I received that Scholarship for the conference to KY.

Most people would be happy, huh? LOL

I just received the notice by e-mail and must confirm soon. I was hoping, when I opened the e-mail, that it would say something like this:

"We're sorry to inform you that you were not selected as a recipient for this year's Scholarship. Furthermore ( Read more... )

Oh! I was hoping that the email will say .. "... the venue for the conference has been moved to Reno and you need only have 10% of attendance..". No chance of that?

Am I ungrateful or what? LOL

Helllllllllo. Prioritizing? That's what you're trying to do. Me, er, Reno before KY. Right? ;-)

Definitely you before KY. ;) Like I told M...don't these people think of me and my wants? I'll go to their ridiculous little Conference, but I don't have to like it! *pouts*

LOL

Darn! I was really hoping that I could talk you out of it.

Don't they understand what they're going to make you miss?!

Oh no! Do you have to go to the conference?

Can you not feign an illness which means travelling to Reno for the only known possible cure?

*sigh* Unfortunately, I do. My boss has been after me to go to this one since last year. Ugh.

But...hmmmm...I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to convince them of an illness with no cure around her in this po-dunk town. :)

Hey... I see you managed to wake up just fine this morning. LOL

What a bummer about that scholarship! So there's no getting out of it then? If only it was like M suggested... the email had read it's going to be held in Reno. What a perfect world that would be! ;)

Surprisingly, I feel pretty good today. I'm sure I'll crash tonight...two late nights in a row, my body's probably just still in shock. LOL

The one time I didn't want to win something. LOL I think my boss thinks this Conference is important...she even mentioned it in my interview, but I wiggled out of it last year. *sigh* Can't press my luck. LOL

Wouldn't that change of venue been perfect!
