Thanks y'all. I appreciate the love!

I've accepted, but sorry Adam, I'm staying nice and close to SESF as this program is online [emoji51][emoji23]

You realise that moving to Kansas would be a lot cheaper, as you wouldn't have to pay the Self Edge tax on your income and savings?

Congratulations!

^ Thanks Rafa! I appreciate it bro!

This is going to be my second masters; this being the one that focuses on what i actually want to do and not just something i have interest in. I'm very excited for what is coming up and what will be, i'm sure, an amazing experience…even if i won't be there physically. lol

And I know Kansas would be cheaper, but I'm not willing to relocate at this point in time. Who knows about the future though?

What's academic advising?

[deadendpro]

The academic advising MS will deal with studying primarily 3 things: theories of how to engage in college counseling with the goals of success and personal growth for the student, best practices when it comes to best serving different student populations and once Those two matters at hand are dealt with, there is additional studies to specialize in, such as advanced practices interacting with veteran students, student parents, student athletes, etc.

Good luck…...Way beyond me...

[deadendpro]

Lol, thanks G-Man! I'm ready and excited to be thrown in.

It's 14th January here in Oz, and 13th in the States.

Unfortunately being a day ahead of the US doesn't mean I can tell you what the Powerball numbers are for this evening. Sorry.

Stumbled across this on some site… pretty cynical though:

Oh man, that sucks. It reminds me of a losing scratch-off ticket when they have one number off of all your numbers so you feel like you were so close to winning.

Need to watch Die Hard in tribute to Alan Rickman!

She's usually right.  She's smart and pretty, too.  Luckily for me, she has terrible taste in men.

Sounds a lot like a certain Paula from Gosport, UK…

Breezy. Chilly.  Under weather, I guess FZFG BLZN stands for-the obvious.

Attention all journalists! With the current stock market crisis in China we're seeing a lot of photos like this used to illustrate stories.

Red symbolises wealth and good fortune for the Chinese, and so the rise / fall colours are flipped. The above is actually a booming market, rather than one that's crashing.
