Dropped out of High School...

Thank you for reminding me of what is really important in my life...I have gone through many changes in the past six months, and currently not happy with where I am at right now...but I know that it is up to me to make the changes I want to have happen...just need to figure out what the next steps are and take action rather than just thinking of it....


It is amazing to me, that it takes a medical crisis to give me another wake up call...but now that I am okay medically, it is time to re-evaluate what I want to do and where I want to go.....then take the baby steps forward to make it happen!!!


It is up to me as to how I choose to live my life, and reach my dreams. I just needed the reminder...thank you Old Wolf... I do appreciate it, your timing is perfect!

Find a commune, or section 8 houseng. They work around you income, my aunt got an apartment for $32 a month. May not be great, better then living with mom or on the street though. I'm sure by now you have made up your mind or something thoughXP

 

Hey man I've got a good idea for your problem. There's this real hip place around Summertown TN. called the Farm. It's an old hippy commune that isn't doin' so hot as it did back in the 60's-70's. But it is pretty kickass. You pay an average of $75-130 a month to live there an' there's also a small fee to get in. But they'll give you jobs there to earn the money to live by an' as far as I know it's almost all free. I'm goin' to check it out here in a half year or so man. I'm almost 18 an' I'm about to drop out too. cause I'm only gonna be in the 10'th grade. Peace man hope things work out.

 

i know im probably not giving the same advice as everyone else. especially in this forum. but i would have to say go back and finish school. or get your GED. you will regret it in the future. you are too close to throw it away right now. think of what life will be like in 10 years, or even now!!! if you dont have an education. your fucked. what if you find out later you find out what you really want to be, i chose a sign language interpreter, you dont have to be a lawyer, doctor, or a graphic designist. you can be an archaeologist, a professional painter, or artist, a book writer, start your own business. just get that little paper that says, yes, i have finished the hs education.

 

hey man no worries ur not alone!!! im going to be 17 in a few months and well grade 10 for me was a dud! a total waste of time, so its grade 11 now and i havnet removed my name from the regestration but ive skipped everyday for the past 6 weeks so im sure theyre going to take me off in no time,a part of me thinks its my home life and yet i often think im just lazy which i probably the case, but at the same time its good to nkow im not alone as i see you were told to go out in nature well acctually im going to do that soon im going to meet up with people ive met on here and were all going to go on a backpacking trip around north america for a few monthes in hopes that maybe we can find oursleves out there ur welcome to join us, if you want ewde be happy to have you come long, let me nkow what ur thought are
