That's awesome!!! Congrats! Oh, and btw...try renting books from websites like chegg.com whenever possible. It will save you a TON of money. I saved over $200 just this semester, so look into it. grin

Who saw that coming?! crazy

I know that this is the chance that I have been waiting for, and all I have to do is take it. And Im sure that Ill get over being labeled as having "exceptional financial need"! This is it guys, I have some pretty heavy duty decisions to make in the next little while.


Does it matter how we "should" feel about something? Feelings don't make sense! You can make these choices and make yourself happy. wink I believe in you!
