F this.. I'm moving back home.
I really thought that I could handle being financially independent. I registered for classes on my own, got FAFSA set up, found an apartment for cheap and got a job setup. I thought that I could do this and now, I don't think I can. I should have gone to UNCC like my parents told me to and kept my job at Johnny Brusco's. In a 6 hour shift at JB's, I walked out the door with $86 in my pocket. I work a 4 1/2 shift at The Peddler and I wait two weeks for a paycheck getting paid minumum wage. Don't get me wrong, I love my new job and I am really enjoying meeting all of my new coworkers but my ends won't be met. I'm considering getting a second job on top of my school work because I'm freaking out. I have loans so I can go to school and apparently taking a semester off screwed me over. I owe $200 on my loans right now, I barely have that in my bank account and once February 1st comes, so do the bills for my phone, credit card, rent, utilities, and my laptop. Someone please tell me how I can turn the $300 that I have into $1000 in... oh let's say, about two weeks.

Hang in there, it will work out. I'm glad you went back to APP. It is your dream school. No dream is worth losing just to settle. Nobody said everything would be easy, but it's not impossible.
