> [@Jenn](#): > > i cant pass shit so I’m done. Getting F after F after F isn’t getting me anywhere… PARTY TIME!!! sounds like you need to grow up a bit before spending more money. Some people aren’t mature enough to handle college w/o state law making you attend and pass like high school. Give it a few years…in the mean time don’t get sucked up in the club scene and turn into a club slut. ---

when i graduated high school i didnt think college was for me. it was laziness not for lack of intelligence because i graduated with honors from west allegheny hs. i got a full time job at abercrombie of all places. it was nice having more money that i knew what to do with being that i still live at home. after a year i felt left out and tried to get myself back in school. it was a huge mistake on my part. i missed the money and ended up failing 3 of 4 classes i attempted at CCAC. i was still too immature to realize why a college education is important. well i bounced between dead end jobs until i lost my most recent job about 6 months ago. i havent found anything better than 7 or 8 bucks an hour. during my job search i realized that i have absolutely no oppurtunity for more because i lack a college education. i decided to finally make an intelligent choice and go back to school. so this fall im poised to be a 22 year old freshman at RMU while all of my friend are graduating college with a bachelor’s degrees. it kinda sucks to feel left behind but i know this is the best choice i have ever made. dont be stupid, stay in school and put effort into.

Now you have to have a degree to be an MIT. i know. they made that rule at almost the same time i was made a MIT then assistant. i ended up becoming an assistant so fast because i worked in a kids store that had both managers quit. so an assistant manager from south hills became manager and i was promoted to assistant. ---
