I mean I did try to take some classes at the local college, but they just didn't offer enough of what I wanted. And then my Mother decided to open a restaurant, so I ended up helping her with that for several years. But that went under. And my parents are close to broke, so I've had to help support them. At least until their house sells... but that's been on the market for over a year, with hardly any interested buyers. As a result I have almost no spending money to speak of.
Bless your heart! It does sound like you are spinning your wheels going nowhere, doesn't it. I wish you could get a scholarship that pays enough to cover campus housing, so that you could make a break from home and start your life. You just reminded me why I wouldn't want to be 18 again. That big yawning maw called "the future." Maybe I sympathize so much because I got off to a slow start also. I'll be thinking of you and hoping for the best for you.
