I’d like to get it in an area related to my masters or bachelors, but those are time-intensive degrees which would need me to stop working full-time, which at this point in my life, I don’t think I can do. But I keep looking for options because I really just want to get it done without going into debt.

I’m struggling with chronic migraines. No relief. and I’m running out of money. I can only work part time right now and my apartment rent is $3200 a month, plus $1100 a month for health insurance. So I hear you about the stress, for what it’s worth.

I was hugely afraid of the whole thing - pregnancy, labor, parenting. I’m having a hard time accepting that my body is and will be different, and now that the actual birth is getting closer the fears of that are coming back. A lot of my fears were things I needed to address with my husband and boiled down to I needed…

I’m preparing for unemployment. My job is ending in two months after working there 7 years (tv show that got canceled). I have one freelance gig started, it’s one day a week, but it’s a start. Things are good and bad. I had wanted to move on from the job anyway, and was casually looking for new jobs when they made the…

Graduated college (after multiple attempts/years), quit my job, grandparent died, got a new job, selling my vehicle, will be buying a new vehicle, looking for a new apartment, planning a wedding and figuring out how to have a child at some point before it’s too late. hahahaha . No, but it’s all good, my canker sores…

Thankfully I’m done with school, and about three years into my career so it was a good time to add on this whole parenting thing.

I moved last weekend, and I’m due to have my first baby in 7 weeks. I’ve been too busy to freak out.

I broke up with my partner of 5 years :/ it needed to end, it was toxic and had been for a while, but it still hurts. And change terrifies me.

My dad is apparently going downhill. My sister’s going out to visit later this month and it’s got to be this big sneaky thing where she’s just “helping with his taxes” and not doing a full checkup on everything because he’s so stubborn. I wanted to go too but she’s hesitant because she doesn’t want him to feel we’re…

Going through physical therapy and acupuncture/Eastern medicine treatments for a frozen shoulder. And they hurt like a bitch.

Popcorn is a whole grain! Of the crunchy, salty snacks, popcorn is really one of the healthiest.

ALL THE CHANGES

You’ll do great. I spent like two hours studying for it, had no idea what was going on half the time, and pulled good enough scores to get into grad school. More power to people like you who do the legwork. You are going to own that thing.

Working and going to school can be intensive, but it’s worth it when you’re finally done. I’m attempting to go back for the doctorate, but I don’t know if I’ll be able to work full time and pursue the degree. Are you going for the doctorate or masters at this point?

I’m facing my reliance on alcohol. I’m not an alcoholic per se, but I definitely use it as a crutch. I’m starting a behavioral trial in a couple of weeks to limit my intake. Good luck with your GRE! You can do it!

I wouldn’t worry too much about the GREs. As long as you prepare for a month or so using a decent study guide, you should be able to do well on them. But as usual, the more preparation, the better off you’ll be. I’d also recommend sticking with ETS study guides since these will be closest to the questions you’ll…

I’m moving back in with my parents at 35. Joining nemesis sibling who has been living there for several years taking advantage of our always-supportive parents and I’m dreading the hell out of it. I’ve lived alone for 10 years and with friends/roommates before that. Unemployment is scary but I’m trying to channel…

I am in the process of buying a house and next week I am interviewing for a better job. Mostly, I am spending 2-3 hours a night trying to shut my brain off.

The GRE sucks but it goes by quickly. Just remember you can go back to questions so don’t run out the clock on one silly thing.
