My aunt is a rich but very very humble woman, she doesn’t like receiving expensive gifts or even gifts at all, doesn’t like perfume. She doesn’t drink. She is picky about clothes and bags and shoes. She is almost 40. We are super close, like we do everything together. She is my mom’s brother’s wife. My uncle told us all to think about something to do like plan something for her birthday but we are clueless about it, we have never really planned anything for her birthday. Idk if this is the right group but is there anything older people would love to do? She is into meditation and stuff but she would rather spend the whole day with us than go to a spa or meditation camp because she does that quite often.

Hi everyone, I am a 5-foot, 113/114 lbs, 20-year-old girl. I go to the gym every other day, usually 3 or 4 times a week. I have a routine that focuses on my lower body and upper body. I don’t have anything else that keeps me active throughout the day besides the gym. I don’t know what to eat, as I don’t eat a lot, so I’m unsure what my meals should be. I’ve been below 100 lbs my whole life and only started gaining weight around last year. Can anyone share their meal plan with me to loose weight ? It's easier for me to follow the same plan. I’ve tried making my own, but I end up not sticking to it because it's not strict enough and i don’t take it seriously because i made it. Does anyone have a week's worth of a meal plan I can commit to? It would be helpful if u can share something that has worked for you. I don’t want to use AI.

Can somebody explain how fafsa and pell grant works?
For the last two semesters fall 2025 and spring 2025, i paid my fees out of pocket and the school disbursed the financial aid into my bank. I never got any college promise grant for last 2 semesters.

Suddenly this year(for fall 2026 and spring 2026)i got CA college promise grant that waives the enrollment fees.

For this year(2026-2027) i got my financial aid letter from the school and i had CA College grant too and it says non disbursing. Its supposed to waive my fees but somehow its not doing that.

And today i got another financial aid award letter but its actually for 2025-2026. I already got my pell grant refund sent to me so thats not an issue. But i got another pell grant 2 for summer thats supposed to disburse in JUNE 11. But I already paid the summer fees.
my issue is suddenly I have another CA college waiver for $644 for FALL 2025 and Spring 2026, that was never there during both of my semesters which led to me being dropped from classes and pay out of pocket to rejoin .

And i haven’t paid the fall 2026 tuition because i am waiting for the waiver to hit my student account. And since i have summer aid now, will the summer aid pay my fall 2026 fees or get refunded into my account?

What am i supposed to do? Who should i talk to? Is there someone who can explain to me?
I called the office, sat on hold for an hour.

sorry for this, the financial aid office not picking up my call is kinda making me messed up.

Hi i have a waiver for my enrollment fees and it says accepted on my eservices but somehow tuition is still due. Since its a waiver it doesnt get refunded into my bank, how long will it take for my fall fees to get waived?? I dont want to get dropped but i dont want to pay it right now if its getting waived. What should i do? and i am taking 14 units
i did call and email the financial aid department. No answer.
