Take it from Joan Jett

Day 23, Thursday: Things you've learned that school won't teach you

1. Don't EVER get a credit card. EVER! It's a scam.
2. YouTube can teach you almost any skill you want to learn. Knitting, crochet, sewing... oil changes. Anything.
3. C's get degrees, but degrees don't really get you anything these days.
4. People in this world are crazy. You hear about it on the news but it doesn't always seem real, like the Westboro Baptist Church crazies. Or the KKK. But they really exist. You will one day find yourself face to face with a person who believes women shouldn't be treated equally to men. People who hate Mexicans. You will meet them and it will blow your mind. Don't let it make you lose faith in humanity.
5. Seriously, do the things you dream about. Don't be afraid to jump right into something even if it scares you. I have had the best experiences of my life just by saying, "Fuck it, let's do it."
6. Take it from Joan Jett... Fuck what other people think. Those people are boring.
