I was recently at a rather fancy wedding recently. The central group was the friends and family of the bride and groom and then there were a large number of affiliates (business partners and a few direct relatives of business partners like me). Id say around 100 attendees. And there was a bar in the room before the dinning room and also a bar in the dinning room. All drinks were free.
I’m wondering what kind of drinks I am supposed to order before the dinner and after the dinner.
For example, I had some white russians before the dinner. Is it bad to order white russians before dinner?

Hello!
I’m hoping that someone out there may be able to give some insight into my chances of acceptance at these schools.
1. UCLA
2. USC (Southern California)
3. UCI
4. UCR
5. UCM
6. CSU Long Beach
(These are in order of preference)
I’m currently a junior who will be applying to a university right after graduation. I’m a Northern California resident (but would like to move southward for personal reasons) and was also born here. My high school is recognized by many universities as quite rigorous and excellent for a public school.
I’m hoping to major in Biology (which I will be taking as an AP next year) and perhaps go into Dentistry or some branch of it.
GPA: 3.5 Unweighted(currently) will probably be around 3.6/3.7 after some grades are adjusted after the year is over (AP affecting final grade, etc.). Around 3.9 Weighted (will also be higher once adjusted)
SAT: 2040 (will be retaking)
SAT II: 4 different subjects (will be taking soon)
ACT: undecided on whether to take it or not
Number of Honors Courses: 4
Number of AP Courses: 3 (Will be taking 4 more next year)
I went from taking almost zero honors classes in the beginning of high school to an increasing amount of honors and AP’s in sophomore and (this) junior year. Therefore, my GPA suffered a little because of these classes. I’m no brilliant genius by nature so tackling some of these courses has proven to be more difficult than what I was used to.
Extras:
-Sport before entering High School
-300+ hours of community service
-Member of service group for 3 years
-Volunteer at the same place for 3 Years
-President of a school club
-Played the piano for well over 10 years
-6 years of outside-of-school (in addition to the same amount in-school) foreign language instruction (In what most consider to be the most difficult East Asian language)
-2 years of instruction in another difficult East Asian language
-1 College course in East Asian History
-Participation in a brief, government-affiliated program to study abroad in Asia
Additional:
-California resident
-Underrepresented minority (no doubt)
-can receive amazing recommendation letters outside from teachers
-many experiences and notable things to write about in my college application essays
-Again, my high school is considered to be quite rigirous in its course work and the teachers are challenging
-I’m hoping to be the first in my family to go to an outstanding school and really pursue a career that will ultimately be financially successful and personally fulfilling.
Unfortunately, my grades are not as magnificent as those of other students who will be applying to these universities; however, I am interested in knowing what kind of chances I have to my top schools. I’ve checked many scatter grams, statistics, etc. and also realize that there is no sure-fire way to predict where exactly I will be accepted, but I hope that someone will be able to give me some indication (mostly to ease my stress). I am also hoping that my extra-curriculars (although not extensive) will give me some sort of boost, especially my volunteering and trip abroad (which opened my eyes to many new things I was previously unaware of). I am very impressed with my achievements in the area of foreign language and am very passionate about my experiences with it. It is really what allowed me to have as many opportunities as I’ve had, and I feel extremely blessed.
As for my interests, I would say I have interests leaning more towards the artsy/creative side, things I’m naturally good at. However, dentistry has always fascinated me (as Biology also has) and I can say that I have no issues looking and probing around anyone’s mouth.
I tried to add as many details as possible; however, it’s impossible to give you my entire personality over the internet. But, I hope that someone will be able to tell me what realistic chances I have at these schools.
Thank you so much!

The email I received:
Thanks for answering my question. I am very much happy to read back from you so soon. Actually, i will be willing to provide these babies/baby to you, which you will be responsible just for the shipping fee.For you to have one puppy ship to your location, will cost you $185,and the shipping fee of 2 will be $360. These babies will be delivered right at your door steps, in an electronic crate, play toys, and work papers. And if the shipping fee is made available now, then you are going to get the babies delivered to you, in about 6-7 hrs time. And as soon as you make the shipping fee available, i will take the puppy/puppies right away to the shipping company for them to be ship to your location.And as soon as i am done at the shipping company, they are going to email you, with the flight details and the bill number ok. We are not selling these babies/baby,but rather looking for a loving home to provide him or her with love and care ok. So,if that is ok by you, we will need your full contact home address, where you will like the puppies/puppy to be delivered.

With all these details, will help me to fill the delivery form at the airport, and also help the shipping agent, who will be the person to deliver the puppies/puppy at your home, tress out your location for the delivery. Make sure that, as soon as you send the money, be at home in other to pick him/her up ok. Let me give you this secret that i use for my pets,You can boost your pet’s health profoundly by making one simple decision. All you have to do is change his diet from commercial-brand fare to something you may never have imagined giving him:real food.The fresh food you buy at the market for yourself is the food you should give your pet, too.”i feed my puppies with Fresh food. Fresh chicken and turkey and beef. Fresh raw vegetables and fruits. Fresh brown rice and oatmeal. Fresh yogurt,eggs, and cottage cheese,they do not shed..So i will be waiting to read back from you soon.. Thanks.
