The file will appear (it’s a Microsoft Word document, so if you don’t have Microsoft Word, this may not work for you… and you need to GET Microsoft Word on your computer!).

BOOLAR RECEIVES GOOD NEWS FROM ANN, THE WONDERFUL FINANCIAL AID LADY

I swung on over to Ann’s office today. For those that don’t know, Ann is the financial aid counselor at Valpo Law School, which means she also has to play the role of nerve-soother and advice-giver to folks like me who are freaked out about not having enough money and fear they’ll wind up homeless by the end of the semester without more loans. She is patient, and she knows her job well, and she doesn’t even make me schedule an appointment to come visit her. Lovely!

She let me know that the health insurance I had to purchase (since I would otherwise be uninsured, and that’s just not wise) was actually cover-able by my government financial aid! Yay! So I just have to turn in the proof that said insurance was purchase for said student (that’s me), and I’ll get that amount given back to me by Uncle Sam. That’s very good news.

Phew. So, I can fold up my cardboard box for now… don’t have to move in there just yet! Yay, Ann! Bananas all around.

BOOLAR ASSESSES MARISSA’S MORNING ROUTINE

M takes about a year and a half to get ready each day. Honestly, it’s ridiculous. Take a look:

Alarm clock goes off, M gets up, makes bed, works out, stretches: 1 hour 20 minutes

Showers, does skincare, hair, makeup, gets dressed: 1 hour 20 minutes

Prepares & eats breakfast, grabs lunch for later that day, gets bookbag/purse ready, leaves house: 20 minutes

That’s three hours. THREE hours! In a week’s time, considering only weekdays, that means M absorbs fifteen hours just getting ready (well, and working out). Crazy.

She says she has searched for ways to pare down the get-ready process, but she swears it is as pared down as it can get, unless she starts leaving out things like skincare, hair-doing, makeup-ing, breakfast, and lunch… and those are vital, so I don’t see that happening.

Alas. THREE HOURS. Crazy.

Apefully yours,
Boolar The Ape
