Noooo, I understand that! The point is, you shouldn't feel useless, because you're obviously going to do what you either have to do or want to do. It's no one's business bu your own. College is nothing. If you can't get through it, it doesn't mean you're useless. It means you have other plans in which college does not figure in!! And I only say this because it's become a recent revelation to me....I realize I've been digging myself into the kind of debt it takes years to get out of just to pay for my education, and yet all I have been doing is skating through classes, not really knowing what I want to do or planning what I will do when I graduate. I went to Japan, and then I realized that what I MOST want to do is the very thing college is NOT going to help me get into!

So I feel it's the same situation--or similar--with you. And I really hate that your close relations like family and friends are calling you useless. If they can't support you or try to help you, then they're useless. What are family and friends for? They should be encouraging the best from you, not putting you down! Maybe you can talk with them about how you feel!

And no problem at all....you really are talented, so it's just such a huge shame to see someone with such a gift have to deal with being called useless and actually believing it. -_- You really are talented--never forget that!

And I am SO glad to hear about Japan!! I know just what you mean. Let's definitely meet up next time.....I want to go back!!! ^^;;
