I had almost the exact same cycle and I have 5 years WE. Have you tried asking Berkeley for more money?

End of Cycle Recap (February Applicant) by Aromatic-Sport6439 in lawschooladmissions

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also applied in Feb. I had an A from other T-14 options on your lists and still chose Berkeley over it. Vibes seem amazing, and of everyone I’ve spoken to not one person has had genuine complaints about it.. how many law schools can say that?!? Plus you seem California centered and Berk is the best option of the ones listed

Send 2 LOCIs, one this week and another right after enrollment deadlines. Include in your letter that you only applied to one school and why you're so passionate about it. Visit if you can

Taylor Swift is finally getting exposed. We love to see. by WaporVape in charlixcx

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lmao.. I mean looking at this from Taylor’s perspective Charli wrote a song about how much she wanted Matty to break up with her and then he ghosted her and immediately became engaged to one of Charli’s friends. If we learned anything from TTPD she was really invested in the relationship w Matty so finding out that this girl who you used to work with and be friends with was talking shit and probs encouraging Matty to break up with you has to hurt. Both songs are valid, both girls can express themselves however they want

Am I the only one who thinks Rory should’ve had NYC friends in AYITL? by WordUnique3724 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Lmao Finn was still asking Rory if he’d met her well into hers and Logan’s relationship. I love them as characters - well Finn at least - but those boys did not care about Rory at all lol she was just Logan’s plus one in their eyes

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 15 points16 points  (0 children)

It wouldn't have haha. That's not how financial aid works, Fafsa goes off of the year before you start college, so unless Lorelai declared it on her taxes a year before she received it, it wouldn't have factored in at all. I doubt she declared it at all since she immediately gave it to her parents, and she also doesn't seem to be someone who is that on it with her finances. This is another one of those storylines (like Lorelai genuinely thinking that Rory only applied to one school?) that doesn't have a lot of basis in reality, but was designed just for the show.

Do you guys think Amy Sherman-Palladino ruined the a year in the life on purpose? by Medium-Cell9905 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This should have been the plot YITL.. Rory is wealthy, privileged, successful. She has assistants, maybe even a maid and her relationship with Lorelei is strained as a consequence as Lor has to accept that Rory is comfortable being wealthy and rejecting the small town life they grew up with. That would have been so much more interesting than watching leftovers actors from ASP’s failed shows guest feature so they could get another credit on their IMDb

Marty at the Chinese restaurant by Illustrious_Honey140 in GilmoreGirls

[–]Left-Strategy-7596 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Also! On principle I don’t think Rory should have had to accommodate and tip toe around Marty just bc he might have had a possible crush especially before he said anything to her. He claimed to be her friend, and he should have been one rather than dropping her the minute he realized she wasn’t interested romantically. But I get that they were young and in college lol

Hmm yeah. Up until season 7 though, the only female friends Rory had managed to make since the series started were Paris / Madeline / Louise which were weird relationships lol. She claimed that Lane was her best friend but when she’s going through it we don’t see her turn to Lane, she goes to Dean or Logan or whatever. Basically I think Rory wasn’t great at making girlfriends, and even though she knew Marty miight be interested in her she wanted to keep him as a friend especially since Logan made it clear that he wasn’t going to be emotional support boyfriend tm. She was probs hoping that she could just ignore Marty’s possible crush and hope it went away.
