it comes in doses

so i found out today that i didn't get my scholarship for this year, due to some unfortunate circumstances. now, my first thought after hearing this went something like...fuck motherfucker fuck fucking shit ass hell.

i'm a little more coherent now, a few hours later, and after applying to 16 jobs.

and i could easily sit here and mope about this, get unbelievably depressed and spout off some bullshit about bad karma and all that crap. but really, that's not going to fix a goddamn thing. so what do I do? work my ass off this year, get a goddamn job, function like a proper human being on a normal sleep schedule and not procrastinate. i realize that's a lot to accomplish considering it's me, lazy motherfucker, but new york is not something i want to fuck up. and i won't.

so here's to me being optimistic and managing my time well and getting a job and not being homeless.

optimism, yessir. absofuckinglutely.

In all seriousness, have you thought about Mary Kay? I know it sounds INSANE, but honestly, you don't have to like makeup, women, or give a shit about your skin, and you can make a CRAP LOAD of money - $50 to $100 an hour, so you can work a lot less hours and make more money. =) There are lots of people who have done it to get through college and are now millionaires. Let me know if you want me to e-mail you any of their stories...just as something to think about. =)

xoxoxoxo -- hang in there m'dear! You will come through this with FLYING colors!!

They HAVE to have a good financial aid department there. Look for grants and see if you can get a loan. I just got a Federal Stafford Loan. If you're 2005-2006 FAFSA is finished, it shouldn't take too long. Also check out work-study. The bookstores and restaurants near campus should be hiring as well.

If you need anyone to listen to a vent, Dr. Kira is here.

I'm sorry this happened.

Good luck babe. I know how hard it is to have to worry about if you're going to be able to eat at the end of the month. I know things will work out for you, as they did me. I'll keep you in my thoughts.


Got your email. Will reply soon.

I watched Primal Fear this weekend. I thought of you. Not because of the crazy...but Ed Norton...and yes. IM one of these days.
