So, I've come to the conclusion that I can't expect to depend on my parents anymore financially. It's not their place to pay for things that I should have taken care of myself. They don't have the money and they shouldn't have to pay for it. I should have been paying for my own things as soon as I turned 18. That didn't happen.
I'm in an apartment I obviously can't afford so once this lease is up, I guess I'm moving back home or getting a student loan I'll never be able to pay off due to the fact I'm going into a career that pays horribly. I can't get a job because nobody will hire you without experience anymore obviously. Not only that, but there are barely any jobs available. It leaves me in a crazy spot. I don't know whether my best bet is to just stop college for a year or more and try to find a job that way I can go back when I've saved up the money to afford everything on my own. It's confusing.
I'm also considering not going on the mission trip in march. That's money I can use for rent and whatever else I need it for. I really want to go, but sometimes you don't get what you want. It's depressing, but I know I need to take care of what I got myself into.
