[14:21] Thanatos: and apparently, double-clicking is too complicated to grasp

[14:22] D3V: LOL, dude same here actually. It's like, even the managers/supervisors don't know anything. It's pathetic..

[14:24] D3V: please don't procrastinate.

[14:25] Tuttifrutti: ah yes i meant to be angry at you for that post on the negative comments thread

[14:25] Thanatos: i am a huge procrastinator

[14:25] Thanatos: which is why im not in school right now

[14:25] D3V: you might think the job you have now is good for .. now, but eventually you get too absorbed in your everyday life that school becomes less of a priority..

[14:25] D3V: then* school\

[14:25] Tuttifrutti: i tried to start this fall semester but it was too late, so im gonna do spring while im living alone

[14:25] Tuttifrutti: hey im only 19 lol

[14:26] Tuttifrutti: ive taken a year and a half off, i dont think thats that bad

[14:26] Tuttifrutti: and my job is damn better than workin at mcdonalds

[14:26] Thanatos: well im moving back to my moms wednesday so.. im gonna be bored as fuck so im going to enroll in school

[14:26] Thanatos: tutti, it's not bad at all

[14:26] Tuttifrutti: i could start any week if i wanted to do online classes, but i want to physically go to classes

[14:27] D3V: nah, I waited a year as well, but so I was 18 when I first started, but then I messed around and got withdraawn and ended up owing a shitload of money, which put things off even longer.

[14:27] Thanatos: exactly what i did...

[14:27] Thanatos: jesus..

[14:27] Thanatos: I went a semester, lost my scholarship, dropped out, and ended up owing money

[14:27] Thanatos: rofl

[14:27] D3V: yeah, I owed like 1300 bucks, and I had to pay up front this time around for all my shit including books and everything for them to reinstate my financial aid NEXT semseter.

[14:27] D3V: Fucking bullshit.

[14:28] D3V: I had to pay off the bill, then pay for the two new classes as well as books and everything all just to get back in for this semester, and I have to pass both classes with atleast B's I think for them to even reconsider giving me financial aid again.

[14:28] System: !King_Amazon! has joined the chat

[14:28] !King_Amazon!: Financial aid is annoying as balls.

[14:28] Thanatos: I can't wait to get back in school...

[14:28] !King_Amazon!: So is paying for school.

[14:29] Thanatos: Universities should be funded by the government

[14:29] Thanatos: Let everyone who wants an education get one

[14:29] Tuttifrutti: well since im still considered a dependent of my mom and she barely held a job last year, i'll get financial aid i think

[14:29] Thanatos: How are you gonna deny somebody an education because they're poor and can't afford it?

[14:29] D3V: Here in Florida they are turning our community colleges into universities.

[14:29] Tuttifrutti: that kind of sucks

[14:30] D3V: actually my CC is already a university now, since they now offer everything for a few masters degrees.

[14:30] D3V: I agree totally Thanatos.

[14:30] D3V: We can't have the federal government do it though, because then republicans would fucking complain and our continious cycle of being the most illiterate industrialized nation in the world will remain.

[14:31] Thanatos: HAH

[14:31] Thanatos: fuck..

[14:31] !King_Amazon!: The government is so full of retards that I wouldn't want universities to be ran by them.

[14:31] D3V: Obama wants to start with a $4,000 a year free college tuition check that all students can take advantage of as long as they pay it off with community service.

[14:31] !King_Amazon!: Not to mention, paying for school isn't THAT hard. I'm paying for mine completely by myself, without any parental help

[14:31] !King_Amazon!: And I'm poor.

[14:31] !King_Amazon!: So are my parents.

[14:31] D3V: Dude, how brilliant of an idea is that. Seriously, educate our youth and let them help out their neighbors in the process to pay it off. Seriously.

[14:32] Tuttifrutti: did you take out loans that you'll pay after college?

[14:32] Tuttifrutti: or do you literally pay as you go?

[14:32] D3V: who

[14:32] !King_Amazon!: I get loans as I need them.

[14:32] Tuttifrutti: K_A

[14:32] !King_Amazon!: But I work full time

[14:32] Tuttifrutti: alright im off to lunch

[14:32] Tuttifrutti: see you guys later

[14:32] D3V: ah, that's why it sucks. Go throgh the State-wide program you have, and get the one where you acn make monthly payments after class.

[14:32] !King_Amazon!: I mean, if someone wants to go to school without working full time, it would be harder

[14:32] !King_Amazon!: I bust my ass so I can pay for school by myself

[14:33] !King_Amazon!: And I still go to school almost full time, if not full time

[14:33] D3V: Same here i've been fulltime now for over a year.. and a few months.

[14:33] System: Tuttifrutti has left the chat

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: I don't think the government should just pay for everyone to go to school simple as that

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: It's not impossible to do it

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: I got bad grades all through high school, my parents are poor (I make more than either of my parents)

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: I don't live with my parents

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: I'm doing just fine.

[14:34] !King_Amazon!: It sucks, and it's hard, but I can do it

[14:35] !King_Amazon!: It's not like it's impossible for me to do it.

[14:35] !King_Amazon!: I barely get any aid from the government

[14:35] !King_Amazon!: My first year, I got a $430 pell grant

[14:35] D3V: Yes, but not everyone has a job that makes as much money as you do. Most younger people don't make more money than their parents, actually you are probably in about a 1% category.

[14:35] !King_Amazon!: this year, nothing

[14:35] !King_Amazon!: I only make $12.00 an hour.

[14:36] !King_Amazon!: or $12.50. Can't remember.

[14:36] D3V: Ah. Yeah that's about the same as me.. it sucks too because I never get any grants.

[14:36] !King_Amazon!: $12.50, I just checked,

[14:36] !King_Amazon!: Either way, I live a decent life on that

[14:37] !King_Amazon!: I've got a nice apartment, I don't have to scrounge for money

[14:37] !King_Amazon!: My rent is $771 a month.

[14:37] D3V: How much do you spend on bills.

[14:37] D3V: Hm. Well that's reasonable I suppose.

[14:37] !King_Amazon!: Nikki only makes $12 an hour

[14:37] D3V: If it's split, not too bad.

[14:38] !King_Amazon!: We pool our money together

[14:38] !King_Amazon!: I think our bills are like...

[14:38] !King_Amazon!: ~$70-80 power

[14:38] !King_Amazon!: ~$20 gas

[14:38] !King_Amazon!: ~$75-90 cable/internet
