Absolutely! Prior to starting my classes for this Fall, I struggled with the whole notion of continuing my program. I had gotten so frustrated that 3 months of my life I will not be working...and I'm in a Master's program. I no longer have that luxury of living freely as I did as an undergraduate. I'm applying for a student-teaching scholarship. Fortunately, I've saved up money to hold me over that semester and during the summer, but it is ridiculous that you aren't getting paid something. Hell I've heard some teachers say they actually did the teacher's job while the teacher went out and ran errands...
