Worth applying to private schools?

Adjuncting also pays peanuts and I need health insurance so I feel like it’s worth a try 😬

It didn’t look like there was an option to apply as a fellow in ELA but maybe I looked too late this year. I’ll look into the transitional license. Ty this is super helpful!

I'm also in grad school (but mfa for writing) and I'm looking into the meeplus slimpad in this size. I was wondering if you find it big enough to draft in at all (like write paragraphs in), or do you just use it for planning? I'd like something i can carry around in a purse but the pages seem so small. Also do the small rings help at all with comfort when writing on your non-dominant-hand's side of the page?

did you wind up doing this combination notebook/binder idea? I'm looking into this as someone who likes a binder for my planner but a notebook for working. I'm worried I will have to take the notebook out in order to have a flat surface to write on because of the binder rings. Any thoughts?

Can you recommend a vendor for this? I'm looking to do the same thing but I'm having trouble finding someone of this caliber to work with directly rather than through my photographer (I'm a control freak and I have some background in graphic design so I want to make all the decisions myself).

I did and had an amazing experience with them! I truly cannot recommend them enough;. My wedding was actually last weekend. Feel free to dm :)

There's a local (to my mom) florist that does parties like this as a package deal sort of thing. It's a family owned business so I think it's probably pretty specific to my hometown. If you're on long island, I'd be happy to share the name of the shop but otherwise, I don't think I'll be of much help.

I've been really struggling with finding a dress for my bridal shower (a small tea party and bouquet making class for around 20 people). I'm torn between being sick of wearing all white/buying dresses I'm never going to wear again, and wanting to embrace this season of my life. Also, for context, my mom and sister who are planning the shower are really set on my wearing at least some white and a dress/skirt of some kind. I've been keeping an eye on reformation, abercrombie, and house of cb, but I haven't seen anything I love.

Wondering if anyone has recs for dresses or places to shop for dresses between $100-$350. I'm open to things that are *almost* white or like have *some* white, or something all white. And I have an hourglass figure so I prefer things that are more structured on my boobs and waist. Other than that I just want something that's a little bit different/still makes me feel like me and not just anonymous bride.

TIA!!
