This shit is killing me...a rant

[Asmodeus]

Ok, here's the skinny, I work basically fulltime, 40 or so hours a week, and I am taking 16 hours at college. Each and every fucking class has an outside fucking project. What the fuck? Do those highly esteemed professors of moral crotchrot think that I am just taking their one class? That I don't have other classes? That I don't work to support my angry ass?

Goddamn people. This shit is killing me. It is after 10 pm and I just now got out of class, I have yet to even drive home, which is over an hour, and I have to be at work in six fucking hours... This is my last holy fucking goddamned semester, thank the fucking lord. I am not sure if I can last this semester, much less more.

I wonder, do you think I would get browny points if I blew up the campus? Or how about just beating the living hell out of everyone there? I like the second better. More of a stress reliever.

And another thing, the job I have now "was", notice the was?, offering me a REAL good deal when I graduated. Well, as it is going now, they up and decided that they didn't want to do that anymore, or make it so damn convoluted as to be effectivly denied the position. Oh, FUCK THEM TOO!!! And I was relying on that goddamned job when I graduate to pay back my fucking student loans and all of the other bills I seem to have miraculously acquired because I am a poor college student. Well, fuck me for not having a trustfund shoved up my ass.

And I always thought that student loans and a Pell Grant to boot were supposed to be enough to cover college tuition, books, and expenses accrued throughout the semester without relying on working. The fucking hell not. I had to dip into my own personal fucking savings to pay for school, even after loans and the grant paid their portion. What the smorgusboarding fuck is up with having to pay over a thousand dollars AFTER loans and grant were used? Has to be an epiphany; a plethora of fuck ups somewhere down the line.

AND... I have to get an apartment, if not in town, closer to town. The drive is wacked. 3 fucking hours a day on the road is plain and simple bullshit. Eegads people. Reality used to be satisfied with knocking me in the head with the errant sledghammer. The silly bitch has apparently gotten tired of that. Now she is sawing at my very life with a very dull saw.

It is all I can do now just to not hurt someone. Is god or whomever in titular control of the omniverse wanting me to just bend over and take up the ass like a fucking weakling? They are trying very hard to do just that. Sorry, whoever you are, to bust your bubble. I am bending over and sticking my ass out so it will be easier for you to kiss.

Comments? Advice? More rants?

When I went to college, I thought I had it dicked with the GI Bill. It payed tuition all right, that was all. The rest, rent, books food were not on the list. So guess what? I climbed in the same boat you are in.

Killing everyone on campus would get you brownie points with me http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/biggrin.gif but that don't mean shit all.

Well it's the reason I am not going to college/University. If I examine what I have at the beginning of the four years and at the end of the four years I have gained a little piece of paper (Which don't mean shit if you're not in demand in your area right at that moment) and debt. (As joy and rapture fills my soul... http://www.thehypertribe.net/ubb/rolleyes.gif )

As for your scholarships and loans covering your tutiaon (sp)...HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. (Sorry)
Where do you think they get the money to gove out these loans? (The interest that accumilates on yours) and scholarships? the fees you pay after they use the aforementioned scholarships which they use as a carrot to lure you in and snare you.

If the ranting helps As. then fire away. I, for one, am glad to see you taking on the challenges of the real world. "That which does not kill us, makes us stronger". Everyday I work with those candy-asses that whine and bitch that life is hard, and that daddy doesn't appreciate how hard it is to do tennis in the morning, lunch with friends and then volunteer at the local dress shop, selecting this years fashion. Why only today I was working with a 23 year old Gucci wannabe male who is complaining to daddy on his cell phone that the 3grand dad gives him each month isn't enough to meet his social obligations. I worked through college and Graduate school and part of my doctoral studies, found all sorts of neat tricks not to fall asleep in class or on the road home each day. You've got my support.

Ok - I am doing the equivalent of full and a half time study this year, on top of working (tutes and the odd lecture, and my own company. I have a five year old son, and this is my sixth year of study. My first year of study I was pregnant, the second I had a baby in a sling around my neck 24/7, and I had a house on the market which I had to keep scrupulously tidy, and I commuted. Oh yeah, and I am a single parent parent so there was no hubby to help out with all of this, as the sill bastard fucked off to amsterdam.
My student loan could subsidise a small country, and that is WITH an education trust paying for 90% of it. I am currently over qualified to do anything practical, and underqualified to do what I want to do. When I do finally get my MBHL, I will be limited to working nationally because of the Law Degree, and my son, and as we all know, NZ salaries are crap, which is why we keep losing our best and brightest.
And you know what? I absolutely LOVE my lifestyle, and thrive on the challenge. I love study, and would keep it up forever if there was any economically viable way to do so which did not involve bludging off the government.

It's all about the attitude, so my advice would be to change yours.

Another gripe of mine, about the skool I attend; I transfered in with 176 hours. As in, enough hours for a Masters. They accepted 40, but only after I threatened them with oblique sarcasm. This is my seventh year of college and I have yet to even get a bachelors. I have more credit hours than my profs, and they have PHDs. Most know this. I still make fun of them. As for the addage, "I have a PHD in the school of hard knocks." I got me one, I wrote the book, got the T-shirt, then got stiffed on some obscure copywrite law.

DAMMIT!! ! It looks like my boat might be heading for the same rough waters. <IMG SRC="http://www.geocities.com/hulk_horgan/Downmog.gif" border=0>

I get out next year and will most likely go back to school to finish my degree. I had hoped to milk the GI bill and ACF for everything I deserve. I've heard that depending on tuition and books that you can actually make more than your tuition. I guess that would also depend what school your attending. How hard was the Money-crunch Wonder?? ?
