How College is Viewed

            Most of my friends after high school didn't decide to go to college. I understand that most saw that going into working would be more ideal as far as now. I don't understand why no one sees that going to college and working at the same time benefits the present and the future. The jobs you can get after receiving a college education are well worth it in my opinion and to have a stable career for the rest of your life now days, a college degree is almost required. The government has made it easier than ever to pursue a college education and there is absolutely no reason to not at least try to see if college is for you. There are numerous resources that can be used if you have trouble and there are a million advisers out there that will specifically help someone on the path to get their degree if they only put forth the time to ask questions and use them. I think anyone who doesn't go to college is showing their laziness and immature nature to not want to grow up. I was forced almost into a college education because I have to have the degree to better my independent life I was given, and I can not rely on a normal job for the rest of my life. Having high dreams is what it's about and I don't think that people have enough self confidence nowadays to pursue their dreams at any cost. I will not give up and I know that all the stress that college brings to the table, will be well worth it when I start my career and see the potential amount of money I am able to make in the job field. I also think I couldn't have had this viewpoint if it wasn't for the determination and integrity that I was given by God.
