Oh boy. It's been a very rough start to the semester.
First, I left my keys back home so I had to ask my parents to mail them to me. Only got them back yesterday.
Then I found a very unfortunate letter in my mailbox talking about my financial aid package. I went in to see what it's about and apparently I'm not getting any aid this semester. To make a long story short, even though I will be completing all my credits needed for graduation this semester, since I was behind some last semester (the reason I have to take so many classes this semester) I no longer qualify for it. The thing that grates me is that if I had been told this before, it would have been very easy to just switch out some classes to get the necessary credits I needed. I think I mostly fell behind in that regard because of my Modern Dance class which only counted for 1.
So yea. I need to find a way to get 18k in loans from somewhere else before graduation or I can kiss my degree behind. I'm thankfully calm, and trying to figure out a solution with my brother now but I was freaking the fuck out when I first found out about it. I mean I keep going through these mood swings where I'm ok and suddenly I'll get into a depressive slump but I think that's just how I feel about school in general.
IN GOOD NEWS, HOWEVER. I really like most of my classes so far, and even though it's a lot I'm feeling somewhat confident that I'll be able to manage it all. My only concern is that since I have 0 money--and I quite literally mean that, including parents as well, I don't have my textbooks. I managed to find some of them online, am borrowing the one for my Spanish class and hopefully one of my gov classes if my teacher has an extra but I dunno about the others...right now my biggest worry is for my senior seminar class which I only have 1/5 books. My teacher knows, and unfortunately he doesn't have any extras but he's a pretty understanding guy so hopefully he'll be lenient if I have some bumps there.
We'll see how things go. I'm breaking from my games until I have some loan applications finished which will hopefully be by the end of this week. I also have a meeting with someone in career services this Thursday so hopefully he'll have some tips + will be able to help me get an idea of where I'm headed once I'm done with school.
Class is starting so I have to cut this short. Might add more later.

I had my eyes examined on Wednesday. My left eye has gotten a lot worse, but my right eye only a little bit. I was kind of surprised by that, but I guess it really shouldn't be considering my dad is completely blind in his left eye. I don't know what it's called (I should ask him) but he was born with a disease that left him like that.
I leave the 17th to return to school so hopefully I will get my new glasses before then. Man, returning to school in four days. I am both excited and super nervous because this is my last semester, and also my heaviest. Due to some confusion on my part, a couple classes I thought that could count towards my major really don't so I have 5 requirements for it to complete, and then two gen eds.
Edit: Here is the schedule. I didn't realize a lot of them landed only on one day. Maybe it won't be as bad as I thought.
After that though....done with schooling. I don't think I'll go onto Grad school. Or if I do it won't be for a while. Still considering either Americorps or Peacecorps (in fact I still have the half completed application for the latter) but I'm waiting until I'm actually done to see where I am. Right now the biggest question is where I'll be living: either down in Florida with Jami or with the rents. I talked to them about the possibility on Wednesday very briefly and unsurprisingly neither of them were very thrilled by the idea but really it's my decision.
Their biggest hangup, surprisingly was not that they didn't think I could make it on my own, or that I'd be living with people they didn't know (though that was something mom brought up) but just my not being nearby. Which I can totally understand, and actually do worry about. While we have our tiffs like any family does I really do love my parents, and love being able to spend time with them. I'd also miss my brothers and all my extended family if I were to leave. I'd also miss Rae a lot. And just Lancaster because fuck do I love this city.
I do want to get down there at some point though, even if it isn't immediately after I graduate because I want to be near Derpface and living with Anna and Snow would be awesome too. Not to mention freedom and WARM WEATHER ALL THE TIME. It mostly depends on the financial situation though. Where I can get a job and receive the most profit--and leaving my parents behind when they have so much debt makes me feel guilty too. But hey, if I can get a good job in FL I can probably send them some money too. There are a lot of things to consider and I don't want to make hasty decisions.

So I've got a couple accounts set up and a musebox. Current accounts are:
![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
misspouncellor / arsenicatnip - Nepeta Leijon | Homestuck
thedisciple - The Disciple | Homestuck

winryrockbell - Winry Rockbell | Fullmetal Alchemist
meddles - Kanaya Maryam | Persona 4

shippingwall is my personal musebox. Sometimes I'll toss up open memes tho. In fact I did just yesterday, it's a 7 minutes in heaven so if you want to break out your new DW journals you can find it here. Haha, I think maybe I should have worded it a little differently since I think I gave people the impression that it was an open community by my use of the word 'comm'. I guess the name doesn't help either, since it's gotten some subscribers and people trying to join xD;; Hopefully there is an option to include a message explaining myself when I go to turn their join requests down ;; I don't want to make anyone feel bad.
But yes! If anyone wants to ever musebox anything please let me know! I love to roleplay, even if i can be a heinously slow tagger at times. Right now I'm really only active with Nepeta but if you wanted to do something with any of the others mentioned above I would be very happy to. Next post maybe I'll...talk a little about myself. An intro post or something.

Lets see how long I actually use this thing. I'm not really all that great at babbling on about my personal life. Mostly because then I think I develop the tendency to RAGE and COMPLAIN a lot over superficial things and that's something I try my very best not to do. In part because it's annoying, in part because I think it perpetuates getting worked up over things instead of approaching them calmly.
Uh.
Actually, no I'm probably just really lazy and can't be bothered to write everything down, much less remember to. Anyhoo, as most of you know I am Emely. Feel free to treat this first post as a sort of questions meme if you so desire.
