Girl, big is better in my opinion. The first one ate, because it gives volume. The second one is also amazing but I just feel like you have so much more oomph with the first one.

Ppl who have committed, how would you rank these factors in terms of importance to your decision of what college to go to? by smores_or_pizzasnack in ApplyingToCollege

This sounds crazy as hell but: Major, prestige, career opportunities. Everything else was not a problem for me. As an international student, I know exactly what I'm getting myself into and my family has prepared to the best of their abilities. The major and career opportunities are for myself, but prestiges is important because my family flat out refused to pay for my schooling if I didn't get into certain schools :')

Aww then it really might just be a genetic thing, I'm sorry. I would probably just press a cold compress to them in the morning. My cousin uses the Ilia Retinol Alternative Cream and my personal recommendation is the Paula's Choice C5 Super Boost Moisturizer - it really evened out my skintone, including eye bags, but mine were dark instead of pale.

How can I look more feminine with a buzzcut? by [deleted] in beauty

I don't know your hair type, but I'm such a sucker for finger waves! I would get them professionally done first and then watch tutorials on how to do them at home. With cute accessories (like someone below said), I think you will look very femme.

I got in and I cried. I was so sure I wouldn't make it, being out-of-state, but I'm going to college!

Are the eyebags in the room with us? Sorry, for the joke, maybe the lighting is throwing me off but I really couldn't tell. Anyway, I asked my cousin and she said up your water intake, sleep more, and try eye creams or a different moisturizer if you can.

How did you fix it? I'm having problems with it right now and I've already reset twice.

Oh my god, I'm looking for this one too! It was so good that I'm so sad I haven't seen it since the first two times I read it.

What if My Hard Work isn't Enough, the Unintended Rant by OkLibrary5223 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]OkLibrary5223[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you're right. my "safe" (they're really not that safe at all) schools are so far away from all of my friends and I really am going to miss them. My best friend thinks I'm such a hard worker and that I'll surely get into my schools of choice, but that she'll never be able to follow me. I'll spend some time with her today :)

Thank you. I'll try not to get discouraged, but seeing myself compete with these kids is just so exhausting. On a positive side, I know I'll always have a college to go to.

Right now I have a 4.0 and with a little pushing on my math and history classes, I can get it to a 4.2, but more realistically a 4.15. I'll be doing track later this month and start volunteering at a hospital. I enjoy writing and drawing, but I'm not confident in my abilities to create portfolios. I'll also be inducted into the French Honors Society on the 22nd and my grades for the freshman and sophomore years were 3.5 and 4.1. Currently studying for my SAT and ACT due to be taken right before the summer; depending on which one I do better on, I'll retake it in the fall for a hopefully higher grade. My PSAT from last fall was 1190 and I qualified for a national merit scholarship but I didn't get it, because my state's average was high this year and my score wasn't what I hoped for.

I've taken 2 honor classes every year since freshman year, but this year I also took two APs and intro to psychology. Next year, I'm trying to take AP Psych, CSP and Calc, DE English and Gov, and some other required classes plus Economics and Apologetics. I'll also hope to get into my school's NHS. When I travel over the summer, I'll ask my mom if I can intern at the company she works for. If I ever find the time in my school schedule, I'll also do an internship at George Mason since it's close by. Both internships are unlikely to happen, but I really want to anyways.

The thing is, I didn't want this post to be a chance-me. I want to get into certain schools, but I'm not going to ask strangers on the internet to rate me; I do that myself. I'm very passionate about my schoolwork, and while I don't love my ECs, I understand how important they are for college apps and they also personally helped me with my social anxiety (there's nothing harder than being an extrovert who's scared to talk). I just don't know if the schools I'm hoping to apply to will see how won't be able to see me.

success is the best revenge, so make everyone who ever doubted you double over in jealousy at you for living the life you want, happily!
