That I need to go to the doctors because of my overwhelming feelings of depression,obsession with a friend (that is a girl) and suicide. However I suppose the amount of times I have made an attempt of suicide I get stopped because in victoria the Law states "any force nessacary can be used to stop an individual from commiting suicide. In my case getting pushed to the ground with a revolver in my hand.
Oh well life goes on (as much as mine sucks)

well, first you have to have a clear and stable mind before you make any decisions in life. find a good doc who can diagnose and treat your brain chemistry imbalance. diabetics have to take insulin because their pancreas isn't cranking out what it should, so think of it in the same way.

If you have a talent (and you clearly do), exploit it for all it's worth or it will go to waste.

I'm actually looking towards music. Maybe that way, I'll be able to use both.

Are those two different things?

Ignorance means simply 'not knowing', as in 'I am ignorant as to who the 12th president of the united states is' or 'The public were ignorant to what was going on in Rwanda for several years'. It's frequently misused to refer to an individual who rejects facts that do not agree with his conceptions (as a means to avoid cognitive dissonance).
Stupidity is completely different -- it mostly refers to people either (1) not paying attention to something important at the appropriate time (ie: oh it was stupid of me to build my recycler there) or (2) the inability or extreme difficulty to learn and/or problem solve.

That's where I went, that's turning out OK so far.
And try more creative writing too, it keeps the creatively minded ticking over so long as there's a pen and paper nearby (otherwise it's frustrating, and believe me, there is nothing more frustrating than a lost idea).
EDIT: What have I learned today? That my music teacher might have f***ed over the future of every student she has ever taught. And all our grades could be completely nullified simply because of it.

Never mind, a music qualification is a fairly useless item, your chances of ever earning a buck with it are about 0.001%. Its the ears that count.

Problem is that it's difficult to get into a university course without the relevant qualifications - in my case, software development and music technology.

That reminds me, my sociology professor gave me an assignment to do excessively norm-breaking behaviors in public. Though, she wont bail me out of jail i I get arrested for something.

Don't do something you could get arrested for, then

How about breaking norms by having
no credit card debt? Unfortunately, that's rare. But helpful.
