Classes Have Started And It’s A Bumpy Road Ahead (Financially)

Senior year doesn’t seem to be much of a difficult ride… so far. But, I am struggling for some income while expenses are rushing at me.

Jobs
I’ve kept my previous volunteering position in my university’s dental school but since my schedule seems to be quite lenient, I’m squandering for some part-time work in school. I went ahead and updated my resume and applied for several job openings but there are no responses yet. I’d be glad if I can even get a job that’ll provide just $50 per week.

Books
Even though I practice frugality when buying textbooks, there are times when it is not possible to do so. For example, today, one of my professors required the newest edition of a book with a publication year of 2009! Plus, there is a homework assignment due next week and I can’t get it for a lower price through Amazon.com because it won’t be delivered in time for me to complete the reading. Sadly, I had previously expected to be able to use the books from a friend, who took the same courses last year. Now, its seems improbable to have zero textbook expenses.
