Because I am. A lot. <br /><br />Also, perhaps someone on here may be able to give me some advice. I'm finished applying, but that means that I have a lot of exhausted professors who have written me letters of recommendation and I'm trying to think of what I should do to thank them. I don't feel that sending a nice card is enough. Does anyone have ideas or experience with this issue? I should probably add that I am abroad, which complicates matters quite a bit from my end.<br /><br />callastem, I think it does indeed mean we should be friends. It will be interesting to see which programs we make it into with such similar choices!mashed potatohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14381457552406925162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15642985.post-89628594498413047852011-01-21T19:03:09.476-08:002011-01-21T19:03:09.476-08:00Then your real name is code for awesome!Then your real name is code for awesome!AlishaKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02044614603455857271noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15642985.post-63584864486939185362011-01-21T18:28:40.656-08:002011-01-21T18:28:40.656-08:00My real name is Sheerah!My real name is Sheerah!Almond Punchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15663388973541965538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15642985.post-45539328767785889652011-01-21T16:23:26.861-08:002011-01-21T16:23:26.861-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17310432779581740533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15642985.post-50240730051445271282011-01-21T12:10:25.303-08:002011-01-21T12:10:25.303-08:00UT-Michener
