Sad News, My parents are making me go into Job Corps

Isn't it possible to get a part time job just to earn some cash. Or are your classes too spaced out for it. If worse comes to worse can't you just come in for the finals and just use that for your grades. I mean there shouldn't be that many assignments left and you could probably use the coming break to study whats left.
The only problem I have is transportation because I have no way of getting to Stockton from the SJC unless if I take Greyhound and look at the bus schedules, but my parents won't even get the point that it's impossible for me to be physically present to do the classes and Job Corps at once.
 
Alright, how about this. I'll just request for my transcripts to be evaluated and transferred over Sacramento City College, talk to a counselor over there and see if I could retake all of my current classes and finish having my A.A. Degree mailed to me in time. That way, I could pay my own way into college and I will have enough time to get into Sac State after I am finish with Job Corps because I plan to live at the dorms over there for a short time and then move out and find a room to rent.

How's that sound.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that the only reason why they want to me to go is that I am currently living in their house and they expected me to be on my own because they are about to get the house ready to be rented out.

Okay, here's the problem. Last semester, the college allowed to let me to attend the walk in graduation ceremony, but I had purpose withdrew from my Physical Science course online because it was very difficult to pass the class and the teacher was grading the course by a curve. I was very angry with myself because I worked so hard to pass that online course but the teacher didn't bother giving us extra credit assignments. He wanted us to do the workbook and study the practice test. I mean it was simple, but the actual tests were not even accurate to the practice tests themselves. It was like he got it from something that wasn't related from the textbook itself nor the workbook.

that's why I should have taken Geography last semester instead, but now it's too late. So that means, I gotta do everything all over again at SCC all because my own parents were expecting me to have my A.A. Degree mailed in once I start getting into Job Corps which means they have the worst sense of expectations for me as their son. I ain't frickn' Superkid you know.

What's even sadder is that they didn't reminded me to talk to my counselor and my instructors weeks ago or even asked me every other week.

Now, I remember. They said that on my Pre-arrival orientation that my trait at Security won't start until January.

Be honest you guys. I just had a talk with my counselor and she said that if I ask for my final grade earlier, then my Geography instructor is gonna get into trouble. I mean she looked at me thinking that I didn't know what my goal is, but I know what the goal was from the beginning. Get the A.A. Degree and get into Job Corps, but since I blew it last semester because I dropped out of my Physical Science class online, there's just no way I could be able to finish this semester to get my A.A. Degree. The only options I have are to at least get into a Family and Consumer Science online course, but everything's full. Option #2 is to get into Sacramento City College and talk to a counselor in person to tell them that I need something from the Natural Science section to get the frickin' A.A. Degree as soon as I can. But if I don't do it, then I would lose my catalog rights.

What would you do in a situation like this?
