So, I know we have our rants thread but I thought it would also be good to have a "Good News" thread. Where we can share good family news, good deals, etc. I've been keeping an eye out on a Hobo International Zoe in Lilac since last year, maybe even the winter before - I'm not sure but awhile now. I'm showing a friend the brands I like and look it up on Ebay only to see it on there (NWT + Free Shipping + 99.9% feedback on over 10,000 items) for $30! It retails $88! Paul got it, and it was so cool and exciting - what a HUGE savings. And, I found out I have a HUGE credit on my school balance so I used part of it to pay for my housing deposit instead of my mom and dad paying extra. It was so nice because I hurt my knee here, and had to go to the hospital and then foot a 200 Euro bill (which will be reimbursed, but not for a little) so it was just, really great and I'm happy and gracious to God for this little bit of sunshine  |

I'm excited that my parents are coming out to State College on Sunday to spend Easter with me. The past two years, I've went home with my boyfriend for Easter - last year my mom was still in the hospital on Easter after her liver transplant, so it'll be nice to spend it with them. :-)

Okay, I have another reason to be excited. I'm in the process of setting up my first phone interview for an internship this summer! :-)

* I felt my little baby move for the first time last week! * Sally was accepted into our first choice private school after being wait-listed for 2 months. There was a last-minute cancellation and she aced her interview and got the last spot! * We are moving into our new house in Houston tomorrow! * Earlier this week I placed an order from www.barefoottess.com for 'extended size' shoes and both pairs that I bought came today and fit perfectly! I have been struggling with finding women's shoes for my size 15 "freak feet" since I was about 13 years old (almost half my life!) and I was thrilled to open the box, try them on and not be disappointed for the first time in several years! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! |

I just got an email that I won my department's Academic Excellence Award for first year grad students for a nice bit of money to go toward my second year of grad school. I didn't even know this award existed - I was so suprised & excited!
