SOOOOOOOOO...... As many of you know (if anyone ever reads my journals anymore), I'm going to school to be a massage therapist (which is totally awesome since I can take it practically anywhere). But it's technically considered a medical profession: ie I'm spending approx. $1500 a term, not a year, a TERM. The classes themselves are a struggle to get through (latin is becoming a second language without me trying), and I'm stressed beyond belief just trying to get started. These are trying times so I may not be able to get a job until I'm licensed... which is at least three terms away since I have to get through the first year of the program and then go to Salem to face the massage board (if I could draw a funny picture as well as I would to show you how much I'm scared out of my mind at this). How facing the massage board has been described to me is like a test to decide if you'll face paradise or your doom.... I am that freaked out about it... AND IT'S AT LEAST NINE MONTHS FROM NOW!!!!!!! The Oregon Massage Board is one of the most strict groups rule makers in the entire USofA, no joke. I is le scared.

Anywho, this rant is about how I have insufficient funds and need as much help as I can get to get through the next two/three years. So if anyone local has anything local that they're willing to pay me for (any pay that's within reason of the job offered is fine) let me know. Any amount of work (small, large, online, offline, whatever) is a good offer and I'll let you know if I can help you out). I feel horrible and quite low on the food chain for asking this of anybody, but desperate times call for desperate measures. So, can anyone help?
