Hi Y'all,                                                                              9/28/10
 
I totally forgot about this site!!
SORRY! Mea Culpa!
August 3rd of '09 I start school, got a Mac laptop and my old 'puter died.
As a result I totally forgot about this site.
Today I received an email saying 'Really' sent me a message.
Hey, I'm back.

I am writing because I am getting desperate and getting close to my deadline of Aug 3rd, Let me explain. I have spent two months on the Internet to find grants & scholarships for college.

I sit on my butt watching TV or goofing on the computer. Can't afford to go anywhere on my income, $674 a month. Can't work, have no balance and cannot walk without a cane or help.

Why not go to school online, get a baccalaureate in Graphic Design and start an online business making webpages or whatever clients want. This is where desperation comes in and where this letter comes in.         I NEED HELPFUL ADVICE.

I have a school, Full Sail University in Winter Park, Fl. Most graduates from this school work in the entertainment industry. It is more expensive but the tuition covers everything I will need, I will even have a little cash sent to me for scanner and printer that I will need for school and later. Unfortunately, it is a private school and they don't help a lot in my scholarships search, they just go for loans.

I do not want to graduate with beaucoup debt in school loans, I am not going to live forever and I don't want my daughter stuck with school loans, unless they are hers or for the kid's, not mine.

I AM A WHITE WOMAN, OVER FIFTY, DISABLED AND A NAVY BRAT & SPOUSE. (we separated in '77 but still married) I SHOULD QUALIFY FOR SOMETHING!

This is where you come in, people who've already been through this and know where to go. I have tried Florida, was told "most of our grants are for high school kids". Have searched for ALL those government grants we hear about, they are for teachers, medical students or organazations no individual grants. PLEASE, HELP!!!!

I have joined 3 of those deals to find grants but all I have done is waste money I don't have.
