Super Parents to the Rescue

I talked to my parents today about having to drop my minor.  Mom listened and said that if that is what I need to do, then do it.  And then she called back.  She had talked to Dad and he did not hesitate to tell me that I was being ridiculous and that my education will always come first.

I knew that was true before, but the lack of an income has left its toil on my family.  I knew that I needed a job, that I need to be able to supply for myself to some degree, but Dad told me that I would never get this chance again.  Sure, I will now only be working weekends, and going home will not be happening, and I will be stressed to the max taking 16 hours and working 15-20 hrs a week, but I can do it.  I can still get my minor, and graduate in December and pay all my bills, except my rent, and live.  My life my not be include much buying, but since my bad influence spending friend is gone, this might be easier than I think.

Without my parents none of this would be possible, what can I say, I love them.

  1. HEY. Don't think that just because I'm gone, I can't influence you from afar to purchase things you don't need to simply MUST HAVE.

    My influence is far-reaching, friendo.

  2. That is true, but it is easier to ignore your influence when it is just a mind nag and not a physical poke.
