This isn't so much a rant as it is a list of things that are so completely wrong with my life at the moment.

1. I have a 3,330 outstanding tuition bill which needs to be paid by August 17 so that I can sucessfully send Albany Law School my final transcript and my medical records. It does not look as if this bill will be paid. Therefore I am not going. (I take handouts)

2. My roommate decided that she does not want to spend the next three years in Albany and is moving to Florida next June- leaving me without a roommate and without furniture (except for my bed)

3. My love life sucks- and thats all I have to say about that

4. Work is starting to get on my nerves- too much shit not enough time- why am I still talking?

5. My love life SUCKS!

Anyway, I just needed to write that out and make myself feel better. Thanks for reading.

Now for CK's suggestion- I already have a loan out for 10,000 to cover the additional tuition which didnt get covered by Stafford Loans. This 3,330 dollars I didn't even know about until I went home a few weeks ago and found out the damn thing was in collections at the Attorney Generals office. The thing the pisses me off the most is the fact that my mother had told me that she was going to pay it (this was back in October when the damn thing was due) and then never did. So now I have to find a way to come up with the damn money and I dont know if I can get another loan. In addition I dont really want to have to get another one for a bill that should have been paid.

Oh well what are ya gonna do right?

you should stop fucking around and bitching about you mother not paying and apply for a loan and get it taken care of ASAP before you get fucked and kicked out of school. then you can bitch to your mom and get her to pay you back.

Chrissy,

Sorry to hear about all that crap, hun, I know how you feel. Maybe we should get together and start some kind of club for losers....

1. I'm still paying the Univ. of Pgh. for Spring Term 2000. (Long story why, I assure you. Involves stupid parents, and the gov. losing my FAFSA) For a lot of complicated reasons, getting another loan was not an option, so b/c of this I have taken the past year off of school, and can't go back there or anywhere else until it's paid off (which I was actually making good progress on, until I got sick). And oh yeah, since I've been out of school so long, I've also had to start paying back my Perkins and Stafford loans.

2. I live w/ two other girls. One of them didn't send in our lease renewals in FEBRUARY b/c "we weren't getting along at the time" and she wanted to "she how things worked out," and then I was in the hospital. And she never told us this until the weekend after 4th of July. Even though we still have the option to renew our lease (which runs out at the end of this month, aka NEXT WEEK), the other girl said fuck it and told us about 2 weeks ago that she was going to move out, so if we want to renew we have to find someone to replace her. My parents are flying into town this weekend (and on a plane, not a broom!). If we haven't found a new roommate by then, I have to move out. (We had one potential new roommate, things fell through with her yesterday. We have one more possibility, she's supposed to let us know this evening if she'll take the vacancy.) But where will I go if I have to move, you ask? Well, I think I saw a nice cardboard box on the sidewalk the other day.... (My parents live in Louisiana, so moving in with them is NOT an option.) So if it's possible for you to at least see a small ray of sunshine, Chrissy, at least you still have your roomie until June.

3. I won't even start in on the conundrum of a clusterfuck that is my love life. It's just...a mess.

4. For some reason I've been having trouble getting my disability checks the way I'm supposed to. They stopped coming for awhile, and then started up again, but I still haven't received the check for the interim 3 weeks, which was supposedly written July 12. I mean jeez, they're paying me peanuts to being with, and they can't even get that right? Throw me a frickin' bone, here!

And I just found out that since I had been at my job for less that 1 year, whenever I was disabled I was terminated from the payroll, and I have to just hope that they have an opening available for me when I'm able to return to work.

5. In the midst of all this crap, I devote 8 hours of my day, 3 days a week to my physical therapy (2 hr trip there by bus, 4 hours at the rehab center, then 2 hr trip back by bus). That leaves me the other 2 days of the week to run around in circles and play phone tag over my medical bills and other business-type bullshit.

Oh, and I just lost a filling the other day, so now I have to find out if my medical assistance includes dental coverage. (Somehow, I highly doubt it.) And it's time for a trip to the girlie doctor too....

Damn, I wish I could be 4 again. Life was so much simpler then. But you're right, it did make me feel at least a little better to get all of that out. If you ever want to talk, you know where to find me. Thanks to everyone who took the time to read my frustrated babbling.

Well the only good thing about the loan shit is that I got a forbearance on mine from Undergrad- you realize you can contact your lender for deferments and forebearances and mostly they give them to you. I would suggest checking that out before you start paying those bastards one penny more.

umm, ya. get it paid then bitch.
luckily i don't have to worry about that shit. i'm not going to college. (i guess you can call that lucky?)
Posted by Deathsmurf on Jul. 24 2001,05:37
Im currently studying at a university in Denmark. The next semester is my 5th (3rd year). Ive come to the conclusion, that having a good time/life is much more important than have a not having a loan.
At a point my life sucked so much (not maily because of lack of money), that I decided to take a loan, and not think of it until I was finish with my studies. I will owe approx 110,000 dkr,- (~13500$) when im finish. That time, that sorrow and concerns.
My advice is to take the load if you want that education, and not think of it.

i think i could use that too. but i dun see any robots beating each other up.
i don't have much to pay to school, aside from non-covered payment (񘈨) which I have at the moment and I have for next semester too. good thing i'm not living on campus. feh.

my problem: i don't know what i want to do anymore! i thought i wanted comp sci, but now i'm not sure. i do want to learn that, but i want to do theology too. and communications. and a bunch of other little things.

Hey a.h. I was just in Tucson like two weeks ago. My sister lives in Sorry..I mean Sierra Vista. It rained a lot when I was out there but not for long periods of time thankfully.

I am in the process of getting all this crap straightened out. My mom is coming up to Albany this weekend for her birthday- perhaps its not such a good time to mention all of this shit but it will be mentioned nonetheless.

I'll keep everyone posted

The only problem with my life right now is that I feel guilty for getting away with having so few hardships. Granted, I worked my ass off to get to this point, but I certainly had the wind at my back the whole while.

I feel ya. When it rains, it pours.


Posted by darksol on Jul. 29 2001,04:11
do you really think that your problems are so bad? are they really crushing? why dont you go find someone that has real problems and take lessons. then try to stop complaining so much. everyone has problems, i dont know many people that dont have fucked up love lives, since that does seem to be the most important. the more you complain the more in a rut you dig yourself until it becomes your home and you're scared to go out. seriously, your problems are small and measly. if your love life is in shambles its only yourself that you can blame. shit....what the fuck.....
Posted by Chrissy on Jul. 29 2001,14:45
First to WG-

Hey cool- where are you guys going to be? Altamont? You should stop by for a visit- with any luck that will be the weekend before I start law school. My friend from CA is going to be staying with me but you guys are welcome to come hang out if you want.

Second to Darksol-

um FUCK YOU! I said it wasnt a rant but things that I felt were so completely wrong with my life. I realize that I have it pretty good for someone my age. I make decent money, I live on my own, I have my own car etc and I am more than likely going to attain my dream of going to law school--- I admit that perhaps posting on this website (where flaming people is a rite of passage)was a bad idea but I have been around for a while and I knew the damn risks- so please get off my damn back.

Thank you

Posted by Chrissy on Jul. 30 2001,12:07
WG- Yeah normally there is a fair in the fall at the grounds. Well if you are free one of those nights email me (check my profile) and we can meet up or something- I mean no pressure obviously- but if you want someone to show you around this really exciting shi..I mean town I can. I dont know if you are into dance clubs or bars or whatever but--- well I leave it to you and the misses.
