but i quit school for about 2 years in between 20 and 24. which is really when i learned the most. ...outside of school.
but even when i wasnt in school (and when i was either off meds or not on so much meds) i committed myself to just learning about all kinds of things.
idk...
you know...i used to hate school a lot. like in high school. lol and not just because of the people...but also because i ALWAYS got either Cs or completely failing grades. so i figured i wasnt good at school and just wasnt cut out for it. then again high school is completely uninteresting. i mean completely. its not just about that your not learning what you find interesting...its also because your learning the basics and base core education for things that are far more interesting in detail. on your own and in college you quit learning the base core and get into the details of things. i suppose the basics are important. but you know everything im interested in and everything ive ever learned about with the exception of math i actually learned from my dad. and even in my younger years he taught me details of certain things.
i think i can probably say that all my interests came from my dad. everything from art and music to philosophy and government and history. my dad is just this extremely intellectual and extremely smart man.
oh god im raving sorry
