anyone planning on going to college...

<p>had your parents choose the college you will attend next year?
are making you stay at home during college?
had your parents choose which colleges you would APPLY to?
yell at you because you aren't receiving enough scholarship money?
are practically grounding you because u got one C on your progress report card?
are making YOUR summer plans?</p>

<p>if so...</p>

<p>then u are in the same situation as me :)</p>

<p>You sound really happy</p>

<p>that sucks...is there another college you got into that you want to go to instead?</p>

<p>No.
No.
No.
No.
YES!!!
Maybe.</p>

<p>I don't let my parents decide anything for me.</p>

<p>slap each of your parents twice. once for me, and once for you.</p>

kindof. notreally.</p>

<p>My parents have no idea how i'm doing in school and they know nothing about the school system. So, yeah, I decide everything myself.</p>

<p>I'm with slacker. My parents couldn't even tell you which schools I applied to.</p>

<p>Don't get me wrong, they're awesome and totally supporting and loving, but they (wisely) allow me to run my own life.</p>

<p>Sorry to the OP. =( Sounds like you have the parents from Hell.</p>

<p>Sounds like my parents and your (austinj) parents can get along. My parents are cool too. They're caring and supporting. theripcurl1969, good luck!</p>

<p>austinj: ...correct!!!!.</p>

<p>what i meant by the last point was:</p>

<p>"are your parents making your (as in you the 18 year old's) summer plans?"</p>

<hr>

<p>i dont even know what to say in terms of me choosing the college b/c they always have the same comeback "we are paying for college so we choose where you go."</p>

<p>arsenalsweep: yeah i got into ucsd, uci (where i am going), cal poly SLO, among others (safetys). ucsd was my dream school and i really wanted to attend but my parents decided i would go to uci. i hate my parents so ****ing much.</p>

<p>had your parents choose the college you will attend next year?
No.
are making you stay at home during college?
They want me out.
had your parents choose which colleges you would APPLY to?
No.
yell at you because you aren't receiving enough scholarship money?
I have a whopping $0 in scholarships, My family is lucky enought to afford it tho.
are practically grounding you because u got one C on your progress report card?
Yea. Im more dissapointed in myself.
are making YOUR summer plans?
As is what? Working, boat partying, and endless summer hook-ups? Yea, I'm pretty much on top of it.</p>

<p>damnit u guys are all lucky. i dont feel i should go to college, but instead they should go for me (cuz i mean they are making all the decisions)</p>

<p>hmm. there is no way my rents are controlling where i'll go. i'm going to be 18. i am an adult. they aren't ME.</p>

<p>is it completely mandatory to attend a university after u submitted the statment of intent to register?</p>

<p>Is it a big secret, or are you going say which school?</p>

<p>big secret? no not at all: uci. but i really wanted to go to ucsd.</p>

<p>so if i sent in the SIR for uci then do i HAVE to go to uci</p>
