The Beginning...

Okay, I give in.  I've created a blog.  Not that anyone was honestly pushing me to make one.  I figure it's about time I created a new one.  After all, it's the main reason I started a MySpace in high school.  Either way, here I am...blogging.


I just wonder what the deal is with Universities cutting funding for students.  I realize they have had million dollar cuts in their own funding, but really?  Why was all of my work study money taken away for my final year of college?  I'm so frustrated with this, which totally sucks because I finally am starting the year with a good job.  Problem with them cutting my work study, my current job depends on those funds in order to keep me on staff.  No matter who I email or talk to, no one seems to be able to help me out.  They have me on a wait list for funding, which may or may not work out.   Everything depends on how many other people decide to accept their work study funding.  I just don't know what is going to happen if I don't end up getting some funding.  Will I still have my job?  Should I start applying for other jobs again?  Can I survive Fall Semester without a job if I don't end up getting the funding?  There are so many questions and I just don't know what is going to happen.  What's worse is that I could have been done with school this past May if I had just filled my schedule a little more the last 2 years.  I spent so much time thinking I was going to be an Interior Designer, and when that finally went to hell I settled for a major is something similar (and in my opinion better) to Interior Design.  Hopefully everything will work out and I'll get my work study funding.  So for those who have a heart at the University of Minnesota...there will be a few of you that will not take your work study financial aid.
