Stressing, as does every 20-something in America....

I need to vent. I suppose that's what this website is for, afterall. It seems that's what we all need. A big bubble to go inside of, let it all out, and then seal off and hope it pops and destroys all of our hot air with it. If only it were that easy...

I'm starting to get very worried about finances. I have a job, I work full time right now while searching for a teaching position, but I have those dreaded debts hanging over my head and yelling at me with every swipe of my pretty gold debit card. How am I supposed to live on what I make? Does anyone? Okay, besides Paris Hilton and the sort. How did I possibly rack up $5000 in credit card debt and over $100,000 in student loans? And how, pray tell, am I, at 26 years old, going to be able to make a transitional move to Virginia in a month, secure a place to live, and eventually get married and have babies within 4 years?

*sigh*

I wish it could be easier...

If I ever hit the lottery I'm putting money away and not telling anyone about it. That's a complete lie. I do want to save up money though for my children so that they have a college fund, and then not tell them. I want them to know what it's like to actually HAVE to work and rely on your job to survive.

It's so sad that $ = survival.

Baby all I do is suffer from symptoms of you

Papers, plastics, chords, and chamelions.
I couldn't get off this ride if I wanted to.
