the blood did drip and I did taste

I'm so happy that i'm going to college. Besides the fact that I live in the coolest dorm on campus and having a shitload of fun, it's actually worth it. The amount of education that I have gained, just within the last couple weeks, has made me a better person. When I started my job some two odd years ago (i work at a grocery store called Publix, for those of you who don't know), I actually liked it. I had some "fun" at my job, although some may have some different perspectives. The money was always my incentive, it pushed me to work as much as I could. The whole time I have always known that money can't buy happiness, and I was always somewhat content with my job. I never really HAD to work, no bills or stuff like that. Everything I earned was just "spending money." My work-ethic was always appreciated at my store in Hobe Sound, I was a part of the team, and I knew it. I transfer to this new store in WPB and I feel like a number. Anyway, I'm doing the same exact shit at this new store and it's starting to suck. I'm not 16 anymore, the money is no longer my incentive , I have more college experience than many of co-workers,from what I can see(i'm not calling them dumb, i'm just inferring from the fact that their vocab isn't that advanced and many of them have been there for years.)
My education will lead me to do something I won't call "work". After the happiness, the money will follow.

And just out of curiosity, if you attend college, how big are your classes??
