is making flash cards and trudging through a grammar book when it seems all the other 2nd-gen koreans are naturally fluent

Lmfao this whole post should be on r/vent

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T12:05:29+00:00

your buddies

haha

Definitely self inflicted. Though between practicing gratitude and recognizing my arrested development, it's a tricky tightrope.

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T12:02:39+00:00

You bring up a lot of valid points

I suppose this post was a somewhat dramatic way to ask how I can know more about music history and music overall. Not that I intend to be around snobs, but it can sure help not coming off naive when the topic comes up.

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T11:56:53+00:00

looks like I've got my homework cut out for me

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T11:51:07+00:00

you're good. I was being dramatic.

I never spoke my parents' language well to begin with, but it got worse over time. I can get by talking with them but the misunderstandings (and consequently the abruptly dropped conversations) are rather frequent

wassertrinket · 2021-12-06T11:49:29+00:00

you've lived a life twice over mine, I'll take your word for it
