Squeak 17 #26 March 23, 2005 Quotethanks Lainey...btw...where is your sig line from? Brand New GuernicaEver since I was young your word is the word that always won. Worry and wake the ones you love. A phone call I'd rather not receive. Please use my body while I sleep. My lungs are fresh and yours to keep, Kept clean and they will let you breathe. Is this the way a toy feels when its batteries run dry? I am the watch you always wear but you forget to wind. Nobody plans to be half a world away at times like these, so I sat alone and waited out the night. The best part of what has happened was the part I must have missed. So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around. I'm not writing my goodbyes. I submit no excuse. If this is what I have to do I owe you every day I wake. If I could I would shrink myself and sink through your skin to your blood cells and remove whatever makes you hurt but I am too weak to be your cure.

So I'm asking you to shine it on and stick around. I'm not writing my goodbyes. I'm not letting you check out. You will beat this starting now and you will always be around. I'm there to monitor your breathing I will watch you while you're sleeping. I will keep you safe and sound. Does anybody remember back when you were very young. Did you ever think that you would be this blessed?You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing?

Nightingale 0 #30 March 23, 2005 Talk with your financial aid office. If you can't get more workstudy money, there are loan companies who will give student loans to students with no co-signer. Sallie Mae is one. There are a bunch of others. It depends on which ones deal with your school regularly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
skysprite 0 #31 March 23, 2005 QuoteBank of America has a loan called the "education maximizer loan" which is meant for use for stuff like living expenses. you can borrow up to 30K per academic year, but you need a co-signer. That's how I'm paying my rent through law school. Do you have to count that as income though? I was told any amount I get that is over the school's defined cost of education must be counted as income. ?~skysprite Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nightingale 0 #37 March 23, 2005 No, I don't believe it's counted as income. The IRS site says nothing about it, and there are a lot of people out there living on student loans. However, check with a tax professional to be certain. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nightingale 0 #38 March 23, 2005 From the FAQ at http://66.99.255.20/osa/FinancialAid/FAFAQ.cfm#taxable Are student loans taxable income? No. But, some scholarships and work-study income are. Make sure to carefully read any forms or contracts. If you have questions about something you are expected to sign, talk to a Financial Aid Officer before you sign. See the IRS tax publication 970 for more information. IRS form is found here: http://216.239.63.104/search?q=cache:poo9vVNGi7MJ:www.irs.gov/pub/irs-pdf/p970.pdf+irs+tax+publication+970&hl=en Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sometimes, when bad things happen, it trips the Karma in the opposite direction and things turn out even better than you had planned.

kallend 2,106 #46 March 25, 2005 Higher education of the citizenry no longer seems a national priority in the USA. Loans, aid grants and college works study funds have been cut, cut and cut again....
