Ms 12dn94dst,
Well put. I agree with everything that you say especially about the crab situation. I'm from a small town and not many people have degrees there. I will be getting my Bach in Fall '00. Those who get them, leave the area. So every time I go home I hear about the negative things that have happened to me (weight gain, that I've been in college for an extra year [due to transferring]) and people try to find something bad (have you been pregnant, had an abortion, do you drink at those wild parties you go to). My answers to all of those are NO. But it kills me when I want a "you're doing good for yourself" instead of all the bullshit that I do hear. So 12dn94dst, thanx girl. This has hit a soft spot in me. You speak nothing but the truth.
