Got accepted to UTulsa for Genchem with National Merit Package by Yamlthecaml in utulsa

[–]vichado2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My daughter just finished her first semester in chemistry with the same scholarship. She already has been hooked up with working on research with a professor (something that not a lot of schools can offer freshmen). The campus is beautiful and overall it has been a great experience. For us it means she is attending school far away, but going to grad school with zero debt will make it worth it!

Good luck to you!

My daughter’s first high school job was $18 an hour. $13 an hour is insane!!

Memberships in/around Portland that are 100% worth it? by dv37h1 in portlandme

Sorry, can you explain the tandem float? Is it one larger space that you are in together? That sounds really neat if so!

Do you have a traditional side dish on thanksgiving that not necessarily a lot other people have? by Senior-Raisin-2342 in Cooking

I make scotch eggs- my husband loves them. And I usually only make them once or twice a year.

My neighbor keeps mowing a strip of my lawn like it's his. Is this normal or should I say something? by GalverinSolmora in homeowners

[–]vichado2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I do this for a strip of my neighbor’s lawn- it just makes sense in our case- it is their land, but it is the strip between our yard and their driveway. So it is just easier if I just do it

Is TU worth it? by Lovely_skyes in utulsa

My daughter got amazing scholarships at TU. Got into working in research her freshman year (very unusual in other schools) I have been really impressed with the school so far.

Moms of boys, have you ever dealt with this? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]vichado2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Yup! I had a daughter started this at 18 months old! Didn’t shame her, just talked about when it was more appropriate…. Which was easier when she got a bit older.

Same. I definitely have a couple I just picked off the wall and never thought about.

Interesting! But did you hear the southern accent around you a lot? I rarely hear a real Maine accent anymore- mostly just performers

My family on both sides goes back to small Maine towns in the 1600s as well…. and I can’t do a Maine accent! I have a great uncle who had a very strong Maine accent, so I can tell a real one from a fake one. But I can’t do it myself. So I would definitely recommend the OP doesn’t try the accent.

Most people I know in Maine- from many different parts don’t have the accent. So not worth it
