15 - It is so good to hear from you and how things are going in your life. I am proud of you for having the courage and conviction to stand up for what you believe in. It is not so easy to do that these days, especially with so much peer pressure to conform. You sound like you have your head on straight - good for you!
About this graduating thing - it is a scary thing, but after about a year of college and/or being on your own, you will wonder what you worried about. Of course, my son came home from UTC after a year because he wanted to be around family. Mainly, I think he wanted to be around his girlfriend. What's up with that??? /wink.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=";)" border="0" alt="wink.gif" /> So, he is now going to Austin Peay, at the Ft. Campbell Center where he takes night classes and works all day.
You will do fine. There is no doubt in my mind. Please stay in touch with us when you go away. So many of the kids seem to stop getting on here after they go off to college. Don't do that to us!!! Enjoy! There's so much out there to see and do!
