	Put an end to popups!

quote: Originally posted by Ozz some of us here sent themselves thought college without anyones help, and suffered pretty bad doing it, now it's takes every penny to send our kids though college so they don't NEVER have to go through that. Going hungry is one of the worse things you can ever experience.

I had some help from my folks on my first degree but I ALWAYS worked a job while studying and never owned a computer or a car. I was a regular at the schools computer lab and wangled a job there. When I went for my second degree I would return to a job at the local liquor store, working up until Christmas eve or New years if I could manage it. Even with that, I had many meals of chicken thigh soup and learned that you can really fill up at any number of faculty or firm receptions-- veggie trays and cheeses were staples and hot nibblies were an extra special treat. I always thought that facing a little bit of adversity was just part of growing up-- My kids will have college available to them BUT I seriously doubt they will have a car in high school

I know it probably sounds like the old stories of walking to school chest deep in snow in August and uphill both ways . . . but I know what I had to do to get through school and it sounds as if you already have it better than most students

Now , that said, I do believe parents should have some food in the house for their child still in high school. I sympathyze there

	Avatar Enlargement: We've got the solution

At my school we are allowed to add the cost of a new computer into the cost of attendence. Depending on what year you are, they allow you to borrow anywhere from $2600-$5500 dollars to buy a new computer. It's a program run by the Department of Education. You may want to look into it rather than engage in fraud.

Obviously the only solution to the problem is to change majors from Music to Physical Education. You don't need a fancy computer for a PE degree. Best of luck in your new career.

Here's the information on the program at my school: http://www.olemiss.edu/depts/financ...roComputer.html

Given its Federal roots, it may be worth your time to check out out with your financial aid office.

Well i am going to Collage now. I also have a part time job as well. Well right now I am going to Community Collage for my AA, which cuts the coast of your edcation a lot and generally the GE class you have to take are better at a Community Collage then at a 4 year school. Of course it looks like you already got accept to a school and such so it looks like you would not be able to do that.

If I want something I really have to get it myself, no one gets it for me. Right now I am saving up for a laptop computer since I dont have one and will help in Computer Science since I can take it any were and work on project when I need to and of course play games like Civ3 and MOO3 with it. I also live at home with my parents and that helps too. I plan on applying for grants and loans and such when I transfer to a 4 year school. I am also looking for a better paying job, well I am a tutor right now and I think what I will do is get cerified so I can get paid more money per hour.

Well their is always a solution to every problem.
Also You might not need to get a new computer at all, you could always try to rebuild the computer you got, and sometime you can put a faster cpu on the same mother board you already got.

450 bucks?no deal.

I don't need them both,really. but I'd take the one with the 1Mhz, for free, that's about it.

for 450 bucks I can get a new "box", so thanks, but no thanks.

I'd take a 15'' computer screen in a good condition for 50 bucks, though.
