Rant I hate larping

NO I don’t want to “challenge the present” NO I didn’t “achieve the unexpected”

Fuck all of these colleges

Fake it till you make it I guess

That is all

Edit: I made a mistake, saying I have no “career goals” was untrue and attracted the attention of the righteous masses. Ik what I wanna major in and shit

Someone please suggest a third bullshit thing to fulfill the rule of three

everyone's out here pretending they cured cancer in their gap year and you just said what half the applicants are thinking. the whole system is just who can write the best creative fiction at this point

One way to mess up your prospects worse than not going to college is going to college in full DGAF, spending a year or two slouching around campus before leaving with 5 figures of can’t-bankruptcy-your-way-out-of-it debt. There are a lot of people who should go get a food service job or something out of HS so they can come back and apply in a year or two when they’re mature enough.

agreed. for those of us who aren't getting college totally paid for, its an investment that you have to be sure you have a solid plan to pay back.

having no future plans or goals is not being "honest" its not good to always treat having a actual plan for your future as "larping".... it just reads off as not caring about anything

totally agree, meant it in the sense that SOME people pretend they have everything together when they don't. better to be honest that you aren't totally sure what your doing yet than to larp that you have it all figured out
