more thoughts re: yesterday afternoon's post

So let's move forward to the premise that college is bad, because it encourages a culture of excess. Either you meet and fuck a shitton of people, or you drink too much, or drop too much acid, or just overdose on drama. And if you ain't doing any of that, you're probably working way too fucking hard on classes. There are very few careers where you have to pull all-nighters, ever.

But then again, it probably goes back to high school. The reason people explode in college is because their whole life up to that point, they've had to fucking ask permission to go to the fucking bathroom. Freedom is fun! and scary.

Something needs to be done. But not for me, I'm over it, I work for a living.

If you can make money at what you like doing then yay. If you can't so be it.

I just know too many people who are miserable with their jobs and situations and it puts me off.

My job pisses me off a lot but I also get a kick out of it in a weird sense. But I also have a spirit of being really honest with my managers and I get away with some of the lack of school spirit.
