Are you smart enough to quit school yet?

I laughed when she said it. Just a light little Travis chuckle, with one of those "that was clever" type of smiles. I thought that it would be a passing memory, never making into my long-term memory storage system.

I was wrong.

Its two days later, and I am still thinking about that sentence. Why the hell am I in shcool and what does it teach me? Gnostic is close to supporting me, why not go all the way with it?

Well, first off, it gives me the option to go to more school later on. This could be graduate school, business school, law school, or a combination thereof. This also requires a decent GPA, so I would have to work hard to get good grades if I wanted to keep this as an option. If I drop out of school, I burn this bridge.

I can see myself giving a talk, much like the lecture I attended last night in front of a bunch of other business people. When they introduce me, I want them to list my credintials, and I don't want to hear that all I did was start Gnostic. I want to hear that I also have a degree in Computer Science. That is a nice thing to throw around when talking to people.

With the Bacara starting up, its like my time is now becoming extremely limited. Gnostic is starting to heat up again as well, and I feel like cutting a couple things so I can support more of them easier.

But why do that?

I have come to the conclusion that I am fucking great. I want to accomplish all of these things, not just some of them. I don't want to have to drop some things because I don't think I have enough time. I have plenty of time, I just need to crank up the productivity, bring on the coffee and deal with the pressure.

I am not going to dodge things by giving up. I am going to take it head on.

Fuckin' A.
