I mean, for Chrissake, it's the internet. If you want rah-rah you go girl encouragement, talk to your mom.

This is why I love you.

But really, we like to give PNMs realistic advice based on the info they povide. If we told EVERY girl who came here (NO MATTER WHAT HER SITUATION) stuff like "OMG you should SO go for it! You'll totally get a bid." when it wasn't neccessarily true, we'd be doing them a disservice. Girls would be like "Why didn't they tell me that (for example) being a junior would make it almost impossible for me to get a bid?" We're not mean, just honest.
