I think it may be best to make your own way. That way, you're not beholden to anyone. Well, you'll be in debt to the government of Canada, but who isn't, right?
Sorry to hear about the guilt biznezz... bank of mom and/or dad often comes at high interest and once you're off that gravy train getting back on sucks.
Says the guy who'll likely be returning to his parent's doorstep when he needs a downpayment for a mortage. I'm hoping there's another way :S.
I found this delicious place that sells "tart" frozen yogurt, have you ever had that? It's delicious!
Good luck with going back to school, I've found that rigourusly pursuing scholarships is really the only way I can pay for mine .
And thank you for having me in your thoughts , it's so sweet of you to think of me while I'm going through this.
Haha ohhh the Bank of Dad. Sucks it didn't work out but at least when it's all said and done at least you'll have the satisfaction of having done it all independently. What are you going to school for?
