You have my sympathy dear.

It is good that you don't waste time and money as your friends do, that will make graduating come that much sooner.

It is too bad about being rushed into the lease, sometimes things don't go our way. Perhaps you could find a shelter or even a vet office you could volunteer for ? They are usually glad to have help walking dogs or doing light cleaning tasks. It's not the same, but it might help the time go by faster.
