I don't like the fact that my parents is pressuring me to go to college even after enduring four years of high pressure boredom.

Either I go to college, or I get kicked out.

I don't have a programming job yet, barely able to drive, and generally not prepared for life beyond high school life.

I feel like the world is closing on me and I have no idea where to go other than the painful path my parents and sister set out for me.

I wish I have the capability to navigate life on my own term, without sacrifice in life quality.

Sure you went to school for 4 years to get what it look like very high pay but do you really want to be stuck in corporate cubicle for the rest of your life?

I don't even know what drive kids to sacrifice their time for schooling and at the same time have a life. They probably know calculus like it was the back of their hand.

As for me? I just program for fun and do electronic hacking as another side hobby. I can't do math even if my life depend on it. Beside my undiscoverable underground hobbies, I am just very unremarkable student in a pool of remarkablely bright students.
