So today, my life has hit an all time low. What i like to call, rock bottom. Here is how it all happened. Today my Dad and I were going out to eat and a movie, to just shoot the shit. I moved back home a few weeks ago because I was out of money and a job. I had a few 1,000$ saved away, and i was living on my own. But I got fired from my job because they had "To many employies". So that sucked major balls. Moving back home was really shitty, because my parents snoop around like CRAZY, and toss all these cerfues on me. It was a little hard adjusting to the be home by 11 shit. But i got use to it. Well anyways, today my dad and I went out for dinner and a movie, as i said before (Very drunk, sorry). Well I was listening to him lecture about school and shit, and the entire time, he was just throwing insult after insult to me. He tryed to fluff it up with a few giggles and laughs, but i'll quote him "Growing up with a child who basicly, doesnt do anything in school, and just sits around and plays video games, basicly you. Is nothing but a living hell (Laughs) You will know someday when you have kids of your own, if you even do get married" Well thanks dad, you basicly called me a good for nothing son who is just a pain in the ass to you. And said I will never fall in-love or have children. Fuck you, you son of a bitch. All my life, my dad has been a TOTAL dick to me, never supporting me in SHIT. Once a year, around Christmas and his Birthday (12-25) He is a very nice man, he will take my brother and I out to eat, movies, you name it, he will allow it. He doesnt care. But the other 11 months out of the year he will be the biggest asshole in the world. Well now here is where it ALL went wrong. I got a letter in the mail today, something sent to my parents house. And it read like this: On 1-12-07 (My name) Licences is revoked untill 1-12-08. I got TWO speeding tickets in under a month, WAY back when i first got my car (September). I have not even been pulled over sience then. Now here is the thing, I live at home. My school is 45 min away, my class starts at 9:40. No one around me goes to my school. My parents both work. I lost my appartment that was .3 miles from the school. And now i lost my car. So: Here is where it gets really bad. Im in a program right now up at my college. And I'm technacly a "High school drop out". But I wasnt doing to well in Highschool, i just hated the entire thing, so i went into this program. Well the learning style is 100% difforent and im doing SO well in it. Im getting good grades (And weed was never a problem, didnt smoke in Highschool, a few times, but not heavy) Now if i miss a SINGLE day of class, without a doctors note saying something is SERIOUSLY fucked up with me, or im contagious, i cant miss a day of school. Or i get removed from the program. My class starts the 19th, I lose my licences on the 12th. I got the letter today (The 5th) So America is basicly telling me to: Hey kid, go fuck yourself, you now have 7 days to figure out the next 6 months of your life. You have 7 days to get 3 months down payment on an appartment, you have 7 days you find a room-mate. You have 7 days to move everything you own to a new place. You have 7 days to find some furniture for your place. You have 7 days to find a job. You have 7 days to say goodbye to all your good friends, because you wont see them for the next year, not without a fucking ride! You have 7 days to TRY and fight this, but were just going to tell you to fuck yourself. (My mom and dad called 4 cops that have been on the force for 25+ years, AND a friend of the family who is a lawyer. Each of them said the same exact thing, No matter how much i fight it, the law is the law. Judges, unlike the people who do traffic tickets, have to put their Emotions for your Education aside, The way they see it. Your a threat to YOURSELF and EVERYONE else on the road. And you need to be taken off of it right away to learn your lesson.) I know where the US goverment is comming from, But it just fucking sucks man. I have no idea what the HELL im going to do. I have 2 weeks to complete everything above. And i dont know how. Any advice GC? Any LEGAL advice? The last thing i want is to be arrested for something retarted. Jesus and shit was just starting to get SO much better. PS: I found out 2 weeks ago my best friend fucked my girlfriend that i dated for a year and half one day after we broke up, and they both lied to my face about it the next day. But bro's before Ho's man.
Thats a pretty shitty deal man and by the sounds of it your freakin out a bit. Sometimes you gotta take a breath and step back for a bit. All those things you gotta do in 7 days cant be helped so you should get your head down and try your best to sort it. Your folks couldnt be all bad as they were trying to help you by getting the lawyers and shit so maybe they would help you out to get all this sorted and on your feet. Things could be a lot worse and i assume youve got your health. Its gonna be a hectic 7 days dude but its not impossible.
thats kinda messed up what your dad said.my dad says stuff like that to me too.my dad doesnt do much for me either,because hes always in jail,and he calls me a loser. damn man,and you lost your car and other bullshit,i feel for you man. shit happens,life throws alot of low blows at people,some more tahn others,you just have to pick yourself up.
Same shit happened to me bro. You know what I did? I picked up my ass off the ground, went to the courthouse and straight up told the judge that taking my license away will ruin any chances I have at an education. I told the judge that I live too far from college to walk and no one to take me. I was very nice and polite. The judge ended up giving me a restricted license instead of a suspended licence which allowed me to drive to school and work only. Nothing else. I still drove around, just real careful, and never got caught thank god!
im somewhat in the same position. i just got "perminately" kicked out of my house. and im still in school. so im either on the streets or sleeping over at friends houses. but my friends arent exactly helping me deal with what just happened. i mean i just got kicked out 2 days ago. and all theyre thinking about is what im going to do with this girl that likes me. and i dont know what you guys think, but i think having to figure out what im going to do with my life is a tad bit more important than some girl. idk anyways. yea im kinda going through the same shit as you. but you seem a little bit deeper in the hole than i am. so good luck. dont give up
I go to Mount Watchusett Community College. I like it there, nice school, good people. Im trying to get shit sorted out and get some cash on my side, im sure the judge will just give me a 6 am to 6 pm cerfue to use my car. Sucks, but ALOT better then being THAT fucked.
Yeah dude your life seems pretty fucked up right now...I would never want to move back with the folks. But ya know what I thought when I opened this thread? THE ROCK BOTTOM THE ROCK BOTTOM!!!
Hey man its no big deal, just go to the coiurthouse and tell the judge you need a restricted licsence, The judge gives these out ONLY for work and school. You will be fine if you just do that.
just drive how did since i was 14, with no liscense.......... i NEVER got caught stay safe, and non suspicsious and your okay.
i aree w/everyone else on the restricted license. my friend trashed - seriously, and miserably trashed her car drunk. when she got to the hospital her blood alchohol level was 0.9, not.09 but 0.9. she basically told the judge that if she lost her license, and therefore her job and education - all she would have left was partying and that it would essentially destroy the parts of her life most important while having no effect on the circustances wich caused her to become that drunk. they gave her a restricted lisence - if they'll do that for her they should for u. drunk driving (she wasn't even 21 either!) is way worse than speeding. this was in mass too - so it should be same laws....
Get a restricted license like everyone else is saying. If that doesn't work then just take a bus to school. If you can't take a bus, then if I were you I would just drive without a license anyways. It's highly unlikely you'll get caught unless you're doing something illegal. The education program you're in doesn't sound good. I would never go in a program where missing one day will get you kicked out. Shit happens (I.E. your situation) and I can't make that type of gaurantee that I'll be there everyday. What kind of education program is this? There might be other alternatives available. If I were you I'd really try and work on moving back out. If you got a part-time job, got a student loan, or got a grant, or a combination of the 2, I think you'd be able to live on your own and go to school.
i'm sorry, but i'm gonna have to call bullshit on this one. as per the University of Texas med school website: BAC .40% - .50%: You are probably in a coma. The nerve centers controlling your heartbeat and respiration are slowing down, and it's a miracle if you survive. so you're telling me that this GIRL had a bac TWICE the potentially lethal dose, and was still able to get herself into a car and drive it for a little bit? i don't buy it for 3 seconds. you heard wrong, son. it's alright though, when i was in high school, this girl got herself hospitalized with alcohol poisoning (in a coma for 6 hours, as per her mom), and we all heard her bac was .8, but when i waited tables, her mom came in, and as we were talking she told me her actual bac, which was .38. .38 and she was in a coma. there's no way your friend had a .9, period. but yeah, original poster, you can get a restricted license, just be really nice, clean, basically a good ole boy who messed up and is trying to right the ship. as long as you're nice, respectful, and have a wee little bit of desperation in your voice, the judge will give you that restricted license. it sucks that you can't just go do what you want, but you can definitely come back from this. it's gonna all work out. you'll go to school, get a job, move out of your parents place, and then coast a bit. it'll work out.
That driving suggestion might work...unless they're looking for you. If you stay the speed limit and stop completely and obey everythign you'd be fine. But I'm too paranoid for that. I'm sorry bro...best of luck
