    But what about the fees for things? It's all got to be paid for somehow... ;/
    maybe if you work for a little in a job that suits your taste then go on and travel, that might be better, but you don't want that? :S

    I plan to work my arse off until September and earn some money, then the adventure really begins. And by the way everyone, thanks for replying and stuff, it's really helping and inspiring me.
    If anyone feels like a chat or whatever anytime, msn me.

    School is totally different from College and uni. go to either and you'll see what I mean.

    I think you should do what you decide is right.

    It sounds like your an ambitious person, know what you like and what you don't like. but living like that can go two main ways, you love it and have a great time untill you get bored, get increadibly homsick, regret all the choices you made and can't go back.

    Personally, i think, as long as you are a likeable, confident, charming person you shouldn't have a problem around wales. But coming to major citys, unless you know people there, wont be a good idea.

    Do take a stop from college if ur parents let you but only make up your mind when you have enough money.

    I'm pretty confused, and i'm pretty sure you've contradicted yourself about 4 times in that.
    It sounds like you're telling everyone you want to be anti-establishment and run away and be free and all that rubbish, then you say you want to get a day job? a boring 9-5 day job? Which you said you don't want to do also.
    If you do decide to do this you'll most likely find your day job is even more boring and requires more effort than sixth form, and you get to see your friends even less, and there's not even that many good jobs going around at the minute either.
    And i got even more confused when you said you want to go to college next year instead. You're only gonna find that if you go to college it's gonna require **** loads of effort aswell, and you'll hate that subject because it requires so much effort, all students are the same.
    You don't want to spend your next 2 years of your life in school and then 4 years in university. And then get a boring job? Instead you want to spend the next half a year/year in a boring job, and then go to college for 2 years, and then what... be free? isn't that abit of a waste of time?

    I think i'm being abit harsh, but i do think you're very confused. And have idealistic views on alot of things that aren't going to be what they seem. For example if you decide to be free and live in a caravan or whatever, the novelty will wear off after a short period of time. And college isn't going to be amazing even if you are doing subjects you think you like.

    My advice to you is to stick at what you're doing at the moment, and have a propper think about what's really going to happen. If you're really don't like 6th form and your subjects that much, by all means drop out and get a job until next year and then start at college, that's great. But if you are going to do that, which i think you probably should. Don't go on about the idea of being free and all that, cause you just sound like a hypocrite, if you're gonna have that only live once attitude then go do it now and don't go to college.

    I think what you should do, is think of a job that you'll really enjoy, something you wont get bored of and wont even mind working 9-5 cause it's something you love. Then base what your going to do around that i.e what college subjects you want to do, if you need grades for uni etc etc etc.

    I really think you should watch this film though too, you'll relate to it quite abit http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758758/

    i'm done :eusa_danc
