I make clothes! Dresses, formal shirts, all kinds of things ☺️

The best part is being able to alter/upcycle second hand clothes so I can buy cheaply and sustainably.

I kinda feel like the desire to "make things" and coding goes hand in hand 🤔

I dream of becoming a fashion designer to create my collections of designer clothes. I often face the problem of not being able to find the dress, suit, or shirt I want. That's why I often order clothes from online stores with many choices. I want to start developing in sewing and designing clothes.

Maybe I can open my own atelier and provide clothing design services to everyone in the future. I made my last clothing purchase at bellabarnett.com. There I ordered a mini dress for Friday night parties.

I'm not a fan of online games or video games. I meant real farming, that's where the food on our plate comes from.

That's amazing. People dancing well is so great to see. Too bad I can't do a single move.

Listening (and understanding): to your client, your colleagues, and even yourself.
Another skill I value in my colleagues it the ability to ask questions, especially those you might think they should know the answer to. It can takes a lot of courage in some environments.

I cook food. I try to be allergy friendly since I'm gluten sensitive. Mostly recipes focused on keeping the inflammation down. Originally started out by necessity, but now enjoy the brake I get when I set aside time to cook. I also save a lot since I don't really go to restaurants anymore.

Awesome... Burning Wheel had something special about it If i remember correctly? Sci Fi with a special game mechanic?

For me it was Lots of Star Wars (D6, D20), Shadowrun, GoT and D&D. With excursions to a lot of other systems like savage world, Mage, Gurps, Spycraft, Mutant Cronicles, Cuthulu (i can't spell that right ), blue plant.
