Education

Why is it important? This has been something that I have been thinking about a lot lately. I need to  figure out what I'm going to do to prepare for college! It's only about 2 years away. That's so close... Crazy, right?

College is expensive but totally worth it in the long run. It can save you so much heart ache and worry. Getting a good job will be less difficult and you will be able to use your resources to your advantage!

One video that really got me thinking about college is the one on youtube called "Why I hate school but love education."


here it is...









“Education is about inspiring ones mind not just filling their head”.  This quote is one of my favorites in the entire video. 

Why do I want to go to college?
-Make my parents proud
-increases chances of getting a job
-My life will be a lot less stressful
-opportunity to be successful
-FOR ME
-FOR MY FUTURE FAMILY
-FOR MY DAD

I have been brought up my entire life being told how important college is. It's something that will change my life forever... I can't live my life, not having a good education.

Education and school are two different things. I think school is meant to teach us the basics. The facts. The ideas. Once you have gone to school, you will gain an education. I believe that an education is being about to understand what you learned as well as forming your own opinion on things. You can have your own thoughts, you aren't a robot. You can learn and speak for yourself.

We need school in order to help us gain an education! Work hard in school every day, it will pay off. 

Peace out :)
