College Tuition Fees Hiking, Hell to pay for classes

I just finished registering for Fall classes at my college.  I haven't gone back to regular schooling in years, and it is going take a lot of work to get my mojo back.  Back when I first started going to college in 2004 units were like $14 a unit, it has gone up quite a bit since them.  Last I checked it was $17 /unit, and today it has gone up to $24 /unit! That is BANK! I just cracked my bank account paying for classes it was $480 all together, not to mention books and material fees. (geez! Getting educated put us in debt!) This is a community college and not one of those fancy pantsy Universities ( I might as well beg for money to pay for school fees!) This school quarter is going to cost me $1200 not including gas prices which will be about $800 (thats $200 a month) ...calculating every cent now! Geez! Meaning of starving student defined! 


Average Spending:

Rent = $2000 /month
Garbage = $20 / 2 months
Water = $60 / 2 months
Electricity = $80 / month
Internet = $21 /month
Wireless Phone = $ 60 /month
Gas = $200 /month
Groceries $200 /month
Dependents = 2
School= $2000 /quarter
Insurance = $200
Cable = 20 /month

thats about $3000 a month thats more than half my income! T_T 
My piggie bank is crying a river !!

COLLEGE IS TOO EXPENSIVE! I SHOULD DROP OUT AND BEG AT THE CORNER (THOSE GUYS MAKE MORE MONEY THAN YOU THINK!)

I just applied for FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid)
Hopefully they will give me something I can work with because I am sick of eating this ramen and cereal ( MILK ain't cheap! When you got 2 full grown men drinking it all)

It is depressing thinking about how much more it is going to cost when I work on my Masters Degree -_-



For all you high schoolers looking forward to college....GO to COMMUNITY colleges and transfer up! Save yourself some money and time! If you don't make grades in a University you might as well drop out.  But you have a better chance of getting help and getting by classes at a community college. Or if you want the faster route there are always vocational schools (like Heald College, University of Pheonix, Bryman College, Cosmetology school)

In 20 years, the amount of rocket scientists will be close to zero, because all the smart people can't get a degree! Obama, get your ass cracking on doing something to help the youth! This is some BS! You got the rich being more rich, and the poor not even given a small chance! We should bring Bill Clinton back, fuck that 2 term rule, he seems more reasonable than anything the senate is throwing out there. Seth Macfarlane has a better chance running the country successfully than those idiots! 

At this point I have no choice but to be SUPERSTAR in every class. Or be a begger, stripper, protitute, line cook, Mcdonalds part time employee (even that job is hard to come by now days!) What has this world come to!? ( I mean what has this COUNTRY come to!?!?!!?!?!?!)



At this point I am considering entering this Univeristy, at least I know I will have a job after.

^^ I KID, I KID! 

For all you in the same boat, GOOD LUCK climbing the treacherous mountain to success! It will either pay off, or you will end up PAYING for it.
