Honesty, I don’t feel high school is doing me as much good as DevMountain can. Yes, high school will offer me the opportunity to spend 7 hours, 5 days a week with people my age, but I don’t enjoy the company of the vast majority of them. And yeah, I won’t be able to go to high school dances, but I never planned to. I’m not a huge fan of spending the night dancing with a clammy hand boy I don’t particularly like. It’s just not my thing. Dumb movies with my friends on weekends? I can do that whether or not I’m enrolled in school, and that’s how I would care to spend time with my friends. So no, not poor me. I’m quite a lucky kid (:

I genuinely wanted to be pulled out of high school. I don't know how it was in your day, but at this pint in time high school is about passing, not learning.

My dad is known to have a problem with clarity

I will be making a blog shortly, so then you will be able to hear my side of the story c: My dad wasn't the one who forced me to do it, if anything I pushed him to let me pursue this career in a way I would never be able to do should I stay in high school. As for feeling isolated in school it wasn't so much that as I knew that only a few of my friends were really friends with me, while most were my ;friends' because I saw them five times a week. My friends fully support me in this and we plan on spending many weekends catching up. Plus, social networking is a thing so we can talk to each other from miles away. It's not as if as soon as I left high school I cut off all ties with my friends. "Nope, never mind, we aren't friends anymore cause I'm too good for school. I will now spend all my time being a social recluse and not conversing with anyone. Farewell" That'd be dumb

One does not have to be in school to learn history. History was my favourite subject, other than my web classes, but just because I'm not in school doesn't mean I can't, you know, read historical literature for fun. Heaven forbid a teenage learns for the heck of it on weekends.

I can have my parents as my friends, and friends my age. Is it so odd for a teenage girl to be close to the people that raised her?
