hey- just don't forget you are Made Of Awesome.

[seriously, that's a awful lot of stress to deal with and freaking out a bit is the natural response. Leaving everything that is familiar is HARD regardless of how old you are, dealing with lots of uncertainty and feeling responsible for things you have no control over - it wears you out. {Trust me, I'm an expert in crashing and burning]

Is there anything I can do to help? Is there anything that would make you feel better? This is the sort of time when I find going out and dancing for many hours or going to the gym and hitting things helps. Or you know, reading some trashy books and hiding from the world for a bit.

Ditto to this. The stress, change, uncertainty/unknown that you're dealing with is *very* hard! I think periodic melt-downs are in many respects healthy and good (I had more than a few last year with everything going on), so be gracious and give yourself some time to work through this. If sleep and reading are what you need, maybe you can take a day off from life and pursue those things?

At any rate, I'm praying for you, Jessie. *hugs*

I acutally don't even know the first thing about a student loan - where who how - anything! But it seems like a good idea, and it would cut my stress...where did you get yours? Do you have any info on it? thanks for the advice! ^^

i went to my bank. i checked online for the types of student loan that was available through my bank and i gave you the site for it.. you don't even have to be banking with them for the loan. the main thing is that you need a cosigner with great credit and then you set the amount i asked for the maximum for the just in case anything happens there is extra money and if not then you've saved a little. and i don't have to pay my loan until 6 months after i graduate meaning if i go to grad school then the loan doesn't have to get paid. but see how much tuition, books and housing is going to cost and then set the amount but also check the interest because a $25 grand loan adds up to 50.
