My Two-Cents Spin-
Life can be messy for us college students but we have nothing to truly worry about accept a higher tuition. Today, I tried put my self in the shoes of the "resident" we are working on in NOLA . I'm not even close.....
*The government has left the citizens to finish, unfinished work. I work now to put copper wire back in my house because it has been stolen two times, I just hope it does not happen again. I had to buy a dog to protect my house from robbers. A dog I cant take good care of because I work and live outside of the area. I have to work to pay for drywall, window, doors, and even more. I would like a new car too but the house comes first because I'm paying for rent. I would move but this is my HOME, this is where my job is, this is where my family/ friends live. My grandfather built this house or the one that was here. I just want this nightmare to end.* Just an idea of a small bit of what our home owner does/ may have on their mind every day. This is my third trip down to this area and rebuilding is going so slow that another storm could hit and it would look no different, almost! I am about to give up on this government helping the common person not because its political but because its the right thing to do. But out of the fog Nola's culture is alive and well, THANK GOD!!!
