End of An Era

So now I sit in my room filling out on-line applications trying to get a job, competing with coaches and people who have composite social studies certified, I started to think about all of those things that I have learned though my six years of college.

I learned that school is not easy and that in high school I was just a lot smarter than a lot of people. You may think that this is very ego centric and jerky, but look at the facts. In high school I barely studied and usually did the minimum amount of work in class and I made mostly A's and B's with the occasional C. Whereas I knew a lot of people that did not study and failed or did study and failed. So I am smarter than them.

I learned that school is a commitment that needs to be taken seriously, because if you don't take it seriously you will end up repeating classes and delaying graduation (in my case till August). Also with the new law here in Texas if you go over your degree plan by 30 hours you will now have to pay out of state tuition, unlike people who started before this year you get 45 hours over your degree plan before they have to pay out of state tuition. Reflecting on that for a moment I realize that this state is trying to force people into making up their minds as quickly as possible. This is not cool because many people switch their majors in school and now the state is punishing them for wanting to pursue a degree in a field they may end up enjoying. Oh well we will talk about that later.

I have learned that no matter how old you get there will always be drama. This is ridiculous I know but it is something that happens. And how it is dealt with in college can be different than high school. But that is only if the people decide they want to handle it differently. I have also learned that people will backstab you just like high school. And before you think that business is different than school, think differently because just like in high school, college and business backstabbing will occur. True it will be different in each stage, high school for grades, a girl or an cool club or sports position, college for a girl, grace with a professor, or the officer in an organization or credit from a project and then in the business or real world for a job, promotion or girl. Its all the same shit just on a new day and different place.

I learned that work is done by the few, appreciated by few and taken advantage of by many. This is crap, you know when someone is nice enough to do something for you before you ask or anyways and does not just do it to get the attention, then that is something that should be appreciated. When someone does something because it is their job then they do not need to receive the gratitude but if they do a good job let them know, and if it involves food and you do not like it, then you need to step up and doing something yourself because you probably have not done anything to help them or all you did was get in their way and caused more problems or frustration for the person doing something. I have also learned that if you do not take credit for something you did someone else will and then make you look like shit, because of this I always try to give credit where credit is due.

I know a lot of this is cynical and depressing maybe but that's how I see things. And I'm really just tired of a lot of the bullshit that is happening around. (Sorry for the language)

Well now I'm off to have fun or go to bed. Just remember that if you dig deep enough you will find what you are looking for, and that quitters never go anywhere.

It is our choices...that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

Courage doesn't always roar. Sometimes, it is the quiet voice at the end of the day saying, "I will try again tomorrow".

Well I walk on Saturday so if you are in Nacogdoches hit up the coliseum and see and cheer for me or your other friends. Booyah!
