Don't push me cause I'm close to the edge, I'm trying not to lose my head.

The economy is going to kill me if it doesn't change in the next year. I applied for summer jobs but heard nothing back. Yea I know I have no experiance. That's why I need a job. And more importantly to help my famliy! Buy my own school supplies and/or clothes. Help with the small things we need. Sometimes there's barely food here! My mom's paycheck only covers the house payments and it doesn't help that we've all been sick lately. It doesn't help with the previous medical bills, college payments, I can barely feed my cats. It doesn't help that my parents are recently seperated and now my dad has to help two places. I know things don't work instantaneously but, with Obama I thought things would change and it's all getting worse. Everything is driving me crazy I can't even work at my mom's friends salon because business is so bad. I don't even think about asking if I can go to the movies because I know it's not gonna happen. I really wish I could get a job but I can't expect it in this economy! Money makes the world go round and if it didn't exist neither would dreams. Is the economy driving you crazy too?

I get what you mean about asking to go to places
I have so much time off and i feel bad that i go out to eat and to places so much
i got a job for the summer and all i can tell you that would help is to network
find a friend of a friend of a friend who owns a business that can put in a good word for you
:) good luck!
