The reason the US doesn't have good insurance plans is because the US sucks. That's why I plan to get the hell out of here sooner than later. I'm on my dad's insurance still, but only till I'm 22. I'm 19 now. (And I NEED the insurance, since I have Graves Disease and need to take meds for the rest of my life because of that and I have anixtey disorder which I'm still on meds for (and I probaly will for a while.)) So I'm rushing around looking for a job and going to college so I can get insurance and don't have to pay 5grand for my meds.
Pushing the insurance issue aside, that really sucks. Like someone else I think your mom would (or at least should try) to make room for you, temporarly. And if that doesn't work, why not try other family members or close friends? I hope everything works out for you.

That is some seriously cheap ramen. Processed cheese though is STILL expensive, as is tuna. It`s not that it`s that expensive as an item - it`s that it`s a really bad value. There are lots of foods out there that you could eat a lot more of for the same amount - or the same amount of for considerably less. Also - something I haven`t seen you mention - where are you living? How are you dealing with living arrangements? You may not like me, but if you`re really in a bad situation, I`ve been there so might be able to help you out.

Nishinakajima-Minamigata, is where i am living at the moment, and i have no money like at all literally like i can't afford to eat tonite. It doesn't matter im going to have to leave the country anyway, the hospital bill is $240 and theres no way i can get that in 2 days with anything i'm doing at the moment
the only way i can think of is to find 10 students for private lessons within the next 2 days which seems pretty hard considering i would have no idea where to look.

Did you get sick after eating cheap food? If so you now owe $240 for the price of some cheap tuna, sorry sea chicken.
I was given all sorts of free stuff in Japan and by stuff I mean food and drink. And also many people would buy me things when I joined them at the bar. The Japanese are nice like that and if you are friendly with them they will fill your belly for a good story. I never needed the stuff as I had enough money but was always surprised at how generous the people were. One night I had about 8 beers and a great deal of yakatori and big bowl of ramen and had a great laugh with the guy next to me. I asked for the bill at the end of the night only to be told that Taka san had shouted it for me. I bowed so low and so many times to Taka san as I left that it took me a good five minutes to say goodbye. I dont know what you are doing to get so much bad luck but i think you should stop it right away.

odonata, its obviously my choice that i want all of this i mean who wouldn't want all this bad luck............=_=........no but seriously wtf dude are you high...or on crack...or wat...... no seriously i thought to myself hey i know what ill do i'll save up some money then i'll go have a heap of bad luck in japan and waste all my hardwork for the pure reason of me having a bad time...i really want to shoot you dear god if you wern't dropped on your head as a child you have sniffed paint/drank turpentine for the past 6 years...
No they usually don't fill your belly for a good story they normally do it for a free english lesson i have done that aswell and they give me presents but presents don't pay the bills they might give me cavities or a good meal or sometimes a good read but yeh, i get shouted beer all the time at pubs and clubs(discos as they call them) I also get free entry to some clubs because they like foreigners there because all the jappy girls want to go there to meet foriegners which attracts the guys aswell but the fact is to find english speakers you usually have look very hard or get them drunk...or post an ad to teach them... Ugh! my head is sore from trying to comprehend what posessed you to write that...do you think im some sort of cosmic being which can control the turnout of luck? WHAT THE HELL...im just going to stop thinking about it because its just making me angry... Also odonata were you travelling or were you living... or travelling...
