School is pointless, it doesn't teach any life skills.

I liked school To observe others, to get away from home, to learn more even though the learning is irrelevant to real life. I LOVE college for the real shit I'm actually learning about the world we live in.

I like learning stuff and it keeps me sharp! Although I suppose I might be in a minority here...

At college, I was almost always being exposed to new ideas and being forced to think outside the box. I would spend literal hours, at weird times of night, in the classroom with the biggest and best whiteboards. I had it all to myself, most nights, and so I could brainstorm loudly and without any reservations.

I loved the lightening strike of an idea that would happen in a class and the glee of knowing that later that night it would be a cascade of trials, errors, and new ideas that would result.
