I did some community college, took all the "required" classes although every fiber of my being was angry & restless about it, intuitively knowing it was a waste of precious time, energy, money, resources,

even doing what was "required," I felt like I was fucking around when I should've been out in the real world living my life because I've got SO MUCH LIFE IN ME and college sucks out the life force.

But I still needed money to survive because you can't survive without money, so I spent a couple years in two vocational schools and now I am working in those fields.

Vocational schools are a fast track to employment. Employment needed to pay off the educational loans 🤦🏼‍♀️
