What’s the most important thing you learned in college?

Honestly, I didn’t care enough about my classes and didn’t have a clear goal as to why I was there-so I wasn’t motivated enough to get good grades or work hard on anything. Also didn’t help that the campus was a commuter type setting, most of the kids there just spent time in the library, very few parties although every weekend the frats would invite me since I knew everyone.

I spent my first year dating a model on campus and selling drugs, had no motivation whatsoever and created a reputation for myself but grade-wise I did horribly. Finished with a 1.9 and couldn’t finish my first semester of sophomore year because I just felt out of place over there. It was too dull (also gave up selling drugs and the model).

So that was all back in December. After I decided to travel and explore the world which I did, been to Madagascar-Cali, made connects in LA, Tahoe City, Seychelles, Amsterdam... I just don’t know what I would be doing if I went back to university. Or where to go.

Luckily though, my parents would pay for the entire costs if I’m serious. But I’d have to start at community college first and then transfer. Still...don’t know what to study..
