I OWE LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY!!!

College bill showed up in the mail today. On the sheet it said that I owe 7000 dollars, but I can probably have it reduced to like 6000 if we can make them realize that I am still on my dads health insurance and dont need their expensive one. Still, 6000 is a lot of money and I decided to do what I can. I had been planning on getting a cell phone this year and as such have 500 stashed in the bank. This, plus what I can make over the summer makes it so that I can chip in about 1200 and still buy my own school supplies (hopefully) as I planned.

This figure made me realize that I am going to have precious little money to do anything once I get back to school, but if that is the cost, then I am willing to pay it. Furthermore, I am trying to pick up some extra money by finding a second job that will let me work starting around 11 pm until whenever I get done. If this happens, I may even be able to chip in another 500, bringing my share to 1700, but still leaving me little to do anything with at school. Hopefully this pans out, and if it doesnt, then I will be taking out more loans, becuase I AM going back to Brandeis.

My mom doesnt like the school very much. Today she yelled at me to inform me that if all I want to do is teach, then I dont need to go to Brandeis (she doesnt realize that I talked about teaching as an option, not my ultimate goal in life). I know that she doesnt like the school, but she seems to think less of me for going to it. This is entirely unfair, but from my point of view she seems incredibly happy that my brother Tom is going to kalamazoo in her home state of Michigan. It is a cheaper school, but I dont think that that is all because it seems like she just likes kalamazoo better than Brandeis and hence seems to think more highly of him than she does of me. Oh well. I am going to Brandeis.

Noodle out.
