I too would suggest getting a video doorbell or other device to record the hallway.

That really does sound scary @@.
Like SD mentioned I would check with the cameras just to be sure if it wasn't left by mistake or by ex-2.

Yeah, video doorbell sounds good.
I'm calming down enough to breathe normally. Thanks, guys. |

ATAT-that’s so scary. I would have freaked out too. Get the ring doorbell. You can install it pretty easily. I hope maybe somebody wanted to leave it for someone and just had the wrong floor or something.

I'm so frustrated! I was thinking seriously of taking out a small student loan - just an extra $300/month to help me with rent. But it looks like they would just send the money directly to my school. That wouldn't help me at all! The parents directly pay the tuition.

It's been awhile, but when I was in school and getting the max in federal student loans, the money went to the school, tuition was paid and then the school gave me a check for whatever was left over. Of course you have to pay them back someday, so use with caution. I have been paying mine for 12 years and still have about 18 more years of student loan repayments left I think.

OMG, I'm so sorry to hear of these Student Loan problems and financial problems. Shoot, it seems there are ways to get them forgiven. Like disability or personal hardship, sickness of self or family members. Also was there not a way to work in underprivileged areas or where needed for a time to have the loan paid with hours worked?
I did have a loan forgiven way back in 1990 or so, because of disability. First they offered to just defer any interest and hold the loan amount till I could work but since it was a permanent disability I said no on advice of a friend I believe. |

I am going out to help a technophobic friend get a new cell phone. This means I am going out, buying a phone and setting it up and handing it to my technophobic friend.

I would not recommend susannah, or anyone, get a student loan with the expectation that they will be able to get it forgiven. There are many people that did just that, with the expectation that after 10 years of repayments and work in the public sector (I know it was teachers, but maybe some other professions also) their remaining balance would be forgiven and then they were denied when they applied for the forgiveness. It's really terrible. NPR did a series about this topic recently. I do not work in a profession that would qualify for one of these programs and I can now afford the repayment. But I also know a lot of people take out loans and then can't afford the payment with the job they get after school.

I distracted myself from the bear by taking my economics midterm. Worked like a charm.
I’m heading out again now, and if the bear is still there taking it down to the front desk to deal with. |

One of my friends got hit by this situation. She was denied the forgiveness thing, and was going along paying for it when her young daughter came down with a medical condition that literally cost my friend every penny kind of thing and she defaulted on her loan. They compounded the interest or something ridiculously and are now garnishing her wages and she somehow owes like 3 times what she originally borrowed now and does not foresee ever paying it off. It's really crazy and sad. And she's not even a teacher anymore. |

Yeh, my student loans are now over $200,000 for my BA. I have always paid what I could when I was working. I wasn’t working for a while and still wanted to make my payments but they said I had to pay nothing and let the interest accumulate or pay $1,200/mo (the full payment) because apparently there is no program that allows you to use non-earned money (birthday, holiday gifts) to pay it off. It is ridiculous and will never be paid off... and other than those my credit would be really good.

I was very, very lucky that my grandpa put money in a savings account every birthday and christmas starting when I was little and that is what paid for my college in the 1980's. My son got a scholarship that paid for his because of his smarts and hard work in high school. I certainly didn't qualify for any back in the day...

Wait, what? Are you in the US with normal student loans? As far as I know, they don't care where the money comes from. It's just another bill like your car payment or electric bill. You can pay with birthday money or wages or whatever. My husband hadn't worked in over a decade and they were still calling trying to get him to pay. They didn't care where it came from.

If they were honest, they'd tell you up front:
It will take ten years and you'll break three Ts along the way.

You are clearly on the threshold of a major breakthrough. There is no way now but forward, and you'll feel better once you're through.

I woke from a dream that is really bugging me. In the first part of the dream I was homeless but I had a bull terrier in the last part of the dream which appears to be in ultra sharp focus I am in a hospital and I need to go to the toilet so I am taking my dog up to corridor where the toilet is but next to the wall there is a small dog bed with 2 bowls beside it and behind them 2 larger dog beds partly closing of the entrance to the corridor I am complaining about health and safety when I get to the toilet door which is just beyond the dog beds I shove at them with my foot but all I do is jumble them and not make any more room
