Hi gals.

Sorry I haven't been around for quite some time. I'll update you some other time.

I need advice pronto! I have to work on my personal statement (finally decided to go back to school) and I have asked for the assistance of the "educator". He's asked to go to Starbucks to work on it, but I feel funny in going to a Starbucks because everybody's gonna hear about my personal life!

I need to email him to confirm plans, but should I ask for a better suggestion to meet because I don't want other people listening in on me talking about my personal life/stories? Maybe I shouldn't ask that because it sounds like I'm lacking in the confidence department, right?

Do you have any other suggestions instead of Starbucks? I was thinking of the park, but it's supposed to be colder outside this weekend. And probably windy (don't want my papers to fly away!). HELP!!!!

I'm thinking of meeting this Saturday. Boy, am I going to be double nervous.

Please respond quick!!!!!

Thank you, all!

Starbucks kinda sings college stuff to me and when I go there, I don't listen in on other peoples conversations unless they are being super loud.  I say stick with his idea and just have some things written up before you get there so that you have notes to refer to just in case you draw a blank.

Good Luck and please keep us posted!!!

Thanks, Kristie!

I just emailed back to him, giving him my cell number. I didn't ask for a better suggestion to meet, but rather, I just said to give me a call and we'll discuss on a place and location.

We'll see how this goes. I'll definitely keep you gals posted!
