sixteen grand

Well now that tax season and my final semester are both in full swing, a pleasant documentation came in the mail for me today. Just a friendly reminder from Towson that I owe 16-thousand dollars. Sixteen thousand dollars! I can't even begin to think about how I am going to be able to pay that back. I wait tables for a living. I have enough trouble paying my rent and bills. I'm just now paying off my 600 dollar credit card bill that I've had for almost a year. So if it took me a year to pay off 600 dollars it will only take me about 27 years to pay off 16 thousand at the rate I'm going. I guess I better step it up!

  1. oh I so feel you. Let's take that sixteen grand and add on grad school equalling me forever being in debt with Towson. I look forward to reading your blog because I don't think there is going to be one post I cannot relate to.

  2. College debt is a big problem. Tuition costs keep rising, but the value of the education is decreasing. Graduating college doesn't translate into a job anymore.
