I'd really love to know the name of the music playing in the background. Any ideas?

I am hoping someone might be able to help me or at least share some options for what I might be able to do. I recently graduated from college about 6 months ago. I joined a volunteer program that is not through Peace Corps or any other recognized official United States service. I am volunteering through a program in Israel known as MASA. This program was offered for 5 months with an optional extension of 5 months, so 10 months total. I decided to stay continuing my volunteer service learning program.

I had been hoping for the best but expecting the worst -- and the worst did happen. And I wasn't sure of a backup plan.

My student loan is through Citibank. I have a private loan through them as well as a Federal Stafford Loan and an Unsubsidized Federal Stafford Loan. I knew my grace period would be up after 6 months so I requested a deferment. After speaking with someone from the Citibank Student Loan corporation, they said that I would be eligible for a forbearance request. The woman I spoke with -- and I don't recall her name -- said it likely wouldn't be a problem. This was probably a little less than a month ago. They sent the Forbearance Request forms to me, which I had a relative in the US scan for me. I filled it out and after figuring out how I could get it back to the company on time, they emailed me stating (and I have a copy) I could rescan it and send it as an attachment through email. I even included the links to the attached documents. After about a week of sending it three times, they kept returning a message of: We are unable to receive your attached message, please send it via fax.

I was unable to get to a working fax machine so I rescanned it and sent it to my relative, who printed it out and sent it via USPS. I had the letter sent in the beginning of the week and at the end of the week, it was returned. They sent a letter back saying that my forbearance request -- for all three loans -- was denied. The message for all 3 loans was: "Your Private Loan Forbearance Application was received beyond the 30-day limit. As previously explained, your application must have been received within 30 days from the date in which we spoke with you on the phone."

I admit that I cannot recall exactly when the date was that I spoke to them on the phone. It doesn't state in the application when the date was. I had gone through problems with them for about a week before they would even accept the application from me. I am in another country so I explained to them my situation might take a little more time.

My first payment is required in 2 days -- March 9, 2011 and I cannot make this payment. So, my forbearance request has been denied. I do not want to go into default. I do not have money in the bank to begin paying any type of monthly sum. Even if I return to the United States early which would require a change of flight plans and dropping out of the program I am in early, I would still have to find a job, which will take time, and that would prevent me from paying back my student loans immediately anyway. So my plans were to stay here for the remainder of the semester, return home, get a job, and begin paying back my student loans after my forbearance period was up. But I am not sure what to do with this dilemma - as I did not expect to get denied.

Does anyone have any advice for how to handle this situation?

Trying to relive my childhood, and really actually find the music theme it played. I can't remember the exact title, but I remember the introduction was basically of a kid sitting in his room or something like that, and he hears something in his backyard, some type of alien perhaps, or something like that, and all of a sudden, there's a hole in his backyard and he slips and falls down into the Earth, and somehow gets suited up and fights. Can't remember what he was fighting.. aliens, perhaps? It was only 1 player.

I don't think it's Mega Man.

Also, extra credit: There was another game that I can't remember, but you got to be an ostrich or some bird and you could jump high and you could kill things, I think, by shooting or jumping on them .. I forgot the rest. It was two players.

It was not Duck Hunt or Bubble Bobble.

Hopefully someone can figure it out. Thanks!
