Sad Tidings....Very Sad

I wish I posted this under better news, but alas, 'tis not so.
 I was staying at school for a sociology project (more news on that later)with Spain, Ishy, Ash, and (oh boy, a new name!) Carolina, the Italian exchange student. As Carolina and I just finished wrapping up our project results, I remembered that I needed to ask Spain on some info on our trip to Sakura-con (As I have been ranting on about for ages).
She had a weird look on her face and asked me if I was going to hurt her. Asking her why, but receiving no answer, I asked Ishy to hold me back and asked again. She said we may not be going to Seattle. Asking (very calming actually) why, she said it was because of grades. Here is now our conversation, paraphrased slightly.
Spain: It's because of grades.
Me: You're a freaking senior! How is it because of grades?
Spain: I get behind-
Me: Even I'm not that behind yet!
Spain: Well it's also due to money.
Me: Well you recently said you got a hundred so how much do you have?
Spain: About $200.
Me: And we need about $300...
Spain: Yeah...
Me: *sigh* Can't you take out a loan with or parents or something?
Spain: No...We're saving the money for college- Oh come one please don't cry!
Me: I'm not gonna cry.
Spain: Please don't cry, I'll feel really guilty!
Me: *Wipes eyes and looks up*
Spain: Now that face is really making me feel bad!
Me: Eehhh....

   At this point she hugged me and I cried just a little bit more. As Ishy was here for a backrest (since we only found a bench to do our work) he let me use his shoulder for a pillow for a little. After this, we raised our spirits by her saying that "Now you have to move to Austria!"
We are still going to make our "Boss Spain and Chibi-Romano Making Churros" video. So that is one thing to look forward to as is my Frankenstein monologue I'm doing for a school project.
So let me wallow in some of my sorrow as I try to recover some of my happy Usagi-ness. (Yes that is a word!)
So ciao for now....
