Worse yet, thanks to the craziest week of my life I've spent quite a bit of my tax return money hanging out with friends -- and with no constant source of income, I'm suddenly feeling a lot less free than I did before. Doesn't exactly help that I found out too late that one of my friends could have paid on my behalf, therefore meaning I wouldn't have had to throw all that cash away. Seriously: you never know how easy it is to lose money until it's gone. Especially when you happen to be unemployed.
All I have is my classes... but I even find them to be somewhat frustrating. Almost as if they're getting in the way of a perceived path of life that I desperately want: independence. Yet simultaneously a degree would ensure that I could more easily get a more lucrative job in the future... but naturally I'm being impatient about all this. You know what'd be nice? A chance to make some money. Not for any long-term employment, but just a few opportunities here and there to do something good in exchange for payment. I'm sick of feeling limited. I'm sick of feeling the shackles of empty pockets. But what do I do? Where do I start looking? What opportunities await me on campus?
Maybe it's time I started searching around online... there's got to be something I can do here. After all, we're living in the age of the internet; not everything is so limited anymore.
