Where to begin???

I have 2 months to........pack for college, finalize rooming & Finacial Aid, get a job, lose wieght, and say good bye.  Going to culinary school is just one step closer to my dream of owning my own bakery one day.  Leaving my family & friends behind will be tough but not impossible. I'll be home on most of the weekends seeing I'll only be an hour away.  I feel like they'll suffer more than I will.  You see, for the past two years I've learned to do the house work, cook the meals, and act like mom.  My mother had been in and out of the hospital so seeing I'm the only other woman in the house with 3 men, I had to step forward.  Hell, my mom had missed my Graduation & Graduation party b/c she was in a clinic in Baltimore, Maryland.  Sad... I know.  It's actually a good thing that that had happened b./c it made a a stronger young woman.  Seeing this is my first post I ask whoever reads this to ask my any question and I will try my best to answer.
