Life after High School

School is starting again. Some of us are becoming seniors. Some arnt. But soon we are not going to be in high school anymore.

It scares me a little. Ill be on my own. It will be scary.

What are your plans for life after highschool. what colleges? where do you wanna live? Any career you want to pursue?

I want to go to CalTech. MIT is too out of my league. Well, maybe not.

But CalTech is more appealing to me because of it's location.

BOb, just so you know now...
ive applied at santa fe college in gainsville. im going there in about 3 semesters from now..
okay!

FOOL!

child?

now about life after high school..I WANT TO GO BACK TO HIGH SCHOOL! PLEASE TAKE ME BACK! PLEASE PLEASE! IM SCARED SHITLESS AND I THINK IM GONNA KILL MYSELF SLOWLY!!!

I'm so scared of being a senior but its happening.
That is the biggest reason why i don't want this summer to end.
Being a senior means I'm just so much closer to the rest of my life.
I really want to stay in high school but its not gunna happen.
I'm not really all that scared of the first two years after high school because I'm planning on going to dade to get my GPA up, after that I have NO idea and THAT is what im scared of.
I still don't know what I want to study or where i want to study it.
I'm scared D:

Well, you seem like an intelligent person. You also do not have to go into collage immediately, so you may have time to think on it.

As for me, I'm planning to go to, I believe its FIU, since pretty much all other schools are out of my league. I'm thinking of becoming an aerospace engineer.

No school would take me with my shit GPA.
That's why I'm going to dade.
After that I'm most likely not going to any school in Miami.

For now, I'd like to be a pediatrician.

I know Miami-Dade is a great school, but if I can get a scholarship to UM, then I'd like to go there. Dream school. I know there are better schools, but I actually want to stay in Miami. So yeah. If not, FIU. And if not, Miami-Dade.

Once there, get a bachelor's in (most likely) biology.
& then 4 years of med school in either UM, or FIU.
After that, 3-4 years of residency in Pediatrics.

So in total, I'm gonna spend about 11-12 years in school. Meaning I'll be 30 by the time I actually start my career. WOOT!

PEDIATRICIAN?!
what happened to psychology or whatever?

im gonna study medicine!! yay -________-

I'm already out of High School. The freedom's cool, but the boredom can be nearly unbearable.

I already have. My brother actually grew up in Calgary, Alberta, Canada.

Good times.

Aren't you a sophomore?

Nope. I'm a Junior now.

So then you have to worry starting next year...
unless you're planning on taking like a break after highschool.
but if you dont start worrying about it your senior year then you're not going to college the next year. even if its only dade.

>_>

i dont know what that is supposed to mean...

Wrong, he needs to be worrying about it NOW. Colleges look mostly at your junior year, not senior.
& if you didn't put effort in since freshman year, you're gonna end up having to bust your ass senior year.
I'm starting to feel it the effects of me slacking off freshman and sophomore year.

we're not talking about how hard you work in school, melissa.
we're talking about what colleges we're going to.
