I got it!

[gladyskristen]

As some of you know, I''ve been pulling out my hair over waiting for the results of my scholarship interview. Today is my luckiest Friday the 13th ever, cos I GOT MY SCHOLARSHIP!!! Now I can finally get WF ear studs! Decided to get the 4-prong style instead of the bezel set so it''s more affordable. I''ll b going for the 0.25 ctw version. I know it''s small, but cool for a beginner!

How much is the difference actually? I only ask because the bezel gives such a "big" look that you might be happy with the size of diamonds for LONGER (which is a kind of long term savings plan -- HA!

)

Yay, congrats on the scholarship!!

0.25''s are a nice size, from one petite student to another!

Well... I'll just say that the cost of the 0.25ctw 4-prong earrings can't even buy me the bezel setting alone. Lol. I'm referring to the prices on WF, cos I wanna use their ideal cut melees. I'm not too worried abt the size of the 0.25 ctw earrings, cos I've got pretty small ears. The biggest fakie earrings I've ever wore were 4mm "diamond" studs.

Congratulations! I''m sure you are absolutely ecstatic! Very exciting.

 

[musey]

Congratulations on both counts!!! I think .25ctw is a very nice size actually, I sort of prefer the smaller size studs myself

can''t wait to see ear shots!!!

 

[snlee]

Congratulations on both! That''s awesome you got the scholarship! I think that''s a nice size to start out with. My first pair was .25ctw. I loved them.

Hurray! Congratulations.

Nope, he won''t be coming with me. I''ll only be gone for 10 months (it''s a conversion programme for diploma --> bachelor), and we''ve been apart before (he had 4 months exchange in Canada). He''ll probably visit me halfway through the 10 months as his graduation trip though! I''m leaving in February, he''s graduating in June.
