The thing that's currently bothering me: motivation problems.

That's the one thing I lack. I'm sure I can change that by simply doing what I want/should do, but I find myself on the Wii, surfing the web... well mostly coming here and posting on the boards and going on Facebook. I haven't sketched anything in a while now. Maybe I should limit my time on the boards/wi-fi Brawls and do something more productive. I love Brawl, and love playing online with the cool people I've played thus far, and win or lose, I do learn and grow as a smasher. But in the process, it has made me pretty lazy as of late. You know what? I think I will go out. Wait, nevermind: New England weather says "no". =__=

Still, I'm gonna go do something productive. Tomorrow's another day for going out. Wait! Saw 3-D is tomorrow! That gives me something to do that day! :D
Your problem explains mine almost exactly man. I quoted on my facebook page: "Important things are becoming less important to me". And it's true. I also draw, but I write as well. But as of late, I cant seem to summon up the energy to do a damm thing besides brawl and get on the computer. My grades in college are dropping and everything. Depression man... it deprives you

The only Christmas song you ever need is "Fairytale in New York"

On another note, sometimes I think I have depression too.

Just because I am mostly unmotivated to do anything and I sleep a lot.

I'll try the bank anywhere else? Remember I'm still a college student with a part time job. Where can I get a student loan for 15,000$? or something close to figure.

Ask your parents about it. My freiends gf is trying to do that right now. Her parents might have to take it out though :s Anyways talk to the bank and your parents.

Well, the bank is your best option. Most have some sort of student loan offered. Make an appointment with someone, see how much money you can get, etc. You'll also need someone (a parent, most likely) to co-sign for you.

Also, depending on where you live, your country's government might offer student loans as well.

This is an incredibly trivial thing to bother me but I hate when it says this thread has one more page than it does. Like right now I'm on page 328 but it says there's a page 329. When i click 329 it takes me to the top of 328. I'm not sure if this happens to anyone else but it only happens on this thread. Silly complaint, I know.

I'm gonna talk to my financial aid department(heading over there right now) to see what would be the best place to try and take out a parent plus loan to cover the rest of my tuition this semester.

Even though I make more than 4000$ a year I can't take out a student loan for 4000$? The system is stupid.

Edit: Hey everyone I am trying to apply for the Federal Perkins loan. It's given out by Fasfa and it's something that every student loan website I visit tells me to fill out. The problem is I can't find the actually application page anywhere, can anyone please help me out? I'd really appreciate it.

Turns out that I can't get approved for loans without a cosigner. I wish I had kept better relationship with some of my family members now =(

Don't double post.

Wait until you try to buy a house. Individually, my girlfriend and I made enough to cover a year's worth of mortgage + two extra months of payments (to pay it off faster). This was when we had on campus jobs. We couldn't get a mortgage because we were considered contractors and they couldn't verify employment. It was a headache.

Someone IRL knows my smashtag so now I can't post personal stuff here, so now I can't post personal stuff anywhere, and there's something I really need to tell someone with compassion and understanding.

A while indeed.
I paid $12 and got premium for a whole whopping two hours.

And yes, I've already made a forum support post about it, so you don't have to tell me.


Edit: oh

No, you should have made two name changes within those two hours. : ] (because then you'd be able to change quickly once you renewed)

Jk of course. :3

I think you should make a Forum Support post about this instead of complaining in the Pool Room! You should actually ATTEMPT to fix your problems first, instead of complaining about it immedeately.

I hate Americans.

Really disappointed with myself lately. Spending too much time helping others instead of helping myself. In my defense though I didn't realize helping people would have taken so long, from now on I'm going to assume helping people will take forever and therefore I will simply not help them unless I have an abundance of time.

This is a weird one...

When I was younger, around 5 or so, I loved mayonase. I would always put it on my sandwhiches, and eat with no problem.

Nowadays, if I try to eat mayo i'll most likely puke it right back up...did I just randomly go anti mayo or something?

And...I still can't get the smash events frequently :( growing up is so lame right now.

Not too long ago, I saw a kid almost kill himself by stabbing a hole in his wrist with scissors. It was a painful sight. I think he's stable now, but it was somewhat traumatic to see him passed out in shock on the floor, barely alive and seeing blood everywhere. Makes you think and wonder...

Every 7 years or so, your whole body "renews" and sometimes you like things didn't like before, or you don't like things you did like, after that whole changes.

Someone stole $350 from me today. It seems like every time I have a problem God gives me a new problem to make the old one seem trivial. I'm going to be shocked if I still have use of all my limbs by this time next year.

It's like I'm experiencing Maslow's hierarchy in reverse. First all my mental strength went kaput. Then my body fell apart. Now I'm unable to acquire basic material possessions.

Wow dude that really sucks. How did they get ahold of your money?

I kinda know how you feel with the body falling apart thing. Physical therapy has been helping but my body still gets itself in a mess sometimes. Lately its been my sacrum rotating out of place which makes my *** hurt like hell, my right leg gives out, and my hip pops out of place which makes one of my legs a lot longer than the other. Its like wtf?? Then my ribs rotate downward and get stuck so I can't expand my lungs. I need to be oiled or something.

Thankfully the physical issues are my only real problem right now. Hope things start looking up for you, eventually once you've been through enough, most issues will seem trivial to you.

Thats my whine for the day.

Huh. Hopefully, my allergies to pet dander will disappear then, since I love cats and want one for a pet. That said, I used to love mayonaise myself when I was a kid, but now I really don't like it.

That's rough, buddy. I know what it's like to have things stolen from you. Worse still is when you know who did it but have nothing to prove it. Personally, it drives me absolutely insane. I tell you, Murphy's Law is a b*tch and a half! >__<
