More hell from Massasoit

devilgrrlStill not really feeling well. I slept badly last night because I was so congested. Considering I took 2 sudafed and 2 NyQuil, you'd think I would have been fine, but no... I woke Steven up a couple times, as well, with my getting up and and laying back down. Boo, head cold.
Boldly on to the debacle with Massasoit:
Yesterday, I got a letter from them in the mail. I, naïvely, assumed that it was a confirmation of my withdrawl from a class. I mean, after how badly they screwed up my transcript and kept me from actually getting in to UMass last semester, how could the possible fuck up anything else?
I was wrong. DEAD wrong. It was a letter, probably from the welfare princess, telling me that I have not only be denied for a student loan for this semester, but they are retracting last semester's, as well. I bet you're thinking that, you know, I really royally messed up or turned out to not be eligible or something, but this is not the case. My grades were decent last semester. Not stellar, considering I bombed most of my finals because I was sick, but certainly nothing to be ashamed of. As for being ineligble, there are Stafford loans... the kind that you can get, no matter what. The kind that you can get so long as you can sign your name.
Besides, how do you retract an already dispersed student loan!?
So, after swearing and yelling at poor Ugly and trying to get some answers (none given, all of Massasoit is on spring break), I decided I am simply going to cut my losses and withdraw from there. Simple as that. I'm done. They've dicked around way too much for me to be bothered. I'm applying to a couple schools other than UMass, namely Bridgewater and possibly another community college as a back up plan, but I will never go back to Massasoit again, other than to withdraw and yell at Financial Aid.
That's been my week. We did catch up with Allison and Jay Wednesday night, which was nice, since I don't think I would have had a chance to see them otherwise. I also bumped into another couple of girls I graduated with who look, mostly, the same.
I need to take a shower and get my ass in general gear. I promised Steven I'd drop off a prescription for him at CVS before I picked up from work. I also would like to touch up the white streak and get my shower in. I also think we may have plans to go out tonight with a couple friends.
I'm going to go shower.
