Wait, what’s the thing with her hair? I must have missed that in the story. Is it just that it wasn’t typical NY socialite hair or something?

OH MY GOD I love this, I am so excited! When I travelling through SE Asia I had cards in each language with a list of common items I couldn’t have (i.e. soy sauce) which really helped.

!! this makes me so happy, I’m celiacs with a dairy intolerance too and always thought I’d never get to Italy bc I thought the food issue would be too much of a pain... that’s great that you found it easy!

Nz-er here, currently drinking a cider in the sun (it’s still 25 degrees at 8pm!) and listening to the birds post-bbq dinner. Love it!

Thanks for the great idea! I’ve been struggling with working out too since I started working full time and I’ve been overeating lately, from a combination of work stress and personal stress. I’m the heaviest I’ve ever been, and even though I’m still “skinny” by mainstream standards I just don’t feel good about myself.

This is the sweetest and most trusting thing I think I’ve ever heard, I’m glad you found him!

23y/o here who is highly protective of her cd collection! My car has a cd player and an aux but I mostly play cds. If I want a particular song I’ll plug my iPod in but 9 times outta 10 I have a cd going. I find driving around to be the best way to listen to new albums and I don’t like the idea of not ‘owning’ the…

Thanks for the response. Yeah I’ve got a new job and a new kinda weird relationship-type stress that I think I’ve been coping with by trying to control my eating. I got into this great relationship so I was really happy and stress-free hence the healthy eating and exercising, and now it’s gotten a bit weird/confusing…

Hi Jezzies, I have a question!

The best thing to do in uncertain job periods is to try to upskill yourself, so it sounds like you’re on the right track with Adobe Premiere. Sucks about your Youtube fellowship- I’m sure there’s something else out there for you! Seems like you have a great relationship with your bosses there so that will speak…

Oh my goodness, I’ve been feeling really baby-mad recently and that photo just made me cry a wee bit. What a sweet angel. I’ll light a candle for you both- Catalina is a beautiful name btw.

THANK YOU that is such a perfect explanation and push for me. I’m exactly like that, former perfectionist afraid of failure, and I’ve been making little steps recently to get unstuck! So thanks for the little reminder that I’m on the right track and someone else feels the same :)

I’m there with you right now! Was a barista for 5 years during my college career and after some freelance work that I only got through a family connection, have lucked into a job in my field. It’s really hard to find work after college these days so good luck. I also keep getting hit with waves of like, what the fuck…

It seems like you recognise that there are some issues in your relationship, as you mentioned in your replies that there’s no emotional support, your friends and his recognise there are problems, and you think you shouldn’t be together. Don’t get hung up on over the label of “abuse,” it’s probably not helpful right…

Yep my motivation just jumps out the window when it’s rainy or cold. I’m starting a new job in what will be my country’s winter and I’m really hoping it doesn’t kill my new-job enthusiasm too early!

Yeah that Colourpop sale is tempting me... I’ve got a full cart after wiling away a an afternoon picking and researching colours but the exchange rate for me is a bit too painful to be completely gung-ho about it. I can afford it but it feels rather extravagant to drop ~$70 on a makeup brand I’ve never tried. Let us…

So I met a cute girl at a party two nights ago and we ended up kissing on the street at 4am after she walked me to my taxi (the complete opposite direction to where she was going) because we didn’t want to leave each other. She’s really beautiful and funny and interesting and we can talk so easily. It’s been a really…

Thanks for introducing me to that poem- that opening paragraph is so good, albeit a bit chilling.

FUCKING YEAH that’s sick, congratulations!

Sharon Stone would have been such a good actress for that role. She’d give me goosebumps.
