And good for your friend. Too bad not everyone can do what he did, though. There are plenty of people I know who are smart as hell, but they don't give a shit about school. So what is gonna happen to them?

With any luck they'll wind up like me. Well, maybe not like me, I'm nothing special, but they can do what I did. Like I said, I did shitty in high school. I didn't give a shit. I was stoned almost every day. I did acid and shroomed in school too. I barely graduated. After a few years of shitty jobs and screwing around though I went back to a junior college and then on to a regular university where I finally got my bachelor's degree. It took a while because I was working full time while going to school but the point is that it can be done. And, I actually value those few years after high school when I screwed around. I did a lot of travelling, rockclimbing, backpacking, etc. I followed the Grateful Dead around for a while and had a generally good time. It really opened my mind but I just started to realize that there was something more and needed a change.

Oh, sorry to everyone if I sounded like an ass in my last post. That wasn't my intention. I've just come to that point in my life where I finally realize that it doesn't get any better. When I was in high school I always thought "life will be great when I get out" but it wasn't. When I was in college I always thought "life will be great when I graduate and get a good job" but it wasn't. When my wife and I were saving to buy our home I thought "life will be great when we have our own house" but it...well you get the picture. Things change and old stresses go away, but new ones come up just as quickly. Nothing comes for free.

So, my advice is live each day to it's fullest. Enjoy what you have and what you are doing today. Whatever period in your life you may be in, because if you don't enjoy today while its here you'll never get another chance.
