Default I'm Homeless

Long story short, I can't apply for university housing and now I have to find an apartment within the next 3ish weeks or I can't go to school. I'm basically homeless. FML.

Why can't you get university housing?

Hey, oh no, that's not a nice situation too be in. Surely you'll be able too find somewhere you can stay, but like Thomas says, how come you can't get housing?

I was originally going to live with 3 of my friends this year, however we had a falling out. By the time everything was resolved, the deadline for renewal had already passed.

So I went to see two complexes owned by the same company today and decided on one that was really nice and had benefits I could use. I'm in the process of talking to my Dad about it. He thinks the rent is too much and doesn't trust that I can chip in.

it may sound really bad, but get a mid sized truck, get a cap, and live in the cap... I'll see if i cant dig up the article on a guy that was in exactly your situation... he saves tons of money, and also is quite a bit healthier...

Oh no, that's awful!

When one of my friends couldn't get uni accommodation, she lived out of a very cheap hotel for a few weeks. You could try that until you can find a permanent place?

I just signed a lease for the apartment. Dad is disgruntled, but hey, I have a place to live now!
