Hmm....you're making me feel bad now :( Maybe I'll release a couple of them....the guy with the sunglasses can take the day off, and so can the angry one....and I'll even let the confused one go....but that's it!:p

I'm glad things worked out for you. I have no doubt things are going to work out for me too, even if it's not over-night. Not everyone who goes to college has a problem finding a job, it all depends on the field you choose.

I don't regret the time I spent in college for anything. It made me a better person, and it's something I'm really proud of. I never thought of my prof's as opinionated people who told me how to think. In fact, they encouraged us to make up our own minds and become our own person. It wasn't a waste of time at all. If anything, it was time/money extremely well spent.

I'm going to have to second this. I went to college but now work for the railroad with a bunch of guys who didn't go to school. and every now and then one of em will bring it up that I could have gotten this job right out of high school and not have had to "waste my time" at college.

so anyways, if this was myspace, I'd give you some kudos for that.

Thanks :)

I just always feel that it's usually those who didn't go to college that like to say it's such a "waste"....how would they know? THEY DIDN'T GO ;) And if they know people who went, and thought it was a waste....that doesn't apply to everyone...and if you can honestly go to college for 4 years and think it was a waste...then you did something wrong, in my opinion...you should've taken something away from it.

Even if I end up doing something that I didn't get my degree in, I'll always have my degree...and nobody can take that away from me, and it's still an accomplishment that I'm proud of.

I've gained plenty of "real world" experience as well...things that nobody could teach me in college. However, I've also gained knowledge from college that I could never have gained had I not gone. Just b/c I chose to go, doesn't mean I missed out on the "real world"...and just b/c I'm having trouble finding a job right now, doesn't mean I'll never get one. I'd never even get the opportunity to get into my field of work if I didn't go.

And again...to say that prof's tell you how to think is ignorant...I'm sure there are some who may be more forceful with their opinions than others, but that wasn't my experience at all.

I don't criticize people who chose not to go...so it's kind of lame for other people to criticize/laugh at those who do. Waste of time? Hardly...I wish I could "waste" some more time in college...it was the best thing I ever did.
So yeah...:p That's all I have to say about that:D
