Try “Financial Pain in the Fucking Ass”
Bill is due on October 1st. Here, September 28th, I finally get my aid packaged. It’s been sitting at “Final Processing Stage” since September 10th. Wonderful turnaround for the digital age, eh? I think it would have been faster for me to send a handwritten note to Washington on the Pony Express.
If I lived in California.
So, my bill is $3582.00. Here’s my fall aid breakdown:
Grant: $278.00
Workstudy: $1000.00
Subsidized Loan: $2750.00
Unsubsidized Loan: $1000.00
Total = $5028.00
That’s great, right? Expect I have to get a job to get workstudy. So -$1000.00
That leaves me with $4028.00
Now, I won’t actually get the full loan amount. There’s a 1% difference,s o take out ~$37.50
So, in actuality, I’ll get $3990.50. You take out tuition…. I get a refund of $408.50.
I’m supposed to use this to pay for rent how? I was hoping that I could cut back work to maybe 20 hours a week (Gives me about $140 a week, or $560 a month) but that won’t pay for my $300/month rent, food, gas, etc…
Thanks, Financial Aid. Looks like I won’t be able to focus on my studies because I will be working the entire time.
The funny thing is, this is based on “need”. My EFC shot up from 3764 to 5243 this year, because I worked ~60 hours a week for half of last year. So I could apparently contribute more. Well, DUH. I wasn’t in school. =____=

So, my Currently Reading.
I am (procrastinating) working on my Spanish homework.
So should I put “501 Spanish Verbs” as my Currently Reading?
lol

I’m only like, what, a month late? But yeah, I finally updated to WordPress 3.0. I wonder how many of my extensions are broken now? :(
Anyways, I don’t really have much to talk about here. I could say how much I hate my new prof, or how my new job sucks, or anything… but that requires too much *work*.
So ttyl <3

…on my mom’s side. This is where I plan “Name That Cousin” most often.
First one is the child, + means married
Grandma Mary
.Fran + Duane
…Angel + Randy
……Anna
……Easton
…Jason + Erin
……Kyle
……Cassie
……Leah
.Skip + Mary
.Kenny + Eileen
…Curtis + ??? (he just got married)
…Kristie + Johnathan
.Linda + Gene
…Jessie + Ron
……Aaron
……Macy
……Alex
……Sabrina
…Tony + Mary
…….Cody
…….Kylie
.Walt + Becky
…Walt Jr
…Heather
…Jenny + Mike
……Duane
……Taylor
.Hazel + Mike
…Greg (me)
…Jeff
…. + Kaitlyn (we kinda consider her a sister but she’s Jeff’s girlfriend)
…Alissa
Cassie, Leah, Duane, Taylor, Anna, Sabrina, Kylie, and Easton all kinda blend together. They are all within about ~8 years of each other, and it’s just too hard to tell each of them apart when I see them, at most, 3 times a year. And never together.
So my game is to try and pin names to the kids and see if I’m right. :)
