Hey all.Ive been thinkin a lot about
college with a lot of my friends
graduating and that, and I think I want to
go to an on campus school, as apposed to
the original plan of stayin at home and
commuting. I am afraid that being so
close to dan still, that I will go back to
him because its so conveinant. And my
sister had talked to my parents and they
told her that they would take care of livy
like every other weekend pick her up n
meet me half way (45 minutes is middle)so
I could stay down there and live a halfway
normal college life some weekends* not
that ill party, but hang out or do
whatever* I really think I want to. I
know itll be hard but what have some of
you done? What do ya highschoolers plan
on doing about college*assuming you are
goin* hmm...
Love mol

Hey mol,
im so happy to hear that you are still
planning on going to college. As for your
idea...Do you really want to be away from
livvy like that? Dont think i'm
criticizing but I would think that would
be difficult for you and her both. As for
dan, I dont think you would go back to him
not after what he said to you. Most
campuses have family housing as well, if
you are married or have a child you are
considered a non traditional college
student *traditional students are 18-23
straight from high school no spouse or
children* so there should be many
different options from housing and day
care and a bunch fo stuff to help you out
and its teriffic that youre family wants
to help out, and keep us posted, I work in
one of the administration offices at my
university so I can give you the basic
skinny on stuff if you like!

I think it is awesome that you are going
to college! There are so many single
mothers that think they cannot continue
their education. I wish you all the best
in your education! And it is great that
your parents are going to help you out
with livy too!!
I am so proud that you are continueing
your education with livy! It's an awesome
example to set! I wish you all the luck
and I think you can do it! What college?

I think college is a great idea too! Be
sure to ask about scholarships, because
non-traditional students, like meg was
saying, can usually get lots more
scholarship money than most students.
