That is Goose's self-tar. Which is why all the cool kids are UVA bound.

[Wellsfargowagon]

Be on the lookout for a freakishly tall blonde guy, possibly walking with a limp if his broken foot isn't healed by then...

[greygoose]

there's the facebook group for the self-tar. only flaw with adriana lima, that weird gap between the front two teeth, pity...

[Wellsfargowagon]

Eh, her neckline a much larger crevice that tends to draw the eye...

[greygoose]

i'm willing to overlook those gigantic flaws by focusing on her other positives: personality.

[Wellsfargowagon]

By "neckline crevice," I meant cleavage in case the reference was too vague And yes, she does have a great... personality. A pair of great ones really.

double checking for financial aid:

we only fill out fafsa and the form on the UVA website "Application for Financial Aid 08-09 Academic year"?

double checking for financial aid:

I'm pretty confident that this is right. At least, it's all I planned on doing...

[greygoose]

cool, just need to send out the 2nd form. including the easy link to ivy gardens (note: open saturdays)

http://www.ivygarden.com/home.htm

btw what are people thinking about doing for furniture, etc.? it doesn't seem that any of the apartments are fully furnished...

[bauerahl]

None of the apartments are furnished. Walmart is your answer!

[greygoose]

man, copeley becomes more enticing every day after everything is factored:

no need to sublet
no need to rent/buy furniture
no need to buy for utilities separately

only drawback: double occupancy...

[gladiator]

Graduate Centre seems so much better than Copeley. There's no way I'd consider a double occupancy room in law school.

[aguyingeorgia]

If I decide to attend UVA, who will help me move my furniture.

TLS love where are you? LOL

[Wellsfargowagon]

Goose, I'd consider double occupancy in tiny bedrooms a dealbreaker, at least during 1L. Worse than two beds to a room, both desks are in the room also. Whatever inconvenience utilities, furniture, etc. may cause pales in comparison to coordinating daily schedules with someone who works and studies in the same room as you.

Wal-Mart, Target, IKEA, Craigslist... all good options. Even better, I'm also sure that there are undergrad seniors and 3Ls putting up ads for moving sales in April/May.

[J-Rod]

Well ladies and gents . . . I will be joining you at UVA in the fall!!!!!

Anyone looking for an apartment and a roomate?

Also, which ASD are you all attending, I think I'm going on March 28th

[aguyingeorgia]

My avatar is actually me, but that doesn't mean I don't need any help.

I know TLS wants to support my furniture moving. I can sense it.

Anyone looking for an apartment and a roomate?

I'm probably picking Graduate Centre if I end up at UVa...might be looking for a roommate (meaning apartmentmate not actual roommate). It's a pretty nice place unless you must be in the center of the social scene. It's a nice central location between the law school, Barracks, and JPJ though.

GuyinGeorgia, I may or may not help you move your furniture. Maybe I help you with furniture, you wake up at 6 AM when breaks start and drive me to the Amtrak station so I don't have to waste money to park there. Also, are you an UGA fan? They're my 2nd favorite college team (after UVa).

[OldBlue]

gladiator why are you leaning towards GC over ivy and huntington?

[gladiator]

I think they're a little further away from the law school and Barracks, more expensive (I think), and I'd actually prefer to be away from the main social scene. I'd never forgive myself if I got worse 1L grades because I picked the more social location. There might be other reasons but I don't really remember what they are. Graduate Centre is 4 to a large suite with private bedrooms and baths compared to Ivy which I believe are more traditional apartments, not sure if that turns some people off.

[J-Rod]

anyone willing to live not right on campus?

Some of the off campus apartments within 1-4 miles of the law school are really nice and cheap

anyone on here have AIM?

[J-Rod]

The Grand Marc At The Corner seems really nice! It's about 2.1 miles away from the law school, but for $750/month for a two bedroom it'd be hard to find a better deal

[greygoose]

congrats JROD!

btw i'm also going the 28th. not sure about roommates. i'm strongly considering splitting a two bedroom so rent is about 500 before utilities, etc.

[J-Rod]

anyone here bringing parents along to the ASD?

[nipplehead]

anyone here bringing parents along to the ASD?

my pops. i'm bringing him to all my ASDs, because he's helping pay for law school. and he's awesome.
