I don't know if this will be in the right forum thing. Oh well.

So latley I've been really confused. I want to go to this college that is by my favroite place in the us of a. But it's most likely going to be way to expensive. And also I kind of fucked up the first year and a half of highschool. I've improved since but still not sure if I'll be able to make it in. I really love art and music. Have made a few songs IMO they are decent and I think I'd actually have a shot at being a professional musician. Although for my major Im going into art education to be an art teacher.

Then the other day I heard something about living life to it's fullest. Exploring the world. Having a good time and all. But in my view there is no way to do that unless some how you make it big doing what you love and become rich. I just don't understand how so many people say to live like that. I think that it's terrible that money is the root of all evil.

I'm kind of losing my train of thought. So I think I'll come back and finish the rest soon. But I think you can get the just of it.

I guess what I'm trying to say is why don't people all live like that way. Everyone is a hypocrite and I just wish there was no such thing as money. Why can't people see that it's a terrible thing. Why do people have to be so power hungry and have to be better than other people. Why can't you just live the life you want while doing the things you love.

I'm a pretty up beat guy and very peaceful and happy most of the time but I'm starting to think more along the lines of just 'Fuck Life'

You don't have to become rich in order to live life to the fullest and explore the world. All you have to do is set your priorities. If you saddle yourself with a family to support and a big mortgage, yeah, you'd have to be rich to do a lot else. OTOH, if you live simply and don't acquire a lot of other obligations, you will have the time and money to do quite a lot.

Teaching is a great profession for people who want to travel because of the long summer vacations. Beyond that, my daughter is a language teacher. She's currently starting her second year teaching English in Japan. If you get into a profession that's in demand all over the world, you can work anywhere and really learn other cultures by living in the midst of them.

Except that it's not. It's probably the most mis-quoted of all Bible quotes.

I think teaching is great. Expecially with art because it's so important to me. It's just so hard in our world, all I want to do is have my job and live here I love.

I understand what you mean man! That's why i wish to become a traveling photographer for a news paper or some other job that would send me around the world. Because my goal is to see as much as i can before i die.

If it's any comfort...a LOT of universities ignore the freshman year if the rest of the years are better and you show improvement over the years.

hey i see where you're coming form man. i'm going into languages just so it increases my chances of travelling. and if you don't fall into the trap of coveting earthly goods, you'll have the means to go see the world and pick up and go where the action is.
