Update

So things in my life has been alright. School is going magically. My grades are looking magnificent. However, I'm still paying on my tuition therefore I'm broke everyday of my life. On top of that, my boyfriend is surely showing his behind. I can go deep into that story but I think I would just get mad all over again.

On a good note...my birthday is approaching quickly. JULY 24TH. Yayyyy!!! Unfortantely, it wont be that special this year. I'll be stuck up at school. All my friends are back at home and everybody has to work. UGH!! I had plans but as usual...they all fell through. I won't really had cards up on my dresser like all my other birthdays. I won't have a cake because no one is going to buy me one and I can't afford to buy one. I'll probably be sicking back doing some type of writing or watching movies. Sucks! But hey, thats life sometimes.

Any who, I'm blessed therefore I shouldn't been complaining like this. Let get back to cooking before I accidentally burn the dorm down. I'll be back soon.

Car Insurance For College Students

While you are packing extra long sheets, the right laptop, and other electronics for your college-bound freshman, add auto insurance to your checklist. Whether your student is taking one of the family cars, his or her own set of wheels to campus, or is going to be without wheels, it will affect the family's auto insurance. While you are setting up final dental appointments, call your insurance company and find out how your insurance picture changes when your child squeals out of the driveway on the way to the university. Taking the time to do so could mean a few extra bucks in your family pocketbook plus the assurance that you are protecting your child away from home.

Location, Location
Your family auto insurance policy will most likely cover a car that your child takes to college as long as the vehicle is registered with you, the parent, as owner. However, the car's new locale might make a difference in your premiums, so it is important that the insurance company be notified that the car will be garaged at another location. If your child will now be living in an urban area, for instance, your premiums may rise. Insurance companies rely on statistics to set rates and they will look at the accident and theft statistics for that area when calculating a premium that could be lower or higher depending on the statistics.
Grades Matter
The student with wheels on campus can also lower their premiums by hitting the books. Manyinsurance companies will lower premiums for students with a B-average or better. There are reductions for taking defensive driving courses as well. Check with your respective insurance company to get all the reductions available.

Without Wheels
Depending upon your policy, you could lower your premium if your college-bound student does not take a car to school, because some insurers will reduce rates for drivers attending school at least 100 miles away from home.

Policy Ownership
Insuring a car in your child's name is expensive. You can count on adding 50 percent for a female and 100 percent for a male under 25. You will need to check on the insurance requirements in the state where your child will attend school to be sure your current policy concurs with state insurance laws. Do make sure your child has auto insurance on his or her vehicle, however, whether it's through your policy or per their own. An accident by an uninsured driver can haunt them the rest of their lives and ruin their credit rating for a very long time. Uninsured drivers can lose their license plates, incur stiff fines and sometimes jail time.

Ferris State University

As I wake up for the morning and prepare for class, I thank GOD that I ended up at the school I'm at now. I couldve chosen a lot of schools but I think I made the right choice. Many people look at my school as a party school but there in reality there is so much more to Ferris State. They offer so many wonderful programs and the learning experience is one of a kind. I just want to slightly expose everybody to the real Ferris.
