ok. so, i'm interested in 0-6 pharmacy schools and i'm trying my best to set myself up for that. BUT my parents don't want me to go to college, they want me to join the military. and they're trying their hardest to make it hard for me to go to college.
for instance, i need volunteer hours at a hospital and/or shadowing experience under a pharmacist. so i asked my parents if they could pick me up on the days i volunteer since the hospital is only a 45 minute walk for me after school. they said no. then i said "ok, i'll give you gas money." they still said no. then i said "alright, then i'll walk home from the hopsital". (it's about a 2 hour walk from my house). and guess what? they still said no! grrr! what am i supposed to do? i'm not allowed to volunteer at all, all because they want me to join the military. this isn't fair. they're ruining my life. i'm not even allowed to do ECs. is this something i can mention on college apps when it asks for ECs and volunteer experience? i should've known that when i would read a lot and they would say reading is a waste of time that it would lead up to something like this. ugh...i'm going to have a heart attack
