Hannah, you are a beautiful girl with a wonderful life ahead of you! Remember that if you say your prayers and do your best, everything will work out okay. A few practical suggestions--find a job you like and see if you can make more money at it by getting some specialized training. Go to the singles ward. And don't waste your time on boys who bring you down. There are some really good ones out there, and they are the ones you'll make you happy.Babzanne Barkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14399247439092580193noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-89003994365707538242008-01-03T15:30:00.000-07:002008-01-03T15:30:00.000-07:00HAHAHAH!

I ended up finsihing college at 27, pregnant with my third. It worked out.<BR/><BR/>My advice is: Know that you're not alone. Most 19 year olds are like this. And life is looooong. Choosing a "wrong" major or "wrong" college won't screw you up forever.<BR/><BR/>Pray lots, eat lots while your metabolism is high, and breathe. <BR/><BR/>I agree that it's probably not knowing what she wants to study, and not the school itself, but changing both wouldn't be a bad thing either.The Wizhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18200774436938621900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-86985014263996804922008-01-01T15:57:00.000-07:002008-01-01T15:57:00.000-07:00PS or you could move to the sticks and be a hermi...PS or you could move to the sticks and be a hermit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-48231788624475571342008-01-01T15:56:00.000-07:002008-01-01T15:56:00.000-07:00I have been thinking about this and Wanted to give...I have been thinking about this and Wanted to give a good suggestion that maybe would make one think.<BR/><BR/>Question: Why this College? Sure it is hard not being around those with the same belief system as you. Anywhere you choice you are going to have trials of your faith. I have family who have both gone to church schools and non church schools. They have found friends both good and bad at both. What I have learned from them is it is not the school job (whatever) that makes the difference it is you. Where is your Faith is it there to get up and study on your own or do you still need help like you had in seminary Is it there to get you to church on Sunday or do you still need friends to help you get up in the morning? etc etc So my Suggestion is Go back to school Make the best of it Find out how strong you are and that your Family knows you can be and as the hymn says put your shoulder to the wheel. :) You'll never regret going to school but you may if you don't and if you find you need the extra support of going to a church school or being around more of your faith them make arrangements and do it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-54662835033779568162008-01-01T14:08:00.000-07:002008-01-01T14:08:00.000-07:00Feliz Happy New Year!!Feliz Happy New Year!!Super Happy Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15669901597597136922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-52949064617087222342008-01-01T08:25:00.000-07:002008-01-01T08:25:00.000-07:00butt crack and all! awww, best to her. but so cu...butt crack and all! awww, best to her. but so cute how you guys are helping her out like this, i think he he.<BR/><BR/>it's hard to know what to say when they have to find their way, they have to figure out what matters to them and what they want and they won't listen to much you will say when you are the parent. sorry, big run on :)<BR/><BR/>blessings, <BR/>kathleen xoxosogratefultobemormon.wordpress.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141321969690842348noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-48929573273777906702007-12-31T22:47:00.000-07:002007-12-31T22:47:00.000-07:00Continue with college, even if that means attendin...Continue with college, even if that means attending a different one and/or changing your major!<BR/><BR/>I know a lot of people who regret not going to college...but I've never heard of anyone kicking themselves and saying, "DANG!

Change the course of study, and school will become fun (aside from a few General classes that one must suffer through). The advice I submit is, "Figure out what she loves to do in her free time." One can find an education or career that matches anything a person likes to do. All that matters is digging in, and willingness to start over when something isn't "quite right." <BR/><BR/>My own, very abridged story is that I spent all my free time developing web pages in my parent's basement. I moved from Graphic Design to Computer Science to (what I call) General Computer Studies - and I now am qualified to be paid very well for what I love to do.Janellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11092893864737058248noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3007302520478956179.post-42554786016689261622007-12-31T10:04:00.000-07:002007-12-31T10:04:00.000-07:00If she doesn't want to go to college, make her go ...If she doesn't want to go to college, make her go to a trade school (i.e Hairschool, massage school, skin school, nail tech school, something along those lines).
