" squandered opportunities " ? Outta town ?

Post Reply New Topic

...Periodically I have these AWFUL coughing spells ! (Like right now , for one) ~ And , I have been threatened to be thrown out of where I am because of the coughing ! I do think this could be at least somewhat affected by the lead/mercury .
I spit up quite a bit of fluid now .
The excess light-caused glare in my eyes is down , though ~ My room is window-less , so .

...I suppose I am somewhat hated by the " squandered opportunities " set because - ???
I didn't make my way to the CCSF registration all by myself , crippled and all ?
I just wanted a FRIEND ! I didn;t ask for money of gifts , just help - as with asking for help with my horrible tech skills .

...WHENI THOUGHT I COULD GO TO THE REGISTRATION-ETC. FOR EARLY 2017 CCSF I JUST WANTED SOMEONE TO HELP ME - SOMEONE I COULD TALK TO , WHO,D TAKE ME - YES , SOMEONE ON WHOSE SHOULDER TO CRY , REGARDING ALL THAT COLLEGES HAD DONE TO ME BEFORE - BUT , SOMEONE TO EXPRESS HOPES FOR THE FUTURE , TOO ;-9 .
SOMEONE TO : TAKE ME INTO A NEW WORLD ; , TO ; WELCOME MNE ; - TO BE MY UNCLE-DAD-COUSIN IN DOING THE SIGNING UP .
I DON,T SEE WHAT WAS SO TERRIBLE ABOUT WANTING THAT , JUST SOME CONSOLATION-ASSISTANCE ,
IT WASN;T ME ASKING FOR MONEY OR GIFTS , AS I THINK I,VE SAID BEFORE 1

The people at CCSF probably won't do the same crap as the people at those previous colleges you mentioned.

...THOSE TWENTYSOMETHING MODERN AS COLLEGE STUDENTS WHO GOT WRITTEN UP IN THAT NYT ARTICLE GET CATERED TO TO THE EXTENT OF BEING SHOWN HOW TO GO TO WALMART !
BUT MYSELF , MY CRIPPLED , OLD , EMBITTERED , SCARRED , SPAT-IN , DISAPPOINTED SELF IS SUPPOSED TO DO EVERYTHING ALL ALONE !
SOB .
THE JANUARY CCSF POSSIBILITY IS OVER (THERE IS EVEN A MILD/POSSIBILITY THAT CCSF COULD LOSE THEIR ACCREDIDATION AS A COMMUNITY COLLLEGE - BEING PUT OUT OF BUSINESS) - I WASMAYBE OPTIMISTIC IN EARLY NOVEMBER BUT THAT WAS BEFORE I LOST THE ROOM AND LOST THE CARD WITH ALL THE EFFECTS THAT THAT LED TO AND BEFORE IT BECAME APPARENT THAT I WASN,T GOING TO GET A RIDE AND A SHOULDER - OR ANY MORE REGISTRATION HELP WHATSOEVER - AND BEFORE THE LIMITS OF (1) MY PHYSICAL CONDITION (2) MY RESIDENTIAL & BACKGROUND SITUATION AND (3) MT ABILITY TO COPE WITH THE NEEDED BOOOKS AND TECH EVEN IF I ACQUIRED THEM BECAME APPARENT TO ME . ESPECIALLY IF FINANCIAL AID REQUIREMENTS FORCED ME TO TAKE TOO MANY COURSES ,
IN NOVEMBER IT SEEMED LIKE THINGS COULD POSSIBLY FALL TOGETHER AND ALLOW ME TO DO SOMETHING IN JNAUARY 2017 BUT THEY DID NOT DO SO .

As far as I'm concerned, they treated those college students like idiots!

Forget about that article in the Times. It's bullcrap.

Do you feel as though you could study in your current shelter?

True, Tobes. You made me think.

There have been many high school kids who were able to graduate high school while moving from shelter to shelter.

You can do the same. Take one course at a time.

...As this point , especially with your kind offer --- I am trying to go .

NOTHING will happen , application-wise , if I do not have help .
Period .
You had a support system , and status , around you .
I only got as partially far as I did in/around November , because I had that worker's help .
Period .
I . Need . Help .

A support system is only as helpful as how responsible the person being supported is.

What could anyone here do if they were standing over you with the application to help? What would you do differently and what action would another person have to do to get that result?

Why did you decide to stay then?
