I'm going to be a college freshman at Syracuse University, and I have to pay nothing for the tuition (I got a really good financial aid package)...however, I have no money at all to buy stuff for my dorm...even though I have a job
My dad can't help me at the moment because he quit his job about 2 weeks ago (because of the poor conditions and low payment) and he's still looking for another job (well, he already found one, but only starts working next week, & I'll have left by then) so, at the moment we're using my paychecks to pay the bills (which I really don't mind, to be honest)
I won a $1000 scholarship but won't receive the check until mid-September...
What should I do? I barely have 1 week left to get stuff together, and, although my dad told me that he'll send me the money once I get to college (as soon as he can), I'm feeling really depressed...
What if I need money on the spot for God-knows-what? What am I to do?
Can you plz give me some suggestions?
