A Change of Plans

I regret to report that my big plans for college have drastically changed. My dad applied for a loan but he was denied, and I am not willing to take out a loan for general eds—to put that on myself and him. He already has debt, and I'm not going to contribute to it. I have a few thousand dollars saved already and I've decided to go to the community college here in town. I can keep my job and keep saving, so I can head up to Western in a year or two. It won't be as expensive once my brother starts going to college too. It's been a stressful week. I still have to cancel everything at Western, tell my roommate I won't be her roommate, and start the registration process at COCC. I'm also working on finding an apartment. The thing about going to WOU that I was most looking forward to was moving out, but I can still do that.

On a happier note, I met Olan Rogers at his Eat a Slice with Me tour in Seattle on the 4th! He's such a swell guy. :) And he'll be back next year in Portland, so I'll get to see him again. Also, I took my brother instead. I've been working on making more videos lately and I'd like to think they're improving.

Not much else is new. Friends are starting to leave for college and I've been trying to get in a little time with each one. Right now I just want to fast-forward to the time where I have no stress...
