She's your mum... of course she does...

Good for you... at your age the sky is the limit as to what you can do with yourself.. you've got so many options... listen to your heart and you'll figure it out... (check your local library as well for some career type books, they usually have quizzes and such in them to see where your interests lie...

another suggestion I might make, if you can't find a job, is to volunteer - it looks good on a resume and while it m ight not be a paid position, it's still a job that you can learn marketable skills from .. i think you were doing this during school anyhow... at the sex ed center.. maybe it's something you could continue becuase you seemed to enjoy educating (either that or i haven't been paying enough attention(

Keep your head up... you are OK...
