“No one will care about the GED. You did the right thing dropping out of that bullshit. You’ll get into college next year.”
Incidentally, nothing on that GED was anything I hadn’t learned by middle school. I got an ‘honors’ GED because it was so fucking easy. I’m not trying to brag. I don’t think I’m some kind of genius. It was just really easy. And then I spent the next decade, even though I did get into college, thinking people would think I was a fraud because I took the easy way out.
It all changed when I got invited to my 10 year high school reunion and realized even they didn’t care.

I would still be a housekeeper if I hadn’t taken the GED. It was easy because it takes real ife experience in to account.
