I don't have the heart to set up a mouse trap, but this the third time since December that I've seen it
It scurries across my living room floor really fast and then disappears, and I don't think it stays in my apartment long because I haven't found any mouse poop or anything, but still...
At least it's a small, cute mouse. Unlike the rats I see when I'm staggering home drunk at 2 AM... eww.
Pretty Charlottesville, here I come!

Yea, I notice these things. What can I say...I'm awkward.
Seriously? You mean I'm not the only youngin?
Nothing cooler than being a Tiger and Cancer.
I've never seen any mice in Charlottesville. Just squirrels...and a salamander once...that was really weird.

So 4 of us in 15 days, pretty good. Something about that time in the history of the world spelled out UVA Law.

Now that The Hills is over, I need to go back to my room and work, but I am scared to encounter the mouse. Wish me luck!

A happy hour turned into a happy several hours which, well, y'all get the idea. I'm surprised I can still type.
I've always been more of a Tuesday drinker. Of all the non-weekdays of the week, Tuesday has been the magical boozing day. Tonight just got the better of me.

until this semester when i got really busy, tuesday was always my favorite night to go out, even better than weekends. i always found it wasn't as crowded, but everyone out was awesome. as opposed to weekend crowds full of lots of not-as-awesome types.
i am trying to pack for my trip! i usually agonize when trying to pick out one outfit to wear for a night... how am i supposed to pick out a week's worth?!?!?!?!?!?!

I'm confused - do women pack more than a single string bikini when they travel?

Has anyone requested a deferral from the school this cycle? If so, has it been granted?

I emailed her before I got the 45K though and she didn't answer the question so I emailed again just asking for a confirmation that they won't match and she hasn't answered. It's not a problem, 45K is fine but I figured I might as well ask since 15K isn't nothing. Regardless, it's still 99% attending so it's not like it's a real issue.
Hey gladiator, I wouldn't take it personal. She didn't respond to my email, so I called and got her on the phone. She apologized for not getting back to me and was happy to answer my questions about scholarship matching over the phone and during a 1 hour follow-up conversation. I'd try calling her to follow up on a match. She explained that for most folks with existing offers, they'd re-evaluate after 1st deposit where they stand with scholarship dollars. After that, they look to either give merit awards to folks who previously received $0 or to increase awards for folks who indicated they need addt'l funds.
