Good for you for giving community college a shot. Don't let running out of money stop you, though. I'm sure you qualify for some hefty financial aid. You won't have to come up with any cash--you just get student loans, which you don't have to pay on until 6 months after you graduate. You can even borrow enough to pay for some minimal living expenses. If you chose to get married before you graduate, there's married student housing at most universities. After you graduate, you'll be able to get a good job so you can afford your loan payments. I take my classes on the internet so I don't have to worry about being too depressed to go class. I just do my school work when I can.
I don't mean to preach at you. I just did it the hard way, and when I look back, I think about how stupid I was for not exploring all of my options.
