I agree the ideal of going to school especially and HBCU always excited but the effort and time you put into it I didn't know it was going to be this hard but I know it will be worth it. Hell the forms isn't the hard part it's picking a school. I think I made a choice but I'm not sure I wish I was like some of these others students who stand firm in there decisions me I'm just feeling my way through it.

yes! i never would have thought it to be this hard! The whole financial thing is what is really kickin my tail b/c of course i have to use my mothers info which looks like we paid on paper but in reality that definitely is not the case. I just can't wait for this part to be over!
