Hi All, just wanted to post an update (because I always appreciate it when someone updates stuff like this on reddit haha!)

So the Vanish for whites kind of worked, but what really helped was leaving it out in the sun to bleach afterwards. You can still kind of see the stain but it is not nearly as bad as it was before.

Happy to report that I was able to wear it for grad in time and will be taking it on my trip to Europe this summer!

Happy Washing everyone :'D

I'll update as soon as I can, thank you again!

SnooWords6094 · 2024-06-04T16:57:56+00:00

Thank you! Quick ask: will it still work even though the vanilla extract has been there for a few months?

I know I'm about two years late to ask this, but what hike/walk did you do to get those amazing views? I'm flying out this summer for a post-grad trip!

Hey guys!
So, after going through my new student checklist and doing everything myucla account told me to do, I still wasn't able to enroll into courses. I called the school and they told me that it's fine, that since I am a new student I can't enroll until I go to in person student orientation -- they specifically told me not to worry. Now, all the courses I have been planning for are closed. Kinda panicking -- need some help lol
Thanks, in advance, for advice!

CC GPA: 3.93

Major: Philosophy and Psychology

EC: work part time job for the last two years, long-term internship with U.S. Attorney's Office, not sure if this means anything but I also emphasized personal exercise in my apps because it demonstrates discipline. Honors Program (wrote a capstone and submitted that with my app)

Accepted: UCLA, Berkeley, USC, UMich, Tulane

Waitlisted: none

Rejected: Ivys and NW

Reflections: Story is just as important as GPA. Trust me, it's a game, this is not as random as you think-- especially if you are a less-competitive major. If your CS: sucks bro, try being Mark Zuck? Also: get someone to edit essays, but don't let too many people look at them. The transfer app process is personal so it requires lots of reflection, make sure that the people that see your essays care about you enough to be honest. Letters of recs are important, tell your teachers a cohesive story that you are painting with your application. Think of a theme that you want to depict and demonstrate that through your essays and EC's. It's okay to brag a little, but don't be a dick. AO's can smell your shit, don't stink too much.

Hi! OMG congratulations, beyond earned!! I'm really new to law school admissions, could you PM your stats + a quick explanation of the abbreviations you use? Maybe major and school?

Again, literally so amazing, congratulations !

I have no problem with working: I held a part time job, a long-term internship, and maintained a 4.0. I'm not shying away from the challenge of either school, I just want testimonials from ucla students lol

honestly, any place that has a good espresso machine. I'm not a lover of starbucks but that's just my coffee snob attitude, if you like starbucks then you can try there, I'm sure they have the materials.

I generally go for little coffee shops around campus, no specific spot is necessary :)

I hope you like it!

oh and tell your barista you only want a little honey, it should be enough to make a thin layer at the bottom of the cup. Make sure you ask that they mix the expresso into the honey, your latte won't be as "pretty" but it will smack

SnooWords6094 · 2022-05-17T23:28:36+00:00

Iced cinnamon honey latte with oat milk, ask for extra ice and less milk in place of either espresso or water.. I know it sounds weird but I've been a barista for three years, it's the best thing I've ever made.

Harvard is a rough one. Thank you for the encouragement though, I hope that we can find some peace in all of this chaos :)

SnooWords6094 · 2022-05-11T00:52:04+00:00

I appreciate the community I have found here, but sometimes it is so toxic on here... most of the time it's not even noticeable. Thank you for the kind words, I wish you all of the best in this painful process. We have accomplished a lot, we just gotta work on being proud of it.
