I understand. I cant help you with money, but I know prayer helps. I just need to vent and I m sorry to do it to you when you are down as well. I am a 30 year that returned to college. I am happy to be doing it and graduate in May. However I know that I am the butt of jokes, am ridiculed and pretty much am sure very few people care. I have always struggled in math and now in my last semester have to take Industrial Hygiene. ( A hard class to begin, but add math and physics...) In my lab class today, as I am trying to do the worksheet, my professor basically called me out to be stupid. In front of the whole class!!!! I have always enjoyed this professor's classes, and have been president for 2 years and currently secetary for a club that he advises. I know I am slow at going in the math, but how he called me out, ( "Geese, this is 3 grade math, why don't you get it?) that really hurt. I am not suicidal, but do feel really alone and singled out. I can only prove him wrong by doing well on this exam (next week). But only time will tell. I can not fail this class. I need it to graduate. I hope things worked out for you. If you are reading this part, then thank you, for letting me vent. I sure i'll start to feel better soon. There is a lot more going on in my life now, but thats for another day. Bye. SLS
