I think you have three options here:

3. Play the lottery.

I have no luck

2. Take out a loan.

done + 2000 in debt

1. Get a job.

done it is shit

If you've been to college and you're only 2,000 dollars in debt, I'd say you made out like a bandit!!! Count your blessings!!! And fear not: most jobs you have at twenty years old will be crap. Hang in there, try to get some sort of an education and it will get better.

One more thing: do you absolutely need to go to a four-year-college? Most people I know have done quite well going to a tech or buisness college. Myself included. Either way, take a typing course. You'll never get anywhere if you can't do up a decent resume' or report.

I like others to know what I am talking about; ergo, the self quote. But I hate it when I misspell; as it destroys my credibility as the Imperial Grand Wizard of the Royal Pain in the Ass Grammar Nazis.
