I just need to rant, feel free to ignore me

Every fucking time things seem to start going the way I want them to, every fucking time things begin to start looking up, some shit comes crashing down to rain on my parade.
I've been sitting in this fucking cage of a room, staying with some family who let me have a room and a bed (that's all there is, really, a room, and a bed. I'm not complaining because it's better than the streets, but that isn't the point.
I'm leaving Alaska to go to college at Arizona State University. I could leave now or I could wait until August if I felt like it. I really wanted to stay up here through the summer, because Alaska is a fucking awesome place to be in the summer. What I'd need to do that, is a decent job right now. The kind of job I want provides housing and food, and this isn't too hard to come across in the summer, but lucky for me I need this job right now when the job market is shit.
So I came up with a great idea, hey I'll take the money from my tax return and from a few unemployment checks, along with a little bit of money I can earn in less respectable ways, and take a road trip down to Phoenix, and stay with my parents for a bit until school starts. Sounds great doesn't it? Plans were beginning to form, money was starting to be raised, and arrangement to meet people are under way. I was planning to leave around the beginning of next month.
Today my girlfriend calls me crying. She just got into a fight with her best friend (literally, my girlfriend was trying to pull her out of the car to punch her in the face). I try to offer her what comfort I can, we both know her best friend is a complete bitch and yadda yadda. She starts feeling better. She calls me back an hour later. Now she had just talked to her mom. Apparently her mom has too many bills stacking up, and they might lose the house. Needless to say at this point in the day my girlfriend is a fucking wreck.
She's known that I'm going to be leaving for college for 4 months now. Although she never really came to terms with it, she knew it was inevitable and accepted it more or less. Today she tells me if I leave next month she doesn't think she could mentally handle it (she actually said those exact fucking words) because of all the stress she's going through. She recently got enrolled back into school (she dropped out last year) and is trying to get her diploma. Her mom already works really hard (although the whole family spends too much damn money on pot) and now has to get a second job.
I think I have enough shit going on with myself. I don't have a home or any money (for another 9 days). Honestly she's about all I have up here right now and I love her family, I can't stand seeing this happen.
Someone should smoke me a bowl

That sucks man. What are your options? Get the hell to Arizona and quickly. It sounds harsh as hell, but you gotta do what's best for you, or you'll regret it in the long run. Get out and get out now.
