Would you assist me untie the knot with my Student Loan ?

Auckland

Well needless to say, I entered an arranged marriage with the system when I first landed in New Zealand as a refugee from Syria. I truly believed it was my only choice - to get in a university and finish what I have started overseas. So here I was doing the best I could to enter The University of Auckland with the dream that soon I will be an indepandant, income earning woman that can support herself without the control of her family. At the time I felt super grateful to have government support to pursue this ambition, and I still am grateful for that opportunity!

4 years of studying Bachelor of Property were an adventure of trying so f***ing HARD, as I was slowly finding my passion and soul gravitating towards Circus art, modelling, music, dance and acroyoga.

I started listening and following my heart more and more, finding joy, and myself through experiencing life I have only tasted before.

I graduated YAAY !! and worked in a property management office for 90 days - doing my work and going home wasn't enough for them, I wasn't the employee that stays after acting social and having drinks - Yup I totally didn't belong to that environment !! They released me just before we enter a contract together, at the end of the trail period.

And since then, I have been following my heart in all its expansive adventures. Playing music, singing, dancing, meeting new life pathways and growing through it all - with the deep intention of contributing to the free evolution of the collective.

Genuinely speaking   16 August 2023

I got to the mark of $1133 in my fundraiser to repay my student loan -

They paid me the money at the end of the month

Did I pay it to the loan ?

NO — and I feel bad for several reasons

- You donated for the purpose of my student loan

- I let you down by not delivering it there

However, at that point I was financially on the edge trying to sustain myself.

So the money went into essential expenses, that seems more urgent than a Student loan.

My lesson: when I collect a resource for a specific goal, I stick to it no matter what.

My promise: That I will double the donated amount and pay it towards my debt as soon as I can.

Backstory: it is a challenge for me to keep on top of the human life tasks ,limitations in my memory, organisation and focus - it is a continuous practice and it gets spent on Art and social relations most of the time. That when I need to do my personal capitalist tasks - i lag.

Very hard to right this , but it’s your money I used- and it’s only fair to be transparent with its usage.

Thank you for your trust and generosity

And I am sorry for not focusing on the task in hand. I will continue to do my best, learn and grow that capacity ♥️

P.S: please be in touch if you want to discuss anything at all that comes up for you :)
