As long as you're 100% sure that this is the right thing to do, you know I'm behind you. Just make sure you're not doing anything purely based on emotions. I did that with Central and I totally regret it.

I'm going to continue my trend of possibly alienating you by posting unasked for advice to your journal as if I know shit about shit. I can only hope you don't take too much offense, but I'm actually less worried about that.

Please reconsider dropping out. Is school really diametrically opposed to your goal? I would KILL to go to New College rather than my community college, though attending MCC has been a humbling lesson in just how hard people from all walks of life work to be able to get their education. They fight for it, and its not easy. It's both inspiring and soul crushing to witness, and I wish you could see it.

I understand what you are saying. instead of dropping out, I am chosing to take a leave of abscence. I know that if I stay in sarasota, I am going to die. I know that sounds pretty silly. but it is honestly a fact. for the next couple of months, I cannot be here. for one thing, any work I do in school will be nowhere close to the work of "my full potential"

thanks for your concern <3 and no alienation has occured. I also understand what you are saying about my being fortunate in that I am able to attend new college. However, it was not just dumb luck that landed me here. getting my education here is extremely important to me, but I feel like I would be wasting my own time as well as all my instructors if I were to remain here this semester. I am simply mentally incapable of living a healthy life right now and instead of waiting for this madness to blossom like it has so many times in my life... I am making a change. and getting the fuck out of dodge. so to speak. sorry this is so long.
