Been awhile

Hey everyone. Sorry I haven't been on in quite awhile. I've missed the forums. I've just been really busy plunging head first into my freshman year. I've been pondering ALOT lately. May elaborate in future posts. Good to be back, none the less

Hated high school by the end of it and most of the people in it. Still learned some interesting stuff.
College is a class by class basis.
Stay in school.

Debatable.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Added to the fact that if you think you learn more outside of high school, you can still continue your self-education while earning the diploma that the rest of the country looks much more favorably on.
Playing the system IS sometimes advisable.
