Yeah, I'm completely the opposite as far as my parents wanting me to stick around... my parents live in New York and I went to college in North and South Carolina... not only because it's far away but also because the weather's so much better :P
Ooh, my bad xD Good luck on your next three years of school then xD Actually, I didn't find high school that bad, but that may be because I went to one that was decent at the time. From what I hear though, my old high school has gone to hell in a handbasket since I left... budget cuts and all... heck the place even lost part of the roof... that's gotta be a sign, lol
