Hard Times

Hard Times
Posted By: Jazmyn Roberts on January 30, 2006


Things have not been to good for me in my opinion. I have not been happy since I left for PVAMU, and I had to leave PV because of financial aid. I owe a lot of money, which forces me to go and get two jobs to pay it off. Love life is in the dumps (like always!), I fell like crying at least once a week because I'm depressed.



I hate how things are going in the dumps for me and I'm trying to make the best of the situation, but seeing how the job economy is going and how so much money is gone due to natural disasters, which ultimately hurts the majority, if not most, of citizens' pockets.
I'm trying to do the best that I can. I am thankful that I am living one day to the next and that I don't have any children nor expecting at my age. I'm thankful for the small things that does goes on in my life. I pray for better things. This is so hard for me to deal with and I don't know what to do other than leaving it in God's hands. There other things that are going on that I rather not mention, but I am depressed and trying to do the best that I can do to survive. I just thought that I would share that, because really it keeps me from exploding.
