Hit by a car whilst crossing a crosswalk/zebra crossing

Hi all im not from australia, so im not too familiar w the laws around here. I am an international student, and was walking across a crosswalk when i was hit by a car (going ~50-60kmh). When i came to, the ambulance was called and i didnt manage to get the drivers license plate and contact information, and his windshield was cracked from the impact.

I will admit that i was calling someone while crossing the crosswalk but i remember making eye contact w the vehicle before i crossed and i (stupidly) assumed he would slow down.

Apparently police was called but im not sure if they know whether to contact me since i was in the ambulance already. Ive been in hospital for a few days, with fractures on my collarbone, pelvis, and spine.

Just wondering what are my next steps? Who do i contact etc? Is he liable for my medical fees?

I think i killed my father

Tw sa among other things

Its been keeping me up at night for the longest time and i feel crazy to still think about this again.

When i was 14, I used to be on suicide watch so i had to sleep in the same bed as my father, because everytime i slept on the floor i would try to do some stupid shit like harming myself. I woke up to him groping me, kept pushing him away, it would always come back. It became a huge thing, cps and police and psych wards and everything and if i could turn it back i wouldnt say or do a thing. I dont even know for sure if it really happened anymore.

He died when i was 15, i dunno maybe everything that happened wasn’t good for his heart. Beyond all the sa things, i wasnt a good kid, not really sure why though, nothing traumatising happened to me before that. Felt that i killed him somehow. At the funeral so many snide remarks, two of my cousins (of opposite genders) sitting next to each other told to seperate lest a sexual assault allegation surfaces (12 and 14 btw).

Im 19 now. Learnt a few months ago about parasomnia sexsomnia or whatever. Basically you just do these kinda things when you sleep. Felt horrible. Why why why… why did i do all this. Im so old and im still thinking about this,, why did i kill him????? It pnlyhappened once or twice anyways what does it matter..

How to prevent lifting after a week?

Swipe for illustration

Without fail, my nail polish will start lifting at the cuticle area within a week (starting from my pointer finger - which i assumed was becausethe nail was flat)

Prep that i do:
Roughen up the nail
Dry w acetone
Put acid free base
Put base coat then construction gel then reinforcement gel.
Then top coat under the nail free edge (to prevent water absorption)

Is it because of my products? Or are my nails too thick/thin? My gel polish never touches the cuticles as well. Please help thank you….

Could this be a tick bite?

Travelling in eastern china (shanghai etc) this is the bite after 4 days, it seems to be getting larger, was quite itchy, now not so much. Its very hard and inflamed to the touch. Should i get on antibiotics or something ?

Literally impossible to contact my hotels.. help!!

On my trip to shanghai/hangzhou, ive booked 3 major hotels. I was planning on ordering my taobao things and having them sent there, so i wanted to make sure the hotels were okay with it.

I tried so long to find a number, from trip.com, to on google, then copy pasting the address on baidu maps. Which all yielded different numbers (which i all called, but didnt get through).

So i copy pasted each number to wechat to see if i could wechat them instead. User not found 😭. Ive done this for all 3 hotels..

What can i do at this point 😭 any advice is welcome

Looking for advice on how to style this top!!

Thrifted the cutest vintage top (pic 1) and i wanted to know what to wear underneath it. I tried wearing camisoles and lace coverups but it looks a little too matronly. I cant wear it without a cover up as it would expose half my bra.

I found some other people who have a similar top and im not sure how they make it look so good without being too revealing 😭😭 (pic 2 and 3)

If both my parents passed away, how would i finance uni?

*purely hypothetical, just looking for advice before it (potentially) happens.

So to give a little background, a parent of mine passed away, so my family lives on a single income. I’ve been realising about how stupid i was to put myself in this precarious situation of CHOOSING to go to overseas uni to study med where its like half a mil…

I’m only in first year, and every time i think about the amt of years i have left before i can start working i just think about the risk of my remaining parent passing away and having no way to finance my schooling.

If that happened, should i return? my highest recognisable sg qualification is o levels at my big age. or should i stay? Who would loan me 500k? I am not particularly intelligent, just average. Theres no way im getting a scholarship (esp as an int student). What about my siblings? Theyre still young, i dont want to allocate all our funds to my study.

Just wondering if anyone has gone through this before. What move did you make 😭??

I understand that this post is highly specific. So if you know me… hi…

For the past two weeks ive been doing absolutely nothing. I said id give myself a breather but now im behind on my lectures, sleeping 16 hrs a day, missing tutorials, dishes piling up, trash bags everywhere (it seems im building a neckbeard nest).

PDO thread for alar base reduction? Any experiences?

I came across this technique called alar bunching method/cat whiskering, where a barbed pdo thread is inserted one side of the nostril, all the way to the other side and does a loop back, and tension is created to reduce nostril flaring. Theres also another method where a single pdo thread is inserted, the nostrils are pinched, and the thread is pushed back into the alar.

Has anyone tried this technique before? Im interested in your thoughts.

Hi all, im not very familiar with this community and i want to be as open and as respectful as possible. If i say anything that can be misconstrued please let me know.

My friend recently came out mtf and is on her transitioning journey. She has changed a lot and as her friend im doing my best to support her. I’m not sure if im overreacting but recently, shes been using words like ‘bitch’ ‘whore’ and ‘foid’ (albeit sometimes jokingly) which makes me a little uncomfortable. I know some people can consider these words as slur against women. I know that since she is a woman she has the right to use them, but it rubs me the wrong way. I hope im not being transphobic in any way.

Currently as its standing, im not going to talk to her about it and risk our relationship.. but im just asking your thoughts on it.

As per the title. Due to personal circumstances i am unable to attend a wedding, i declined the invitation early on, so i have no reserved seat.

I am quite close to the bride (partners elder sibling) and would like to give them something out of grace. Would giving an ang pao or a wedding gift be more appropriate?

If wedding gift, what kind would you all have liked to receive?
