crying

I got accepted to this super cool (super hard and super expensive) high school. I know it wasn't such a good idea because college is what my mom's been saving up for but she was so happy when I gave her the idea and now she's happy that i'm going to the top school in the district. But, I had no clue that I was gonna actually get in.
sweatdrop If you ask me I don't know how I got in, I just answered questions at the intervew and took a 3 hour test. (that i failed) And I STILL got in!
gonk And the worst part of it all is that my friends are mad at me for leaving them. Even though the whole thing started because one of them was being forced to go and since I knew my mom was looking for alternatives to public high school I told her about it. crying I really want to go with them but my mom keeps telling me that education is more important than friends.
But even if I get a good education how will it make me happy?
Not to mention I don't want my mom paying so much money for 4 years just for high school at the same time that my big bro is going to college and as soon as that's over I have to go to college as well and followed by my (soon to be adopted) cousin. She keeps telling me not to stress over it so I won't, but I'm both glad and scared that I got in.

so... it's a happy-sad situation. XD

wow... I'm sorry... personally, I'm heading to a new state, where I will start on-line high-school/home-schooling, and then I plan on doing almost all of my college online as well, so I wouldn't really know how it feels to worry about parents having to pay for that, but I do understand feeling guilty about what your parent(s) is doing for you...
also, it is my personal opinion, from my almost 16 years of life experience, that GOOD friends are more important than education, because you can go out and learn whatever you want, whenever you want, nowadays, at least, because of computers and libraries... and its not that easy to make good friends at all... but I also understand the importance of a good education, because if you don't have one, then you cant get a good job, but still... work at school, but don't forget to make those friends... even if its just one person. the loneliest person will always think that even just one person would be worth it, no matter how much we like our loneliness...
I'm rambling now... what I really meant to say, is good luck! dont let the world bog you down!^^

Psychedelic...
I disagree with Dasuki. I think that an education is more important than your friends. You can always make new friends, but you only get once chance to grow up.

Good luck!

if its the fact that your mom'll be paying for 8 years of school for you, and two other people's colleges, look at it this way, if you go to this great school and do great, you'll probably be able to get atleast a part scholership. I do agree with leprechaun, you can always make new friends.
most importantly, don't give up! biggrin
