Financial Aid

Posted by JBSil on 30th January 2007

Just found out that my Financial Aid came through for this coming quarter. Good news is I’ll be able to take classes and not take money out of the savings account my parents gave me (that I haven’t touched in years), or worse, borrow money from my parents directly. Bad news is that I didn’t qualify based on need (go figure), so I got an unsubsidized loan, as opposed to a subsidized one. Which means, while it is a student loan, it will accrue interest from the moment I borrow the money until the moment it’s paid off in full. Hooray for interest!

But, the good news to follow that is that although I was told that the Education Assistance program had ended when my parent company was bought out by my parent-parent company, I was apparently misinformed. The program works slightly differently now, but as long as I can prove that the degree that I’m working towards is related to my job, or a future job in the company, and that the classes I’m taking are required for that degree, I’m eligible for $5000 per calendar year from my job for tuition. Which is awesome because it means I’ll basically take out the loan for this quarter only (with interest) and completely pay it off this summer, and only accrue a couple month’s worth of interest. And hopefully next year’s loan will be subsidized (since I filed without my parents’ $$$).

Sooooooooo, I’m going back to school. Starting May 12th. Registration is tomorrow morning, 6 am. Here’s hoping I get the classes that fit into my schedule!

You’re red hot passion makes anyone you date feel extremely wanted
Loyalty, to the point of doing anything to protect your lover
You are mysterious and charismatic – and you easily draw people in

Your negative traits:

You tend to be paranoid and think that the worst is going on with your lover
You turn cold and mean at the first sign of conflict in relationship
You sometimes become obsessed with dates – so much so that you develop jealousy early on

Your ideal partner:

Someone who will take the time to win you over. Not an easy task!
Is able to keep up with your carnal appetite… lots of stamina needed.
Reassures you of their love and loyalty on a daily basis.

Your dating style:

Intense. You prefer to stay in with take out and conversation – so that no one else is distracting you and your date.

Your seduction style:

Hot. New partners have trouble believing that your libido is for real.
You have incredible sexual intuition – you always know what your lover craves
A bit bossy. You know what you want, and you certainly aren’t afraid to ask for it.

Tips for the future:

Don’t be so secretive with your love – they want you the way you are
Let go of your jealousy. Your partner has chosen *you*
Spend more time alone, doing things you love. It will help you be less obsessive.
