congrats! your hard work and/or genius in high school is paying off! I wouldn't describe your accomplishments as subpar; receiving a scholarship is great news. I know I was really disappointed when I didn't qualify for the Hinckley scholarship my freshman year (because it included my GPA from PE, an...

It used to be much more common than it is now (I've only heard rumors of the second anointing still happening, and for a while some apostles hadn't had the ordinance). http://content.lib.utah.edu/cdm/ref/collection/dialogue/id/18194 I remember when I f...

Sure, ask! The worst thing they could do is say no (it sounds like they're unlikely to let you go). If it were me I'd probably see if a more senior coworker knew about how raises work---maybe raises are usually given at the end of the year, or maybe only if someone asks for one.

Two of my grad school apps ... To schools in San Diego and Boulder ... Are complete! And thus I become a true Millennial. ;-) Portia! I used to live in San Diego but I don't anymore and I miss it terribly! So if you get admitted to the San Diego school I will tell you all about how you should live ...
