A little good news

Guess who received a letter in the mail today confirming that her student loans are finally, finally paid off?

Aww yeah, Christmas sometimes does come early.

Not to be rude, but how long ago were you in college? 'Cause it doesn't bode well for us up-and-comers, that's for sure.

Note to self, prep what you can for scholarships etc NOW*

I don't even know how many I've applied for already. There's no way I can afford to take out loans even for CUNY. If no scholarships then no college :(

go apply to the Worthington Scholarship of social media and iphone problem resolution

Hell no. He's already done a lot for me but I don't want anyone to think the only reason I'm going to college is because I sucked up to some rich white guy.

good for you

That sucks so much. I'm in a slightly better place 'cause Dad's military and there's a bunch of extra scholarships I can apply for, but it's not like I'm a genius or anything. Fingers crossed for you.

Longer than I'd care to admit. Let's just say I'm 34 now. Scholarships definitely help, I had some of those too and still.

I hate you.

[xp-mockingbird.livejournal.com]

Sorry!

[x-daredevil.livejournal.com]

it;s okay, I'm just jealous. I'll be paying mine off until the end of time

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 That is AWESOME.

Thank you! A day many years in the making to be sure.

Woo nice one! So now drinks tonight are all on you?

This is why I'm never going to college. Do beach bums still exist? I can do that, right?

[xp_spectrum]

Only until rising seas due to climate change destroy all the beaches.

On the bright side, you could buy cheap in Iowa now and it'll be beachside property in just a few years.

Oh, congratulations to you for that!
