Starting to lose it
So here we go, another "I need help" thread. I'll try to make this quick.
I went to college in NY for my first year last fall. I did very poorly because I skipped way too many classes and didn't buy all the necessary books. After that me and the folks decided it'd be best if I went to community college to get some credits and see about transferring to a local state college. Well, I've been doing that since the beginning of September. Unfortunately, I got fired from my job literally 2 weeks before the start of school. I worked at a Navy Exchange on the base near me, which is basically a standard department store like Sears. I used to snag a soda and a bag of chips or something when I was working to have a snack during lunch. Basically I did this every day I was at work, while I worked full time 40 hours a week. Yeah, I know, It was wrong blah blah blah I could have just paid for it. All well in good. Except that they charged me $400 dollars to pay off the goods (when it was closer to half that) then charged me another $200 as a civil recovery suit. So basically all the money I saved up working there for 3 months was gone immediately. I still owe them $100.
So, obviously I didn't have the cash for books for school, putting me at a huge disadvantage. I never told my parents because there's absolutely no good that can come from it. After that shit went even more downhill. I ended up doing my stupid standard thing and skipping classes. This caused me to fail one class outright and to be dropped from another, so I'm in 3 out of 5 that I was taking. So I figured I'd just try to do what I could. But, having no books and no money made it almost impossible. Now I can't even seem to care anymore and I rarely go to class, seeing as it's been practically impossible to pass from the get go. Grades come out in a month and thats when shit is really gonna hit the fan, when my parents find out.
So, I guess my question is; what the FUCK do I do now? The only thing I can think of is start saving up as much money as I can until then, pay off whatever debts remain to me, and then move out. I guess I'll try to pay them back for school since I fucked up, but thats still $1500 dollars. Then I'll have to find a place to live and a car to drive. All in all, I have no idea what to do anymore.
And just in case anyone feels like rubbing it in, yeah, I know I fucked myself mostly, so theres no need to point it out.DaBudhaStank Reviewed by DaBudhaStank on .
