I gave up on my quest thread. I just go by my Wishlist now. ^_^;;

Oh go... no way. No bloody way. Does it ever stop?
I needed €3600 for my flight attendant training. Last month I had like €3200. I thought the study finances I received each month when I did my other study would stop in June, but as if it was sent by the angels I also received it in July. So I was super-duper happy, I didn't know how else to gather that last few hundred. It was a perfect fit.
And now I just heard from an ex-classmate that she also received it back then, and now received word from that she has to pay the July payment back. I know that instance, DUO, very very well. Not doing as they say results in mountain-sized fines. But I already paid the training that will start next month so I'm totally broke, I've got like 89 cents. And since I am now going to a private school I have no right for study finances anymore, so that means DUO is gonna do every little thing possible to ruin me >.<"
It's the devil in disguise, I'm telling you! They're supposed to help students, give out study finances and free public transport cards. But at the same time every student shits their pants for them because they make it so bloody hard to get anything done, practically impossible, and it's really like they are out to get you... how many students haven't got debts with them for years because they made a mistake like that? I have no idea how I'm gonna have to solve this once I myself receive that dreaded letter. Bloody imbeciles.

I hope so too, but knowing DUO, I'm gonna receive the fine before the warning. >>

Sadly DUO has got nothing to do with jobs, just public schools after high schools :(
They seriously couldn't care less about what happens after a student finishes one of them. They only care about whether you graduate or not. They hope not of course, that means you have to pay everything back. >>

That really bites. :mcsad: I'm glad that with my scholarship I didn't have to pay anything back unless I failed a class (which luckily I didn't :qhehe: ) since mine was for the top 10% of my graduating class in high school. :qhehe: And I think the year I graduated from my community college they terminated the scholarship program except for those already on it that kept their grades up. One of the reasons why my one friend is jealous that I had the program and she didn't. :qoops:

My brother did loose his scholarship, but I don't think he had to pay it all back, just a fine for flunking his classes. :qsweat:

Well it's supposed to be like that here too. And I didn't. I graduated. This is just a mistake from their side which I am going to suffer from. :mcmeh:

Nope, no plans as usual.

I'm going to be working on a custom pet to submit for October in hopes of making a little bit more money from doing so for that site. >>; I'm trying to help out a friend with starting a custom species on the site, but I need to get a really expensive item first to make my pet to be the other founder of the species. :qhehe:
