Also, I lived in a very well-off community and basically all of my friends and everyone I know gets to go off and have a wonderful fantastic college life on their own… I know NO ONE who is having the same situation as me, not even online, so it’s been a tough and confusing ride for me. Again, thanks for all the reality checks and advice you have all given me.
Just to clear things up:
- I’m commuting my freshman year
-No dorms involved
-My parents bought a home in the city my college resides in, we have already moved in fact. It is about 30 minutes from campus.
I feel very grateful and fortunate to be able to further my education, traditional college life or not. Thanks.
