What should i do?
bpg011 asked:
i’m being pressured about college by my family and teachers and i’m only in the eigth grade. i want to go to julliard but my mom says you have to have money to get in. if i changed my mind about julliard i would go to french culinary institute but my mom says it’s too dangerous. my mom also says i won’t make it in the real world becuz i’m too sarcastic. teachers say i’m too nice and i need to toughen up and as long as i go to college they’ll be proud. my sister says go to college and make something of yourself so i won’t be like my daddy. another teacher told me some people that are making millions didn’t even go to college. i really don’t know what to do.

I kinda know how you feel, I’m a feshman in high school. Eight grade doesnt count at all for college, so dont worry about it, but once you reach high school the pressure is there trust me. When high school starts even in your freshman year is when you need to think about college. Ignore what everyone says, and do what you want to, go where you want to go. Afterall it is your life no one else can live it for you. Once you decide what you want and how you are going to get there the presure will go away. My mom kept on pressuring me to be a pharmiscist, because she wants me to be in the medical field until I just decided hey this is my life I’m going to grow up to live it how i want to and be want i want to, so I decided law is for me and I plan to stick to it and become a lawyer. you dont want to have regrets late in your life and say oh I should have gone to julliard or french culinary school. What do you want to do? that is the question no one can answer but you. Good luck, I hope I helped! ♥
First of all, you do NOT have to have big bucks to go to Julliard. However, you MUST be the creme de la creme in your field. Your grades have to be great, your talent even better. They typically, for example, audition 400 pianists for an opening of 20-40 students. You HAVE TO BE THE BEST!. If you are you will have financial aid packages and scholarships to cover your expenses for the most part (and maybe 100%). Julliard IS tough. Tough to get into, tough to stay in, but YOU CAN DO IT. Being assertive is necessary, being sarcastic is not.
Personally I say GO FOR IT. If that is your goal and PASSION you CAN DO IT!
I would wait a few years. When you’re in high school you become more sure of what you want to do with your life. Tell your parents to hold off on the decision making. You’re not sure. (Besides, money is not an issue for school these days). Have fun being a kid. Good Luck in following your dreams.
