vent session, anyone?

So, here i sit, or have sat for the past 2 weeks rather, trying to apply for federal student aid. You wont believe how ridiculously hard it is just to file the application. Unless you have before, then you know my frustration. Once you've given them all the information they could ever need about you (i.e: name, birth date, gross yearly income, shoe size, religious up bringing etc.) from there it becomes amusingly complex to process. I've had to check on it ever single day since i filed it, and every single day there is something wrong with it, apparently they know if you lie about your shoe size. And now that it has completely processed, i don't qualify for any of the grants.
So, tell me this how is it that and 18 year old daughter of a widow, who supports herself is expected to pay for her own education. It's common knowledge that you need a higher education to be successful in any sense. So why do they make it so damn expensive to do the right thing, that's not to mention that nobody is willing to help me out with these expenses.

That's it, I'm going to find a way to beat the system, get rich quick and screw college. Stick it to the man, if you will.

Girls Night=Success

Just so you all know, the cure for an entirely horrid beginning of the month is without a doubt a night at home with the girls. First rule of girls night, no boys allowed duhhh. Yes, we did put a sign on the door informing the outside world. Second rule we learned after this night, lock the doors. We had some uninvited guests, 'the boys' with squirt guns. Ass holes. A whole night of girl talk, oh my, who could you go wrong really? Anyway here's some cute pictures of really cute me, and my even cuter friends!



seriously, best watermelon everrrr.






everyone minus ashley



mary is near impossible to be in a picture with.

Keegan Cedric Ransdell

As I'm sure you've all of you have heard already, one of my best friends took his own life on Monday of this week. He was one of the best friends i ever had. I never heard him talk badly about anybody, unless of course it was with me in good sarcasm ;) He was a best friend to everybody he met. There isn't a person who knows him that doesn't have at least a hand full of inside jokes with him. He will be sorely missed. No services are being held, he has being cremated and taken home to his parents.
"love you, smelly"

Keegan Cedric Ransdell Carl and Susan Ransdell Wish to Say Goodbye to Our Loving Son A sweet and gentle soul who touched the hearts of all who knew him. He will be warmly remembered and sorely missed by all. He asked that we consider Rev. 21:4 and not mourn his departure. No service planned.
