20% off on student meals @ CU from TThS

hello, this is 405. my weather app says it's 2 degrees Celsius right now and since it's my turn to post on the bulletin, i'd like to share a helpful tip that i learned. if you don't have budget for buying new heat pads, you can make your own using your old sweaters. just cut off the sleeves and stitch / glue the end (honestly, use whatever's available; i find fabric glue the best-- if you know anyone from fashion school, you could ask them to lend you some.) fill it with beans or rice (uncooked of course), then secure the other end. make sure it's not going to spill; it would be a hassle to find rice and beans in your bag. it's up to you if you want to make it pretty on the outside. to heat it, you can pop them in the microwave for a minute or two. check every 30 seconds so it wont overheat. if you're in school, you can use the cafeteria microwave to reheat it and bring it to the library if you want to study. when you're on the go, you can drop by any convenience store and ask to use their microwave. let's stay warm, everyone. ah, did i say my name is 405? it's bae joohyun. i'm studying developmental education and recently, i'm into upcycling. i have an SNS too. you can find me at @fourclovered [hello! mun is on asian timezone ;; app is here / for plotting, you can shoot me a PM / DM!

hello. which floor are you from?

are you not good with the cold weather? i can make you a sleeve, you just need to fill it with rice.

i dont know why i posted it anonymously... sorry, my brain is not working yet ._.

i'm on the 2nd floor!

i'm not good at the cold, no... ㅠㅠ
that would be very sweet of you! i could come collect it with a return gift!

[luckyu]

ah, second floor neighbor.

hang in there. in a few months we'll have spring again. i'm not good with cold either. it feels restrictive. no need for a return gift. but if you would insist, i'd appreciate your old magazines.

[nevarietur]

old magazines...i don't think i have any. what about books?

[luckyu]

old books are better. if you don't need them, i'd be happy to give them a new home.

what's upcycling?? 🤔

[luckyu]

it's when you reuse a product but you upgrade its purpose. like when you turn your PET bottles into planters or pencil cases.

does unnie have any more upcycling tips? the heating pack trick is a great idea... now i can actually do something with my old sweaters instead of just donating them!

[luckyu]

ah, if you donate them, that's even better. i'm talking about sweaters you really can't salvage. upcycling tips... mm, since you're a student, it might be practical if you use old bottles as your desk organizers?
