Yes, be POSITIVE! You can do anything you put your mind too. I am 23 and just went back to school. I would start looking up colleges online. I know that Portland Community College is a GREAT place to start. Also Anthem College does nursing and what not. You should look into the both of them and see what they have to offer you! Good luck, I know you can do it.... :)

DO NOT marry him. I've been in a similar position like this, and don't change your life to fit around a relationship, because a strong relationship will follow with what you want to do with your life. If he wants to get married tell him to wait until after college. I dropped out of college once because a guy wanted to get married and live together, and have a family, and I still remember it as the biggest mistake I've ever made. Please please please don't make the mistake I made, it will be nothing but suffering and misery. The hardest part is the year comes around when you SHOULD have graduated, and the realization that you have nothing. It's humiliating, depressing, embarrassing, just everything bad put into one. I know you don't know me but please oh please don't do that. I'm literally begging you. you don't want to put yourself through what I've already been through.

Well if u feel tht u love him but at the same time u don’t find him caring for ur interests then u need to make ur feelings meet the reality of his feelings. All u shud do as per my opinion is to speak in a calm but definite manner to him about ur feelings n preferences & also making him understand the need for mutual undrstndng. If he is a guy for u then he shud b willing to love u emotionally aswell. U shud keep a tag on ur relationship from now itself so tht u don’t regret later, after all life is more than the flowery kind of love tht seems in the beginning. There’s a saying I have heard of- Don’t marry the person whom u love but rather marry the person who loves u (n bcos of this u shud also start loving him as he loves u)

Your age difference causes there to be a difference in your view of the immediate future. Your boyfriend is older and thus has a sense of urgency to begin his adult life. While you on the other hand feel now is a time for you to secure a way to make a living in your adult life. The question is what is your motivation? Do you truly love this man and want to spend the rest of your life with him? If so, there should be no sacrifice to great. On the other hand he must understand that you are young and feel the need to further yourself in life, if he truly loves you. If you do not have the love for this man that makes you want to be with him for life, then you should not waste his time or yours and move on with your goals. After all, what is the point of a relationship, if it has no hope for marriage? There are opportunities in many places, love is the greatest of them all. Love is not a conditional commitment, only given if your partner makes the decisions you see as right. In closing, do what your conscience tells you is right, aside from thoughts of your own personal gain. You will be happy without guilt in the end, if you choose to do what you know is right.

Guys, please help me translate the following into french
Guys, please help me translate the following into french?
Guys, please help me translate the following into french.. GOOGLE TRANSLATE isn't very helpful. It just mixes the words and confuses me.. i hope you guys can help me... my aunt is french speaking. she is based in france... she doesn't know how to speak english.. she only knows french.. please help me... this is only chance to tell her what i want her to know... Dear Aunt, How are you and aunt anne? I hope you have adjusted right now. Until now it is so painful just to think that grandmother is gone. Although I was not the favored one, I know she loved me because I felt it... I will never forget what she has done to me and to my family, what she taught us, the good values she instilled in our lives, how caring and loving friend, daughter, sister, mother and grandmother she was. All her good memories will be in our hearts forever... I looked up to her all my life. I will surely miss her. Until now I can believe she is dead, that she cannot be with me, with us anymore. It was really sudden. I thought she was going to reach the age of 100.. but I guess God has other plan. It all happened for a reason. I'm just sad because did not have the chance to be with her for longer time and because I was not able to tell her how much I love her, how much I appreciate her. But I realized we all have to move on because in that way, she will be at peace, she will be happy in heaven.. Now she is together with Abuelito, Tito Joey, Tito Butch and Tito Chichirico.. I believe she has a special place in heaven because she did very well here on earth when she was here. She treated her neighbors fairly. She never lost her faith in God that is why she really has a special part in God's heart.. Let us just hope that Abuelita is watching over us, guiding us and praying for us.. I wrote to you because I want you to know how I feel right now.. And I just want to thank you for giving me hope (for sending me back to school) to have a better future. Right now, I feel so blessed knowing that someday I can have a better life. Thank you again. Please tell Tita Trini that I love her so much. For me, she is still my mother.. I just hope she feels the same way.. Regarding to my schooling next June, I have decided to take up nursing to UERM (it is so far one of the best nursing schools in manila). I realized that my previous course was not really my thing.. For now, I need to have money. I am being practical. If I take up nursing, a lot of job awaits me abroad. I realized that if I really want to study that ''Dream course'', might as well, take it up abroad because it is also my dream to study there. So it is final. I am taking up nursing.. As of now I still find the right school. It is too late to try to take an entrance examination in UST and UP Manila. Usually they are giving the examination on the month of June, July and August. How bad! they are rank one and two in the best nursing schools in the philippines.. Aunts, I do not want you to be disappointed and I do not want to waste this great opportunity that you are going to give me.. So I promise that I will do my best and I will make sure that in 4 to 5 years, we will all be together there in France.. I am so excited!!

Chère tante, Comment êtes-vous et Anne ma tante? J'espère que vous avez réglé l'heure actuelle. Jusqu'à présent, il est si pénible que de penser que la grand-mère a disparu. Même si je n'étais pas l'option préconisée, je sais qu'elle m'a aimé, car je l'ai senti ... Je n'oublierai jamais ce qu'elle a fait pour moi et pour ma famille, ce qu'elle nous a appris, les bonnes valeurs qu'elle instillé dans nos vies, comment attentif et affectueux ami, fille, soeur, mère et grand-mère qu'elle a été. Tous ses bons souvenirs seront dans nos coeurs pour toujours ... Je levai les yeux à elle toute ma vie. Je vais sûrement me manquer.

Je pensais qu'elle allait atteindre l'âge de 100 ans .. mais je crois que Dieu a un plan d'autres. Tout s'est passé pour une raison. Je suis juste triste parce que n'ai pas eu la chance d'être avec elle pendant plus de temps et parce que je n'ai pas pu lui dire combien je l'aime, combien je l'apprécie. Mais j'ai réalisé que nous devons tous passer à autre chose, car de cette façon, elle sera en paix, elle sera heureuse dans le ciel .. Maintenant, elle est, avec Abuelito, Tito Joey, Tito Tito et Butch Chichirico .. Je crois qu'elle a une place spéciale dans le ciel, car elle a très bien fait ici sur la terre quand elle était ici. Elle traitait ses voisins assez. Elle n'a jamais perdu sa foi en Dieu, c'est pourquoi elle a vraiment un rôle particulier dans le cœur de Dieu .. Espérons seulement que Abuelita veille sur nous, en nous guidant et en priant pour nous .. Je vous ai écrit parce que je veux que vous sachiez ce que je ressens en ce moment ..

Could you check my writing in English(travel)
Could you check my writing in English(travel)?
I am a student learning English. I just wrote something to practice English. Could you check if there are some awkward expressions? I am grateful to you. When I went to France, I stayed at B&B run by the immigrant from my country. Owners were married couple who immigrated to France 5 years ago. What bothered me is that the male owner/host was extremely hostile to my country-his ex-country and expressed his feelings without screening. We had breakfast together for 5 days and then he always talked about how horrible my country was and how shameful it was to live there. It sounded like we (including other quests) were foolish not to leave it. I wanted to be nice, so I just smiled and at times nodded trying to understand his stance. However, he frequently crossed the line. He said that my country people are too selfish and they abandon their parents on street. Plus, he said that nurses at nursing home tried to kill their patients because they didn't like to care for them and their adult children wanted it. (I have worked as a nurse at a nursing home. In my experience, nothing could be further from the truth.) When he asked me how my trip was, I said "Paris is fabulous, but I came here without my husband because he could not get such a long holiday, so I am a little bit sorry about it. Whenever I see good things, they just remind me of him." He explicitly sneered, saying "What a useless feeling! You will fight him once you see his face." I was speechless because he didn't know anything about me or my husband. Even when I said to my friends that I missed my husband, he laughed at me behind me, talking to himself "You will hate him anyway." He kept talking to guests how good Paris is. He said everything is almost free. I asked "Where does the government get such money?" He answered "Because France is a developed country unlike your country." I just shut my mouth.
