First of My Name Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 My avatar is already sort of a cartoon character, I guess... Happy belated birthday, Sidious!

Not to the 30 year old one? What if he were very good-looking? It is always nice to see you here. How is life? Pretty good! I'm very busy, but mostly with fun stuff. I quit hockey and my job back in my parents' city and have now found a job in a new restaurant here. School's going alright, and my social life is going surprisingly well, though there's not much to report in the love department And you? I need updates on everyone here.

Now that I have my own room even sitting down to watch Netflix has become something extremely cool. I still rarely cook or wash stuff, but I'm getting there How are you?

Heading out to California to visit my brother. looking forward to being warm. Not washing stuff is a good side of moving out - at first. Eventually you'll want to get to that, but no hurry.

Buckwheat Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 I thought not ironing was the good side of moving out. I mean, when (if ever, at this point ) I finally move out, I am going to find a middle ground between not ironing and ironing everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As my best friend would say, only those iron who can’t hang the laundry on a rack properly. (This sounds way shorter and cooler in my language ) @First of My Name thanks!

So I think shirts, shorts, skirts would mostly still need to be ironed. But even if I get myself an iron and an ironing board once, I will not be ironing underwear, pyjamas, bed linen, t-shirts that I only wear at home and other stuff that isn't worn on the outside not does not look wrinkled even when not ironed.

I think it depends on the material. I don’t iron jeans and most of my blouses, shirts are made of fabrics that do best without ironing. Skirts are of course something you can’t really, though I don’t have a great many skirts. Jumpers and sweaters also depend on the material but most of them don’t need ironing. I do iron bed linen however, I just can’t bear to put on crinkled duvet covers that looks like I never washed it. Also cotton T-shirts, mine always look awful without ironing.

I mostly have cotton shirts and those need to be ironed, as you said. And my blouses are horrible when not ironed. Most sweaters don't need it, you are right. And you shouldn't iron them too hot anyway, it harms the material. I think that ironing bed linen is way too much work for the result. Sure, it feels great to lie down on fresh sheets and covers that are so nicely straightened out, but the next morning, it is all crinkled again. So I don't think it is worth it. My mother says we do it because it folds nicer then, so it is easier to stack it in the closet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for bed linen, I agree it’s a lot of work but on the bright side they are easy to iron (as opposed to a shirt) and they aren’t too bad the next day either. I usually change the bed linen every other week, they last quite all right in terms of being crinkled. Speaking of, I need to get a couple new sets of bed linen too.

What a great time! They were so kind and fun, they made us make a choreography we sang Happy Birthday to their manager and the atmosphere was great. Oh, and I waited to greet them at the end for like an hour they took a group pic with us (like 30 people). I was a little bit shy to say something, oh my, he is so handsome in person but I greeted Will Oh, I wanted to go to see Florence and The Machine next month but it was very expensivee :S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Florence isn’t too expensive here, Fleetwood Mac was though it was over £300 for a ticket but I thought it’s now or never to see them. Are you a bit Bastille fan then?, for newer artists I quite like Royal Blood, they’re really good especially for a 2 piece. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much of a problem, since I liked them all, not surprisingly. Nah, I just discovered them by chance around 10 months ago. I don't know Royal Blood, is there any song you could link to recommend? :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RhaenysBee Posted March 1, 2019 Share Posted March 1, 2019 *crawls out of her grave bed* why oh why do I have to be somewhere at 8am on a Friday? how is everybody on this bright cloudy and early morning? ETA: first errand check, horrible coffee also check. Why in the world would you ever put sugar into a melange? Eta2: Google Search just offered me tanks instead of a language course. eta3: also, I’m freezing to death today which is quite surprising after yesterday’s 20C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
