Looking for participants for a South Asian Adult Children of Alcoholics for a Masters thesis research study.

I'm looking for individuals within Canada who are South Asian Adult Children of Alcoholics for my Masters thesis research study. Therefore, I'm hoping to post on this forum to gain participants. I've attached a brief description of my study.

"I am conducting a research study exploring the experiences of South Asian ACoAs (Adult Children of Alcoholics) and the meaning they associate with alcoholism. I am seeking to interview individuals raised in South Asian households with an alcoholic parent or one who misused alcohol, to better understand the cultural and mental health dynamics involved.

If you know anyone who may be interested in participating, I am looking for South Asian ACoAs who:

Identify as South Asian and were raised in a South Asian household.

Lived with a parent who struggled with alcoholism or alcohol misuse.

Are 19 years or older.

Are fluent in English for a 1-2 hour online interview.

Participation is voluntary, and participants can withdraw at any time. If interested, please contact me at Shobia.vaseeharan@mytwu.ca or 604 446 5229."

Thank you so much.

Hi everyone, moving to Mission soon and I was thinking of starting a side hustle doing gel-x nails.

Mission has some nail salons though, I even have my own fave spot to get acrylic nails done and I’m not sure if people would bother coming to me for such a service…what’s everyone’s opinion?

I don’t want to spend money, time, and effort on learning and setting up this side hustle for no one to want it!

Nothing fancy, as long as it is hardwood. Just needs to be one of the ones with a lip at the front and the back so it does slip back on the counter and is reversible, I think they might be called kneading boards or dough boards but I want to cut on it.

I know it’s like 2am but if anyone has a joint 🍀🚬 they’d be willing to handout? I’m happy to pay.

I'm not sure if anyone is gonna see this in time, but I'm going on a date tomorrow (it's our second date) and we want to think of a plan B place we can go to that's close to us because of the rain. Does anyone know where we could go to in mission? Thanks

This question is for anyone who comes home over the Mission Bridge and goes through the highway 7 and highway 11 intersection and is turning west towards Silverdale around 4-6pm on weekdays.

Obviously, you know that traffic will back up to the Junction Overpass to the foot of the Mission Bridge, and they are currently doing construction to hopefully fix the problem…but, did anyone notice how the problem was temporarily fixed for a few days in the last week or two? And, now we seem to be back to the same wait times?

I have a couple 8'x8' area rugs to be cleaned. I'm looking for a reputable company that will do a great job. Ideally with an office in Mission where I can drop off the rugs rather than them coming to us.

Seems like all the ones I find online all say they serve Mission, but their offices are in Langley or Vancouver or not actually in Mission.

I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thank you

Hey Mission folks, after the earthquake last night, I’m thinking we might just be in for a show in the sky too! 😅 Anyone know good spots around here to see the northern lights tonight (remote chance that it is because of cloud cover)?

Hey all I’m 25 looking for people who enjoy fishing and looking to make new friends. I live in mission just thought I would post and see what’s out there

Just moved into a place and lawn is pretty overgrown. Looking for someone who could do the first cut. My mower is older and it’ll probably kill it doing this first cut. Anyone have recommendations on a not too pricey mowing service that can take care of this first cut for me?

Hello guys!

Apologies if this has been posted before, but I want to know if the parking lot here (1425 Welton St) has free parking? I have anxiety parking in front of the stores 😅 I have parked here on numerous occasions and never gotten a ticket. Never really stayed long enough to check any parking limits, and a lot of people seem to park here also. Thank you!!

I’m looking for a new hairstylist in town as I am no longer happy with the one I have been using. Any recommendations for reasonably priced women’s cuts?

Hello Mission! As some of you may know, there are a few Clothing optional beaches located in the eastern fraser Valley, for those of you that don't know here I am telling you. We have at least 3 well known to sorta well known spots, 1 outside mission, 1 at cultas and 1 near Rosedale. I have created this sub for people to connect, enjoy the lifestyle or even just learn more about it. It has directions on how to get to the spots and I encourage you to check them out when you have time. The people who gather here are usually very friendly, kind and loving people who just want to appreciate the outdoors in the nude..

Recently moved to Doyle/Stave Lake Street area and my (normally quiet, not anxious or reactive) Shepherd x Husky pup's new favourite hobby is sitting with her head on the windowsill at night and growling quietly. A few times she's been indoors doing something and started barking furiously at random. It's always directed up in the bush behind us.

So... what's up there? We've seen a bear pass through one evening but the way she's acting you'd think it was outside the window most of the day. Other than that one sighting, we've never caught a glimpse of what's triggered her, with the exception of one evening thinking we saw a dark shadow pass by outside.

Could it be a bear every time? Something that's better at hiding in the bush and sneaking around? Some type of cryptid/alien? A creepy neighbour? 🤣

Do you find it annoying to have to drive down to the grocery store or the junction or a restaurant?

My family and I are taking a day trip from Coquitlam to Mission tomorrow to celebrate my 50th birthday! A little disc golf and Paradise Falls :)

Do any of you have recommendations of a nice place to have lunch? Thanks in advance.

Hi there. I got a parking ticket for violating bylaw 8.02(a) which is (parking in contravention to a traffic control device) basically a “reserved” sign on the bottom of the parking spot and have gotten ticketed for 50$. I didn’t know that it was a reserved parking lot and it’s my first offense ever. I’m a student and I was volunteering at a local friendship center in mission and parked there. Do you think I can dispute this?

Let me know if you have any questions!
