so you think you know chipotle? Is this real, or homemade?
what’s your guess?

I really miss Ethiopia! I grew up in america from when i was 7 years old (now 24), and I got to go back to ethiopia for the first time in 2020 and it was really a nice experience for me. I just feel happier there it’s hard to explain. Maybe it’s because I like being around my family…
But, I do love the comfort and convenience I am afforded living in the US, and I have a stable job here (without a degree) so I’m not yet sure.
When I saw how addis has been rly renovated, it gave me hopes of going again, permanently.
I still have my old ethiopian passport but I read I forfeited my ethiopian citizenship when I became a naturalized american, is that true? Or am I still an ethiopian citizen? (i was born in ethiopia)
I speak amharic pretty well, but I can’t read or write in amharic. I do plan to learn now, but will this be a problem in the meantime?
I obviously need to have money saved for the move, but how much money (in usd) will i need really? I would ideally like to live in addis in a safe area (i’m a woman planning to live alone or with one family member). maybe like a two bedroom situation so I can have my family visit because they live in nazareth/adama.
Would living in nazareth be better in some ways than being in addis? How does adamas city living compare to addis?
Is there air conditioning And heating* in the new build? i don’t think i can survive without consistent ac, electricity, hot/cold water. How often will I be inconvenienced in ways like this truly?
I’m also really scared of driving there I am used to american roads in an especially calm city, is driving more orderly now? And would it be better to import a car or to purchase one there?
and work! should i try to find a work from home job in america that I can do from ethiopia? Is the internet consistent?
Or is there work opportunities there? Maybe i can tutor students?
These are the questions I have, thank you soo much if you can answer even one!!!
rly dude? and i was stupid enough to pay for the parts AND labor the first time bc he said he fixed it only for the same problem to happen the next day… can i get a refund pls
I received this in my email and I haven’t been following along too much with the changes they’ve been making, but I feel guilty about that and I would really like to get involved, especially as someone involved in solar power.
Right now, I’m just trying to educate myself on exactly what this is saying, but are there groups organizing to attend this? I think it would be easier to get involved if there was something I could join.
Also, do you think a good turnout will impact the outcome? I would still go regardless, but I’m just wondering what you all think will happen, (or maybe I’ve misunderstood what this is)
Thank you!

can anyone tell me what this herb is called in english? Do you like it in your coffee? I personally think I do like it but I wouldn’t want it every day.
I wouldnt rly call myself a looks maxxer or anything but ig i do like to look better. I dont like thin sparse brows on myself, so if anyone is in the same boat and is down for a super casual LIFE commitment, i used minioxidil 5% to grow my eyebrows.
At first i used it twice a day, morning and night. Now i only use it at night because they are getting too thicc and i only want to maintain, and you will need to use it FOREVER or your brows will just revert to how they were before (ask how i know :p). i am ok with this its just a part of my skin care routine now no biggie to me personally and no side effects in the year ive used it. Tbh i just realized i should probably switch to 2%… maybe try that instead.
Bonus lash tip: DIY lash lifts are really easy to do and reallly brighten up your eyes. In the first picture I had a lash lift and no mascara, while the bottom picture was with no lash lift. this is something i only do when i wanna do something *extra* tho because a lash lift only lasts a few months and its a subtle difference. if you are interested in this, i suggest you get a lash lift kit that has the products in mulitiple invidual packages so you dont have to worry about storing it.
those are my two simple tips sry if it was obvious but hope it helps someone!
The tension between me and bleaching my eyebrows is so intense right now. I really love how they look with most makeup looks. The days when I don’t have work and get to frolic around in the world looking just how I like my character to look is a simple pleasure of life. when I was looking at my pictures, it made me realize I always do a nude or pink lipstick look. I definitely need to experiment more with my lipsticks. I’m not sure what would have looked good with these looks other than what I did though. (i’m not that good at makeup i just think it’s fun)
anyways just thought I’d share my make up. Thank you. <3

I have no problem with smoking weed, i do it, we live in recreational state. but dealing seems a whole different thing to me not sure if I’m being dramatic but I feel i shouldn’t be involved with a a dealer of anything. especially considering the fact that he genuinely did not mention this to me before. seems intentional because while i do smoke, when we first met he was so surprised i did and said i didn’t seem like the type to smoke, and that i seem like a “good girl” who doesn’t do that stuff.
so yeah, his friend was just being an awful sleazy guy trying to get between us, but I guess it’s working only bc this guy is not so honest either.
sry its long tldr at bottom
Ive been seeing this new guy, bf in quotes bc we have decided to court exclusivley but like it hasnt been long, only been just over a month now. its been nice so far and hes been treating me so well!
BUT after we spent all of the last weekend hanging out i have felt hes been acting different. he was fine saturday when we were alone but he was in a grumpy mood on sunday but to be fair, we were out in the hot sun and he wasnt getting in the pool lol. hes been a bit more dry then i have known him to be this whole week. im trying to think hes just been busy (trying to be rational) but when i was trying to make plans for this weekend on the phone last night he said he had plans and was vauge but he would be happy to see me sunday. weird but fine (IM CHILL)
so today (saturday, the day he is busy) he was texting me pretty normally again, complimenting me and was excited to see me tmrw. then i see him on his guy friends instagram just chilling by the pool with everone, like we did last sunday... so i was invited last week to the same thing but this week im not? literally as i was watching the story i get a dm from this same guy friend of his that he is LITERALLY WITH saying whats in the ss.
i think the reason he says "i respect that your respectful" is because he was lowkey coming on to me last week, i think? the thing that guys do where they arent directly flirting but it feels weird? constantly looking at me (dont be a creep at the pool pls) but when he was complimenting me i thought it was too much. i run a tight ship so i put on my big girl boots and told him (privatley) that i was uncomfortable and he was like cool ill stop and that was the end of that. my bf saw me talking to him ig cuz when i went over to him he joked that im way too friendly? idk what i responded tbh but he was like im just kiddingggg.
fast forward to him acting weird then these dms.
tldr: my bf has been distant and his friend texted me that he is disloyal
i randomly found this restaurant on sunset and durango called GYU Plus (i was on my way to chipotle, saw this restaurant and and made had a random change of heart to try it). i went in and originally planned to order the rice but then decided to try what their actual specialty was lol. so i got thier spicy chicken katsu sandwich with potato chips side. WOW. genuinely the best chicken sandwich i ever had. when i went the place was EMPTY. but very meticulously clean and the staff were super friendly! when i went in the second time he even remembered my name.
edit:every time I went in person it was perfect, but I just ordered delivery and they forgot my drink lol.
i hope you all give this sandwich a try! or does everyone already know about it and now i look silly?
s.
(second and third pic before i had my headboard delivered)
the process of making this was very cathartic for me and fun
i devoured this i fear
