So ! I've been thinking a lot and doing a lot for my college since I'm going to be leaving High School in June, can't fucking wait. I HATE High School with ever fiber in my bones, I feel like I've been there forever and I just need to get the fuck out of there while I still have my sanity. I don't even know why I'm still here, I've had enough credits to graduate since I was in 10th grade. But according to the New York Education Department I need to have yearly rounds of Gym and Economics course and a whole bunch of other bullshit. I'm not so happy that I'm getting out and I won't ever have to come back to my filthy school ever again.
I'm thinking about dropping Photography and Environmental Science. Each one for almost the same reason. Both teachers don't take the class seriously; in photography we literally do NOTHING. No assignments. No class discussions or ANYTHING. And I have a really nice camera that my mom spent over $1000 for and I can't even put it to use, I just have to make up my own photography. Speaking of that, I think I've taught myself more about photography art than anyone I've ever known my age, and I highly doubt that I'd learn more taking the current class I've been taking. I want to major in fashion photography yet how am I suppose to play and improve my photo taking skills with a class that teaches inefficiently? Environmental Science isn't what I thought it would be either, we don't do anything. The courses are scattered and unorganized, the teacher doesn't take the class seriously. We have no talks on Global Warming or anything like that. It just irritates the living hell out of me and adds to my hatred of how my High School is ran. Again, god I can't WAIT to get out!
About college. I'm really excited. I've talked with my guidance counselor and she told me exactly what I needed to do and what not. She loved my idea of moving to the UK and studying abroad over there. And I told her about my friends living in Plymouth and how I could stay with them during my studies, rent free I might add. Just have to pay for food and what not and basic necessities. Which I will probably have covered since of course I will NEED to get a job. I can't rely on my funding from the American Dollar. Since its worth practically nothing in Europe, it'd probably won't be much anyways. She recommended me to study here for a year or two at a community college and then transferring to a UK college. And I agree with her. It gives me time to get used to the college life, and it gives me time to save up money to be going there too. I want to save up to at least $20,000. I want to be prepared in case something goes wrong and I want to be able to have a sufficient amount of funding for the college in the UK and enough money to get myself settled as well. I also plan to study for a while in France or Germany because I want to major in a language as well. So I think I'm going to be aiming for United Kingdom citizenship. That way I'll be a citizen of the European Union and it'll be easier to travel between countries. I am SO excited just thinking about it. I knew I never wanted to stay in the United States. I don't see myself here. I don't see myself at a regular job. I see myself traveling and going to exotic places. Cities. Countries. I love traveling and I love other places. Hopefully everything goes into plan and I'll be able to fulfill my dreams of getting out of this place.
I want to see the world. And staying in this corrupt country isn't going to let me do that.
I want out.
