After waiting for around a year, I got accepted as a PEG student at Mary Baldwin college today. I've gotten various remarks on what I view as my achievement, from happy yet sad friends to confused bystanders. Doubts have filled my head as once again I'm faced with this choice, and this time it is more evident then ever. To skip my high school years, to leave my parents and family (except my sister who already goes to the school) and to be completely responsible for myself.
But I want to do something with my life, I don't need to be famous or rich, I would actually rather not be that rich and if I did collect a fair amount of money I would probably donate it or start an organization. I've written a manuscript which I'm working on proof-reading at the moment. I want to effect the way people think, open peoples eyes and help them to see. Through writing, art, music, acting, or any other form of communication I can carry out my dream, and in such it is an open ended dream.
But those are the best kind, with no limitations or major expectations, solely a hope and an idea to cling to. And hopefully this dream will become reality quicker if I attend this school. So as of now, as long as finance permits, I will be attending this school, but a lot can happen in 5 months.
