I did 5 years of school on my own while working a full time job bartending. You can apply for financial aid and student loans in your name and not involve your parents. You also mentioned that your grades are pretty good - your school should have a directory of scholarships that are awarded annually. Go to the financial aid office, or the financial aid page on your school's website and check out what is available for you to apply for. I would suggest immediately looking for work in Chicago and saving every penny that you can so that you have money for room and board, etc. for the upcoming school year. And keep your job through the school year. Your grades may reflect this a bit at first, but once you get used to juggling work and school things will work themselves out.<br /><br />I really don't have a #2. Hope this helped, though. <br /><br />Also, I understand that this may sound like a lot to take in during one sitting, but look at it as a jump start on the real world.sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14255392086264338004noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169849407979145898.post-84020968698521154762009-05-27T07:11:08.780-07:002009-05-27T07:11:08.780-07:00haha, i took e at a nofx show once, and while i'm ...haha, i took e at a nofx show once, and while i'm pretty sure it was fun, i know for a fact that the next day was...not my best.<br />Waking up and having a panic attack because i felt i really really had to leave the house, not being able to find any clothes, man that sucked. ended up walking the three miles to my granparents house wearing a really tight vandals shirt and some swimming trunks. and dress shoes. with sunglasses, my mums sunglasses to be exact.<br /><br />now that i think of it, that was the last time i took e. that day sucked.Shane McPainhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18004070487602452659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169849407979145898.post-36145436799272742132009-05-27T05:45:22.333-07:002009-05-27T05:45:22.333-07:00Since the focus of the comments has shifted from v...Since the focus of the comments has shifted from vague acquaintances of Mr BK to actual show stories I'll throw one out there.<br /><br />Once I saw the Larry Arms at the Starland or Starlight Ballroom in NJ and my girl and I took a bunch of E and nothing happened.

In the spirit of sharing I'm going to share a little jem from my older brother's past......so some time in 93 my brother decides to visit my cousin in Boston. My cousin had turned him on to punk rock and all other sorts of independent music. Around this time a vast majority of people into anything (punk, metal, grunge etc.) had long hair, as a matter of fact almost all of my brothers friends did. So he goes up to Boston (we are from Houston...now I live in Austin) and they decide to go to a Sick of It All show. At the show my brother is standing in the back and a "skin head" girl kicks him in the back with her Doc Martins (evidentally they didn't have as much of the long hair thing going on in Boston...not really sure). He found this quite rude and told her to not kick him in the back. Well seeing this as an opportunity for further confrontation she kicks him again. Once again he tells her not to kick him. This of course happens again later in the show. Mind you, he tried being nice, so he turns around, punches her in the face and lays her out and runs as fast as he can out of the club. My cousin has no idea wher my brother went to and has to meet him back at his place. Evidentally my brother hid in a chinese restuarant for almost an hour in order to avoid the beating of his life.... he said it's pretty funny looking back on it, but at the time he was realy fucking scared......akhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15762981782482218577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5169849407979145898.post-89078988509262767832009-05-26T22:28:27.198-07:002009-05-26T22:28:27.198-07:001) This made me laugh so hard.
