If the journey is gonna cost ya a lot of money, you'd best hope that the destination makes it worthwhile.

OZA said: What an awesome fucking place. A learning institution where thousands of kids could learn exactly what they want and do exactly what they want. You're out for your own self and there is NOTHING stopping you from doing anything in the world (hyperbole, you get it though...).
I didn't really know what I was going into, but I decided to be make the absolute best of it and I realize, after 3 days of awesomeness that I have an AMAZING 4 years (and beyond) ahead of me.
How are you all liking college?
Yup college rocks. Enjoy, get an education, don't get an std.

I've got a ton of degrees (seriously). General education is a thing that you hate at the time, but when you look back on it, you realize that you learned more from general education than from your major. It's really funny how that works, but it happens.
Enjoy general education, that's my advice. It seems at the time like a giant waste of time, but man you will learn stuff from it that five or ten years later you will still remember and look back on and use. Your major teaches you a lot, sure, but it's a lot about one really, really specific thing. General education teaches you a fuckton about everything. I hated it at the time, but now, man... I really look back to my general education. I learned so much from general education.
Also, pick general education classes in things that you're interested in. Don't just pick something because it's open or easy. Pick classes that you have a personal connection to.

No you don't. You just need to learn how to find people you like.

College was fun...I miss it in a way. I only got my AA but I lived on a state university campus. Too many good memories, lots of bad memories too. Tons of girls and drugs...parties and new people...those 2 years were wild
I think i'll be going back to get my bachelors sometime next year...

you don't need a piece of paper that says that, all you need to do is prove it
