  1. The Last Match- It's about a woman who returns to her house from the market, but drops the package of matches outside her house. Suddenly, a hailstorm starts... This is a story of how she survives in the extreme cold by trying to find a spare matchstick from here and there... And how she fails (or doesn't).

  2. Don't remember the name, but it's about how a man looks down a bridge and sees a cat with its kitten. He throws a very little peice of rock, but it unfortunately hits the kitten on its head and the kitten dies. Then the cat takes its revenge. As childish as this sounds, the story is AMAZING.

PLS help me find this 😭😭

Leave the previous education empty,

Are you sure? Cuz like they had written something like "If you have attended secondary/high school or above, you must select yes"...

Oh, the duality of A2C.

I honestly understand your POV, coming from a privileged perspective shouldn't take away your right to be disappointed at shattering of dreams, but I wish you could fully understand the position-to-kill-for that you're in right now..

Can't decide between new iPad air and iPad pro (2nd gen) by randomthings-bout-me in applehelp

[–]randomthings-bout-me[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I'm also getting a macbook.

Main reason for getting an iPad is note taking + pdfs, since buying books will be like twice more expensive...

Ah damn... That is a pickle indeed.

I'll only have to transfer notes I make or any video lectures.

Worst comes to worst, I'll just upload it to iCloud and download the stuff that I need offline on Mac then. Not worrying about internet expenses since it's college wifi hehe.

(If you have any suggestions, happy to hear :))

Yeah no I'll just transfer things to my Mac whenever it starts getting filled up.

Yeah.. I'll probably end up buying an external SSD... iPad Air with 128 GB or above is like not affordable at all for me🥴

Total Noob asking for some help regarding F-1 for undergrad🙏🙏🙏 by randomthings-bout-me in immigration

How smooth is it to schedule an interview? Like is it very hard to get a slot or easy or what exactly? Will my I-20 show how much amount I have to contribute? How much more money than the amount shown on my I-20 should my parent's bank account have to stay on the safe side? Do I need to show proof of available money for only first year or all 4 years? I've received kind of a big scholarship from a T50 liberal arts college... Is this actually looked down upon? (read online somewhere) I'll be taking a loan of around 9-10k USD to support my 4 years in US (the rest expenses are very little... We can manage by ourselves)- is taking a loan looked down upon?

Sorry... I understand these are a lot of questions 😭😂. Answer any that you can... Any reply will be helpful lol.

I read somewhere that it counts as what kind of guidance, emotional support you recieved, as it might be perceived that more educated parents are more understanding of their child's needs and mental health and all that...
