      Don't let 'em corrupt you.

      I'm always still in trouble again

        It's "Haaahvahd"

        congratulations.

        Do we get discounts after you become a famous lawyer?

                    Harvard's law school is probably still helpful if she's aiming to get a job in the field. The name still has a certain cachet attached to it.

                      Precisely. If you want a full time job in the field you better be going to a top 14 school. If you want to make really good money you better be attending a top 6.

                      ETA: If you have any aspirations towards academia or politics in any form, you pretty much have to attend Harvard, Stanford, or Yale.

                        I got my financial aid package today. Mostly loans, but the vast majority of them are eligible for the protection plan, which effectively means I'm only on the hook for about $7000 this year. Not a bad deal for a Harvard law degree. And it covers the vast majority of our living expenses.

                        Y'hoshua and I move out of our Waco apartment in 11 days. My apartment manager found a new renter so we're not on the hook for the reletting fee. We'll spend a week with my parents in north Texas before flying to MA. Our new apartment is already rented and ready except for the utilities.

                        Prayers for my nerves. I want to do this and believe I can, but my anxiety does not handle any change well, much less for moving cross country. Fortunately almost everything is taken care of at this point.

                            Day 3 in MA. Still no furniture. The previous tenant of our apartment did not disconnect their internet service so tomorrow we have to buy our train passes so we can go to a service center and prove we live here to even get internet. In the meantime, we're hanging out in our apartment's internet cafe.

                              if they didn't disconnect their internet, why not just use it?
