Whats Jif? Over here its a cleaner!

JIF is my favorite peanut butter in the whole world! I have to find a new favorite now though. Tonight, I picked up some Smuckers Natural w/Honey. It was a toss up between that one and the Smuckers Organic Natural, but the one w/Honey had less sodium!
 
You know - if you've been away - there's no catching up...I'm learning this the hard way ;) It's like anything else, you just go from where you're at ;)

Welcome back!

Afternoon :) Sounds like you had a great trip and are back raring to go! Keep up the good work photocrazed! Hope the leg is improving :)
 
Eh, I haven't gotten on the treadmill yet, but it's coming up later today after some more shopping etc. I plan to take a nice leisurely stroll and see how I do and go from there.

Yesterday was a fun filled day. I filled out my FAFSA (Financial Aide/Scholarship/Student Loan determining form) for school. I guess I just like to have it done. Also, I register for Summer classes starting tomorrow, so I need to figure out which classes I'll be taking. I have already found a few major requirements that I need and am trying to figure out if I should take either an exercise class or a weight training class. ..I'm thinking I'll take a weight training class now and an exercise class the 2nd summer session. It really sucks that the PhysEd classes are either 8am-10am or 10:15am-12:15pm. Even though they are 2 hour long courses, they still only give 1 credit for the class. I think the class should be shorter since I get only 1 credit, but hopefully it will benefit me. The class is Mon-Thur 5/21 to 6/21 and should help out with my weight loss. I hope I have the $ to take the courses I need to take!
 
Sounds pretty cool. What's your major? I'm sure I know this already and have just forgotten, sorry. lol
Yuck, student loans... I hate them. :mad: I hope everything goes smoothly and you don't run into any snags getting the money for your courses.

So far, I haven't had to take out any student loans. I'm an English Major and will be a Senior going into the summer courses. I have 91 of my 120 credits almost complete! WOOHOO! I'm thinking though that I may need to take $ to finish out the last year and just deal with the small amount of debt. I'm very fortunate that I haven't had to take $ yet, and have been able to pay for it all on my own since I don't qualify for financial aide. I may have to apply for some scholarships though. :) Maybe i'll get one if I apply.
 
lol I majored in american!
Nah, i always wondered about that at school too. .

Wow fantastic that you have done it all loan free, over here EVERYONE gets a loan, the govt loans you money for costs for anyone and everyone. You pay it back when you pay tax when you eventually get a job (higher/different tax bracket than normal)
 
I did my first 2 years straight outta high school 1998-2000. I graduated with two associates degrees May 2000. Got engaged in June and married in October, from then on, I put school on the back burner and worked M-F until Aug 2005. I wasn't happy at all with my job in insurance and the commute here where I live, I quit my job completely. Decided to apply for substitute teaching and decided to go back to school again. I eventually want to be a teacher (what I have wanted to do since childhood).
 
i find it strange that you call your language english and not american. hmmm
have you heard some of us speak? what we speak bears no resemblance to english at all :)

I'm impressed that someone can actually get close to getting out of school without going into debt... that was such a funtreat at graduation - to get that little booklet of loan repayments :)
