HECK YEAH! Go Sauce!!! Congratulations! I just recently completed my years-in-the-making college degree, after giving up and feeling like it was just never going to be possible. It's such an awesome feeling!I just got accepted to Liberty University! I'm going to complete my Graduate of Theology diploma that I started a long time ago.
Pics or it didn't happen.
Was rearranging my bookshelf the other day (taking unnaturally several hours in order to do so, for some reason), and rediscovered this. A book from my childhood. ^-^ Caught my eye because a coworker and I had been talking one time just a month or so ago where she mentioned books like this that she still remembered reading a lot as a kid, in particular Frog and Toad. ->

I have to wonder why you would still be in possession of that?
I had some Frog and Toad books when I was a kid, although I couldn't tell you which ones as I no longer have any of them.
Football season!Yessss! Excited for fall!
Some people just don't get rid of things.I have to wonder why you would still be in possession of that?
Would you be able to explain what you mean by 'less approachable.' Just curious.I have a singles conference in a few weeks and I'm already trying to decide what to wear... I have zero chillI tend to like dresses, but I'm wondering if that makes me less approachable for guys?

I’ve been told before by people once they get to know me that they initially thought I was either stuck up, high maintenance, or just scary because I always wear dresses and makeup. In reality I just love dresses and looking feminine and I have my routine down to about a 30 minute get ready time. Also dresses are way more flattering and I think you have to have a much cuter figure to get away with pants!Would you be able to explain what you mean by 'less approachable.' Just curious.
& what might a singles conference be?
No, dresses are good. It shows femininity & confidence in it, something men don't have & can't have.I’ve been told before by people once they get to know me that they initially thought I was either stuck up, high maintenance, or just scary because I always wear dresses and makeup.

Wow! Most churches would be terrified of that! At least branding it as 'Singles.'My church really embraces singles and has a whole ministry geared towards us. The conference is kind of the launch for singles small groups for the year and a way for us to meet each other. We worship together, have some breakout sessions, and have a dessert social.
Thank you for your perspective! And your suggestion seems sound, however I refuse to give up makeup because I’m frightening to behold without itNo, dresses are good. It shows femininity & confidence in it, something men don't have & can't have.
Yes, in some ways it does make you less approachable b/c it's not the standard, yes. (that's what I had thought you had meant). But if you embrace it & yourself, you will be more approachable! (a suggestion: go lighter on the makeup when wearing a dress or you will appear materialist & worldly.)

Although I must observe, that first-time reaction from these folk you know seems backwards to me. I would have imagined most would find you more approachable than the average lady with the way you dress, not less, and certainly not thinking you might have negative traits such as being stuck up.I’ve been told before by people once they get to know me that they initially thought I was either stuck up, high maintenance, or just scary because I always wear dresses and makeup.

Probably fair, tbh@TheRealAriel
Now the high maintenance part, maaaaaybe I can see a little where they'd get that as a first-time impression.
(Just joking. ^-^ )
