What You'll Wish You'd Known

Thanks to Pugs Of War for this one... it's great stuff. Should be required reading.

What You'll Wish You'd Known

A quote I'm especially fond of:
A day job is one you take to pay the bills so you can do what you really want, like play in a band, or invent relativity.

Treating high school as a day job might actually make it easier for some students to get good grades. If you treat your classes as a game, you won't be demoralized if they seem pointless.
However bad your classes [may be], you need to get good grades in them to get into a decent college. And that is worth doing, because universities are where a lot of the clumps of smart people are these days.
