Dodge isn't terrible. Let me rephrase that. Dodge is a disgusting, sorry excuse for a town, but I like my job here. I have been facing a dilemma that I must solve quickly. It is akin to the dilemma I have faced ever since I graduated high school. I must decide what I want to do with my life, and when. I know I need to go back to school. Emporia would be a good choice. It would be possible to stay here in Dodge and go to the community college here, but I sort of hate Dodge City. But I do have a job here that endures through May. I REALLY don't want to quit my job. But I also really want to be continuing my education. I think there should be a test out for college. Someone can study up in a library or something, read a bunch of stuff about a subject, then take a test to get a bachelor's degree. It's a perfect solution, right? Well, at least certain subjects should be able to be tested out of. Like everything except things that have practical aspects, such as musical performance etc. Like a history class? Who the heck wants to sit through a semester of boring lectures straight from a book when you can read it on your own at home? Seriously. College costs a ridiculous amount. Which discourages losers like me from going back to school, by giving me something to gripe about.
