Financial Frustrations…Again

I got an e-mail from the company that’s providing my student loans and they said they were canceling my loan for Spring quarter.  Well, what the heck?  I called the company and they said that they had to give out the money to my school early because of the awesome economy but since my school is only taking money for the winter quarter, they wouldn’t take the money.  So, the loan was canceled.  I freaked out about this because I only have three more months of school after this quarter before I graduate and if I don’t get the loan money I won’t be able to afford to finish.  Wouldn’t that suck if I attended this school for three years and with only three months left, I’d have to stop going ‘cause I couldn’t afford it?  The only thing my financial advisor said to do was to check out other loan companies.  Oh yeah, ‘cause everyone is so eager to hand out money nowadays.  In fact, I went to the loan company website where I get my money and it’s just a screen saying they aren’t accepting applications at all anymore, from anyone! 

So, I made a lot of calls back and forth between the money lending company and my financial aid advisors and after a few days of serious stress, I think I have it resolved.  I just have to make a few more e-mails and I think I’ll be getting my money after all.  While I’m excited to know that I’ll be covered, I was told this early loan would start accruing interest at an earlier rate than it normally would.  But if I would have had to resort to getting money from another company, that would just be another bill with another rate of interest to pay so either way I’m basically screwed over.  So, I’d rather just get all of my bills from one company and have a bit more interest than having to go through another company and all that.  The whole things just seems so phenomenonally unnecessary.  Just another case of screwing with Brannon.

So while my money woes are taken care of for now, I can’t help but to be better when I realize it’s always something!  It’s always been such a huge process to get money to go to school.  I’ll admit, the first time or so, the fault might be with me because I didn’t know what the heck I was doing but after that, I thought I did everything  right and there was just one problem after another.  Sometimes I feel like my school actively tries to make every move as difficult as possible.  So much for me being more mellow this year.  That whole incident shot that to poop.  But now that things are back on track, hopefully I can regain my composure and get back to getting my mind right.  I hope anyway.  Perhaps I’ll find some success…until something else epically fails and I have to freak out about it for a good long while.
