HELP me go to school!
Donation protected
Hi everyone
I want to be in school, I am going to Aveda institute (beauty schooling) and although I am fully capable of taking on loans and being in debt for half my life, having the support of friends and some family to help lower the cost would make me ever so grateful. ANYTHING HELPS. Next time you're about to toss your change from the Starbucks you got earlier that morning think DORIEN COULD USE THAT FOR SCHOOL! So here's the deal
Tuition $17,900
Kit fee $2,650
Registration fee $150.00
Total $20,700
So that seems like it's a lot but it's not that bad
If I start school at the ending of July, they take out the kit fee, leaving me at $17,900. With my Financial aid it leaves me at about $11,144. WHICH IS 100% doable with the right attitude and you fellas.
It's been almost 2 years and As some of you might know I left home on my own at just about 17. I wasn't accepted for being who I am, my parents kicked me out for being gay. I was born in Hawaii, living with many strangers, to bad cases, to living nowhere really at all. I flew myself to Oregon to start a new. With all I've gone through I know I'm not the only one who's faced this. I'm not upset with my parents, I'm not here to throw a pity party but without the support of a stable living situation or with parents to lean on I have been putting further schooling off for almost a year, it kills me not to go because I know I'm worth more than working at a Starbucks in a Fred Meyer. I have been pondering the thought of beauty school for quiet sometime and I know I want to do this, I feel I'll finally be able to express my creatity but in a different form than I originally had in mind. I have a few future goals in mind with this schooling. A thought I've been having is to do hair design for theatre companies, for those of you who know me theatre is my passion and to be styling hair in such forms of art would be my absolute dream job. I remember being in high school and all the guys wanted me to do their hair and even though it wasn't most the extravagant I loved every moment of it. I want to be the best. So please support me, help me discover myself and do what I love. Thank you. If you can't afford to donate simply sharing this post will help me so much
