bleh... frustrated!

if only money DIDN'T make the world go 'round! sheesh.. I owe SO much money in student loan debt it's ridiculous. Even worse, i have no way to make payments as I don't have a steady job. Yay for living in a rural area. I've been looking for a job for TWO years, and have yet to be offered anything. I'm subbing now, but it's not steady, and the loan company told me today that they're not offering any more 3 month deferments, and I'll have to start making payments in April, or pay $150 a MONTH in deferment fees (which don't apply to my loan!). I had planned on using my tax return money to take a class that will help me get my teaching certificate, but looks like I may have to use it to pay these loan payments.. (which are about $650/month, and that's only for HALF of my loans)...
Bah.. I know this is really supposed to be about knitting, but this was just something I had to complain about.. If anyone knows of a high paying job in rural Virginia, oh please let me know! ;)
ANYWAY... I'm currently test-knitting a beautiful scarf from JulieGoddess on Ravelry! It's very nice, and I'm happy to be doing it for her! I think I'm going to go work on that and maybe relax a little bit from this frustrating news..
