i got the money!!

well my grandparents have been paying for my college tuition out of the pocket since freshman year and that was all fine and dandy but now my grandfather is building a business out of his pocket no loans or n-ething....now that he is building his business money has gotten tight.....my grandparents say that we r on a budget now when i ask to get a job my grandfather tells me no that i need to focus on school but im like at least i will be able to get stuff on my own with out having to ask u guys....so a little while ago i went to the financial aid office and asked about how could i be an independent and they told me how....when i told them i was doing it they were real weary of free money from the government that didnt have to be paid back(older blacks r really weary of the government) in which i dont blame them but once i got them to see that i was doing this for them they decided that i could still do it.....yesterday i got my award money which tells me i was accepted as an independent student so now i can give my grandparents a little bit of extra money in their pockets which im so happy for b/c they have already done so much for me so the least i can do is give back in my own little way
