college the killer! When i started JROTC i didnt do it b/c i wanted to be in the military. In fact, i felt quite the opposite. i didnt want to be in the military under any circumstances! And since college has always been an expensive thing, my family isnt quite sure if ill be able to go since we arent the very rich. So they hoped that i would do good in school and get scholarships. Well ive been doing good in school and today my teacher(Colonel Long for JROTC) told me he has a scholarship to north georgia college, a military college. And not just a military college, a very good military college! but we would have to wear uniforms everyday, something i would not be happy with b/c i would have to put my hair up everyday. im now torn between taking the scholarship, pleasing my parents but wearing unifroms every single freaking day!, or turning it down and not being able to go to college at all...... this is killing me.. i want to accept but first i need to learn more about it.... as if this world hasnt already made life hard enough for me!.. plz give me advice b/c i really need it! sweatdrop thanks damn someone else horse got loose and is now messing with our horses..... oh god...haha run horsie run! (my mom is trying to catch it) lmao this is good!

	it all depends. we don't have much money for college either, so i'm hoping to get scholarships to. my 'rents are all for piano scholarships or writing... personally i'd be happy with ANY. but neways, sorry...... ti depends on wut u want to make with ur life. it'd prolly be a lot easier to get a high-end good (and good paying) job if u have a college diploma. remember, if u went to college it'd only be like 4 yrs (depending on wut u want to do, and how that military thing is) wearing ur hair up isn't that bad, and as for the uniforms... look at it this way. everyone else is gonna be wearing uniforms to. ^^ haha. it might get hard sometimes, but ALL colleges are hard, seriously. If u went to that college u could please ur parents, and that's always good. if u didn't go to college u might not get the education u need for the profession u want to do, u know? try a list of pros and cons for going and not going to college. if u have the scholarship, (especially if it's for a GOOD college) i say go for it. =P

	I back up amazing_pirate's and travelgirl2009's words, but I'll have to be little more harsh about the way I explain my opinion because that's just me. See, I honestly believe you're over-reacting for the whole uniform thing. After all, it is only a clothe set in exchange for a SCHOLARSHIP, that is something many of my friends would kill for. It is an opportunity I don´t think you should let escape cuz I know from my own experience that you WILL regret it later. Life is not that hard when you take advantage of the good opportunities it offers.

	thank you everyone for commenting.... but my decision is that i most likely wont go. this has partially been influenced b/c of my dad. he actually said that under no circumstances would he allow me to join the military... its not that he doesnt like this country, though, its probably b/c they screwed him over.... he doesnt want me to get done the same way i guess. so i dont think ill have to worry about this problem anymore.... thanks again everyone for ur input! ^_^
