Things are now in motion that cannot be undone

Congrats to me: I officially am in student loan repayment as I made my first payment today. Shortly after, I received this message:

• Welcome, Amy, to a life of poverty for the x amount of years. Thank you for giving us back money used to fund your near-useless college degree. As you continue to endure employment and economic hardship, we will be spending your payments on crooked politics to piss a lot of people off. Sincerely, the Bush Administration via Jennifer Granholm.

Oh how much I truley love federal student loans funded through state agencies. No matter how greatly my life will suck until I find a routine to pay these monsters, going to U-D honestly made me a better person and for that, there is no pricetag. If you think "Avril" is something to reckon with, imagine the hellion I was before.

No car means no work means teaching drought continues.

New bookcase in my room with neatly organized shelves is nice, though the overall feeling of clutter, chaos, and *add other 'c' adjective here* still linger. I wonder if I will realize what this void is and stop walking around in a stupor. Until that realization dawns on me however, I shall continue on with my dull existence with a smile on my face and bright, chipper attitude and tend over my flocks by night. Precisely.
