Everyone says it, everyone knows it

A conversation with a buddy of mine yesterday went like this, I said to him," I can't wait to go to school tomorrow!" I was excited. He said, "School? Why are you  excited about school? ew!. "Well I love school, I really do."I said. He responds, "God I can think of so many other things I would rather be doing than going to school". I thought to myself, I guess not everyone understands how much of a privilege it is to attend college.My whole life I have always loved going to school, anyone of my family members can truly say that even when I was younger I would rather be at school than at home.This is how I see school, or actually I see college more specifically, it's no longer a right to go to school that right ended at 16, from then on it's a personal choice and decision whether or not to attend school. I said this to him, "I love school which is why I go to college", and I also thought to myself , it doesn't even matter what my major is because I'm interested in knowledge and learning that is the true reason I attend knowledge I seek to know more, I seek to learn more and more everyday and as long as I learned something new it was a day well spent in my life. Everyone that I know that says they hate school aren't exactly the most successful. The feeling that someone gets when they go to the gym, exercise and eat well and they start seeing results that is the feeling I get when I go to school, I see results and then I feel good about myself, I have knowledge that no one can take away from me. But it's very much like exercise and staying fit and healthy, knowledge is something that you must open yourself up to every single day. I love the feeling of understanding a new concept, new discipline, new strategy, new terminology, new words it is such a satisfying feeling.
