i have a choice of a college 4 hrs away from home in a big city (Richmond) which isn't the safest place for a young girl like myself but there will def be new experiences to encounter and plenty of things to do to get my mind off of things that are stressing me now.  Prob w/ it is idk if i wanna be that far away i don't have a car so i can't just go and come plus it would be alot of gas.  second not sure if the big city life is for me.. i grew up in a valley of mts and a pretty small town.. i'm scared the setting might scare me or it might thrill me who knows.

then there is a college i'm interested in only 50 mins away.. not as big of a city not even sure what it is maybe a small town idk.. i'm not sure if there are alot of things to do there but i guess i'll see.. i also have a friend there who might be able to take me home on fridays and stuff but idk its only a possibility not a certain promise they made me.  but i would feel closer to home and maybe more comfortable.

idk its really difficult for me to decide but i always think if i don't like one i can always come back i'm not stuck there right?

then sometimes i'm like why don't just go to freakin california or somewhere ha idk.

i just don't have very much money, a car, or a sense of certainty.

plus both schools have great programs i'm interested in the first even has their own medical college which im looking into but the second also has a great med school prep course to get into med school
