some of you guys mentioned college, how you hate[d] it, so here's number #4

4. I absolutely frickin ****in hate it that I have to work two jobs just to support me, my fam and go to school at the same ****in time. I am only enrolled in the minimum number of classes due to not having time to study. becuase of this, i have to take summer and winter class to "catch up". I dont get financial aid because I'm young, and since I live with my mom I am considered a dependant off of her, and my "rich" family should paying for my tuition. Well, by mom works 9 months per year as an educational assistant. Its summer, so I pay all of the bills in our house as of now. Her divorce isn't finalized, so our "family" income is still 1xx,xxx. My income is 2x,xxx and her's is 1x,xxx, and my father's lives like a king, making $1xx,xxx and he never spent a damned penny on any of us when we all still lived together.

5) I think that affirmative action is complete bs, because of numer 4. I, and people like myself get the short end of the stick when it comes to college admission/ financial aid. Blacks get the lowest grades. Asians get the highest. Blacks get more fin aid money. Not to sound racist tho h: sorry if i do. Anyways, I belive that if people are going to be "helped", they should be helped equally regardless of race, national origin, creed, or SOCIOECONOMIC STATUS.

6. I'm racisth:, but never act upon it in public.

7. WI needs to subsidize tuition costs more. This $2200 per semester for a mediocre public school is complete :bs:. The tuition costs raise by 18% per year. My cousin goes to university of Texas- Austin and pays $600 per semester
