life went by surprisingly quick, im overwhelmed now with college, work and buying a car. im doing it all on my own. my whole life i dreamt about the day i would graduate high school. it felt nothing like i thought it would. i thought it would feel better, i thought i would feel like i had accomplished something huge, but i dont. maybe because my family didnt show as much enthusiasm and appreciation as i thought they would.i feel like graduation never happened. WHY?

Sorry about the lack of support from family Angel w/a capital*. If it helps any congratulations on finishing high school. It is a huge achievement because now your seeing a glimpse of how real life is. College in itself is a big thing to look forward to. May you continue to prosper in that as well.
The funny thing is when we graduate college, where really considered adults and the real world is shown to us. I thought the same thing when i graduated college. Your in essence on your own and you have to make adult decisions.
But don't be discouraged, you sound like you have your head on straight. You will make it. Just take it one day at a time. Enjoy your college experience as much as you can while making the grade. Don't let it get to you. Now that's easier said than done, but you in the end the most important thing is obtaining your degree. YOU CAN DO IT! And when you do, you will feel so proud of yourself. Good luck with college and follow your dreams. Take care.

Don't worry. It feels like that for everyone. Maybe your parents aren't ecstatic because, as far as job-qualification-wise, college is the new high school. You sort of HAVE to graduate high school in order to get a decent job. Have no fear though, it'll kick in when you go off to college, don't live at home anymore, and start being your own (wo)man. You can come and go as you please, take whatever classes you feel like, usually have a lot more responsibility.
