I was a fucking asshole in college. I entered as a history and lit major in my freshman year and earned a 3.8 during my first year. During my second year, I changed majors to chemistry and swiftly dropped down to an even 3 because the classes were hard as hell. After that I decided "fuck this" and went back into history and lit to bring my GPA back up. This would have been fine but I ended up taking some classes with some really horrible teachers and I failed three courses in one semester (mostly due to attendance, which I never held in high regard). After that I was down to a 2.6 or something and on academic probation. After that I went down to part-time and brought myself back up to a 3.1 or something.
I don't regret a thing because I quickly found out that my degree didn't really fucking matter when I started looking for work. You don't need a degree to fix copying machines or bullshit with assholes on the phone. Plus, all my half-assed school behaviors gave me all kinds of time to become a better musician. I also made the good decision of going to a state school and saving a lot of money that most of my peers are still paying off 5-6 years later.
