Thanks for the replies! Helped me put things into perspective.

I did put my foot down in the beginning, but that's when she threatened to stop paying for out-of-state college so i figured it probably wasn't a good idea to keep it up. There's no way I could keep up with tuition on my own. I know I'm 20 and it's strange that I would be so worried about what my mom thinks, but she does have me by the purse-strings. Also, my parents were chinese born and raised so they aren't really into the "you're independent when you turn 18" idea as far as i can tell, heh.
