The unnatainable institution

School is a self professed gateway to the rest of your life. I had always been one with the masses; that someone successful goes to university, and becomes a doctor, or a lawyer, or a brain surgeon. recently, a conbination of curcumstance and good luck showed me a diferent view. school is only the way to kill the first 18 years of your life, and teach you basic social skills. this is not to say i am completely against it. uni still does offer pathways to higher education. TAFE does the same, albiet with less books and more physical work.

i will fail this year. i know it. you know it, and my dad knows it.

three years ago this would have meant i would consider my life over.

now, it appears that there is life beyond failure. next year i want to work, and do coursework at TAFE, on some cert 3 or something that i will choose later. next year is about establishing myself as a human being again. hopefully doing retail at a clothing store of some description, and TAFEing. if this fails, then its full-time work, and ill have to try again next year.

then, it's to TAFE full time, doing interior design, for two years.

then to uni. interior archetecture.

then, my life.
