The Side Effects of Endorphins

I was living in the outskirts of Williamsburg, Virginia, with a pretty high profile job for 25-year-old. My performance reviews weren’t great but work to live and not the other way around.

I was working for a major tool company and they offered me a promotion up to their home office. I think it was then and there I decided I didn’t want to climb the corporate ladder.

Choose Another Ladder

Which led me to another quiz decision. On a whim, I turned down the job and decided to go back to grad school. I didn’t have a lot of money, and not a thought out plan.

I think deep underneath that I was sick of moving and loved the people I knew there.

That decision to go back to grad school, was not as wise as it seems, as we all like a Cinderella story. I proved to myself I was the equal to many a smart person. I could think for myself and hold my own.

From that decision and those that came before, I eventually learned I rather do not like our capitalist system, All education is good as we learn, we get more efficient at learning.

William And Mary was a fun place to go to college. It was starkly different than my undergrad experience at Penn State. It was well worth doing.
