Well Journal, I'm back...and I'm not feeling very happy at all when we last spoke. To anyone else reading this, I've come to a forked road in my life, whether I continue to go to college and try and find a way to succeed in my life....or I drop out of college and go to working in Family Dollar.
Keep going to college:
Pros
-I can keep going and meeting up with my newfound friends who can understand me in the real world.
-I can try and keep going for my degree while also trying to avoid failing.
-I can join alot of clubs and have time for them.

Cons
-If I fail then my parents would've wasted all that gas they used.
-More pressure is put onto my little sis and my parents for watching kids.
-Won't have enough money to keep me afloat if I don't get a dorm.

Drop college and get a job at Family Dollar:
Pros
-I can earn money that I can use for college when I start attending again.
-Will be able to support myself if I can get my driver's license and a car.
-Can stay up however long I want.

Cons
-I spend ALOT more time with the kids even if I returned tired from work.
-I spend less time on the computer with my friends on here.
-I no longer get to see any of my new real life friends and fake sword-fight or even play Yugioh with.
