    Started college at 2020 January. Information technology. I did well during the time I was there but whole covid thing just made me hate my school and like I needed change.

    We were going back and forth remote and in person classes, both of which were really bad in terms of quality of the teaching and I felt like if I am mostly learning from external sources and teaching sucks.

    I refused to attend in person classes due to covid risks despite it being kind of mandated so I managed to negotiate that I just study on my own and take the exams. And my grades didn’t even get worse.

    I’m not the type of person to keep doing something I feel like is useless for a paper that might give me slight advantage for getting a job. Education itself is free in my country but I just hated getting more and more student debt to cover other my living costs.

    I decided "fuck this I’m just gonna get a IT job and teach myself and that’s what I did. I wouldn’t say that I’m at my dream job now but I feel confident I am able to progress on this career just fine despite dropping out.

    What about Tiananmen Square…?!? That was kinda cool for the CCP!

    I wasn’t there but maybe someone here was.

    Oh wait.

    No.

    They were all killed and then turned to mush by tanks repeatedly driving over the bodies and then hosed dune the drains.

    GLORY TO THE CCP AND HOW WONDERFUL THEY ARE TO ALL THE PEOPLE.
