Just A General Life Update for Anyone Who Cares

Feb 20, 2019 by noobsmoke13
2 days ago I turn 19. Sometime last week I was accepted to college.

Originally, I was not accepted to my dream college, which is a very expensive private school in my town. Instead of just straight-up being rejected from that school, they recommended me for a new bridge program where I will spend 2 years at a 2 year school and then spend the remaining 2 years at my dream school.

The 2 year school is near me, which is something I wanted in a school, and I have enjoyed it based upon what research I have done. Due to my grades, I will be able to go to the 2 year school completely tuition free.

Freshman orientation is in June and I am ready to start this journey. I will be a first generation college student. My father dropped out in middle school. My step mother dropped out in high school. My older brothers all dropped out. At my current house, I am surrounded by alcoholism and drug addiction and the constant reminder of my biological mother's absence. I am constantly reminded of our poverty as food stamps run out by the end of the month and child support doesn't always come and part of me pursuing education is making sure my kids in the future never have to grow up like that.

A lady in my church helped me pay the $100 housing deposit, and I am doing really well so far this school year. I plan on majoring in Journalism and minoring in Theatre. I am an active member in my school's newspaper staff, photography program, videography program, literary magazine, and theatre.

Good on you, with 2-year schools, you get the same diploma as going to 1 school for 4-years which significantly less student debt.

noah_kondon So true! I can legit avoid taking any loans until my junior or senior year, although the 2 years tuition free give me plenty of time to get more scholarship money!
