College does not prove anything unless you are trying have a real career.

I'm sorry, but I am a jerk in the fact that I think my major is a bunch of crap. The only thing it does for me is give me better opportunities for stupid jobs like management. My major is Park, Recration, and Tourism, emphasis in sports management. I hate it more than anything in the world. I sit in class and wonder if these classes are going to help me get a better job. It can, but I have no desire to work in the sport industry. Only goobers who can't play sports want to work for sport industry. I sure don't, and that is why I am still debating to change my major to graphic design. If I do I'll be in school four more years, or I can finish my PRT degree in the spring. I also have a minor in arts technology, so that can help me get my foot in the door for graphic design. Overall I think college is overrated and all those people who say you can't make it life without a college degree are annoying. I think you can because if you have a skill at something or just super high confidence, people can move up in anything they want. I think college is only worth it if you are going to be a doctor, lawyer, or some other big time career. I think the college system is messed up. I don't think they prepare us students for the working world. Writing papers and taking tests are a good thing to do, but how will that help someone in a job where they have to lead, work with clients, and selling a product. Yeah I know I am being a jerk, but I had to sit in a four hour class today and that is not fun. When you sit in a class that long, that is when you start to wonder if what you are doing is worth it. I hope finishing college is worth it, because it's not easy to go to school. For me it's been a growing experinece, I had to do many things that I did not want to do. What I learned from doing those things, is that I can do anything I want to, but I just have to believe in myself. That goes for anything in life because if you want to be something you can, you just have to have confidence and faith that you will become what you want to be.
