Where the Fuck is Denmark?
<p>A leap, a fractured ankle, and a whole new perspective. One university exchange to rule them all.</p><p>"When I was in my final year of University, I signed up for an exchange. I mostly applied to feel like I’d done something other than get drunk on homemade wine and call-in orders of family-sized poutine. Having never left the continent, I put my preferred destinations as either Ireland or England—clearly, placing little emphasis on cuisine (or dental). </p><p>Like most volunteer opportunities, I was in it for the boost of talking about doing something. I lacked the foresight to grasp that moving somewhere was a likely requirement. I also had yet to learn that time is not an almighty buffer.</p><p>A few weeks later, I got the email that I’d been accepted into the exchange program. I also received my placement country. Would it be boiled potatoes or crisps? Guinness or Newcastle? Red-haireds or other pale people? </p><p>As I opened the attachment, my hands turned clammy.</p><p>It looked like I’d be spending my winter semester in….*drum roll, please*…</p><p>Denmark!? </p><p>Where the fuck is Denmark?"</p><p><strong>To read in full, check out:</strong> https://www.backtoshameless.com/</p>

A Furniture Warehouse to Call My Own
<p>"It looked like shit, but I knew I had to stand by it."</p><p>When we moved into our first house, I threw out our frat boy futon. The time had come to invest in an “I’m a mortgaged adult” sofa. Skipping over Ikea’s middle ground, I set my sights on a down-filled velvet sectional with a price to match. </p><p>For weeks, I loitered on Article’s website with Royal Velvet propped in my shopping cart.</p><p>However, even after red wine and indulgent Real Housewive’s marathons, I’d get close but then panic and abandon. <a href="https://www.backtoshameless.com/p/stop-being-cheap">As a Dollarami-Mami (in recovery)</a>, without a promo code or flash sale, I just couldn’t bring myself to do it. </p><p>As luck would have it, after some deep web sleuthing, I found Lady Velvet on Facebook Marketplace. The couch was in good condition, nearby, and most importantly, less than half off.</p><p>And hey, a little stranger dander never hurt anybody.</p><p>To read in full, head to: https://www.backtoshameless.com/</p>

Don't Be Cheap
<p>Generosity comes in all shapes and sizes (but none are found in the discount bin).</p><p><br></p><p>As someone in recovery, I can sniff out a fellow cheap person from a mile away. I get a shiver when I watch a stranger perform their best “purse dig looking for a credit card” at bill time. </p><p>While I’ve learned to override being cheap, I still have my eye on the prize. A restaurant menu with a $2 cost-savings gap? I’ll find the combination. A utility turkey with a wing missing for Thanksgiving dinner? Who needs two? A discount bin at checkout filled with expired formula and stale nuts? Ima be sifting. </p><p><br></p><p>To read in full, head to: https://www.backtoshameless.com/</p>
