Stating what you want really does work...I got a phone call yesterday to notify my that I won a $1K scholarship. A scholarship I took 3 minutes to apply for, faxing in the documents minutes before midnight of the due date. I didn't even send in all the required forms. I bet no one else applied, and that's why I got it. The point is, you ALWAYS get what you want, you just gotta know what you really want first. :)

It would be even better if I were more specific in my needs, ie: I need at least 15,000 dollars for next year's tuition, and to earn 30* an hour upon graduation so I can comfortably weezle out of my school debt. Universe, get to work!


*I actually upped up my asking price because I realized how feasible it is in my field; a company I'm interviewing at pays that amount to graduate interns with some experience; which is something I can boast within a year no doubt sun!
