On the flip side, I haven't met very many interesting Irish men either.

It goes both ways, I suppose. I'm not a clubbing type of person either, so I think it's harder for people like you and me to cross paths since we don't go along the usual majority social routes.

Ah, not too bad at all! I'm about as far north as you can get in Italy, so it's not unbearable yet, but I have a feeling I'll be dying once it gets to May. Yesterday was about as hot as it would get in Ireland and people were still wearing fucking coats and leather jackets because Italians don't dress for the weather, they dress for the season. It could be 30 degrees in winter and they'd still be wearing heavy coats because it's WINTER and that's what you DO. I like that people make an effort to dress nice here, though.

Heh, sorry if I came across as unnecessarily negative.

On the Irish men front, I'm probably drawing most strongly from my negative experiences with various classmates, which is probably unfair. I'm not terribly into that sort of night clubbing/pub culture, and while it's cool that they do that, sometimes I can feel a disconnect with them as a result. I should clarify that while I probably don't find them interesting, it's less because I feel that their lives are empty (far from that!) and more because we don't connect. And that's cool, because not everyone in the world can.

All in all, I'm not a very sociable person - I prefer to keep my friends few and close. I've actually considered the activities that you talked about -but I'm honestly less of a humanities person and more of a science person - my interests lie either really close to my major or are completely solitary. Despite that, I have really close friends in class I can study with, talk with, and connect with without fear of getting gossipped about maliciously (also a problem in my class), and that makes me happy.

I should also note I'm probably not that interesting myself. School and a lack of time organization has pretty left no time for a lot of hobbies that I used to do (e.g. reading - I'm actually really cool with anything from YA lit to whatever, as long as the story's good). It's something that I have to work on.

Ah, more or less the same actually. Like a slightly colder and more depressing Ireland where everyone speaks gibberish. It's lovely in the summer though, too bad it only lasts for a fairly short while. All my international friends have stopped going abroad for the holidays and decided to start renting summer cottages for a few wees instead. The lakes are gorgeous as well, I've a friend who took me to hers up in the north and it was divine except for all the horseflies and mosquitoes.

>How does everyone deal with the sweat so?
No idea, I assume Italians are ethereal beings of elegance who never sweat ever. And also the heat probably isn't as brutal for them since they're used to it.

Do you speak much Finnish, actually? I imagine you probably don't really need to, being that almost everyone there seems to speak English, but I find it really frustrating in Italy when I'm speaking to people in Italian and they hear my foreign accent or possibly mistake my natural awkwardness with lack of confidence in the language and they switch to English, it must happen even more often in Finland.

>Is her name Saoirse by any chance?
Nope, she's not called Saoirse, but she actually is from Cork, she goes to the art school there. She seems to really like Lahti, at least! I guess I never really think of Finland as a place that really has much crime at all.

That's cool, though, Finland seems like it'd be a really good place to try out mori. I'm fairly sure you'd die of heatstroke attempting it in Italy outside of late autumn and winter.

I'm in a similar boat, people here seem to never need any makeup and everyone looks so pretty all the time, even the boys. I've gone from a 5/10 to a 3 (on a good day) by just moving here... Ah at least I can tell myself I'm unique haha

>Do you speak much Finnish, actually?
As a matter of fact I do! I've been here for around 2 years now, and I've lost the accent completely. Many people are shocked when they find out I'm not a native, even though I have rusty hair and brown eyes and look nothing like a Finn at all...
My Finnish is not perfect, by all means, and I certainly can't call myself fluent just yet but so far so good! Though I seem to speak English differently as well, from what my parents tell me, but being surrounded by ESLs for so long tends to do that to a person.
>Finland seems like it'd be a really good place to try out mori

I came over for the education, and maybe to get to see a different view on things (surprisingly, yes, I did, and there is a lot I think the states could learn as well particularly in my field). And I got a great education - the teachers, especially in my later years, were amazing, and really spurred my interest in the subject. I learned a lot that I'll take back to the States with me, both in my subject and out of it.

And lmfao, haha no I wasn't set on finding pretty Irish boys.

That's brilliant, I spend so much of my time talking to other Erasmus students here that it can be tough to practice Italian at times. Completely my own fault, it's just that the Erasmus students are quite aggressively social so for someone like me who doesn't naturally approach people, it's much easier to make friends with them than the Italians who are understandably quite happy with their own friend group. I've been speaking Italian more often lately, though, so I'm feeling optimistic. And I definitely feel you on speaking English differently, I think my English is starting to sound semi-broken from mostly only hanging around with ESL folk. Even when I'm speaking to native English-speakers here like Americans and Brits, it really hits you how different Irish English is to other types of English.

I've noticed the same! I think I've become quite the social butterfly myself, everyone here's so friendly and kind you just can't help it. For some reason most of my friends in my polytech are Russians, they're all such wonderful people.
I know a lad from Vladivostok, and even one from Kazakhstan!
>I think my English is starting to sound semi-broken from mostly only hanging around with ESL folk.
Same! Though I've now moved in with my Finnish bf. I sometimes catch myself saying 'what's the clock' or 'that was so nice lunch' because of him, haha.
>it really hits you how different Irish English is to other types of English.
I remember coming here for the first time and asking people 'what's the craic?' Then it hit me that most of them probably thought I was asking them for actual crack or something. It's a relief to not have to speak really basic English to everyone sometimes.

Yeah, it's really cool to meet people from so many different countries. Probably the only nationality I haven't met here is Russian, oddly. I've met a few Iranians and Syrians and there's a ton of Polish, Czech, and German people here.

And yeah, I'm usually really self-conscious of my Irishisms while I'm here, but I've accidentally said some really Irish things to my American friend here, it's pretty embarrassing. Like saying "Jesus Mary and Joseph etc etc", which apparently isn't a done thing in other places. Or "Some woman for one woman". I'm looking forward to being able to speak English the way I'm used to again, the way I'm speaking it right now is almost as much effort as speaking an entirely foreign language.

I hear you! It takes so much effort to pick your words and tone down your accent. This one Irish bloke that teaches marketing sounds completely American because he's lived here for so long, he had to train himself to speak plainly and neutrally so much that it eventually became second nature.

By the way, how do you fare finding products you were used to back home? How's the selection of cosmetics, foods and such? It's extremely difficult here, had to wean myself off of many things and learn to utilise different ones. Especially moisturiser, it gets as low as -30 here at times. My first year here, bf took me out for a walk at -25 and my eyelashes and nostrils froze over, it hurt to breathe!

>> No.8252688

>>8252645
Apparently not, I was really surprised to hear it. I can't help saying it, though, it just slips out sometimes.

>This one Irish bloke that teaches marketing sounds completely American

A few people here have said I sound a little bit American, it's quite crushing to hear (no offense to any Americans) but it really is true. It's not even just toning down the accent itself, but also the intonations and where you put the emphasis in a word or sentence.

>how do you fare finding products you were used to back home?

I, eh, don't. There's a Sephora here and the selection's good so I'm not completely stuck for cosmetics, but the big brands are much more expensive here than they are in Ireland. And the foundation shades are a no-go, I just had to buy some more in Ireland when I was home for Christmas, they kept showing me the lightest shades they had which were still several shades too dark and insisting I'd be fine. I'm crazy pale, though, I even have trouble finding foundation in Ireland a lot of the time. There's a shop called Kiko as well that sells cheap makeup and is very popular, but I find it very hit-or-miss.
False eyelashes are a bugger, too, nobody seems to use them here. I haven't even found any in Sephora. I don't especially need them, but they're nice for going out in lolita.
Shampoo is kinda tough, too, the sulfate-free thing hasn't really reached Italy yet and my hair doesn't do particularly well with sulfatey shampoo.
Skincare isn't the worst, they have the major brands like Garnier, Neutrogena, Nivea, etc, but I have a hard time with moisturisers as well. They're all either heavy and greasy or way too light.
Finding non-Italian food other than kebabs is really hard, I'm not in a big city and most Italians seem to have an attitude of "Well, our food is the best anyway, why eat foreign stuff?". They kind of have a point, but a bit of variety would be nice.

>> No.8252709

>>8252688
Hmm, odd. I'm quite pale myself (but I can tan from NC15 to... NC20 like, so not much but that means freckles and anything after is burn city) but I haven't had issues with makeup here. Actually, I was surprised to find out that many Scandinavians have quite deep tans in the summer! My bf would look Greek himself if it weren't for the light hair and eyes.
>big brands are much more expensive here than they are in Ireland.
Same problem, shipping's an arm and a leg as well.
>nobody seems to use them here
People here don't seem to wear much makeup, so I've stopped wearing it myself. Which is so much easier but I have sparse, light eyebrows and eyelashes and look like a rat without eyeliner
>tfw everyone goes bare-faced and is still prettier than me with a face full o' slap
>Finding non-Italian food other than kebabs is really hard
Hmm, I actually have trouble finding anything BUT foreign food. There's so many posh restaurants in Helsinki and you can get any kind of takeaway you wish.
>A few people here have said I sound a little bit American, it's quite crushing to hear
Ah same... I find it a wee bit sad, because well, I don't WANT to be American, but we don't really have any bigger defining trait other than Guinness and the accent and most people I've talked to don't even know where Dublin is... And when I tell people where I'm from they just go 'Oh! Ireland! *drinking motion with hand*' Finns can relate to that quite well though, since most people probably couldn't find Helsinki on a map either prior to coming here. Which is quite sad.

>> No.8252748

>>8252709
Yeah, it is weird. They just don't tend to carry the lightest shades of any given foundation brand. Or the darkest ones, either, despite the fact that there are plenty of black people. It's quite a narrow range. I suppose in Milan or somewhere I'd have more luck, though. I am very noticeably paler than most everyone here, I sort of stick out right off the bat. I do tan, but very, very slowly. My skin seems to have built up some sort of resistance to it. I don't think I've ever gotten a sunburn in my life.

And yeah, most people wear very little makeup here. I used to never leave the house without it myself, but over the months I've sort of stopped caring and now I think it's probably been a week since I wore makeup of any kind because I haven't been doing anything special. The longer you go without it, the more you start to realise you don't actually look that hideous without it, I think. Or maybe you just get used to your hideousness.

>I actually have trouble finding anything BUT foreign food
I reckon that's probably because Finnish food doesn't quite have the reputation or sheer variety that Italian food does. I mean, I dunno if you heard about Berlusconi's remarks on Finnish cuisine, but he was pretty harsh. An Italian friend of mine rather defensively pointed out that the reason places like Ireland, the UK, and Scandinavia have such a wide variety of foreign restaurants is because our own food is so shitty we can't bear to eat it, kek. And there are some old Italian people who would be wary of eating food from outside their own region, let alone their country.

None of the /int/ users could've been that specific with all of those initials (a lot of whom are all friends with eachother) or their age brackets. Their shitposting doesn't really go beyond namedropping Amy or Potsy. Either it actually is Amy or it's just a seagull stirring shit.

That, & this board is about cosplaying. The shifts & standards of the craft. If people take criticism, however phrased, as an excuse to whine & bitch up a fuss & aren't ignored, then its safe to assume that faggotry & being the most shrill, vile piece of shit wins out here.

Ah yeah, I get where you're coming from but if >>8265870 wanted more info on him, it's not necessarily breaching her confidence just talking about him as a person in general without going into specifics about what went on in a relationship.

True, I suppose. But I'm still going on record as saying my opinion of him is that I have no opinion.

No, I don't think she's been involved for the last year or two. Eirtakon have someone else doing it now, dunno who she is though cause it seems to only be a nickname listed on the committee page on their site.

Amy's supposed to be Lolita? What, from the one DanganRonpa cosplay? Lolita's supposed to cause a mild stun effect with the overall cuteness of the image presented, from what I've experienced. She does not produce this effect.

Bad choice of words on that anon's part. I don't think anyone's claimed she's lolita.

Fuck me, the current comm was created well after the death of Bebo as a popular form of social media. I guess there was some sort of proto-comm before. Weird.

Surprisingly succinct post coming from you.

I saw Amy King at the Mc Donalds in Donaghmede yesterday. I told her how cool it was to meet her in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother her and ask her for photos or anything.

She said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”

I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but she kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing her hand shut in front of my face. It was sugoi. I walked away and continued to drink my shamrock shake, and I heard her chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw her trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen double cheeseburgers in her hands without paying.

The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Miss, you need to pay for those first.” At first she kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.

When she took one of the burgers and started scanning it multiple times, she stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “to prevent any electrical infetterence,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s a word. After she scanned each burger and put them in a bag and started to say the price, she kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.
