Deposit

Last week housing deposits were due. Its simple, if you don't pay by the deadline you don't get housing. The cut off was February 11th at 5:00. So not knowing what I am going to do next year I panicked when I woke up that morning. I didn't pay yet, nor did I have $225 to pay. I had no idea what to do.I know that I don't want to stay at Salem, there is nothing great that is keeping me here. But I don't really have any other options right now. Going into college I didn't really look around enough, and now I'm trying to do it again and its still not working.

Recently I got a call from my best friend who goes to Fitchburg. She wants to transfer down to a school in Florida and wants me to go with her! How is that an offer that anyone could pass up? Florida is where I have wanted to go for a long time. Its actually where I want to move when I graduate. I am just too scared right now to leave my friends and family behind. So as appealing as that idea sounds to me right now is just not the right time.

So where does that leave me? I have no idea. I ended up running to an ATM that morning to take out the money. If I didn't pay the deposit and didn't find another school to go to I was screwed for next year. So I just payed it. I'm still going to look around at other schools, even though I have none in mind right now. We'll see what happens.
