A. They also speak Cantonese in Guangzhou. If you want to stay in Guangzhou longer than a tourist you can find a job there and ask them to help you to get a work visa. You can see the site below to get information about applying for a China Visa

A. Once you graduate high school, get some student loans and go away to collage. Use loans if you have to, but try to get grants and scholarships if you can. Talk to your consular at school about that. That's less than a year away, so it will be here before you know it. Get involved with student life, and hang with your dorm mates. Once you get out of your house, you don't have to deal with your mom at all if you don't want to. Remember, collage is better than high school, and the real world (i.e., out on your owen with a job) is better still.
