Ughhhhh what a bummer

I just found out that one of my best friend's dad lost his job and now he can't help her with college anymore..so now it's up in the air whether she's coming back now. :( And school starts in 2 weeks.

She's going to try to travel down here to talk to financial aid in person, I hope they can help her, I am going to be so bummed if she can't come back. :cry: She was going to be my roommate and we were going to have so much fun.

1. I hope my kids get great scholarships and/or loans

they both are academically gifted, so maybe they will

one starts next year and the other not for another 7 years.

We had a plan in place, but I've been chronically underemployed now for most of the past five years and unable to continue with it.

I feel enormously guilty.

2. Hopefully they will

alot of schools offer good scholarships; I'm pretty well taken care of at my school but housing is still expensive and none of them cover that.
