$5 to $10 transcript fee? Oh puh-leeze! That's nothing! Wanna hear something worse? Try $25. That's the fee I gotta pay for applying at RIT. To apply for RIT's graduate school program... it's $50! Now, tell me... is $5 really that "expensive"? It's worse just to put gas in the car!

Dennis- yes, i remember who you were talking about. i dont remember the orienation trip to universial studio, i thought it was at venice beach? anyway i missed a lot of fun there, had to do last minute shopping stuff for the apartment. :-/

TTT- this is elyse, it seems that we've never crossed path to meet. i missed the orientation trip and left the sorority probably before that football incident.

to be honest, i think you dont want to be strong person as you can be because you seemed to be smart but rather acted like dumb. i dont mean to be offensive, i dont know you personally. you have no idea how hard times i had to go through at my job, i have no degree (not yet) and ive been struggling to get one of my bosses to "SEE" in me that im not just different person.
the TCS woman who owns/ran a site about TCS, she became a doctor. this means you CAN DO IT TOO. im not giving it up, im going to have like god-knows-how-many 10th meetings about issues next friday with my boss. so im not giving it up, he finally gave better review on me and said something about me being in a higher position like being a senior in the department. im going to try to convince him to create some ideas with me to find a way how to work with me in a better way. hopefully this can help to let me to take an opportunity for promotional.
you cant just sit back and wait too long, you have to move on forward and fight for yourself! we're in 20th century, we have better opportunities and more options so not a lot of hearings have learned of that yet. we have to convince them that we're just deaf but not nothing nor dumb.
oh other hand, i was on SSI when i was in college until i dropped out and found a job several months later. to tell you truth, i feel SOOOOO much better being off SSI. i was able to buy my own car, tuition, all bills and insurance WITHOUT parents' support. i honestly do feel proud of myself and be able to take care of money of my own. i dont mean to be egoiscal but you have no idea what kind of feeling is this when you had all of your own responsibility without anyone supporting you. its like youre actually grown up.

about the transcript, i remember i requested transcript from CSUN for like $2 dollars but that was almost 2 years ago, i think.

Csun

I graduated from CSUN in, oh boy do I have to confess?, 1999. I majored in English/Credential (which means you can get your teaching credential if you take the exam and certain classes). CSUN's a good school. Nice area - LA rocks! Good people. NCOD (National Center on Deafness where they provide services for d/hh students) gave me quite a lot of opportunties - activities, part-time jobs, career library, deaf library, etc. The Deaf population isn't as big as RIT or Gallaudet but I made great friends during my years there.

Dennis, is that you??? You're married? This is Julie.

Hmm... in that case, it's probably $2.50 right now.

e??? you were hitting on Dennis??? Shame on you. Just kidding.

Okay I will try hard to get a job. I just needed the degree to break
the curse on my dad's side. It seems like I am the only one in my dad's side of the family got a college degree. It was very important to me.
Whew I got my first college degree in 1999... before my dad died.
My dad died in year 2000, while I was in Paris. I missed his funeral. But
at least he knew that he can't blame the WHITE people for holding
him back... I told my dad that his alcoholism is the one that holding
him back... and stop blaming the White men.

Now I am becoming more like my dad,, giving up hope and being hopeless.
I am sad that he is gone.

OKAY ENOUGH SOB STORY. I will go look for a job, e.

Well my point is... I don't think I should put down all the colleges I went
to... and I don't want to ask for transcripts. Yes I am cheap.
And also... too lazy.
