So i'll live and work (at mc donald's) for 3 months.I'm excited to go! but i have doubts... i'd like to look for one more job because at M.D. i'll not earn too much.. is it easy or hard to have one more job there?? and what about clothes...are expensive??
well I'll live without parent's help, and I'll rent an apartament for myself...

apologies for my spelling mistakes...

Will you be here on a student visa? If so, are you allowed to work in the USA with such a visa? I'm not that familiar with visas so that's why I'm asking because I know certain visas don't allow foreigners to work in the USA.

If you are allowed to work here then having two part-time jobs isn't unusual. It's just a matter of finding a second job that will fit into your schedule. Personally I think it is easier to find a part-time job than a full-time job.

I don't know what "expensive" is to you but you can find clothing at all price ranges. You can find brand new clothing at stores like Old Navy or Ross for less than $15. You can also find clothing at second hand stores. It depends what you want to buy but jeans and tshirts aren't expensive.
