What are you most sensitive about?
A lot of things! People talking down to me like I'm an idiot, people disrespecting me for no reason.....But what really seems to burn me up is people who put my school down. Yes, I went to Prince George's Community College. Excuse me if I didn't leave high school knowing all that I wanted from life. Excuse me if I wanted to start off some where inexpensive enough for me to sit down and figure it all out.
Excuse me, if I put myself through school, with my hard earned money. I don't have a rich mommy and daddy who offer to play Dr. and Mrs. Huxtable; who on one episode said to Theo that it was their HONOR to put him through school - NYU at that!
My mamma doesn't work for the school, so no free tuition benefits there. I tried to work for two schools but neither of them hired me. So what am I supposed to do? I'm not taking out a loan, because I already owe Visa several ducketts as it is. A college education is a great investment, but if I have to file for bankruptcy, then it's just not worth it!
I would love to apply for some grants or scholarships, but FAFSA claims I make too much money, and my grades are no where near up to par for me to earn anything academic related! Excuse me for being a working adult who is slowly but surely learning how to effectively balance work, school and fun. So these stuck up people who have a problem with 'community college' can do their thing, and keep their condescending opinions to themselves.
I mean, a lot of four year colleges send their students back to PG to get a solid foundation in those core classes. A lot of four year college advisors recommend that students start off at PG. A lot of my PG professors have written books, and, like a couple of my Psych professors, they're real doctors. Also, many of my professors teach at four year colleges as well....so what's the problem? My teacher could have very well been your teacher during the same semester, so guess what? We were learning the SAME STUFF you idiot!
I think I'm done venting. I wish I could copy this to all the ignorant jackasses who always have something negative to say....knocking something they've never even tried!
