Weird.. I have good news!
hehe.

After months of chasing phone calls etc., I had a face-to-face with a guy yesterday that offered me an interview for a "paid internship."

Backstory...
Before collection agencies held my transcripts hostage due to defaultedness (if that is even a word lol), I was set to continue my schooling and receive a Master's in Library Science. I had basically given up hope since I could see no way for me to pay the loan out of default.

The internship is at a freaking LIBRARY!! It will only be for 4 months if I do get it, but I hope to pay on loan for the 4 months and free my transcripts. I'm soooo pumped!

Many things need to go perfectly for all this to come true. I do have a new spark of hope though.

Wish me luck :)

:hi:

10. Rehab that default, Inchworm!!!!
And yes, defaultedness is indeed a word.

I also would have accepted defaultification, defaulticity, and under certain circumstances, defaultritude.

12. Heh, I've been "surviving" on about $700/mo
For a few years. That defaulted loan is my bane.

14. I had one of those.
Didn't pay anything on it for years. Finally got a real job with a real paycheck and they caught me within months. I paid through the nose every month for a year and I was rehabbed. Been paying on it for about 5 years now, and I got about 4 more left.

Hang in there.
