My personal dream is to attend MIT. However, my parents are quite protective because of my mental health, and are barely even considering letting me apply to Simon's Rock. The university I am taking classes at is a private university in a relatively large city. Again, though, my parents did not want me taking on too much my first semester. My father required that I only take one class, however, after much protesting, I bargained for two academic and one musical. I am in Introduction to Psychology, (big whoop, I know, it's a joke of a class) Intermediate French 1, which I tested into because of my previous 3 years of French, and Chorale.
What I would love to do is apply to MIT and, if accepted, drop out of high school, as they do not require of you a high school diploma or GED. My problem is my parents. They mean well, of course, but they have been very protective of me for as long as I can remember. They will take virtually any excuse to delay my higher education, including poor physical and mental health.
And yes, I have tried yoga. It left me feeling ridiculous and in slight pain.
