Default Graduated from high school, welcome to the real world...

Yesterday i thought was going to be a pretty smooth day, but the longer i sat in the chair outside waiting for my name to be called, the more i thought. i thought about where i would be in 10 years, what friends i would still have friendships with, and if i would succeed in life. i didn't like highschool very much, and im glad to be out and about with my friends, but i am going to miss the high school life. if i were too mess up now it could affect my future life more greatly now. four years went so fast, i remember the first day i walked into that place, and now ill never walk in there again for a class.

you won't miss it.

...unless you never do any other schooling and end up in a low wage redundant job.

trust me, college will be so much better

...unless you stay home and go to community college. then it's like high school all over. definitely LEAVE home to go to school. you'll have a much better time.

High school was definitely fun. Lots of great memories to reminisce about.

But much of your life is still ahead of you. Lots of possibilities and potential! It's an exciting time in your life and enjoy it!

Congratulations!

A lot of college seemed like a waste of time to me as well. IMO, the majority of learning comes after you leave the academic world and join the workforce. College is important in providing the basics for you to build upon, but much of the stuff you learn in college will never be used. Then again, coming to work everyday feels like a big waste of time, too.

Justifications for a higher education. Those that have it, you know what I am talking about.
