Ugh, I'm sorry but this makes me mad. I hate the constant push of this country for everyone to go to college. Just because you're smart, it doesn't mean you have to get a degree. If she wants to go to LA, let her try. Would you rather she go to college and spend 4 years pissing a lot of money down the drain because she doesn't know what she wants to do?
I seriously wish someone had told me it was okay not to go to college. I don't regret joining SK, but I found my passion outside of college and now I'm stuck paying off student loans when I haven't even finished my useless degree yet.
