Feeling discouraged

I’ve been learning Spanish on and off for a few years. The same cycle happens each time - get close to a B1 level, something happens to discourage me (e.g when I visited Mexico and I couldn’t understand anyone) and I stop my practice, dropping back down to an A2. Then I have to start building it back up again.

Recently I’ve been really focusing and putting a lot of effort into my practice, more weekly hours than I’ve ever spent on it and I could see myself moving back up to a B1 level again. However today in my group Spanish class the teacher paired me up with someone who really struggles to speak and would probably be around a weak A2 level “because we were the same level”. This bummed me out so much. I don’t like to compare myself to others but I really thought I was coming along well and to be told that my level is still so beginner was such a kick in the teeth. I hope it was just because we were both the weaker students in the class (which was B1/B2 level) but I can feel the doubt creeping in again. I always struggled with languages, they were my weakest subjects in school and I feel like I have to work extra hard to make any progress.

Does anyone else relate?

Sunday parking near Aviva

Hiya,

I’m working in the Aviva on Sunday from 10am until late in the evening. Is there somewhere to park nearby fairly cheap? Or given that it’s a Sunday could I be so lucky to get free parking somewhere?

Thanks!

Is this a normal amount of hair to lose after washing?

I only wash my hair once or twice a week. In between those days, sometimes I brush it, sometimes I don’t bother. But this is roughly how much hair I lose from washing and brushing post was.

Also worth noting I’m not a natural blonde 🥴

I’ve recently had my bloods done and I have low B12 so have started to take a supplement in the last week or two. My ferritin level is also on the low side of normal but the doctor hasn’t recommended a supplement because it’s still considered “normal”.

Any advice?

How are we getting our Tretinoin without a prescription?

So…how are y’all getting Tretinoin without a prescription? Or if you have it with a prescription then how do you get it from your doctor if you don’t have acne?

G Adventures - Central American Journey: Rainforests & Ruins

Hey!

Has anyone done this G Adventures trip and can give me an insight into what it was like, particularly about the travel between places, was it long and did you feel like you had enough time in each place?

Also interested to know if anyone did this trip and also did the add on hike to Acatanengo Volcano. It seems it's not an overnight hike and I guess just up and down in the one day which is kind of disappointing because I would love to see the volcano at sunrise! Any experiences here would be very helpful :)

Thank you!

Offering English (all levels) - Seeking Spanish

Hola todos!

I'm 33F, a native English speaker and seeing a Spanish exchange partner hopefully longterm. I enjoy chatting about all subjects and in my spare time I like to read, watch TV series and go to the gym. I love travel and I'm hoping to spend a few months in Madrid later this year to really help with my Spanish speaking.

I'm at a B1 level although I'm out of practice with speaking so that could be around A2 until I brush up! I'm happy to exchange all levels of English or if there's something specific you need to improve your english for (e.g a job interview etc) then I can help with that.

Muchas gracias!

Help with under eye area

Hey! I’m 34 and overall pretty happy with my skin. However I’m looking for any tips or advice about my under eye area. This is just after applying SPF. I’m not sure what the spots are on my under eye bags either. If you think it’s dehydration, can you be more specific with what you think would help that?

Current skincare routine:
AM: SPF (sometimes moisturiser underneath if I’m not wearing foundation)
PM: double cleanse, alternate retinol/ hyaluronic acid/LRP Cicaplast baume, followed by moisturiser

Thank you

SPF 50 help

Hey! I’ve been trying to find my one true love holy grail SPF 50 after I discovered Bondi Sands SPF 50 I had been religiously using failed which.co.uk UVA/UVB tests (link at the bottom)

What I’m looking for in an SPF product
- Use for face and neck
- Sits well under makeup
- Fragrance Free
- Good for dry/sensitive skin
- No eye sting
- Good protection UVA/UVB
- Available in a bottle minimum 150ml (so frustrating all the face SPFs are only available in 50ml, such a rip off!)
- Is less than €30 per bottle

🙏

Hiya,

Is there anyone organising a pick up or social basketball session anywhere in Wexford? I don’t want to join a club but would be great to get to play somewhere!
