Fuck college!!!
10 years ago
I was suppose to start back to school tomorrow. I thought everything was taken care of. I went to the freshman convocation and was so excited to start classes. Then I wen tot get my books.
I had reserved my books in advanced, but when I got there, my books were not set aside. I was OK with that, I just got the books off the shelf and went to check out. Then at the register, the clerk tells me I have no money there from my student loans, still fine, maybe a computer error, it happens. Then I went to the Financial Aid office.
I wait in line, then see someone. I ask why there is no money for my books. She then tells me I owe the school $1200 dollars and there is no money for books. I withdrew from school then and there. I am so pissed off I want to take the free shirt they gave me, soak in in gasoline and burn it in the middle of their traffic circle!
Needless to say, I am just a tad bit pissed off.

Why did you not apply for scholarships!? Why didn't you prepare for the future!?

OP
I did, but being 40 kinda hurts your chances at scolarships, and I should have had all the money I needed. When I registered I was shown a bill of just under $5000, then FA tells me I owe over $8000.
