Discussing what we did on Thursday was a sad reminder of how screwed I am financially. The short clip professor Stone shared with us especially hit home. Coming from a family who lived in poverty for a very long time and now me, living off of loan money and my mediocre pay check that I receive bi weekly... It is a very real, scary thing. We are told to go to school so we can get a job...well folks, I graduate in three months and have done what I was "supposed to do" and will be up to my ears in debt because of it. As much as I would love to believe we can one day change this messed up system, I do not foresee that happening for a very long time. Also, did any of my fellow classmates who are affiliated with the military in some way stomachs fall to their feet when professor Stone mentioned the hazzle wood act bs? Mine sure did.
I apologize for the very informal blog this week...but I am honestly just annoyed and needed to vent a bit. Although I am sure yall are feeling the same.
Cheers to being broke!
