I knew that college would be expensive and so did my parents but I had no idea how expensive it would really be. I know my dad probably stays awake all night because of the cost of school and my sister will be going to college next year. I feel horrible. I'm considering taking out a student loan. My dad says I shouldn't worry and that he could afford to send both his daughters to college. How can he do that? I went to the financial aid office and they gave me some forms to fill out but also told me to be careful for the amount I ask for because I might ask for too much. They also sat down and spoke to me about things. They were really very nice This is so hard. A student load scares me. It'll take years to pay it back and what if I don't get a good job after school? Is this what being an adult is really like? If so I want to be like Peter Pan and never grow up.
