Since I'm sure there aren't many of you readers out there, I can just post my current thoughts, even though I'll probably regret them soon enough and I'll wish I didn't say them. But I'm just going to say it, even though I'm sure this isn't a popular consensus, and I always hear otherwise, but I COMPLETELY REGRET GETTING A DEGREE FROM BYU! There you go. Kids, my kid, you heard it here first. Education can be a complete waste of time and effort.
Ok, to be fair, just finishing it to finish it is a big, fat, waste. I'm sure an education is useful if you actually learn stuff and take it seriously, and apply yourself. I definitely won't get a chance to apply what I "learned" because a disabled, pregnant, psychology major is not in very high demand in Provo, Utah. Apparently, I can't even use my college education to help me be the most incredible Gap sales associate. Or even help me be a mediocre sales associate. I can't even be the worst sales associate Gap has ever had.
Can you tell I'm a little bitter at BYU right now? I really don't know one good thing thats come from it. Yeah, I don't want you to tell me why it was a good thing. I don't want to hear about the "therapy" it was for my TBI recovery. I could have gotten the same recovery by going to a trade school or something that could have actually helped me get a job. I don't want to hear about the bad economy. I don't want to hear about how it will be good to have in my future. It better be good for my future because its worthless now. I guess the only way you can say that "Getting an education was a good idea" is if its followed by "I would like to hire you."
