And just wanted to let you girls know...I matched! Psychiatry residency at my first choice: DMC/WSU program in Detroit Smilie I would have been happy anywhere - Chicago, NY, or Cali, but I don't know, all my really close friends and family are here, and I've been at WSU for 8 years now, so I kinda didn't really want to leave lol.

And now...back to packing up my apartment, we're moving out on Sunday, and I swear, how the HECK did I accumulate so much crap in two years?!?!

(actually, I know how...thanks to you girls and this thread! shake head LMAO )
Congrats! I'm glad it all worked out for you. hug You will have your friends & family nearby especially your dad to bring you goodies. heart

Quote from SheenaMarie412 :
Thanks! Smilie

btw, I just had a Beauty.com order cancelled because of "backordered items." I went on the site and both the shampoo and conditioner I ordered showed as still in stock. So was the Deborah Lippman nail polish GWP. So I called in about it...and get this, they cancelled my entire order because one of those 3 free foil samples you can get with your order went OOS. I actually came out better reordering the entire thing because they gave me a $5 credit with the cancellation email, and the rep on the phone gave me another $5 credit for the inconvenience. He was soo confused as to why it happened lol. I could understand if it was a GWP with a high value, but if you're gonna cancel because of the little foil sample being OOS...I'd rather you just email and give me the option of cancelling or choosing another one. Actually, I'd rather that they do that, even if it was the GWP that was cancelled. Oh, Beauty.com....
i really wanted to order for the deborah lippmann np also, but i couldn't use my shoprunner with it. i refuse to pay for shipping and don't need anything atm. guess i'm passing on this.

I just got both the umbrella and new swim tote gwp. Love them both. The tote is one of the cutest I've seen in awhile. I'm a sucker for black and pink things!

Yay!! I am so excited to receive my swim tote! I just placed the order yesterday, but I'm pumped to hear that its cute in person! I got the umbrella too. I really didn't need it since the one from last year is still in great shape, but I was buying some of the new colors in the Very Sexy bra anyways, so I qualified! Wink

But on the bright side, it sounds like a good excuse for your family to spoil you and take you were you need to go Smilie

Try to enjoy it!

Thanks, girls! hug I'm super-excited lol! I have another 2.5 months off, so I'm going to do some traveling - I'm spending 3 weeks in NY with my sis in April, and then 2 weeks in India visiting family in May. Also have a friend's wedding at the end of May too, so should be lots of fun! Whee

they screwed me over with the straightener gwp several weeks ago too...i'm not a fan, but with shoprunner and some of these gwp's, they just suck me right back in lol

if the shampoo and conditioner weren't enough to qualify for FS, i would have passed on it too...though the swatches i saw looked really pretty! i wish shoprunner would make it so it was free 2-day shipping if possible OR free ground shipping for non-qualifying orders...that would be awesome. Pray

Fort Walton Beach, it's beside Destin. There's an outlet mall. Planning to hit Coach, LOFT, maybe Dooney.
Owner of Thai restaurant we had lunch at told us about it (we were planning to go even before she told us). Then she specifically told us about the Coach store laugh out loud My sister thinks I look like a shopaholic that's why.

Many of the girls have been doing it this way. I did in the first two when I had way too many. I didn't bother again until now.

Are you going to the outlet in destin? It's nice. Was there last summer.

I've never been to fort Walton. You'll have to let me know how that goes.

I have the fabulous bra in rainbow stripe on the way. I'll let you know what I think about it, when it gets here.
Can't wait for the review since we seem to like the same things. hug

Quote from GoHeels :
Your DH may surprise you & like the zebra print. You should at least try it. I can understand why you wouldn't want to buy something he wouldn't like though. I'm the same way. If I'm on the fence about something, I always ask my DH for his opinion. If I really want it, I don't care what he thinks. I just buy it. : teehee:
I should of just bought it and not showed it to him until after it was on (if I was rockin' it of course.) If it's short and tight in the right places, he can get over the print. Wink

Quote from GoHeels :
FWIW, bra tops don't fit me right either. It could be, because I always wear them with a bra. The only time I wear them without a bra, is when I'm traveling with people other than my DH. I wear them as a pajama top. They don't offer much support sans bra, but they're a bit more modest than not wearing a bra at all.
Any other store I am with you. Bra tops are nothing more than a shelf bra which is just extra lining to me. But I thought with VS or at least I hope, they give support and some padding for a little lift. They don't? Dontknow

Quote from GoHeels :
I hope I like it. Blue zebra was the only color left that would probably look okay with my complexion. I'll let you know what I think, when I get it. I would have ordered leopard too, but I would need a great tan to pull it off. That's kind of unlikely, so I passed. : lol:
I was eyeing that blue zebra too. I was going to start small, my black tankini with the zebra bottoms and move up from there. Coverlaugh

Hire a car service. Wink
Kidding. I hope you are doing well or at least have good drugs to help you deal. My roomie had hers done and I know the first week was the hardest for her. Hope you heal fast.

My brother is looking to buy a vacation home in Destin, it's very nice there. Hope you are enjoying the sunshine state. How can you not with a Coach outlet store?? Wink
