- I'm beyond relieved. My financial aid advisor responded to my Special Circumstances Appeal, and the results brought me to tears-of joy! The financial aid committee gave me $15,000 more in grants, not loans, grants! It was such a pleasant surprise, especially because I had only asked for $10,000 more. I am so grateful! Now I can comfortably begin my sophomore year of college.

- I had a dream about my ex last night. In the dream, my ex's Instagram account-the one I haven't checked in almost two weeks-had 14.4 million followers. He was famous, and so was his girlfriend. She was a Broadway singer.

Perhaps my urge to check their social media manifested into a dream. After I woke up, I had the strongest urge to check, but thankfully, I didn't. I can't wait until I am free of this addiction.
