Lol k, lots of bad experiences there. Have you ever considered studying something more "mainstream" like economics, law, sociology or something natural scientific? Also, as I am unfamiliar with American educational terms, what exactly is a "community college"?

Side note: Have you ever considered to raise a loan in order to pay for your studies?

I don't want to get a student loan, everyone I know who has one is fucked after college. Just working to slowly repay back the loans. Would especially suck if you didn't like the degree you ended up with. Plus like the financial aid, student loans have requirements like taking a full load of classes etc.


A community college is like a junior college I guess. Not really sure, but its ghetto and cheap. Anyone who graduated from HS can enroll as well.

Google it. Not really sure if I am defining it properly.
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

I don't know if you are a "college person" but it sounds to me that you may have been a little more successful if you had more guidance.

Anyway, you ended your blog saying you don't really know what you want to do with your job/future. You don't have any ideas at all, or just ones that aren't realistic?
Do you really want chat rooms?

you need to go to college man. opens up alot of opportunities for you to find what you like. quit poker if you are playing for money, you dont need that kind of action right now. if you do not go to college, then try to improve your people skills. i wish you the best of luck.

College is an investment that allows you to make more money once you get a degree.
Your definition should read:
College=Makes money in the future
Poker=Makes money now

Of course, but why would i waste money and time I don't have in order to make money later. When I can skip all that and make it now. Most poker players find out about poker while in college and end up dropping out anyways. And yes Rek, I'm doing well so far.

fuck you bump

edit- About poker update - I had made a decent starting amount playing 5$ Double or nothing SNGs but lost most of it all to cash games. Someone was nice enough to give me 50$ for free to restart and like an idiot I lost most of it to cash (I swear I only isolate vs the fish donkeys but they fucking bad beat my roll every time, bad bankroll management I guess). I still have like 12$ bucks in my account and started playing the 5$ DoN SNG's to which I win/lose every session and just end up losing money to the rake. Lol wtf, too stressed out to play poker anyways. I need to come home and play games and listen to music or else I will explode.
