I would rather suggest you to find course related job (any)  and talk to your adviser/DSO and have them issue you a CPT authorization. CPT is very easy to get and it doesn't cost you any thing. Also keep in mind that you never use your CPT for more than 11 months and 29 days. If you get CPT for more than 12 months then you'll loose your OPT and it's your choice if you want to use CPT for more than a year.
Good luck bro, be strong and always be nice with others especially fellow students.
