My mother just told me she's disappointed in me. I am the news editor at the paper. Next semester I will be managing editor. The following semester I will be editor in chief. I work 40 hours a week and I get paid for 20. I am the project manager of my technical writing class project. I take care of my cat. I have a social life. For the most part, I get my homework done.

She's pissed because I am only taking 12 credit hours as opposed to 16 and because I gave in and said I was going to graduate in 5 years instead of 4.

"This semester is not going the way I planned," she said.

WHAT THE HELL?! THE WAY YOU PLANNED?! I don't know what to do anymore.

The government is paying for my education. My dad gives me some money every month to help me with rent because I get paid $3/hr compared to what I'm working. But they don't give me money for tuition.
