What is this thread all about?
Just a place for general discussion. A place to unload whats on your mind and talk about anything - personal, health, help needed, achievements, daily highs and daily lows, theories, predictions and what have you.
Does not need to be Q related.
Would not have skipped grades, would have tried to be home schooled, would have waited on college and picked a totally different one, just... everything. I've learned way more outside of school than inside.
I was kicked out of school in 10th grade, then I was kicked out of continuation school as well. I ended up getting my GED, and got on with my life.
You see my parents weren’t around when I was young. They divorced, and I saw my dad once every two weeks on the weekend, and my mom worked and went to school. I was basically unsupervised. I figured if my own parents aren’t telling me what to do, why would I listen to anybody at school? Didn’t make sense to me.
Turns out you can pass the GED with the 10th grade education. Lol don’t need the school system, don’t want the school system. There’s not enough money in the world to pay me to go back to school.
The highlight of my high school years were dropping acid, and then walking out of class when I started peaking. My best friend would meet me in the hallway at the exact same time from the class she was in. Lol. The only thing that I really liked about high school West photography class, but that meant I would have to stay at school past lunch to make it to that class.
Oh the 80s, at Huntington Beach high school, California!
Don't know, I read a lot, I am basically self educated, dropped out of school in my Junior year, got trained as a nurses aide, and found my calling. Through all those years, I took courses, read voraciously, went to trainings, became successful enough to acquire a license as a developmental home provider, and basically live at work, caring for persons in my home with severe disabilities. Which allows me to homestead. Most people think I have much more academic experience than I have. I can discuss Kierkegaard, art history, and understand Constitutional law, how to make a poultice that will heal the nastiest skin wound, balance a persons diet to help their gut get back to normal. I am respected for what I do, and my other interests are painting, which I took courses for. When there is something I need to know, I pay for a course through Community College. If I had to start school all over again I would choose some other form of incarceration and become a lay minister in jail, lol. No. I do not want to go back, I guess I'm too feral.
Wouldn’t have used rubbers lol
I wouldn’t have trained as a medical assistant.
Sorry to hear. would you have gone higher up or just not done medicine?
I always wanted to be a lab technologist. More involved than a technician. The program was dropped at the university in my first year at community college, where I was getting my base credits. In the meantime, I find out the extent of animal testing. I am an animal lover. All of them are safe with me. I decided ten years later to train as an M.A. at a private college. I did that. I had a felony following me around from when I was eighteen. Background checks became law for health professionals at that time. Even though the felony is 30 plus years old now it still held me back. The Trump admin changed all of that. Thank God!!! By this time I was waking up. I realized just what a sham pharma is. Throughout Covid I found out how many doctors are phonies. The education I got was what convinced me that the shot was a no go so it wasn’t all for nothing.
Ask questions and challenge what I was being given in history class.
Skipped school more.
I would have taken my Senator's offer up to come work for them when they were struggling with votes. That experience now seems invaluable.
That said, I never would have met my wife & she is by far the best blessing God has put into my life outside of our Savior's grace.
There’s not enough money in the world to make me go back to school again. Fuck that!
