Being the age i am Ive realised a few things, no one prepares you for anything! I'm not saying its everyones concern to tell you everything, but a few facts would of been nice. I got hefty confused with this whole saas business, so i go to the front desk and the 'lovely' women just had a blank expression on her face an promptly handed me a leaflet, forgetting the fact i don't need this leaflet i know what I'm doing i only asked what this eight digit number was saas so desires? .....she didn't know, i didn't know, an i still don't know, im assuming she doesn't know still ether.
Going back a few....few years no one told me the process of getting to college and beyond. They ask you what you wanna do, and i rattled off something about design thinking that's good enough to get them to GO AWAY! if someone had sat me down, shook me an explained that, first if u want to do design you go do appropriate the coarse, theeen you got to have this paper work to get funding, then if you so desire this is the next part of it. People are dropping out of college left right and centre, giving up on something because it feels like whats the point? No one shows us the future, or how to get there or what to do when we are there. No one sits us down an says CUT THE CRAP THIS IS SERIOUS! unless you wanna be on the dole obviously. I had no clue what was on offer after my art coarse. What was i supposed to do? randomly go on another course? I don't know, i was confused. So i went on a completely different course, another nq. At the end of that people said they were applying for uni already! if i wanted to pursue what i wanted at the time would i have to all of a sudden up sticks and move? get loads of money together? should i apply ed as well? I when i was supposed to be moving on to the next step i stopped and just took up a full time job. Give it a year an a bit an i know i cant work 9-5 doing something i honestly hate doing. So back i go, an really its gotten a bit better im more in the know about stuff, but seriously i needed to know this stuff years back. They should take out a class or add one in high school an just EXPLAIN stuff! in dumb people terms, i didn't have a single clue, i only have started getting it. Or maybe im just dumb?

not dumb Lauren - this is a gloriously scatalogical rap about the uncertainty of further education and its role in your future. there are more questions than answers. If you could find all of those you would never have to work 9-5!
