when does the HOPE scholarship expire?

i live in georgia, and i was wondering if there is an expiration date on the HOPE scholarship. i want to get a job by the time i graduate, and i want to know if/when it expired so i know how long i can take off to work full time. i was thinking 6 months to a year?

So, I’ve questioned both family and friends, but they’re biased so it hasn’t helped me one bit.

My boyfriend and I recently started dating after being fantastic friends for years.

The only problem? I live in Georgia, he lives in Alabama.

We both want to make this work, and we know we can’t do long distance.

Now, I’ve just graduated high school, and he’s only 3 semesters away from graduating institution.

We’ve both be debating whether I’m going to go there, or he’s going to go here.

Which do YOU reckon would be the best?

If he went here, he’d have to find a new job (his current one pays well for a institution apprentice), and transfer schools.
If I went there, I’d have to pay for institution instead of going on a scholarship to Alabama.
I meant he lives in Nebraska, Not Alabama
I’m not “falling” for whatever thing.
We’ve talked in this area marriage,
but the come forth at the moment, is where to live.
and I am the last person to play house.
He knows that I don’t place up with it.

My mom has been very strict with me because she knows I have a chance at becoming a pro basketball player and she doesn’t want whatever thing to interfere with it. She place me in this team called Atlanta Select so that Institution Coaches can see me and wants me to register for the Clearance House (a place you sign up so institution coaches can see your grades). Note that I never had a adage in any of this.

..But that’s not what I want. I just wanted to do a touch to get away from home because I had an abusive stepfather. Once I found out I liked it, I wanted to play owing to high school. I never thought in this area making it my career and I don’t want a sport scholarship, I wanted an art, singing, or HOPE scholarship.

My mom made me quit art and singing.

She made me get into Weight Training at my school. That’s how I met my boyfriend. We’ve known each other for a year now and became close friends and now have been dating for nearly 9 months. His mom likes me and so does his family (not related, but are pretty close as a family. Huge household lol.) My mom liked him, but really turned her back on him and pressured me more.

I left to go to Las Vegas for a National Basketball Tournament and while I was there, my neighbor (which we were close and swore not to say whatever thing) told my mom that I had sex with my boyfriend. I had really plotted to tell her once I got back, because I had a scare and thought I had missed my period. When I got home, all hell broke loose. She and my boyfriend came to pick me up at the airport at 5am (blame overbooked flight). Once he was at home, she started yelling at me asking me all these questions. I questioned my neighbor if she told her and she keeps adage she didn’t. She STILL says that today!

So yea.Today I felt weird and I went to the bathroom and for some reason my kidney infection has came back for the 4th time. The first 2 times was even before I had sex. So this is the 4th infection this year and I reconized the signs and told my mom. She told me that if I quit messing around with my boyfriend, then I wouldn’t have this infection. I got pissed and told her that I couldn’t have a real talk with her.

And you know what the sad thing is? The first time I got my kidney infection I told her I had a touch incorrect and didn’t know what it was, she laughed and told me I’m making an excuse to go to the doctor so I can get birth control (I was still a virgin!). A link days later, I was nearly in the emergency room because I was extremely dehydrated and malnourished from throwing up. She refused to take me because she thought I was pregnant and was going to take me somewhere to get an abortion.

And now she’s lacking to pull this shit? (Excuse my language.) I know she doesn’t want me to get pregnant, but if she didn’t nearly kill me the first time I got sick, then I would have been more open. Now she’s treating me like I’m a terrible child and my boyfriend like the devil. My boyfriend was more concerned in this area me and offered to take me to the sickbay. I was on IVs for 2 days and out of school for like a week.

The reason I was back so soon was because I had to go to basketball practice. I told her I’m moving out and living with his family when I turn 17 because in Georgia that’s the legal moving out age. Point is, I’m not allowed to make my own choices and I’m barely able to choose which institution I can go to. Am I overreacting? (Sorry for making this a long tale, but I couldn’t shorten it and get my point across.)

I got interested in programming in high school and I got bought my first computer with scholarship money after I graduated in 2005. I did a lot of experimenting with different languages and gradually got better at php/mysql applications. After in this area 3 years of playing around with my scripts I naturally wanted to build a website. I started small; login/logout scripts, then I figured out how to upload photos and videos and even converting videos to flash in the process. I built a web crawler and a simple search engine. I won 3rd place in yahoo’s hack week at georgia tech with a flex application I built. Then I started to make an alternative to craigslist, but after a few thousand lines of code I started to feel like no one wants to use my stuff, besides there’s kijiji, which is by now better, so I went back to the drawing board. I thought job search engines are crap, so maybe I can make a better one. I worked and worked and had the basics online, but I shot myself down again and figured monster is too huge of a competiter. Then I started to make rss feed service, got a basic site setup, but I quickly found that that area was dominated by feedburner. My next thought was to build a dating site. I built lots of features, search results were sorted by compatibility and everything, but I just couldn’t bring myself to place it online because its been done by so many other companies that I can hardly contend with, plus I want to do a touch original. So, I started to make wedding planner service, nope, weddingwire has that on lock down. I thought I could make a collaborative painting tool, webcanvas by now did it. Tried to make a tutorial database, ehow has it by now. It seems like I am incapable of coming up with a touch original, and even if I did, I hardly have the confidence to go owing to with it. I’m a bit of a loner so I don’t have a handy co-founder. I know I have the programming skills to make fantastic services, but I’m terrible at design and I have no money to find help. I get so frustrated when I reckon in this area how crowded the web is and that there’s no room for small ol me. My dream is to make a web service that reaches millions of people and changes the world, but I feel like all the excellent thoughts are full and its all just too huge for me to tackle. Any suggestions?
