plans of the future. Tue Mar 1, 2005 9:06:24 AM#10882Perm Link
i know alot of you are already in your lifes end or in the middle of it. very few of us are getting to the middle. like me. i just turned 16 some month ago. just about. i got things to look ahead for, and i need advice and alot of things. Some i will list below.
Its like this. i live in colorado(as Sam pointed out in another thread. it sucks 'cuse im there. it sucked when i got here. i just became part of the BS) i moved so many times the only place i stayed in for a year was Maryland of last year. i moved maybe 54 times. all over the est coast and now my "sucked self" is spreading to the west coast of the united states. Honest to god or whom ever. im tryign to get out of my house. i eached that "your-going-through-shit-and-need-your-independent-stage" of my life, as my step mom would put it. WRONG. i need to get out. the hosue i live in is like a god damn cubical that you work in at some telemarketing area. nothing to do, nowhere to go.
I want to go back to maryland you see. i know afew people there. my friend Sparrow and one of my best friends ive had, Kima. we had all planned to move to Ireland last year, we planned to go during the summer. well i moved. as oyu can probably tell i was crushed. i didnt care. but now its settaling in. and it sucks major ass.
another thing is, if i was to go, with what money? i cant get a job because my step mom and my father are stuck up bastards who wont let me do shit in fear i will get back at them for the BS they put me through.
i already have where im going to say if i go back. its getting there. i know a way to leave, but i have no way in hell of traveling over 1000 miles to get there.
my father told me iff i do any of these things, hed kick me out, which got me thinking.
1. getting a girl pregnet, not happening.
2. go to jail, did time in juvey, it sucked ass.
3. drop out of highschool. i could do. i could drop, go to maryland and reinroll myself. the problem again is, no way of getting there.
what the hell do i do?
PS, im being serious, i dont want any smart ass comment about me or how i think, im very open and honest. i can be th enicest person you know, or the biggest asshole you can met
You say your sixteen, hey so am I. I live in Delaware and I want to move to Colorado. Anyway to answer your question I would just bare with living there till your 18 then move to go to college at Maryland. Meanwhile save up your money now to buy an apartment and an airplane ticket.
You have to be 18 to buy an airplane. You'd be stupid to leave. Your parents provide food, shelter and education to <i>you</i> free. The size and amount is irrelevant, because however you look at it, there is always some one in a worse situation than you.
Wow, you took that seriously?
Anyways, I'm 17 and I've lived in this same place for my whole life, you should be lucky for what you got to do and see so far because not everyone has got a chance to do as much as you already have. Whenever you graduate, I suggest going off to college like wolf said. There are ways you can get ahead in highschool so that you can leave faster depending on what grade you are in. I knew that I wanted to get out faster and hurry up and get on my own when I was in 10th grade, I was sick of all the bull shit my parents were giving me. I talked to counselors at high school and they helped me graduate early and just made it really easy for me. And it's not hard at all, all you do is talk to them for about 30 minutes, you sign some papers and you're done, at the end of the year they'll show you what classes you should take and everything. At the end you graduate with a 2 thousand dollar scholorship and bam you're done. Still, I don't know if that is an option for you since I don't know all the details but I suggest you try everything to get out of there.
After graduating I still live at my parents but not because I was made to, but because I chose to. So seriously you can do whatever you want, there's options for everything. Sorry if I repeated myself, but yeah I was where you are at before and it was only last year too so anyways hope that could help I don't know what else to say.
