I don't know why they even make us bother with the quiz. Well yeah, I know why, they want you to believe they are choosing especially for you. But it's obviously not since everyone gets the same things except for the one thing they pick.

I agree, I put in the quiz that I didn';t want necklaces or bracelets, and somehow they always end up in my original bag.

On the topic of grad school if this is what we are talking about, I say don't do it! hahaha, I've never been so relieved as when I finished my master's and started working full time. I thought I liked school but it is so nice to spend my weekends doing what I want and not having to think about finishing things. Also the money is much much better. I thought my stipend in grad school was generous, but I make about 3 times that a month now lol.
this is how i'm feeling right now haha. i thought I liked school! ugh

Okay, well I woke up to a bunch o' nothin'. A couple of crap trade offers is all. I just checked the news feed and I'm pissed they are putting more of those bib necklaces, thunderbird earrings, and those bead earrings in when people open bags. THERE ARE ENOUGH OF THOSE FLOATING AROUND! GIVE US SOME NEW STUFF LBB, DAMMIT!
ditto. I woke up at 8 and had absolutely ZERO trade offers. that's never happened to me before

Yeah it set in the worst in my second semester, and I honestly should've just quit. My master's was NOT worth the tears, stress, and self hatred it put me through. My job doesn't require a graduate degree right now, but I know I'll be happy to have it later on, but I feel like I wasted 2 years of my early twenties. I'm just glad it's over now.

 
i seriously cannot get rid of this blush...does anyone want it for something they have?? i figured i'd ask here first since it's a makeup forum haha otherwise i'm gonna try to trade it to the leaf bangles or the butterfly necklace...the light pink just isn't my color

alright I FINALLY got rid of the leaf bracelet. I'm okay with having the bib in my bag right now (now that I know it's not enormous). is my best bet to trade back down? i've seen some people able to trade it up though...should I wait it out?

haha i'm in my 2nd right now!! i'm actually just caring less. so i'm procastinating and not getting work down as quickly. like i have 3 presentatiions this week (one wed. and two tomorrow) and i've only finished one of the ones that's due tomorrow...

i'm learning that the less i care, the less stressed i am, and then the better I do. that's so weird for me because i usually live on stress

Yeah, I don't have a problem with the bib necklace, not my style, but neither is the necklace in my bag. But I refuse to trade mine for that one since they flooded the market with it!

 
yeah i would usually refuse to btu since they also flooded the market with my leaf one....haha i had no choice.

It was a good trade, at least you're headed up. But I see two more bags opened...both with those necklaces. They know we have to trade with each other, how can we do that when we have the same things? Why can't they get a program that randomly gives out DIFFERENT things, but of the same value? They have lots of different stuff in stock, but always go with giving the same things to us.

 
Nice try Steph. If I decide to cancel my bag I'll work a deal with you since you were so kind to everyone else. (I am thinking about it and starting over on the 1st)

 
I'm so bummed. Did you see the trade with the wall decal and hat? I was offered that wall decal for my necklace, which I declined...and I've offered that necklace for the hat. I don't really want the hat, but think I could work with it.

haha i thought i'd give everything a try, i'm seeing a lot of people trade up with the bib...so you never know!

and no worries, i'm in the same boat i may be canceling tomorrow as well

 
I'm bummed some more. See the trade between the Nica bag and the pearl necklace and BCBG bracelet? I was offered that bag for my watch, declined, but damn that's one of the few trades I would take for the watch, the necklace/bracelet combo. That necklace is gorgeous.

Well if we both decide to cancel, I'll wait for you to open a new bag and make the deal then. You should be getting two extra pieces right? I don't think it would look right if I traded for like $30 worth of stuff, but with the extras we could probably figure something out that works for you.

okay awesome! that sounds good :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> let's both hope that we dont' have to cancel...but it's always good to have that option. it's not right for us to spend $50-72 on these bags if we aren't happy

 
Yay! I got a decent trade. But...I was checking the trade offers for it and OMG, talk about giving myself a heart attack. I thought I was getting a great trade offer for the necklace and almost accepted...it was a lowball for the watch! I would have cried!

 
The necklace I have in my bag i originally traded for the other necklace, so I'm kind of back to square one. But, I really like this one. I wanted to trade it, work my way up, and eventually get it back to buy with my bag. I want both pieces in my bag now, but I want MORE! *rubs hands together greedily*

 
haha yeah me too. my goal is STILL 180 to keep this bag (and that's if I like the things in it...). now my plan is to combine items, get a bag, and then trade back down to multiple things i can trade up. what i have right now just is not trading
