Free Application for Federal Student Aid…FAFSA Frenzy

2/25/10 Subtitle:”The Frenzy”

I started my frenzy at a funeral.  The funeral was for our family friends Grandmother.  The service was very peaceful and I was grateful for the opportunity I had to sing at it with my family.  Following the funeral, and still dressed up in my nice clothes I went and got my picture taken to submit to the LDS Church Office along with my LDS mission papers.  Wish me luck! Following my pictures I went to a voice lesson and worked with my student teacher.

Here is where the true frenzy begins. 

During my voice lesson I was still in my suit from the services this morning.  I quickly went to the bathroom to change.  As I was leaving the bathroom, my nose played Moses and parted the red sea. “Not again!”

My nose would not stop bleeding and I needed to get to work at the Weber State Davis Campus to help students and the community fill out the FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid).

I did the only thing I could and clogged it with TP.  In my car I looked at my directions to campus and was on my way.  My nose would not stop its madness so I had to refill.  While doing so I missed my exit, freaked out, and lost my way in South Weber. The only way I got out of my mess was by calling Sky King, my Friend and Advisor.  He guided me to safety at the campus.

Finally at the school I thought I had it made.  I was five minutes early, ready to go, and…now lost.  The room we were assigned to was being used by tax advisors and the room I was told to go to had NUAMES parent teacher conf. in them.

Jokes on me…The tax people were doubled in the room with those helping with the FAFSA.  After fifteen minutes of running around I got to where I needed to be and I started helping those who had questions with their FAFSA.  What a Frenzy Friday!

Have you filled out your FAFSA? Let me know if you have any questions about it.  I am no professional but, if you have any general questions feel free to comment. For more serious questions call FAFSA at 1.866.514.8938
