Schoolins, FAFSA, stuffffff~
Last week to two weeks been totally stress bucket and a half I tell ya. But in the stress it gave me an idea. And went and did a lot of research.
Mum wanted me to get some college in, but one here doesn't really offer much besides basic. But I didn't want to get tied into school here when it could take me 2-4 years to get threw it.
Then I had an idea to go to a community college that had good majors besides the basic classes. And also go somewhere that I've wanted to be for years. Soooo....
Got all my stuff set up, that I can so far, on how much it will cost for schoolin'.
Tallied up everything it would take to get set up and such, applied/accepted to school.
Just waiting on FAFSA to send that report of theirs, to the school so I can see what help I get now.
Considering the form itself was processed last week, and it was an online form. I don't understand why it would take so long to get sent off to a school I listed on it.
But ah well. Once thats threw I can set everything up, register for my first classes, most of which are online.~
Once I've been there a year my tuition will go down A LOT. I'll also be able to scout out cheaper places to stay once I'm there. So 2nd year should be cheaper for me. :>
First year when yer getting settled always seems to be the most expensive... But nice thing about gov loan, you can pay it back after college. So if i get a job and save up I can have a lil' sum to put back down on it right away. : )
All in all I'm really lookin' forward to this. I'll miss my family, mostly my mum, a bit. But I'll get to see em again, just gotta keep tellin myself that.
Told mum she has to come with me for first couple weeks to a month to help me set up stuff and go shopping for supplies. And to see the school, see bf, etc etc. She actually said ok, so that should be fun. She's an awesome person, and really caring. :>
And I'm soooo looking forward to some of the classes.
Also being with bf too, that'll be sooo nice. XD
Peace. ;D
