I stayed up all night last night. No reason. Just for the hell of it. Spent my time looking at stileproject, portalofevil, somethingawful, and seanbaby. Yeah, what a way to pass the time, I say. My friend John was up studying so I stayed up with him. He’s got a big test in two hours. I’ve got a class I haven’t been to in two weeks at 10. I’m way tired. I keep farting. Chili, y’know. I have only $13 to my name right now. That’s for food and gas etc., until I have a job. I have one but they don’t give me work. Fucking employment agency. I applied to some movie rental places cuz I like movies. I’m thinking of selling some blood today for some dough. I have one pizza left, and a lasagna. After those, my food is all out. Yeah, selling blood it is. Maybe some medical research, too. That’d earn me a bunch of money. Male, nonsmoker, 19, healthy. I’m sure I’d work for testing exfoliators or something stupid like that. Maybe breathing medication. I’m so far in debt it’s not funny. I applied for a student loan, they said I was approved, with a cosigner. Guess what, bozo? My parent’s REFUSE to cosign for me. Fuck! I talked to finaid. They said they’d put me on the list for workstudy and call me. Two weeks later I go in. “Why didn’t you call me?” “You’re not eligable.” Motherfuckers! I need MONEY! Didn’t expect this to be a downer. Guess it is. I’m going to take a shower in about an hour and trek down to Royall (yes, two L’s) for classes. Fuckity fuck. I’m up for recruitment, and EC (executive committee, basically one of the most powerful positions) in the fraternity during elections next week or so. Hope I win. I crave power. I will eat your soul. Keep on truckin.

I guess that explains why you posted this thread 4 times? 😉 Seriously though, I’m sure everything will work out for you.

AH FUCK FUCK FUCK! I just emailed Euty and UncleBeer. DAMN!

It kept giving me some script error and accusing me of witchcraft and whatnot and timing out.

From a perviously poor college student…

Forget donating blood. Donate plasma. You can do it far more often. Usually they will let you donate every other day but not more than 3 times a week. Or, if you are so inclined, donate sperm.

Plasma, that’s what I meant. Doesn’t that hurt like a BIZNATCH, though? What about medical research studies?

I dunno about spermies. I think ONE of me is enough for the world! Although ::scratches chin:: a guy could get used to being paid to beat off. Hell, I already do it for free…
