Ying-Yang

I have been applying for student loans all week. It is a humbling experience. For the first three years of my education I was able to pay for my tuition, book, and other such things with just my own sweat and blood. Now, in my senior year, I am being reduced to taking money from someone at an interest rate that I don't appreciate. It's not that these lenders are loan sharks, but seriously - 8.25%? Where do they get off?

In other news I balanced my feelings of ineptitude by utilizing my hard business executive skills to get my school to stop being such dumb-heads about my scholarships. For some reason they weren't applying them to my tuition and sent me a bill due tomorrow for 15 hundred dollars which was supposed to be covered by my scholarships. I don't keep a 3.82 GPA because it is fun and easy. Long story short - I am not paying that bill. Take that Missouri State.

Anyway. School starts in less than two weeks. Where has this summer gone?

It seems like it took so long to get here and now, in a blink, it's over. Good luck at school and with your upcoming indentured servitude. You should convince all your Springfield improv cronies to return to KC on Sat, Sept. 6 for workshops and the national festival show.

Oooh. That could be super fun. We could car pool and stuff! I'll definitely run it by mi amigos de improv. I've wanted to go to those workshops the past two years but haven't been able to. Depending on my money types I might be able to make it work.

You get a discount since you're a member of CC. They wouldn't get that discount though. Shhhh...
