i've got some more for you here bud

>> No.4910284

i'm at a community college, no major declared, no direction at all. my tuition is waived so it's only costing me my time but i'm like two years in and still have no fucking clue what i'm doing. i'm awful at math and i've heard how hard it is to get a job with a non technical degree so i feel as if i'm inevitably fated to drop out

but community college has been a nice supplement to my reading and studying at home. i do feel like i've taken something away from the experience so far. and that's not nothing, right?

In 3 years I'll be living the dream of teaching, hopefully 5 years after that I'll be the god of my chosen school.

do you need a fuckin' crazy good gpa to get admitted into a school good enough to get you a job as a principal?

>> No.4910411

>>4910389
No. The majority of principals (at least here) start out as teachers at their chosen school and then get their masters degree in education while working.

Then you just wait until the vice principal or principal die or retire.

gonna try and do this without it turning into a massive tl;dr...

english 101/102 were great. i took a really engaging religion class. philosophy was okay. politics was neat. generally these classes dissected some canon (lolita, cat's cradle, harvard lectures on religion from james and whitehead).

turns out i've really enjoyed the less "practical" classes. and the real shame is that i'm too broke to take on student loans unless it's somehow going to make me a little more socially mobile. i live on my own already and already work 40 hours a week. which means my grades probably won't be good enough for grad school. which means i need to study something in undergrad which will be potentially useful, i guess

it's nice that some people get to study things that they're interested in at post secondary but i'm fuckin' broke. i eat ramen and pbnj and boxed milk every day and i can't do it forever

Seconded. NEET is the total embracing of this fallen generation in all of its glory. Free time is the most precious resource, and most waste the majority of it working away their health for money, and then spending money to recoup their health.

Missing out on the NEET,

Think of a skilled trade that will pay your bills, and study it at your community college. Study literature in your free time and become an over educated electrician. That's what I would do if I weren't two years into an engineering degree.
