Going back to school....

I seriously want to go back to school. I want to learn PHP, XHTML, and other programming languages so I can take web design to a whole new level. There's only one problem. It is stinking EXPENSIVE to go to school!! Yeah, you probably already knew that. :)

Everyone says start with FAFSA. (which happens to stand for Free Application for Federal Student Aid). Aid my butt. The only thing I qualified for are loans. A loan from the government? No thank you!!!

So, I posted on Facebook for some more ideas and scholarships and grants came up. Do you know how many websites there are on grants? Wow. A person could go nuts trying to find a few to throw together to pay for their education. It's almost a full time job all in itself!

The school I want to go to is Full Sail University. I'm interested in their online Bachelors of Science in Web Design and Development. Once I'm done with that I'll go for a Masters in Internet Marketing. Toss in a teaching certificate and I'm golden.

WHACK! Wait, what was that? Oh right, reality just hit me smack dab in the middle of my face. I still have to find money. Well, wish me luck... I'm off to apply for grants. :)
