  • I actually don't blame Obama for this one.  Even my student loans give more leniency than that.  Care Credit is just notoriously known for wanting to pull as much money out of you as possible.

    These are people that you could be jobless and homeless and they'll still continue to rack up that past due amount with absolutely no way of being able to slow it down (I mean, student loans offer deferment, and if you don't qualify for those then forebearance which stops loans for a period but increases the interest percentage).  And the fact that even if you pay the right amount, they don't even put any of it towards your current payment is silly.  Let me pay what I owe now, and I'll pay off my past amount as I'm able.

    Or at the very least, don't keep charging late fees when I'm paying the amount required for the normal minimum payment.

  • I'm having one of those days again.

    One of the singers at karaoke tonight proposed to her girlfriend.  Part of me was really happy because it's a wonderful thing to see, and it's something I've never seen in person before.

    But I also want to just hide away, curl up in a ball, and cry.  It may sound pathetic, and you're probably right, but it just reminds me that I'm single, and no matter how much I may want something like that...I may never get it, and it kills me inside because I want it.

    Ugh, now I really just want to hide away right now. <.<

  • The periods when you're on your own always feel like they last as long as winter whilst memories of being with someone are akin to summer days remembered at the end of autumn. I always just remind myself that winter, like all other seasons, has its time and summer will roll around again eventually.

  • Well, fortunately for me it seems like my schedule will stabilize in the foreseeable future. Unfortunately, the foreseeable future is at least a week away. And may not happen. But still, hope, right?
    I Hope You Have A Nice Day :]

  • Stay hopeful my friend!
    Memorial service tomorrow! Or today. Time.
    I got a new outfit for it... Sort of casual sort of dressy... Maybe I'll post pictures if I like how it looks...
    In the meantime I'm debating whether to read my completely crazy grandmothers obsessive bible... I don't know if I really want to but at the same time it will always be the only connection or understanding of her I can ever have? So... Debating...

    I'm sorry, that first line reminded me of the "Stay thirsty" ads :]

    As to the second part, I have some idea what you're going through. My own grandmother (who passed) was deeply religious and conservative (and somewhat racist, she once went into an airport gift shop and exclaimed loudly "Oh, I love this nigger doll, I want it!"). In the end, I decided I would remember the parts about her I love and remember less the parts I didn't. I dont know if this helps, just wanted to share my story.

    Also, my condolences. I hope you find peace.

    Cheer up, it only gets worse. :P

    On the plus side, you'll get used to being a zombie eventually. Or you'll have a mental breakdown. But positive thoughts, right!

    And @Reon, I'm sorry for your loss. I would suggest reading it. Even if you don't believe a word of it, at the very least you'll gain a deeper understanding of what made your grandmother the way she was.

    Besides, even speaking as an Agnostic, I find that all religious texts have some common sense to them in certain parts. I rather enjoy reading them as a product of their times.
