College in a Month

So beginning of senior year, I was so excited to go to college...Now I'm excited, but I just recieved this $5,900 bill in the mail. People forget to tell you when you go to college not only do have to prepare mentally, but you have to be prepared, physically (health forms), mentally (stress over the physical), and financially (hence the bill). FAFSA wasn't enough you have to back up any claim you make with tax returns and if you have a parent like mine, filling his taxes weren't a priority so bye bye financial aid, hello big bottom loan with like a 19% interest rate that is subject to change because your once responsible co-signer bails. But even after all this you are excited as you hope you can defy the workings of Murphy's Law and find a silver lining to the dark cloud. You are so wrong as you realize that if you have to take out a loan of this magnitude for the next 8 semesters you will successfully be in debt until 2025 and you might be able to start paying it off. The your college of choice has the audacity to as you for more non-existent money and tell you that they are messing your tetanus shot. On top of all this whoop la YOU ARE STILL EXCITED! SO WHAT YOU WILL HAVE TO FILE BANKRUPTCY BEFORE YOU FULLY UNDERSTAND WHAT IT MEANS COLLEGE WILL BE A BLAST:)

If you could redo the situation you would definitely

*Convince your Dad that filing his taxes ARE IMPORTANT
*Look up more scholarships
*Pick a less expensive college
*Wish you had worked harder in high school for an academic break.

BUT COLLEGE BETTER BE WORTH IT!

This Is It

I forgot I even had a blog. I started this blog at a time when I was very emotional and dealing with a whole bunch of crap. Yep I said the C word. I had drama at home, a boy who went from loving me to playing me, and my interest in school was right below non existent. I now know I have grown, considerably. None of that stuff matters. At the age I am now, I don't care who played me sophomore year and what punishment I got for staying out too late. It no longer matters. I miss my blog though :)
