      I remember when I first got a full time job. I had finished school at that point. Every day I was just so fucking exhausted and wondered how the hell adults do this every day until they die. And then you have some people who do a zillion things after work and I’m just like how the fuck??

      I still like working a milion times better than school because…1. I have the type of job that I cannot bring home with me. I don’t have to constantly worry about homework and can really just fully relax at the end of the day. I never could when I was in school. 2. I get to earn my own money and buy whatever the hell I want (so long as I can afford it).

    Now that i get paid and dont hate my life i dont mind getting up early. Not ideal but yay money.

    My education was a fucking joke and all the people who said that I’d miss highschool are wrong. Highschool and school in general was awful and i was very checked out for a large majority of it.

    I remember reading in college and essay about school is for making you tolerant doing the same thing say in day out for 50+ years 8 hours a day. It really clicked and made understand why I did so poorly in high school but thrived in college.
