Answer 1

You need to get your finances together so you are successful in school.  What is important, your independence or your schooling.  Priorities... throw the cell phone away.  Do you really need to live alone in your own apartment?  

Instead of asking the relatives for cash, ask if you can live with them for the duration of your college career.  Find a higher paying or second job and just because you missed the deadline for applying for fin aid doesn't mean you cant still apply and sit out a semester to get your life back together.

Answer 2

honestly, try finding a bartending job at a nice place where you can make decent money on only 1 or 2 nights a week.  that may be what i end up doing.  i hate to do it because i have kids, and don't feel that i belong in a bar scene, but if i can make enough money to have extra time with my kids while i'm also in school, that may be what i'll do.
