"Big Decisions"

In september, I chose to leave my highschool where I could have enrolled for sixth form, and went to college instead. It meant going by myself to a new place with like 1000s of new people, and not seeing people from my high school as often, even though I knew most of the people in school and was very socialble. But I just needed a change, something new to keep my motivation up.
It wasn't an easy decision, but I needed a change, a new routine, and to meet new people. Although I was skeptical at first, it was the best decision I ever made, and I'm so glad I took the step to do it.

It doesnt sound like much, and its not really,but I was kinda proud of taking the risk of changing like that, and its been the best decision of my life and im much happier now. And having people from my old high school telling me they regret not having the balls to do what I did, makes me feel even better.

So tell me decisions you've made in your life that have been risky but were worth it and that you are proud of. Anything from love to travel...to anything!

I'd hate to go to a 6th-form college that's a part of a school.
Sounds really rubbish.

Glad I went to a totally seperate college.
2nd best in country, by the by.

If you want tough choices ... wait 'til you have to deal with uni shiz.

Yeh thats what I was saying, I didnt make a huge decision at all, its rather minor, but the part I didnt mention was that I did that whilst being very ill, which on hindsight was kinda stupid...but hey.

I just wanted to see what other people have done really, maybe itll help people appreciate decisions theyve made when looking back on them.

I don't think college/sixth-form is a huge decision really.

There's much bigger ones anyway. Probably the biggest I've had to make is where I'll live for the next 3 years of my life at uni.

Good for you man. Always handy to have a spoon with you on a wildlife trek I find...

I poked a badger with a spoon.

I'll never look back.
