Mostly career and money-related. Finally was able to finish my degree after having one thing after another fall through for getting the last half credit taken care of. A year and a half after I walked. So I guess I should be happy for that...but it's really more embarrassing than anything else.

There's been consistent financial problems with the school. Losing checks, not processing things, charging me things that they shouldn't have....just crazy. Career has just absolutely stalled. Currently working an unpaid internship that I hate just to have something on my resume. Been trying to break into the industry I have a degree in for a year now, and it's been nothing but missed connections, people not getting back to me, rejection, and frustration. I put an incredible amount of personal time into molding myself for this particular career area...since it's something I have a passion for. It feels useless now and I have literally no idea what I would do if it doesn't work out.

I've been basically broke for the last year and half, and it's putting serious strain on my mental and emotional health. It's just been a train wreck of a year, there's a million more things that I don't even feel like listing. 1 step forward and 2 steps back? Try 1 and 20.
