I have a cat and we just paid august rent. I am a student and take about 18 credits a semester work 8 hours a week at 19.03 dollars an hour there is no where I can go and no one I can ask for help.What can I do to get through this next year ?  <response>: Some ideas: Take in a room-mate airbnb may actually give you more income depending on where you are Find a job where you can study work so you can put in more working hours security guard, babyhousepet sitting, etc. Can you be an RA on campus? Dont they get free housing?
