Thinking about moving to another state to be with my grandma

You are running away from a problem instead of trying to solve it. You have to pick yourself up and stay motivated to study hard and do whatever it takes to succeed in school. No one is going to be able to do that for you.(not your grandmother, a girl friend, or your friends) If you are determined to do well and really put in the effort there is no reason why you wouldn’t be able to transfer to a four year college. Set some high standards for yourself. A’s and B’s don’t come without any effort.

From your posts you seem unfocused and constantly look for reasons to leave school. Last spring you wanted to withdraw from school. It doesn’t appear that you are putting your best effort to succeed in school. I am hearing too many excuses.

You really need to take ownership of your life. Completing your degree shows employers that you are disciplined and are able to focus on a task and complete it.

Part of growing up is learning to become independent. You are now a grown up. Time to start taking responsibility for yourself and stop making excuses. Life is not all fun and play. If you want to achieve something good for yourself you will have to make sacrifices and stay dedicated to achieving your goals. For you the most important thing is being able to financially support yourself and your education is your ticket to your financial freedom. Do not mess up this opportunity to better yourself and don’t take your education for granted. It is truly a wonderful opportunity that you are throwing away.

If you keep withdrawing and having to repeat your classes you are going to run out of money to finish your degree.
Stop complaining and instead focus in on school and performing well.

If you have free time go volunteer and help those that are less fortunate. You will find out what real struggles people have to deal with and will maybe appreciate the opportunities that you have.

If your heart is not focused on school then once the semester is over find a fulltime job and pay all your own expenses. Your grandmother shouldn’t have to pay for your phone. You can get a prepaid phone for yourself. The best thing you can show your family is that you are focused on school, are working hard towards creating a good future for yourself so that they don’t have to worry about you because you can’t be dependent on them forever.

Your opportunity to go to school is truly a gift you have taken for granted. There are many people who desperately want to attend school but have to work fulltime to take care of their families and pay their bills. You just have to be responsible for yourself. Don’t expect someone to hold your hand every step of the way.

Moving is not going to solve your problems. There is no guarantee you will be happy or make friends in a new place if you don’t change your mindset.
