Hey applesweet... though you claim you're not as sweet as we
think, i beg to differ~ ^_^
From your post, i can see that you're still very optimistic and
rather happy about your life, and that's a very good thing! Even
though i'm not plagued with half your problems, i can't seem to
find even 20% of your enthusiasm. I admire you for that.
Lets look again at the list of your problems.
1) Alimony. $1,000 a month is truly a lot. Stop dragging this any
more. Give the Legal Aid Bureau a call and see how they can
help.
2) Stress because you cannot enjoy what you earn. This is directly
linked to 1).
3) Tuition. Its easier to teach primary school kids english or
chinese, and also easier to find students for that, than for
Japanese, i believe.
4) You sound like you spend moderately, that's not too bad. I do
know that sometimes we just have to spend on something, and the
urge is higher for a girl, so i don't blame you.
5) Like what the others said, unless you're really a strikingly
beautiful girl, you had better not step into the modelling world,
its too crowded anyways.
6) You have a good and supporting boyfriend... how nice... quite a
lot of girls would give a lot to be in your position as it
is..
7) Notes. Try getting to know some seniors. Most of them have
already photocopied, or have the notes/books ready. Besides, its
just rotting in their posession, many would glady give them away,
or sell them for a small fee.
