spending all of that time has seemed to paid off after all
even if i don't believe it. it wasn't the perseverance that got the best of it...it was more like knowing when to strike and where. i guess that goes with a lot of things even though they teach you in elementary school that patience trumps all. It's true, but it's also inefficient. They don't ever teach you to be "smart." smartness isn't exactly a character trait, at least not one of the desirable ones.

ReplyDeleteyes, precisely, it's opportunism that gets you places if you're smart about it
thing is, most people are retards so it's probably a bad idea to encourage opportunistic traits in *everyone*.
one of my biggest fucking regrets: wasting so much fucking time in school when i could have done so many other things. like talk more to people who might know about shit like CTY or whatever. when school was worthless as shit
ReplyDeleteWhy CTY? i went to cty
ReplyDeletewell, what I meant was talk more to smart people. Or find interesting things to read. Rather than waste time getting 100+%'s in school
