What to do?

What do y’all do for fun? I’m in my early 20s and I’ve been living here for just over a year now. I didn’t have a car until recently so I didn’t get out much. I’m trying to do so now so what do young people do for fun here?

Looking for female kitten under 4 months old so my other kitten can have a playmate.

I recently adopted a 3 month old kitten and I'm hoping to get her another female friend to help socialize her and keep her company when im not home. She's a little gremlin who loves to bite and claw so im hoping a more cuddly cat might rub off on her.

Westover Gardens area?

I am looking to move to High Point, NC from Upstate SC. I came across a house listing in Westover Gardens. Is that in a safe area? Any other info about safe neighborhoods to consider is appreciated. I work remotely and am looking to retire within a year or so. I like quiet, well-kept properties with friendly people. Don’t care about nightlife scene. Healthy environment - clean air, water, proximity to good health care are more important to me. Thanks in advance.

Realtor / Real Estate Agent Recs

Hey folks -

I'm in the process of relocating from VA to NC and like what I have seen about the High Point area. Do you all have any recommendations for local buyers agents/realtors/real estate agents? Are there any in particular that should be avoided? I'll be a first time homebuyer and would feel comfortable with someone who can help me navigate the process with ease - especially since I'm coming from out of state.

Appreciate it!

Alternative to buying new trash can?

Hi. We recently moved to the area and I have an oddly specific question. The last tenant left one of the trash cans in bad condition (missing lid, other damage). The city said they can't repair it because it's out of warranty and I would have to pay $70 for a new one. The property management company also likely can't do anything about it because all utilities are in the tenants name.

Would I have any other option besides buying a new one, maybe I could obtain the lid from somewhere else? I'm hesitant to buy a new one because we may only be here for a year (one year lease). Thanks.

[UPDATE] Restarting Mandarin and Spanish classes for the first time since the pandemic, if anyone wants to learn (remotely).

Hey y’all,

I wanted to provide an update for a couple of reasons please find them after the original post for context.

Original Post:
I had a brick-and-mortar business (teaching languages) in another country before the pandemic that I started not long before the pandemic. Covid killed it. I ended up doing other things for a bit and have decided to go back to teaching.

I’ve been developing my own materials based on my experience learning languages — I’m a polyglot. I speak at least English, Spanish, Mandarin, and Cantonese every day. I’ve lived in relevant countries for at least 5 years each and I have a Linguistics master’s from an Ivy League.

If you’re interested, send me a DM. I’m doing classes primarily remotely, but I wouldn’t mind arranging to meet up in person at some point. My classes are aimed at getting you speaking quickly about things that you’re interested in, so I take a more direct approach to the language than most traditional text books — you won’t be learning to say outdated phrases as most textbooks and courses teach (e.g 馬馬虎虎、請問您貴姓 <~~ no one uses these, yet they’re often learned in the first lesson or two). Take advantage of having someone who’s actually learned multiple languages to fluency. Send me a message so that we can get you speaking Spanish or Mandarin soon.

 

Reasons for the Update:

1)    I was on mobile strictly, as I have been finishing up a crash course that culminated in an in-country trip/experience in the Dominican Republic, so I was literally showing students around the country whilst trying to manage responses on reddit. The success of the crash course is actually the reason that I began to consider going back to teaching classes albeit remotely this time and it was, ultimately, what led me to create that first post that I made on the three Triad subreddits. That interesting anecdote aside, I must confess that I simply was not prepared for the veritable deluge of responses that I received from y’all across the Triad and so I would first like to sincerely thank everyone for their responses and for taking the time to reach out and to show their support. It’s given me quite a bit of hope and I must say that the response has really inspired me to dream about and envision ways to provide even more value down the line as I grow this into an actual business.

2)    Whether you saw the first post or you didn’t and now you’re interested in classes, I have learned that reddit is not optimized to be the best platform when it comes to facilitating communication as a lot of people don’t check DMs/messages, threads, chats, & comment replies on a regular basis. That being the case, whether you’ve reached out previously or are about to do so now, please include WhatsApp contact information if you have it or at least an email that you use as reddit is just proving not to be the ideal platform.

Finally, once again, thank y’all so much!
