I'm on the same page as you! I am 26 years old and in 2 short weeks, I will become a college student yet again. And once again, will be paying for it on my own.

I was denied state grant money this term and had to take an extra loan. And I didn't complain. I was telling my father what happened and I said "It doesn't matter. At least I'm going." He said "Exactly."

People appreciate what they have more when they work for it and earn it.

Not everyone is meant to go to college. The world needs people to do trades. Social equality does not work!!!!!!!!!! Someone needs to bag the groceries just as much as someone needs to build the bridges and mop the floors.

That doesn't mean that you don't deserve respect for what you do, but not everyone can go to college and not everyone should. And people certainly shouldn't have it handed to them! If you want it bad enough, you'll find a way.

And I want it bad enough.
