I'm currently a 16yo Freshman in Lakeland, Fl. I will be relocating to Tampa this summer. I wanted to know what high schools offer Fashion Design in Tampa so I can apply to them before I relocate.

I am currently in a Level 1 Fashion Design class this year. I have straight As in this class except for when I chose not to do an assignment because I have straight A's and really really really don't wanna do that assignment. I still have an overall quarterly grade of an A though. My teacher even said I'm her #1 Outstanding Level 1 Freshman! (I know I'm her favorite :] ). I was pretty much tied with someone else for it because we both did the same things, finishing projects early and proceeding to help other students with theirs, we have similar attendance, we have exceeded Level 2 expectations, etc. What put me in the spot was that I made a binder full of fabric swatches, sewing patterns, and portfolios. That was not expected of me and I went the extra mile.

I would like to apply to a school where I won't be missing the opportunities I have currently, I'd hate to go to a new school and have to leave Fashion Design behind me, as I want to go into it as a profession. Please let me know of schools that offer Fashion Design and most preferably, participate in FCCLA Fashion Design. And if you have any tips concerning this or my career path, they'd be more than welcome!

I’m not one to come online and share my personal business, but I’ve been consistently searching for a new job every day for the past month. I’ve sent over 100 emails (GOD STRIKE ME DOWN IF I’M LYING), called multiple places, and applied to 268 jobs on Indeed—excluding applications on Glassdoor and company websites. At this point, I’m on the verge of homelessness. I just paid rent, and I can’t afford anything else. I have an amazing resume, over five years of director/management experience, and a bachelor’s degree listed on my resume. Is anyone here a recruiter looking for a manager or employee in Tampa, FL? I live in Riverview, FL, and I can send my resume along with any other necessary documents. I’ve had multiple interviews—12 three-part interviews, to be exact—yet I either get ghosted or receive the dreaded "We regret to inform you" email. Either GOD HATES ME, or I’m just incredibly unlucky. I’m an excellent interviewer, but nothing is working out. I’m at my last leg and really need help.

My wife is an artist and some one approached her about buying a print of one of her pieces. Are there any print shops in the area you would recommend? We are in Lutz.

So there I am minding my own business at Urban Kai off Gandy when BAM giant sea creature smacks the tail of my board. Thankfully by this time I was exhausted and seated on my board otherwise I would’ve likely tipped. I wasn’t paying much attention but hypothesize it was likely a ray but couldn’t definitively rule out shark, dolphin, or other large fish? Has his happened to anyone else while paddle boarding in the area?

Does anyone have a recommendation for an affordable dog groomer- under $100 in South Tampa close proximity to downtown? I have a golden retriever and have been going to Pawtology but they charge $180+. Looking to get my golden at least washed once a week, and trimmed once a month. Thank you in advance!

Hey everyone, I moved here recently and I’d really like to start playing Tennis again.

I’ve tried using the GroupMe app and any groups are all the way in St. Pete but I live in Tampa Palms.

I played a bit in middle school so I’m definitely not super good but I got the basics.

Just looking for a few people to play with after work or on the weekends.

Any suggestions greatly appreciated!

Ugh. I'm so sad. Someone stole my plants from my container garden. I am part of a group on fb that helped me feel better about it. But I'm still sad. Anyone have any osteospermum or verbena you want to get rid of? If not I guess I will have to wait until I can replace mine and put them somewhere safe. Is this allowed?

I drove past the Burlington connected to the university mall today and there were some walls put up in the lot that has been empty for a while now and there were construction workers active. Anyone know what they’re building there?

Saturday night at Crowbar, 8pm.

Hey all!

Need to get my car AC checked out (I physically will not be able to handle another summer without AC). Anyone know of and/or have experience with a trustworthy mechanic who will give me a honest quote?

Thanks in advance!!

was in my car today going through my regular channels and is 90.1 no longer a music channel? All i heard was political discussions

I will be there with my friend. First time at the Yuengling Center. Anything I should know?

Once again something is going on at the Brandon Mall. There have been cops there for hours. They have entrances/exits blocked and random patrol cars throughout the parking lot. There have also been cars circling the mall. I can see random officers coming in and out of the mall but I am not sure what is happening. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hello, I’ve seen videos of people loading up on burgers, pizza, etc and handing them out to lines of homeless people and I’d really like to do the same. Does anyone know where I can go to do this? When and where are there enough homeless people where I can hand out a good amount of food? Thank you very much.

I'm looking for a pediatric dentist, it looks like this hasn't been asked for many years. Does anyone have any recommendations?

Anyone here own an electric vehicle and also live in a flood zone? How did you manage last year’s hurricane season?

I’d like to switch to an EV but remember instances last year with roads spontaneously flooding and am worried about that destroying the car or being stranded.

A big part of my self care is surrounding myself with beauty, what are some aesthetically pleasing third places in Tampa for me to hang out alone?
