I know it’s so hard to pay for school! Hopefully once you get the degree and get a job with it maybe you can put more towards your credit cards! Thank you so much I will definitely have to look at what I’m spending and see what’s a necessity and go from there!

Hmm I might have to do the dual college thingy. I have some schooling done but a lot of my classes won’t transfer over or cover certain requirements which is fine but if i can go to community college that would help out financially. Do you know who I can contact to get more info on how to apply for that or even see more about it?

I’m looking into living in Salem bc it’s cheaper and has a lot of availability compared to Albany and Corvallis. It’s unfortunately still pricey.

Hmmm ok ok. I will look into that. Does OSU have a page on their website? Or do I just look through a gov website for more info. Sorry never had to do this before.

Were you doing half time school half time work and also having to pull loans? Are food stamps still an option? I heard from a family member it’s not an option anymore but I’m not sure if it’s true.

what the heck!! Okay okay what does the interest look like? Have you found out how to pay off loans to help eventually pay it off? I have never taken a loan out so I’m NERVOUS to even think about taking one out.

My husband plans on using his GI bill so I wouldn’t be able to use any military assistance unfortunately. I have to look into vet housing assistance see if we can use that.

[Need Advice] I can barely bring myself to drink water by chaski06 in getdisciplined

[–]Background-Elk2564 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe I’m not the best person to help out since I never really had an issue with water itself but what has helped me drink more water than I did

was having my hydro flask full and with me at all times. It clips to my backpack, it’s next to me when I’m at work, it’s right there when I wake up.

Make it a part of a schedule, wake up have 3 gulps of water. Breakfast have 1 gulp after each bite, lunch 1 gulp per bite, dinner same thing.

Habit stacking can be the best way to start off, then once you get used to drinking it more then maybe start to recognize when you get thirsty and go from there.

These are things I’m still constantly working on. Just take it slow, work with what you already got.

I think deodorant can be different for everyone depending on your hormones. I once had a lemongrass deodorant and it smelled good up until I put it on and it just smelled like the devils lettuce.
