theres allot of things a person can do without a degree...
like anything that requires actual talent....
basically anything artsy fartsy can do.
like producing music, djing, filming, acting, and what not.

if everyone would have finished school, and went in the direction they were pointed towards - then society would be very boring, i agree that we would'nt have as much crime and stuff, but without change - things are boring.

the only reason im still in school is to please my parents (or more likely to get them of my back), im moving to london next year (alone - without my parents) in order to start my life. and that is a major gamble.
but in life - everything is a gamble. even breathing is a gamble (bacteria, pollution & what not...)

so maybe, with some luck, you'll be better off like this.

wish you well.

i just disagree here. obviously you can do things without a degree, it just limits your options severly. if you go through high school and college successfully, you will have options that someone who didn't finish high school doesnt. of course you can choose to produce music or do photography or whatever even with your degree.

as per anything that requires actual talent being derived without a degree, ...no its too obvious.

i hate to rain on the parade but i think the 'interesting elements' of society are more due to those who do have an education. the vast majority of people who do not pursue any education end up working fast food / sanitation. yea there are some lucky ones that make music people like, but that's the rare few. 'without change' implies without some people not finishing school ? please... i think you just don't know the plethora of options you have in terms of what to study at school. my school aint no cookie cutter.

so, don't reduce your options, try to stay in school.

nooo way ! college IS boring... I had SO much fun when I was in highschool. It was the best time of my life....

and most of the time, I don't enjoy my classes...

yall need to get the hell off this forum and go to school and study. it might seem funny now but believe me in 10 years you'll be kicking your self in the ass

i didn't say it was funny.

Dude $15/hour to start is awsome. You probably need some kind of training or something to get a job there though.

Wow ... can't believe this many people think HS and college were boring ... seriously the best and funnest times of my life. Wait until you get out of school and start working full time ... you're in for a real shocker. It's not so much fun when dicking around means you can't pay rent or put food on the table.

This thread just makes me really happy that im graduating in two months...... good luck man
