On a much happier note, I did get my schedule for my first semester. I get to take chemistry with a lab, calculus, and I even got into a psychology class, which I'm super excited for.
Ooh nice. I'm doing chemistry and a lab, along with biology and calculus
Do you think that taking a gap year is a good idea? Right now I’m planning on taking a gap year after high school to travel the world. I’m thinking of becoming an au pair. I really want to travel the world but I’m not sure if I should do it before or after college. The only reason I don’t want to do it after college is because that is typically when you start to settle down. (Like getting a real job and stuff like that. And you start to become frugal with your money.)
If you've got the money for it I say go for it!

The only issue with taking a gap year is this: How will it affect your scholarships? If it has no ill effect, feel free to go for it, but sometimes colleges only offer specific scholarships to people straight out of high school. Another thing is, if you do take a gap year, it’s probably a good idea to keep up the basics in some academic areas, so you haven’t spent forever without practicing them when you go to college.
English, focus on Creative Writing, and potentially minor in Marketing.
Nice! My sister majored in English, and I harbored a fancy for a few years that I'd major in Creative Writing. It didn't pan out, but I still love it
Coolio!
