College


When college is costing over 50 thousand,

what would be cheaper?

Going straight to work,

while dealing with the backlash of your parents being disappointed,

or paying thousands of dollars in books to drop out the next year?

Waste of time.

When people are saying and encouraging to spend the money

but saying not to get the morning classes

“it'll be the worst choice in your life.”

but the best will be going to a small community college.

“No that's for losers that don't even try to be successful

you'll get the best experience with leaving everything behind and being alone.”

why would i leave the one i love?

she has been with me since forever it seems.

why not experience it together and forever.
