Send your parents back to school and you can talk proudly about them.

You are smart, bright, and totally wonderful. Not everyone gets through college on the same pace. I took an entire year and was watching most of my friends graduate while I was deciding which classes to take the next semester. Do college on YOUR pace and not someone else's pace. Enjoy yourself and soak in the knowledge.

...

and my mom just walked in and complained about my schooling.....AGAIN.

UGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH

School was nightmare best day was when I got thrown downasatirs and cripped and out of there. Told at 22 I was an unemployable special needs incorrigible who would never get a proper job

Damn they were right two degrees later ended up a Commercial Lawyer for 18 years.

You are great and you will know it one day.

I know, I think, I can do something great. Or at least decent.

But right now I feel like jumping out the window so she doesn't have to deal with me anymore.

omg, I know how you feel. I am 25, didn't graduate hs and then joined the navy(was in for a whopping 6 mos)Registered for classes twice now, started and then dropped out... never seemed to finish anything. Now I just finished my FIRST quarter with an a- average. Sure, most other people my age have graduated and are now doing their own thing but think of this... Almost everyone works until they are 62... no matter when you start working that is the age that most retire... I am going to work alot less years than the average person... YAY ME... and I LOVE school now that I am able to CHOOSE that I WANT to go. Take your time. You will get so much more out of it. I promise.

I really understand this one. I started off school as an areospace engineering major, and I kicked ass. Awards etc. But in the end I just couldn't so it anymore. My entire family holds it against me. My dad doesn't even tell people that he has a third daughter. And my mom chooses not to talk to me. In my opinion, fuck school. I know it is important to them, but for me.... who cares? I make good money... and I may go back. but never feel bad... we loser gotta stick together.

Of course your parent will speak proudly of you. That is all they have done the whole time you have been alive.

I am 30. I have been to 2 4 yr schools, one of which I flunked out of twice this one I am doing well in. I have also taken classes at community college.
I have been at it for 3 years now and I will graduate in 3 years. It is worth it.
People have a lot more respect for those who try and fail than those who never try at all. And personally I never liked any one who thought it was "easy." That is a dumb thing to say.

Less than best is failure, give yourself a break.

LMAO lindel, you're too quick!!
