winning scholarships for college is so difficult i hate life i just want a good education and NOT drain my entire bank account

my mom just told me how i should’ve omitted something from my fafsa so i could’ve gotten more financial aid money and now i feel like a dumbass

like i know paying $3,000 for a semester at a 4 year private college is soooooo low compared to other kids but she keeps comparing me to one of her friend’s daughter who is paying about $2,700 every semester at a 4 year private school BECAUSE they omitted this one piece of info
