If you want the information, use your grown up fingers , dial, Call and ask her "hey Larla, you know I'm considering doing my Masters. How did you and your boys find your experience at Duluth Uni?"
I can't believe you're a grown woman stressing over a text.
It's not just the text. It's that this woman is a user. And she only replies if there is something in it for her. And Larla is a f*'d up name. Lol.

That's you though. This friend I'm referring to will only communicate with you by text. It's her way or the highway.

When I get texts at work (I teach), when I am cooking dinner, when I am driving, or when I am otherwise just in the middle of something I often read/see it, don't reply because I can't or because it's not safe (i.e. driving) then I forget about it.
Get over it and pick up the phone or send an email so your friend can respond on her own time. If you want her to do you a favor and give input, make it convenient for her.
