Hi, My name is Melody, I am a single mom of three wonderful kids, I have been going to school full time for the past three years and finally graduated from a community college with my Associates Transfer degree (3.5 GPA).  I will be transferring to a four year university in the Fall of 2007 to complete a two year program to recieve my bachelors degree in Human Services.  Because the program is designed for a fall entry I can not start til then.  I do recieve student financial aid and student loans to pay for my schooling, and because it does provide for housing, transportation and some other living expenses, I am able to budget tightly each quarter to get my family through to the next quarter.  (I also am on a housing program which helps with my rent, but not the utilities.)  I am currently taking a class (A computer class), even though I graduated already, but it is required for the Human Services program I am going into.  With that and my children, it is hard to find a job that offers the flexibility I need.  I am terrible at asking for help, but I am also one of the most giving people, which is why I have chosen to go into a field of education where I can help people.  Anyways, I need help!  I can't get through the summer unless I can find a part time flexible job now, which I am working on, but in the mean time, I am slipping further and further behind in my bills (electric, phone, gas, etc.)  To make matters worse, the father of my 7 year old twins rarely works so I can never count on his child support, which I am currently not receiving as of last month.  So if anybody would be willing to help me at this point of need in my life, I would be forever grateful.  Please feel free to contact me and ask me any questions you may have.
