I need good vibes (and a swift kick in the pants)

Ack!

I have an exam on Saturday but I have to work tonight so I have no free time to study. Plus, I just got paid WAY less than I thought and now I have no money for well, rent (forget about x-mas gifts). My boyfriend lost his job yesterday just in time for the holidays and can't come home to my parents with me so he will be spending the holidays alone. Now, I can't stop crying and it's snowing and agh!!!!

:cry: Please send your sweet DU love this way.
ps. sorry, but I have no one else to cry to right now.

5. Thanks

It was the checking of the bank account that sent me over the edge. I can't seem to catch up with myself financially.

6. I wish

I work retail (small store). I unfortunately am not entitled to sick days because I am not a manager, plus, it would be up to me to find a replacement, which would completely distract me from the exam. Poop. thanks for the suggestion though.

4. You know what?

All the troubles will pass. You'll get through/around this. And in years to come you'll find this to be a very special, warm holiday season in spite of all the troubles, and, maybe even BECAUSE of the troubles. The only value of getting older (like me) is that you have been through crappy times also and can pass words of hope and comfort along to the next generation.

Can't offer much more than this :hug:
