/fa/ - Fashion

I've only revently gotten interested in my appearence, but clothes have always been interesting to me. I've been lurking /fa/ for a while now, and learned a lot about what I personally like, while developing what I call my own style.

But I have a small problem. While I'm not fat neither skinny, I am in between. I've been going to gym for 6 months now, gaining some muscle and gained some weight too from eating too much. While I'd personally like to be skinny, I am only 18 and don't want to lose my potential weight growth, and while I've never trained my legs aside from jogging, they're relatively big compared to my upperbody. I'll probably try dropping weight when I'm older, to see if I can have small legs. At the moment, I haven't bought that many clothes as I'm too uncertain aboout my body.

I'm not really sure what to do. Probably just continue training till 20 ish and then lose weight and stop gym while remaining active.

I'm watching "Scatter My Ashes at Bergdorf's" on AppleTV (who uses Apple TV?) and looking for a pair of nude shoes. I have to wear nude shoes for sorority recruitment. I bought heels for round one, and now I "need" flats for round two (I can probably just wear heels again).

I've been feeling really down lately and I keep lashing out at the people I love because 1) I still can't deal with the fear of my mortality and 2) everyone around me seems to get everything they want while I have to work really hard to even be entry level also 3) exam results on thursday which I'll fail oh god oh god oh god

>>6686017
lol yeah results day. lel

rip

Small gripe: I'm slipping into my own little limbo again - which is getting comfortable with a situation and go back into old habits. I started a new job and moved about a month ago and things have been great - living a new working lifestyle that involves sleeping more and working out, eating better, and all of that. But now that work has plateaued and I'm acquainted there, my roommate is back in, and things are swell, I just want to go back into bad habits. I want to start drinking again each night (because I've had no problems lately with it) and I lost my motivation to go to the gym. Kind of at a crossroads, not pleased with it at all.

I've been having nightmares , panic attacks and sleep paralysis every day this past couple weeks. They all have the same theme , the theme being me suffocating or not being able to breathe. I'm now scared to sleep in my room. Is this /fa/? Someone help. Please.

I just started my new workout regiment and nutrition guide yesterday. When will this become 2nd nature to me?

>I'm skinnyfattish, and I'm trying to go athletic mode.

trying to decide if i have the confidence to pull of some of the shit ive bought this summer

>>6686014
I bought my parents an apple tv (dad jailbroke it), they are really nice but I use a xbox for all things really.

>>6686014
my gf is doing Rush workshops right now and they have to wear "bone" heels

>she is a phi mu, what are you?

>>6686031
Allow yourself some time. Find someone to go to the gym with. Drink only on weekends.

>>6686039
it will take a while, but try weaning yourself away and don't give yourself such a hard time. Give yourself a bit of a break every three days, then once a week, then twice a month, then once a month. It'll become second nature the more you do it.

>>6686052
Ours isn't jailbroken, so everything is expensive. It's my mother's iTunes account anyway though

>>6686056
My sorority has the same flower as Phi Mu. I go to school in Canada though so our recruitment doesn't start until September

>>6686052
why not just build an HTPC with a real sound system?

krell amp and AudioConcepts speakers?

>>6685994
>being able to shower in 2 minutes
seriously dude that is grimey as fuck

>>6686085
Nah dude it shouldn't take much longer than that unless you are flicking around.

>>6686039
You're in the same boat as me brosef, except I'm Auschwitz trying to get back into Otter/near Athletic (in time).

Your first week is going to be awesome because you have all the motivation in the world, but once you get over the hump of being sore and you start to feel more tired, your motivation is going to drop. I'm there right now and I despise it.

Two things that help:
1.) Make your meals ahead of time and just heat them up when you eat them. This stops you from cheating your diet because you "forgot" or were too lazy to cook and it keeps you on track because you know exactly what you're eating, etc.

2.) Get yourself pumped up for the gym. Tell yourself you're going to set some new PR, you're going to up your reps today, or you're just going to blow off some steam. Make a playlist, listen to it and just zone out. Pre-workout drink helps with this, it gives me kind of a tunnel vision and I fucking love that feeling.

>>6685970
cut / bulk. go myfitnesspal.com to work out your diet compared to goals, and read sticky on >>>/fit/

>>6686095
nah bro

>>6686079
I'm a Phi MU, your flower is a quatrafoil?

I'm fine, but I need some some words... not to cheer me up, but to make me focus more into what's important and the big deal.
This late month I've been going out with this girl. She's gorgeous, intelligent, attractive, passionate in bed... She's also like, one of the most desired girls in the city -She does famous shit, and is inside the whole literature scene in the city-. But that, if I'm honest, doesn't mean shit to me. I'm dating her because I like how she is, not because "what she is"


When we're together, everything is perfect, of course. But I live on a little town, and she's from the city. The city isn't that far, but I'm not there all days. And even If I try to be with her a lot of days -because I'm also dragged there because of business- It's hard to find her. I'm starting to feel like I'm just a little caprice for her. A sentimental dump. -We don't have anything serious. It's the whole "We meet in a very short time, and I like you, so let's stick together".


At the same time, things are going wonderful. I'm going out a lot and working a lot. Two months ago a wonderful photogragher opened an exposition in the city, a photographic exposition in wich I'm the main star. I'm also working on the shooting of a movie by a very talented director -who's one of my good friends- and I'll have a big role. My first movie role! And at the same time, I'm shooting another audiovisual project -by other of my friends- wich will be a music video for a well known group from the city....


Things are looking good for me. I'm confident with myself -not only because of the situation-, I'm happy, and I'm starting to meet a lot of people, between them a lot of girls, and despite that I'm always thinking about this girl I'm ""dating"""

So, /fa/, should I just stop caring about this girl, and take chances with other girls instead of giving all my loyalty to someone who seems to don't see it as worth?

>>6686100
I appreciate the advice, also when I say I'm skinnyfattish I'm very much not fat I'm just not cut like I used to be.

Good luck with your shit man, keep it up.

awful. got a really bad hangover. just been sitting at work all day doing no work popping caffeine pills and taking breaks to go and sit on the toilet with my head in my hands. i just want the day to end. i feel like crying.

I want to dress less plebby and I do have some "stylish" items, but I don't have the courage and motivation for it, nor the money to buy more. Plus I can't ever post in a WAYWT or something because everyone only comments on how I am a girl.
I lack motivation overall; I have and want to do a lot this holiday but I just can't bring myself to do it. It all seems like giant tasks I'll never accomplish anyway.
Feeling pretty down.

Just listening to Yung Lean, feeling pretty #emotional, naw seriously, i'm bummed out because i've been unemployed for the past 4 months and i had to move back in with my parets.

>>6686121
If you are sleeping with the girl already and she is acting like this, it probably means she wants more of a commitment from you (or she is just an insanely huge bitch).

Tell her you want to become exclusive and see how that goes.

>>6686130
But wouldn't you like the attention of being one of a very few crop of females who posts here?

bai is and will always be an insecure fuckboy

>>6686142
All I get is "x/10", "pls be in london", "ur so pretty bb". Plus I only have pleb-tier clothes so no point in posting anyway.

>>6686118
Whoops. Misread. No ours is a pink carnation, but if we had a Lilly print it would look kind of like yours

>>6686136
Anon, I think it's the opposite. She's the one fucking other dudes and hanging from me atleast once per week to watch movies and have dinners and make love.

I mean, there might be a lot of doubts in this whole -maybe she's no longer banging other guys "Just for sex. But with you anon, with you is different. You give me something special- but If I know something right, is that I'm giving a little more on this relationship than her.
You know, we started as I said, with one of those "hey Anon, I like you very much, and I want to see where this is going... but I also bang other guys because of sex and only sex, and because you're not always around... and you can do it with other girls, too!"
And hell If I don't do it. Not like a competition, just when I want. But I still can't help but feel I'm giving my loyalty to her and I'm going towards to give her my exclusivity


It would be hard to understand that she demanded a little more commitment from me, don't you think?

>>6686163
>Plus I only have pleb-tier clothes
buy new ones

also stop posting pics of urself

>>6686163
>girl
who do you think you are fooling with that masculine jaw?

>>6686126
Been there. Caffeine pills are just going to dehydrate you more and make you feel shittier. If you get a break for lunch, go out and get a Gatorade and something you think you could muster stomaching. You probably won't feel any better until the end of the day, but the electrolytes will help.

>>6686163
this is a dude wtf

>>6686163
You have Scarlett Johansson's lips. I find that very sexy.

>>6686189

Damn. u dont get stuff like this in UK (as far as I know) so I had to sneak it in my luggage back from italy and it's got a big flammable warning logo on the front lel

>>6686221
Nope.
>>6686224
Another thing: I can't. I've been trying to get a job but I never had one, so I'm always rejected. It's like a vicious cycle.

>>6686204
remember when you posted your vagina? it only took like one request and you did it immediately lol

on the real tho, becoming /fa/ takes a minute for us poors, just save up for a few nice pieces, and in the meantime try to learn about silhouettes and how colors work together to utilize your plebby clothes as effectively as possible while you build your wardrobe

>>6686204
u def have a dick

id fuck your boypussy tho

recovering from a shrooms trip.. (got the shits bad)

decided i'm gonna get my own place asap and ask my girlfriend to move in with me

>>6686204
can you not attention whore again
no one wants to see you shit up the board

I did something bad OP.

I don't know if fashion is even credible any more after this.

You see I told a good friend about these salty bags, and he asked effay if the bags looked nice.. I knew the bags looked ugly but I told him it was nice any way, now he's not talking to me and every one is laughing at him.

If I could convise some one to pay $100 for a shat bag that's filled with dirty salt water, can't companys do the same ting to us? Don't they do the same thing to us?

>>6686231
yeah man, you can make a semi-effective molotov out of that shit

won't work as well as if you jelly gasoline ofc

>>6686255
what the fuck are you talking about

>>6686242
Anon
Shhh pls

Heh thanks for the advice!
>>6686248
O-okay anonsama.

>>6685650
>>6686282

It's a stupid thread, some dude got trolled.

I may get laid tonight
A one day summer fling at apex
A fuck and flight

But there remains a void in my heart
I was romeo and juliet was her part
The last one to leave their mark like a bite from the dark

Ill leave the jeans on
And when she asks why
Ill tell her short and sweet and kiss goodbye

Sex to me is only love
Contradiction to the rest
I yern to give it all and recieve nothing less

>>6686196
sportpoor? havent seen you post in months

where the FUCK have you been

how am i?

im in a horrible spiral of depression and im not sure how its going to end.

i know ill probably receive "DO IT FAGET" but ive had many suicidal thoughts lately. it seems like everything in my life is coming to a head. changes are coming fast and i know ill have to deal with them, but the thing is i dont want to deal with them because i dont want any of them to happen, but i know i cant stop it. its at the point where just leaving it all seems to just be the best way for me.

>>6686336

Doing fuck all man dont even have an excuse tbh

Will start posting fits again soon tho :)

>>6686346
But take what you're saying to yourself with a big grain of salt. You're aware that your life is going to be full of impending changes and while it seems you might not have the power to change that, you do have the power to overcome them and triumph your own demons. Like a phoenix out of ash, you're always going to bounce back from the shit that weighs you down, especially when the load is heavier some times than others.

I'm certainly not going to bore you with some "don't do it, Anon" speech, because I won't be stepping on your own free will like that, but hard times are the tests that life throws at you. Offing yourself is the easy way out - why would you do that when you have nothing to leave behind?

Food for thought.

>>6686354
good

>>6686381
im 30 years old, ive left plenty behind. my name will live on. my actual name, i dont have kids or anything like that.

ive overcome plenty in my life, i look at other people and it just doesnt seem fair. its like they get all the breaks, whereas i feel like ive only just scraped by through sheer luck most of the time. i dont think i have any luck left.

>>6685902
These threads will be the slow death of me.

How am I? Numb. As per usual. I awake and listen to music which better articulates how I feel. I can't pin down how I exactly feel because I'm far too fucking dissociated to ever center myself, and I have nobody who understands how that feels.
What's on my mind is a swirling maelstrom of thoughts yet I'm rooted at the eye of the storm so I feel nothing at all.
I don't know anymore.

>>6686530
>I'm far too fucking dissociated to ever center myself
derealization?

>>6686530
Sounds like you are either A teenager or going through an edgy midlife crisis

>>6686538
Yes. A mixture of both is definitely present.

>>6686582
>tfw
clothes and people look weird a lot

>>6685902
How am i? the girl of my dreams left for norway and yesterday some girl who looks just like her is posting on /soc/ it hurt

>>6686594
I can't comprehend how other people exist. It's impossible for me. I think I've spent too much time alone.

>>6686617
same

i think people on 4chan arent real/dont exist

i know they arent fake but still they seem alien

i tried to go swimming yesterday but it was too bright outside

i need to commit suicide as soon as possible

>>6686625
I know they're real. I know they're existing entities but I can't comprehend all of the illogical concepts they employ, and I seriously hope 95% of the posts on 4chan are made in jest and non-seriousness.

I've been putting off running an important errand for a few days but I don't think it's a big rush anyway. Maybe I'll do it tomorrow.

>i need to commit suicide as soon as possible
Heh. One day, yeah?

>>6686163

ur so bretty pp
plox be in england

>>6686433
wait until
a year from now
where you say,
"Holy fuck,
I can’t believe I was going to kill myself before I etcetera’d…
before I went skinny dipping in Tennessee,
made my own IPA,
tried out for a game show,
rode a camel drunk,
skydived alone,
learned to waltz with clumsy old people,
photographed electric jellyfish,
built a sailboat from trash,
taught someone how to read,
etc. etc. etc.”

The red washing
down the bathtub
can’t change the color of the sea
at all.

Don't do it man. You've felt like this before and overcome it, you can do it again. The struggle makes your life much more enjoyable than people who are just always happy.

There are some truly beautiful moments ahead of you.

Good. Went thrifting with ~friends~. No luck though, no good cops though.

How are you anon?

>>6686690
im alright thanks

>>6686153
its pretty hard to write one of those and not osund like a loser

>>6686354
yay :)))

>>6686043
just fucking do it nukka, if you have to decide then you dont have the confidence. just go balls out fuck it

I should be studying. But I don't. because of you.

also I just realized how nxtlvl I look in my $10 studying outfit (navy sweatpants + charcoal tee)

just woke up from a really long dream. i recently lost my grandpa to a freak accident (he fell off a bridge and broke his neck and bled out for an hour before anyone found him). in my dream, everyone kept trying to talk to me about my gramps, and just asking me what happened and being nosy and whatnot. i'm bawling my eyes out typing this.

i just really miss you gramps.

>>6687079
at least he died doing something awesome.

probably a hundred times better than slowly fading out of life in a hospital bed, breathing through a tube.

I have an essay to do for college that I have procrastinated big time and there are textbooks I need to read in order to write this thing. I am just over halfway through my summer holidays and need to hop on it quick but have little to no motivation. I just don't like college at all and even though I picked my subjects I do not enjoy the majority of them, I do not enjoy the environment. I feel stifled a good deal of the time in class or bored outside of it. Results day coming up and I am not really looking forward to it. I have spent the entire summer alone. I discovered that I don't really miss human contact so much, but I also wish that my "friends" were people I connect more with and share more interests with.

Fucking results day mang.

Get to find out if im gonna get into the uni i want.

Pretty certain imma have to use clearing.

Just stressing the fuck out atm.

fucking potato nigger

why are girls so confusing? does she even have interest? lol

>>6687362
Shes using you for attention bro, you are being strung.

Drop off contact and forget about her, if she really cares she will try and meet up. But be wary that may just be for attention only.

>>6687362
If she wanted to hang out with you, she would put in the effort required.

>>6687415
still can't get over the fact that she mostly hangs out with 1/10, 4-eyed nerds. i'm not trying to condescend, but it's true. although she does have qt3.14 friends

>>6687425
>your friends must be as attractive as you

>>6687437
it's not that. she's has both qt3.14 friends and meh friends toplel.

I'm actually pretty good. Everything is going exactly how I want it to right now.

I think I have hiv but I never had unprotected sex besides oral stuff :(

>>6687451

boxer here, could you please try less hard


Oh, and maybe work on your head movement and catching

>>6687523

thanks for the generic advice and for letting us know that you box too

>>6687503
why do you think you have HIV, then?
even with unprotected vaginal sex, the chance of transmission is around 1%.

21st birthday is today. It's been alright thus far, but really nothing special. This week is finals week, so I'm really not going to do anything to crazy.

I've gotten a lot of nice messages from friends and family, but nothing yet from the girl I'm fucking, which is bumming me out.

>>6687564
happy birthday, get off /fa/ you fucking faggot

ps that girl youre fucking, is fucking another dude today instead of you

This probably isn't the right board for this but you asked me what's on my mind.

>Feel like complete shit
>emotionally drained
>pshycially tired
>depressed, as per usual
>just
>complete
>shit

I don't usually post my feelings but right now I have no one to talk to what so ever. I don't even like the b'aaw threads over on /b/.

Reason why this is because I copped a pair of dunks. I've completly hit rickbottom

>>6687588
you should have bought something better

im slowly but surely becoming less and less interested in other people and less and less of a happy-go-lucky person and it scares me

therapy hasnt helped i just feel like i know their 'games'

>>6687707
i know this feel. try being more active towards other people. what i mean is: become the 'dominant' one in your friend group and relationships. i feel like this keeps people interesting because you're always seeing what you can make them do.

>yes this is manipulative

>>6687596
Nigga, u are the most retarded to go by a name here

tfw no gf

feeling like shit and down as always, havent talked with nobody all day , but i left the house to work and college.
Paranoia got me thinking every person that look at me in the streets or even at work/college fuckin hates me/thinks i'm ugly/doesnt like me.
just wish to stay inside all day and forget about apparence, physical/social interaction(staying noided all day is fuckin hard).
sorry for making this my own blog, but i was feeling like i needed to get this shit out.
pic is what i'm listening to, fits perfectly to my mood rightnow

>>6687778

I believe that will work... I've felt that way twice, after taking adderall, which also scares me because it makes me think drugs are the only way i'll be interesting enough to do that.

the concept of leading just seems so exhausting, but i really really wish i could do it

I've become socially retarded from prioritizing computer ahead of social situations since 5th grades, i'm first now beginning to realize the consequences. My parents found my stash of drugs, so my one and only source of income whilst studying has been cut off. No money for clothes, second-class genetics, vacation's almost over, realize i havent done anything that means shit all summer. Can't say i have any actual friends, as i've noticed that no-one keeps in touch once im out of drugs.

just got back from a long trip out west.

made me feel very infantile.

i'm a bit bored and depressed since i've haven't been doing much and staying up all night and wasting the day sleeping

but i'm meeting a few friends tomorrow so it's all cool

Burnt the fuck out. Mom recently got diagnosed with cancer, so that threw a big fucking wrench in my plans.

But on the plus side, I'm slowly reaching ottermode, I've got a shitload of new friends, and the qt3.14 I like seems to be pretty into me, so yeah.

Life sucks, and then it doesn't.

feeling pretty mixed currently
>become way more /fa/, noticing attention
>one of my best friends is changing courses next semester as she can't handle the pressure, probably won't see her around ever as we are only friends due to our similar classes, our other friends don't really know one another
>saving is going well, feel like i'll be able to buy some stuff i really like/want soon
>found out my friends on/off gf thing has just been leading him on and apparently he told her she is the only thing he lives for
>have gf but kinda want to break up with her
>she will take it super badly

>still feeling /fa/
