• i really don't want the pressure of education.. i know you may think i'm crazy.. that education is what i'm going to need in life to be successful. really? i might get a job, make average income, maybe more. but i just want to be happy. if i'm not happy like that, what's the education i've got put to use for? i'm happy that i even DO have an education, but i'm just contemplatin why i revolve my decisions on it. there's more to life, you know? not education wise, but schoolwise. there's a difference. i hate how i have to focus on school. actually, it's all my decision, but i'm not quite happy with it. i just wish i were different. i want to start living. right now. so badly. it's just too hard when you have something, but you think the other way leads to something better. you never know though. there's too much in life. i honestly don't want to be spending time in school for like what, 16+ years? i can be out seeing the world. right after high school, i want to travel. but i'm worried because maybe it's not the best decision to make. but i'll never know. i wan to go to uni right after. maybe i'm just worried i won't be on the same pace as everyone else. it shouldn't matter, but it does. i'm terribly afraid. i can't trust myself. very pathetic, but i'm a pathetic person. i wish i were a butterfly.... maybe a ladybug, or an ant. so i can view the world from down there.

• dude or lady whatever you happen to be, you do as you see right. who cares if most people will tell you that you are wasting your life. most people will tell you that because most people follow the most followed path, which is go to uni and get a diploma on whatever which entitles you to make 35k a year and makes you middle class aka progress. thats not progress thats just what most people do because they are afraid to really try different things. traveling will give you tons of world experience and you will never be bored when traveling.

  
  

  Right after highschool i took my beat up car, along with a friend, and we cruised the united states west coast. six "wasted" months is what my dad said, a year actually if you count the time it took me to enroll in a university... which i ended up dropping out after a year. i dropped out because i realized it wasnt for me. i was a good student in highschool and once i got into college alot of stuff vanished from my brain, so if you take a break to travel keep studying, keep your mind sharp or when you get to college you will be a bit confused.
