this is bullshit

no one takes you seriously anymore. you're just a college student. you are still young. you are still learning. you have not been fully brainwashed, yet. you have to get a good job! you have to make enough money! you don't want to be starving, do you? then go to college. go to college cause that will fix all your problems. one piece of paper and 200,000 dollars of debt later. welcome to college. welcome to college! where you'll try hard to get good grades and be up all night. you will never know a good night's rest for the next 4 years. more anxiety than high school. more work than high school. more people than high school. more bull shit than high school. liberal arts education is supposed to be great! but what if you hate science and math and you just want to write? I hate my classes. I hate analyzing books. I hate analyzing movies. I hate writing essays. I hate talking. I have a C+ in one class because I never talk. I hate talking. I hate talking. when I get my degree will it be different? will I be different? will my life change forever? will I finally be the member of society that society wants me to be?
