Well I graduated as valedictorian of my high school so it is expected that I go to college. The problem is I really don't want to, as ironic as that may seem. But I really don't want to let my parents down, again. I feel like me getting pregnant was a big enough disappointment for them. I feel like going to college is just going to stress me out and like I can educate myself the way I have been doing. Then again, it seems like you need a degree for everything these days. If I go to college I will be majoring in business, and I just really think that I could do all of that on my own.

What I really want to do is just work right now and save up money. While working I will be reading books and basically educating myself in order to get a good job, and start on a career. I honestly think I can do it, but I just don't have it in me to let my parents down once more. Also, I feel like if I don't succeed school will always be there and I can go back. But I don't want to end up being a college drop out if I start now.

I'm just so confused and don't know what to do. What do you think?
