Back .

Post Reply New Topic

I am back at a computer . I was in the hospital , again , for a week or so regarding my fluid-retention/kidneys , etc. .
If I had just gone in before I had my tablet stolen , of gotten a new one , I could have been connected in there .
I am somewhat in better shape now , I guess , though I don't know how long it will last??
My backpack got destroyed on on of my last days in the shelter before the hospitalization , by someone who not only stole pretty much everything from it when I had it in another room (This is seperate from the tablet being stolen .) , but carved up the things that held up the backpack , so it's not workable as a backpack anymore .
I am , now , back in the shelter again (Yes , where the things were stolen .)
I have had ~ I no longer feel much up to calcuating it , but ~ something like FIVE HUNDRED DOLLARS! of stuff stolen/disappeared/used up in the during the shelter period .
X-Files Geek deleted a line of mine when I spoke about realities of my position .
I guess I'm supposed to just talk about sitting on the couch playing X-Box !
Right now , I don't want to argue about my HS-era records ~ I don't feel I should have to pay for them ! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !
f**k those bastards ! I just want to cry , and scream , at them and tell them how much I hate them .

How much do they cost?

Welcome back, my friend!

Probably like $10-30 at the most, it's annoying as hell that the school doesn't get them on their own or just allow you to take a placement test, it's not like they can deny you entry to a community college. It's just so stupid, they're really particular about how they get it too because they just can't take transcripts by hand because god knows how many people are falsifying transcripts with cumulative high school GPAs below 2.0.

Returning to school has really reinvigorated my hatred of bureaucratic horse****

Good to see ya.

...I really don't have $10-$30 to spare for records , you maybe don't quite understand how on the margins I am !

If I had the money dude, I'd just buy it for you

it shouldn't be this hard

they really dicked me around on transcripts too, it's a whole industry in of itself just like a lot of things in college like textbooks as the most glaring example.

they still haven't accepted mine because I broke the "chain of custody" apparently by having them mailed to my house instead of them even tho it is unopened, I literally had a 1.96 GPA in high school so it is pretty infuriating since it means absolutely nothing to them, they'd probably just throw it out. I was default anyways(something they didn't tell me until the day before school started) so it doesn't matter really but my parents have to pay out of pocket. Don't even get me started about actually trying to pay of these parasitic collection agencies, it's almost impossible. College would of been totally unattainable without my mother, there is no way I could of done or even know how to do all this stuff without her which really puts things in perspective about the supposed "opportunities" presented to this nation's poor, they don't want you take advantage of it so they make it as hard and tedious as possible. Student loans make a HUGE profit for the federal government by the way, it's sickening.

I might consider advancing you the money.

I never knew you had gone. ASS-P, I'll just be getting support every week, but just for 4 measly hours.

...In this sense , what does ' support ' mean , Peter ? Some sort of combination advice and physical help ? Visiting you at your parents flat ,bas I recall that's where you were last living ?

Do you need your records because you are going to college? What do you want to study?
