““Your life is not an episode of Skins. Things will never look quite as good as they do in a faded, sun-drenched Polaroid; your days are not an editorial from Lula. Your life is not a Sofia Coppola movie, or a Chuck Palahniuk novel, or a Charles Bukowski poem. Grace Coddington isn’t your creative director. Bon Iver and Joy Division don’t play softly in the background at appropriate moments. Your hysterical teenage diary isn’t a work of art. Your room probably isn’t Selby material. Your life isn’t a Tumblr screencap. Every word that comes out of your mouth will not be beautiful and poignant, infinitely quotable. Your pain will not be pretty. Crying till you vomit is always shit. You cannot romanticize hurt. Or sadness. Or loneliness. You will have homework, and hangovers and bad hair days. The train being late won’t lead to any fateful encounters, it will make you late. Sometimes your work will suck. Sometimes you will suck. Far too often, everything will suck - and not in a Wes Anderson kind of way. And there is no divine consolation - only the knowledge that we will hopefully experience the full spectrum - and that sometimes, just sometimes, life will feel like a Coppola film.””

Can we fucking dispel the notion that you have to go to university to excel in life. I mean, it’s a cute idea and we should encourage kids to always learn and always want to learn and always live a life of learning ! ! ! But not having a college degree does NOT make you worthless.
Also, why is education directly correlated to sitting in a room with fluorescent light bulbs and twenty-six other children coincidentally born and raised in the same year and town as you.
THERE ARE OTHER MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO LEARN AND OTHER MORE IMPORTANT PLACES TO LEARN THEM and maybe we shouldn’t stick kids in classrooms and tell them that *~this is a place of learning~* because EVERYWHERE can be a place of learning.

This is pretty rad-ish, but lettuce not get too excited, the umbrella will allow your head to romaine dry but it’s not very tasty. I know the puns are corny but I really don’t carrot all.

Reblogged for puns. Peas stop.

I don’t want to go to college, I don’t want to go to college, I don’t want to go to college, I don’t want to go to college, I want to go backpacking in the fucking Alps and then visit fucking Derweze and go see fucking glaciers in Iceland and go to a wine festival in Medellin and jump out of airplanes and swim the coral reef and see the Galapagos and pray in St. Basil’s cathedral and not go to college.
