Man, the Teppy-wisdom continues to hover somewhere near Scrappy level.
Spike's Bitches 39: Cuppa Tea, Cuppa Tea, Almost Got Shagged, Cuppa Tea...
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.
I know school shouldn't be a concern, but it is and for more reasons than I described.
I was supposed to graduate this Spring. I'm not. There's a really good chance that because of that MassRehab won't cover next year's tuition. I haven't even told them I'm not graduating, because I'm scared of the answer. I haven't come this far to not finish, dammit. I could, potentially, get enough loans to cover next year, but then I'm pretty much maxed out on the private loans front. So, if I don't graduate next Spring, I'm not going to.
I have to agree, the Tep wisdom is large. Listen to her, vw. I don't understand why your parents would be pressuring you given the severity of your illness.
Ask yourself honestly, would graduating a semester later really be that bad? If it will perseve your health, physical or otherwise, then I think it's a no-brainer.
ETA: x-post. Money is a concern, I get that. How bad are your loans right now? Usually you can always get federal loans, right?
Anyone here ever had to go back for an ultrasound after a mammogram?
I did. Twas nothing, thankfully.
mono ain't over till it's over
Damn. No truer words, yo. I have a will of iron over certain things. Mono took me to school, kicked my ass, humbled me and basically taught me a lesson. Some things, one simply must bow before. Mono is the man...metaphorically speaking.
I don't understand why your parents would be pressuring you given the severity of your illness.
Because they know the reality of the money situation. They want to see me graduate...not get this far and have to quit.
Usually you can always GED federal loans, right?
Yeah, but that will only cover the tuition, not any living expenses.
YAY! I am done with my author project!!
Well heck. K-Bug has been sick with a cold or something since last Thursday. She has tried to stay away from my mom. With all the immuno-suppresants she is on for her transplant, getting sick isn't cool. Well, I guess mom isn't feeling well today and she is blaming K-Bug. And being grumpy aobut it.
Makes me glad I'm at work away from the home drama, but come on - with a family of 5, someone is bound to get sick at one time or another - it happens. Plus mom was out at a birthday party yesterday. Maybe someone there was ill....
Grumble, grumble, grumble.
vw - What everyone else said. I love you and you need to get well. If you don't you really won't graduate. SMOOCH - but from far away so an not to catch the germies. Hee hee.
I'm just wondering... did you ever wind up using disability services, vw?
I mean, if there were anyone in need of occasional accommodations!! (There always seem to be too many repeated letters in that word.)
Anyway. Best of luck to you, and much rest one way or another.
