I HATE PEOPLE WHO ARE BASTARDS!

Ok, as some of you will soon know I have been dicked over by the financial aid office and Chase bank. I had applied for a loan of $25,000 for this school year well that has been cut down to size and I have only received $20,099 yeah... real nice of them isn't it? also Chase has me set up for 20 years of payments... 20 years! the interest alone when I'm done I'll have paid close to 5 times that. anyway...this weekend I'm still going to Loth even if it kills me.
I'm just tired of this over and over and over, I just want to go to Rome it's there within reach and I can't do it. Hell I barely made it to school this year. And yet I continue to wonder is it really worth it? going to college I mean? I'll be close to $100,000.00 in debt upon graduation. I have no real set-up for work after this so I'll be going off to Grad school which is gonna put me further n the hole. So really is it worth going into debt for a piece of paper that says "hey this guy isn't a complete arse!" I don't know. But I;m this far so I might as well find out.

Oh so, the cool part about my wand is....

It's made of: Yew
Yew is the Wood of Death. Used for its strength for bows in Greek times. The yew tree's branches grow into the ground, thus when the central trunk dies, the tree lives on as the branches become trees. It symbolizes transformation, great age, and reincarnation. Yew is especially good in spells involving spirits or raising the dead, and also in the dark arts, as well as in defense magic and shield charms.
Yew's personality is Enduring.
Element: Earth

The Core is: Kelpie Hair

Kelpie hair comes from the mane of a Kelpie, a water demon commonly found in Britton and Ireland, who often takes the shape of a horse. The most famous Kelpie is referred to by Muggles as the Loch Ness monster. Kelpie's are adaptable creatures, and thus the wand is a good core for most types of magic, but especially water magic.

I think that's rather fitting for me. Which really makes sense cause the wand chooses the wizard after all. Ha! or the Centaur in my case.

I got a wand!... now what?


Wood type: yew
Length: 11½ inches
Core: Kelpie Hair
