(Day One) 
   Collage Now was just to much. I first joined the class because of recommendations from teachers. I went into the class with high hope's only to leave with little or no hope to get into collage. Right now I feel as if the only way out of this mess is to join the Marines. This is because all you need is a GED to join the Armed Forces. As a little boy at the age of six I love the Armed Forces. Although I never wanted to fight a pointless war such as the war hat is being fought in Iraq. I thought it was Honorable to fight in a war such as 
(Day Two)
I have been talked to about collage and thus these thoughts helped me to clam down. My thought of anger have turned into thoughts of under standing the collage experience.

This is the job of the student to look for any program or policy involing specical eduction students .
(Day Three)
I have discussed my future about college with many people. But when i said "I'm Dropping out of Collage now" some people just like my brother just looked at me and shook their head in disappointment. Even though some how, even the people who shook their head agreed with my choice about leaving college now. Even though many people were disappointed, they were proud that I attempted College Now.

    One comment about the writing: I would like to "see"/"hear"/"read" about these conversations. Talk about different people who you discuss College Now with. Why or why not do their opinions matter to you?

    One comment about the content: You are experiencing a "growing up" moment, the one where you realize you are your own best, and sometimes only, advocate. I would like you to be aware that there are college programs out there for kids with IEP's. Google Special Education College Support.
