You lucky mayne. It took me 10 years to get one degree...

That's because I transferred between 3 schools in 2 states and had math classes that took me years to actually (I'm horrible at math).

It be's like that sometimes, I'm also horrible at Math. As long as you got it done can't nobody tell you shyt

I graduated high school with a 1.8 gpa. I had six F's one marking period in 11th grade (lol/smh). So naturally after graduation, I ended up working a bunch of sh*tty ass warehouse jobs. Three years of pushing around pallet jacks and forklifts :sadcam: When I turned 21, I decided to go to a small 4 year college. 900 miles away in a rural backwoods type town. Got a 4.0 gpa my freshman year.....transferred to a major university the next year and leveraged my grades for a 20K a year scholarship. This is my last year :blessed:




Straight F's in high school to a scholarship in college :whew:

I went to college and flunked most of my classes the first year so I came home and went crazy basking in thugism. 3 of my homie got life on a murder beef and I realized that could have easily been me so I went to the local state college and finished up a year later than I was supposed to graduate but I DID IT!

did some college,
got kicked around by family who didn't have my best interest
did a lot of dirt
went to jail-

look, man. All you cats out there that's wondering if college is the right choice or if you should stick with it...

College is NOT the only way.

But it GREATLY enhances your chances of standing comfortably on your own two feet.

shyt really is like a map of "point a" to "point j/m/q" or whatever. School>college>somewhat comfortable.

The longer you're out of school, the more "grown person" responsibility you got. Paying yoru own bills, keeping a roof over your own head, taking care of other people....

The more you do that, the further away you'll be from ever going back.

I'm the LAST person who'll try to feed you the brainless ass system of "go to college and you'll automatically be a thousandaire",

but figure out what you wanna do. if it involves higher education, or even learning a trade..... go master the shyt and apply pressure.
