Hiatus

College. I am entering my late 20s, which makes me a late-bloomer to this college thing, but I am on track to graduate sooner than any member of my family. My first job was as a VB programmer.

Here are my college tips:

College is a lifestyle. It is kind of like a march through a minefield. Sometimes you will get popped. The way people live in college his highly illegal and highly unhealthy in the long run. Keith Richards is some sort of freak- his lifestyle isn’t something you would want to do over time.

If you get out without a legal issue, you will have some personality ones. People work doubles and then try to pull off studying and people wonder why Adderall is popular.

-Take as much AP as possible in HS.

-CLEP testing

-Community college

-Pick your four-year school wisely

Drop out if you have to. You can always come back. Consider vocational training or a two-year degree. Expand your resume. Don’t get stuck in food service unless you are a well-paid manager.

Don’t get fucked over by landlords.

Debt isn’t good. Avoid it until your last two years. Pick your major. Stick to it, drop out if you need to find yourself. This isn’t your education. You will have to get that on your own.

Why get a degree if its worthless? To emigrate, become and officer in the military, or become a manger. Be careful with this last one- you can just work hard and get this without the degree.
