Kso, I learned I can possibly get quiet a few scholarships - [though I have to work for two]


1 - Being under 4'10"-4'11". I'm 4'9".5 8D I haven't grown for 3 years, so I'm pretty sure I'm good ;D People who teased me about my height can kiss it xD
2 - Being left handed/ambidextrous. I'm going to teach myself to be able to do stuff with both hands [Going to be a vet, might need it]
3 - Bilingual. Right now I'm learning Spanish, then I'm going to learn Sign language, and then French. Pretty sure I can, since I'm only 16, and have a while between me and college.

I'm going to try to look for more.

Nuuuu~ I'm just half an inch too tall xD I haven't grown in like 5 years. I dunno if that's a good thing. x3
Short people FTW!


Sign language is such a pretty language my friend says and she just introduced me to it. I have to agree. I must go learn it faster now! :]

How old are you?

I'm turning 17 in 3 months xD

@Olimpt

French is more for fun

As a vet, I have to know Spanish and Sign language [Or it's better I know it] so that I can communicate with clients who can't speak english.

I still wanna learn french though x3

There are a lot of crazy scholarships out there, haha. Some are so specific, it's difficult to imagine anyone applying for them. 😋

I'm the recipient of a left-handed scholarship! It's very nice to be recognized. XD

Teach my kids French so I can tell them shut up when they're misbehaving in the future [When they're born. I'm no where near kids xD]

Once I tried to teach myself to write left handed.. It didn't work. XD
But, I'm in all gifted-accelerated classes, and I have either all A's or A's and B's.. So maybe that will help 😋

There is defiantly a ton of random thing they give scholarships for.

For the bilingual, I'm pretty sure you have to be fluent in the second language or grown up speaking it. I don't think taking it as a class will count. Unless you are crazy good with languages! 😊

Good deal. 😊 I hope that works. Look for scholarships in things you like too. My best friend got a huge scholarship to a school for being theater. She had to go to an interview and stuff but they gave her like 20,000 dollars!!!

Lol, maybe if you volunteer at like a shelter (or started) I'm sure they would have some kind of scholarship for you, and it would help any schools you try to get in to, to like you, you could even see if you could volunteer at your local vet! 😊 That would look great on a transcript going to a vet school!! Have you looked at Cornell they are a really good vet school. 😊

@Nkiay

I have to go to UNCG [Local university] because I have a cockatoo with separation anxiety and will mutilate herself if I'm not with her for a while, so I'll have to commute.

Can't take her to the dorms, she screams

But it's okay :]


I'm thinking of working at a ranch [as a helper with the animals and growing fruit] and volunteering on the weekends as a kennel cleaner

that would be cool! Ranches are super fun(says the girl with horses) you could transfer somewhere after 1 or two years and get an appartment/house and take her with you. 😊 I wanna do that so bad so I can get a snake! My momma hates snakes. lol

My dad actually wants me to still live at our house when I'm going to college, and save up for my own house with the money I save from dorm/rooming fees.


And I love horses

I sorta had one, but he was my uncle's and he sold him. When I get my own house, I'm going to have horses, cows, and some quails, chickens, and maybe a duck [Duck, courtesy by @furfur]

I'm going to see about getting milk and eggs from the ranch, since the ones from stores are starting to scare me with their steroids or they're really expensive.



I can't do anything until my brother gets a driver's licence. And I'm going to pay him to drive me,

Sounds like you got this all figured out!! 😃

The only thing about living at have is you don't always get the whole collage experience. Make sure to hang out on campus and make friends. Most of my girl friends lived in my dorm, and I noticed that a few of my friends that were living at home didn't meet as many people. But it is defiantly worth the savings!!

You sound like my therapist XD

Lmfao, I'm going to go out and do stuff, if I can find people who like the same stuff as me.. My idea of fun is sitting and watching a movie/reading a book instead of partying - so if I find book worms who like movies I'm good to go B]

Don't you have to write an essay on what being left-handed means to you or something like that?

What's sad is, when people think of nerds, they think of hipsters. Nerds are people who will fight you to the death about a movie/book/show/science/etc xD
