    ...to eat right now. I'm broke, to the point I'm hungry. How sad is this??

    I need to baby-sit and tutor. I refuse to ask any money to my parents.

    Got 10 bucks so I can go to the dinner, get some grilled-cheese?


    :(

    I got some Ramen noodles, but no money for rent. No one in this town ever has money for rent.

    Why do you refuse to ask your parents? Aren't you still in school?

    yeah... but my parents are in Europe and they have to make a wire-transfer and they already pay for my car insurance, gas, and pretty much everything else... plus my 2 sisters and themselves. I feel horribly guilty and think about all these people who have parents who won't give them money and have to work. I feel spoiled and I hate it!

    Fuck that. You don't need to worrying about cheese when you're studying. Consider it a loan if you have to. When you make the big bucks in film or publishing or whatever you can pay them back tenfold.

    Laety, do you have a greencard or just a student visa for the US?

    Try to get a job in your uni or something.

    That sucks, I always seem to not have enough money, but I can always afford food/rent/bills/weed and end up with 3-5 dollars at the end of the month.

    Get ramen noodles. With that 10 bucks, you could get at least 20 packs, probably more.

    And i'm sorry I can't help you more, I would if I could. =[

    aww you guys are sweet :)

    I don't have a greencard yet, I need a sponsor... but... what's the point of getting a job on campus, I'm leaving soon... no I'll just have to put fliers at Shoprite or something for baby-sitting and tutoring.

    I can't get another loan... I already have 3 huge ones to pay off. And my parents co-signed. Guilt.

    Someone ows 200 bucks to me, and all sorts of posessions like dvds, cds, books and jewelry... yet I was too nice to tell them not to pay me back, cause I feel sorry for them (they definitely don't give a shit though, but... I'm above the "fuck you" thing) and decided to ignore my requests of my things. I don't know what to do.

    This sucks.

    I do have a PayPal account... wanna donate for my password? lol jk...

    I am very close to your state.

    sometimes I still have to ask my mom for money.

    edit: But I pay for my rent (except for one month and half of another one for the first 8 months), electrcity and heating and food. so that is why I am broke. a poor old colleges student.

    hope it pays off.
