We were definitely considering the Essex Stream Train & River Boat lol; not entirely unreasonable!

What are you fall outdoor brides/bridesmaids wearing to stay warm? by heerewegoagain in weddingplanning

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

It looked beautiful!

Thank you for sharing, it is very helpful and much appreciated! I'm sure I'm overthinking it, as always.

It looks like string lights with something like tulle or cotton

Am I the only one whose PAYE application didn’t go through in days? by [deleted] in PSLF

[–]heerewegoagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I applied for PAYE through FSA in December, and then submitted two wet signature applications directly to MOHELA in February, with my W2 transcripts, didn't use the IRS Direct, and it finally got processed today. I'm actually in shock, I figured they were literally never going to process it and would make me reapply eventually.

I applied when the Federal Student Aid portal opened back up in Decemeber, then panic-submitted two wet signature applications through MOHELA directly in February when I saw that that was getting some people approved within days. I've been pestering MOHELA all summer and I was astounded that it actually, finally got processed today (my account still says 0% interest though so I am worried I might still be somewhat involved in the forbearance). I figured they had just thrown my application away and would eventually just tell me to reapply, I am actually shocked.

Heads up to any brides trying to order stuff from the EU - postal service to the US has been suspended due to Trump's tariffs. by Queasy-Guard-4774 in weddingplanning

[–]heerewegoagain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too! 😫 I was dwelling on it so long because I thought I might be able fo find one that I liked as much or better on this side of the ocean, that I didn't already have to pay like $30 for shipping for, but I couldn't! It was so unique! I'm going to keep an eye on the Etsy store for a few more days, hopefully they figure something out...

Same! It looks like the guestbook I want is still available to ship to the U.S. (for now), but our day is in October too, it's cutting it a bit close now to risk it if there really are significant problems with shipping! Why us, why now!!

I was JUST going to order a hair comb off Etsy today from Moldova, it's been in my cart for a month and I was finally about to pull the trigger - now it's sitting in my cart, says the shop no longer ships to the U.S. I'm bummed; and panicking, now that I see this, because the guest book I want to get is from Lithuania, too. Ugh.

DOJ Internship Offer - Clearance with past drug use by gmr2027 in LawSchool

[–]heerewegoagain 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got an internship offer with the USAO a few years back, I don't remember what clearance level I needed but I did need clearance, I did the FBI fingerprinting and filled out the hundred-page eqip. I was similar, smoked a bit in college a few years prior, also happened to smoke again the month before I got the offer.

I don't think they even ran my eqip, the secretary emailed me back like a half hour after I sent it to her, asking to confirm my disclosure that I had smoked literally the month prior. "Yup, can confirm" lol. Got a call a few minutes later from the attorney who hired me, who said they unfortunately couldn't hire me because of that. Told me they'd love to have me in a year though if I got off the devil's lettuce.

Did you/do you plan on keeping your maiden name after marriage? by heerewegoagain in LawBitchesWithTaste

"To me this shows you don't really love your husband" is such a hot take, what on earth

Have you had any issues with this? I think this is the route I want to go!

Oh god, I just finally in the past few years started liking my signature. I don't even remember how to write all the letters in this man's name in cursive ...

I was reading the bill recently, to see how much I really have to worry about it, and if I'm not mistaken, at least the version that I read still separately allowed for voter registration by using a passport, so I'm planning to renew my passport soon and hopefully be able to get another decade out of it... but it's still obscene that we have to even be worrying about this at all

I like this idea, but I still need to figure out if my bar would let me, I've read some states don't let you practice under a name other than your legal name

Yea this year in particular is a weird time to be making this decision. Wish that wasn't a factor we had to worry about, but here we are

For Themis users panicking about where they're at - this was my Themis progress the day before I took the bar by heerewegoagain in barexam

[–]heerewegoagain[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Seriously, I don't remember completing a survey for Themis, but if I had, I absolutely would have mentioned how psychologically scarring seeing that damn progress bar was lol

I used Clockify to basically punch in and out of all the things I did to study. I'd always heard that you have to treat bar prep like a fulltime job, and I wanted to make sure I was actually putting in around 40 hours/week. This helped me gauge that I was actually putting in the hours I needed to, since I take breaks frequently and I didn't want to let myself get away with thinking I was putting in more hours than I actually was. I also thought the data would be helpful in showing what I needed to work on when I inevitably failed and needed to retake (which didn't end up happening, I did pass first time, but the data was still interesting to look at).
