many people have asked me where I plan on going to college, what I want to do career wise, and if I even want to go to college. I always give the same answer. “I plan of going to a community college, I want to work in law enforcement, and of course I want to go to college.” What people do not realize when they ask me these questions is that I start to hate the idea of college.

ask me why have I chosen to spend the next four years of my life in college? After my three years of high school I got all my research about what I wanted to do or become.
