Ive never been deep south. The closest was probably Abilene Texas - Very Christian, very dry (no bars) very bible belt, although you could buy an automatic machine gun from the gun shop on a Sunday, but the Christian bookstore nextdoor was closed Sundays, so you couldn't buy a bible - go figure 
I do watch Discovery channel on TV here, so while I wouldn't say I know the environment you live in, I think I know enough to understand the challenge you face.
You've taken one of the biggest steps on the road to accepting who you are. You've come out to yourself. Don't underestimate the significance of that step, as there are lots of people of all ages who have all sorts of personal issues because they cant accept who they are. And you have a close friend that you've confided in, so Id say you are doing just fine
Go to college, break free, meet people and discover a whole new world out there! You can be straight during the holidays when you're at home. Its not as hard as you may think. I was straight when home and around family for 35 years before I came out to them LoL.
