InternationalStudentLoan.com is beyond frustrating.

So, for those of you who don't already know, I'm using InternationalStudentLoan.com (from here on referred to as "these people") to finance this little adventure of mine. In order for them to send me the money, they've got to verify that I am, in fact, going to be attending school in the UK and not using their money to make or use drugs or something. It's hard for me to tell what their idea of the worst-case-scenario would be at this point.
Anyway, I've sent these people literally every. single. thing. the University of Strathclyde has ever sent me, and nothing has proven to be good enough. I even asked the nice folks in the registrar's office to write me a completely original letter saying, more formally of course, "Yup, she's really coming over here to study, and yup, we're a real school". And yet, these people still want more. WHAT DO YOU WANT FROM ME, InternationalStudentLoan.com?? A letter inked in the dean of students' blood? My firstborn's firstborn? What?!

Anyway, that's how that's going. I have no doubt it will work itself out.

Hmm...what else? I just scheduled my last American dentist appointment. Pretty exciting stuff.
