Dark Heart

I wish it were that easy. I would have loved to have graduated from a great college, get a B.A., then go get a M.A., then go get a PH.D. Heck, I would have been happy to have graduated from college. But it was too expensive. I couldn't go to school and work the full time I needed to just to live and eat. My financial aid covered only tuition and fees...with some dollars left over for some books.

You see my family made too much for me to get financial aid but not enough to actually help support me in college.

So for now I study by myself, read good books, surf the net for some intelligence, and tune into public television and radio. And hope someday I can afford to go back.

Of course it didn't help that I was forced to go to the wrong college...the only one I could afford...I might have had a chance at a smaller college that cared about it's students. But again...it's all about the money.
