Quick update because that's the sort of thing I do.
I have a meeting tomorrow afternoon with a sort of a "holy shit I'm literally going to starve to death if you don't give me funding" sort of person at the university. I have printed out a bank statement, a diagram of my budget, a screenshot of the tuition I owe and a calculation of how I'm going to run out of money to feed myself. This is necessary because the requirements I need to meet in order to qualify for any funding are literally summed up (in his email) as "an inability to buy food or pay rent". I think I qualify as that, the problem is that I only qualify as such assuming that I pay my tuition, which he will want because he works for the school, but if the school is giving me money that negates the paying tuition doesn't it? Anyway, I've got my fingers crossed, if this fails I have to start mailing letters to government organizations, and trying to find personal loans.
It's been 2 weeks since I started to eat healthy again, my only lapse being a slice of pizza last Friday because someone in the office bought pizza for us (and I'm not enough of a dick to tell them I won't eat it). I feel alright, although I am a lot more tired and hungry than usual (probably more the fault of stress about money than anything). I am pretty much subsisting on Oatmeal, Bananas, Apples, Tuna, Yogurt, Vegetables, Pita, Bread, Fish and Chicken at this point. Actually, not pretty much, that's precisely all I've eaten. Appearance-wise though, I am back down to the weight/size I was in at the point when I had to give up last time (fucking November), so that's good.
Anyway, I'm off to finish work, go to TaekwonDo, worry about money and then do entirely too much more homework. Ja
