These past few weeks have been the most stressful in my 19 yrs on earth. I first had to deal with possibly being pregnant with a man I barely even knew(I'm not by the way). Then I had to cope with the major possibly that I have no future with him because of a 7 yr difference.
Next has to deal with matters of education. I'm still not a high school graduate(I'm only 1 class away from graduating so don't be pointing any fingers at me ok?) & the pressure from parents to get my diploma is overwhelming & actually makes me feel like a failure & not even want to graduate. I know it sounds pretty stupid but I can't seem to handle it. They think pressuring me to the extreme will motivate but it actually is making less motivated. I can't explain it but it does.
College. These past few weeks I have been trying to get into the city college & now you're thinking "Why even do that. You're not a high school grad yet". But I was told that I was still qualified to enroll because I was only 1 high school credit away & I was to be at least 18 yrs of age. So no biggie, right?Wrong! Well after taking the assessment test & registering for my classes online, I check to see the total bill for my classes & it was $1000+ ! Talk about ridiculous. So I examine the info carefully & then I saw the flaw: they registered me as a non-resident. So I thought it wasn't really a big deal & that I could just tell them to fix it(it was their mistake,not mine. I put "permanent resident" on my application).
So I go this morning & I tell them about the problem with my info. They get out my application that I had originally given them & I saw with my very own eyes that I had put "permanent resident"so it was definitely not my fault at all. They ask for Ca ID & I show them. But then they ask for my green card & of course I didn't have because I had already given them the number for it & also because I don't walk around carrying my green card everywhere I go. But they wanted proof & gave me a list of items I had to bring to show them(2 items from the list) so then I had to bus all the way back home.
Here are the list of items I was supposed to bring in "my name"(Ca Id & green card don't count but have to be brought anyways):
-State and federal tax returns with W-2 forms
-Automobile registration
-California driver's license/California ID card
-Voter registration
-Military personnel: active duty
-Bank account statements
-California license for professional practice/membership in California organizations
-Petitioner for divorce in California
-Utility bills
-Proof of employment (pay stubs)
-Mortgage statements
-Verification of public assistance
So I get home & I tell my dad about my issue with the college. So he gets my green card & starts looking for a bunch of bills & stuff & off we went. We arrive & then my dad tries to talk to the people in the admissions office. Of course it doesn't go well & they tell him the info he brought was useless cuz I'm 19 & the bills didn't have my name. So they told my dad to bring my INS papers & some other things I don't remember & we left.
Then about 10 minutes after I get home, my stepmom starts to bitch like she always does while she looks for more papers they can use to get into GCC. Then I tell her how I wasn't even my fault & she just went on & said how I have to deal with it anyways.
Then I called my mom & I told her everything that happened & I told her if things don't work out that I wanted to move in with her. So yup yup...thats the plan!
Ok...so no GCC but now its the attempt to go to PCC. Well see by Friday is anything changes.
