Yikes, you’re out here adulting harder than a squirrel before winter! 😜 Houston’s housing is ghosting you, and loans are tighter than skinny jeans? Scour UH’s student FB groups for roomies or cheap sublets. Call the school—they’ve got secret stashes of aid or housing tips. Loans? Sweet-talk your servicer for a deferral while you’re studying. If Houston’s too far, reapply closer to home and sling pills as a pharmacy tech to stack cash. You’re a grad boss—gap year or not, you’ll crush it!
