On Betting on Love, Leveling Up and Leaving Atlanta
@sockhop I would go to that! I'd love to get out of Atlanta too, because I've lived in Georgia forever and need a change. For now I'll settle for moving ITP, since I'm too scared to move somewhere without a job.

On Tuesday Check-In: The Long Weekend
$26.41 for tapas and bottomless sangria + $3.05 for some risotto at Trader Joes. I didn't get out much.

On Lying Not The Best Career Strategy, Turns Out
@AnnieNilsson I had a teacher in high school who somehow earned a college degree without ever graduating from high school. But no one ever bothered to care whether she had a high school diploma so she got to continue teaching IB and gifted classes.

On Books I Acquired Last Year for Little or No Money
I recently found a half.com coupon code for free shipping up to $25 with a minimum of a $10 order. I got 11 books for around $9 (one of my books ended up being out of stock and they refunded the full price of the shipping I didn't pay) by buying a bunch of $.75 books from two sellers. It was pretty awesome.

On Haircut Negotiations
I recommend befriending some housewives who used to cut hair professionally but now just do it out of their houses. They're probably the best part of living in the suburbs. My last cut perfectly good cut was $10 and she wouldn't accept a tip, either. I can't fathom paying the $40-50 +tip that most of my friends do, let alone $100.

On Three Months of Coffee
I decided not to spend more than $20/mo on coffee and it's sort of working, if only because I've given up on life outside of my bedroom when I'm not working.

On Places I Have Lived: Disgusting Carpet, a Lone Cockroach, and a Hole in the Ceiling
I lived in Dearing Garden for 2 years and it was the best. $325/mo, walking distance to downtown/EVERYWHERE, and so much more charming than the big student apartment complexes.

On Welcome to College, Kids
Mine is on a shelf on my bedroom, still in its original tube.
