<p>I need to know if someone has been in this predicament. i'm thousands of miles away from home and I have nothing...absolutely nothing. I moved to this place thinking that I would be able to go to school and work part time. I started out good, going to class and everything, even walking from my house (4 mile walk, daily). I started looking for work as well, but no luck. eventually, getting to school everyday and having enough energy to stay awake in school became too difficult, so i slowly stopped going, especially since i had no way of getting to school. I met a girl and became so infatuated she would end up using me for all of my resources. Now, the new semester is here and i'm a wreck. I have nothing, all of my identification is missing, i have no phone to make contacts with job references or my parents even. I struggle to find food everyday, and I haven't seen a doctor in almost 3 years. I wasn't told that college would be like this, this is a nightmare. I just want guidance right now, what do I do? My parents aren't financially stable and I have a lot of brothers and sisters. The only thing my parents say when i ask for help is "we can't afford it. you decided to go a thousand miles away to go to school, now you have to deal with it." please help me.</p>
<p>look into local churches, they should have some resources available to point you in the right direction. Likewise approach your school, and tell them of your situation.</p>
<p>You lack all this, yet you have a computer, and choose to go to an internet forum based on college advice, not self-help? -sniffs- Do I dare say I detect a hint of ■■■■■…?(;</p>

<p>Ever heard of a library?</p>
<p>Then maybe he should ask the librarian and reduce the time he spends waiting, homeless.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Ask the librarian for what?</p>
<p>I find this really hard to believe, I mean he created his account on the 28th of august… If you are really going through this, I would advise you seek homeless rehabilitation centers around your area</p>
<p>I find this incredibly easy to believe. I suggest you follow icedragon’s advice. People will help you if you talk to them and explain your situation. So do it.</p>
<p>Also contact your local consulate about your ID, it is very important you get that replaced.</p>
<p>Ask the librarian for advice. Sorta implied lol…</p>
