You would think that determination would be rewarded.
Yes, I'm failing out of LMC...
...What do I do about it? I take a step back and drop in community college and try again.
This is something admirable, my mother tells me, something that she's proud of. That I'm not quitting.
How am I rewarded? With $5,000 of owed money to LMC because they couldn't get their shit together and tell me in a decent enough amount of time to pay it.
What does this mean?
It means that LMC will refuse to send my transcrips to any other school.
What does that mean?
No other school, not even a Community College will let me enroll.
I want to stay in fucking school. I want to make something of myself, and the FUCKING SCHOOL WON'T LET ME!
What do I lose?
A decent graduation time, my insurance.
What do I gain?
$20,000 of loans I have to start paying back in six months.
The kicker...they won't even let me do a payment plan to get rid of the five grand. I have to do it all up front in one big fat check.
When I get the fucking money, I'm going to pull it out in cash and give it to them in ONE DOLLAR BILLS.
Fuck you.
I am so upset, so utterly angry that I am barely controlling the urge to run outside of the library and scream at everything here.
I'm going to Kentucky, and I am NEVER fucking coming back.
