    I believe that when the body is strong, the mind thinks strong thoughts. Time spent away from the Iron makes my mind degenerate. I wallow in a thick depression. My body shuts down my mind.

    **** that. Asking to take a piss, raising your hand to speak your mind, being told what to wear. That place was a prison.

    Private school? In most of my classes as a junior and senior I was able to get up and leave class to go to the bathroom, get something to drink, we didn't raise our hands. Most classes were open discussion after lecture was finished. Prison for you, but it wasn't all that bad for me.

    Not for me. My school was one big drama fest and I was glad to get out of that **** and move away from my parents.

    And no, my life does not revolve around the tv.

    Nope, public school. Most teachers refused to give bathroom passes (you got 3 a semester in your planner to use, after that you had to ****ing beg the teacher), I just got up and went anyways.

    Not trying to be pessimistic, but I would look into majoring in something that has some job marketability if either you decide you dont want to make the med school commitment or it doesnt work out.

    Finance,engineering, etc.

    I loved high school. I miss it all the time. Very little responsibility and my senior year I could get away with ANYTHING and most of the teachers would look the other way. I skipped class atleast twice a week the last semester of my senior year. Passed with flying colors. Great memories and times.

    Past high school is a little better in some aspects. I can do more, but I have more financial responsibility now.

    Biochem and chemistry both have PLENTY of job oppurtunities besides med school. Not sure what's out there for bio alone but I'm sure there is plenty.

    High school sucked. No freedom. College was a never-ending party. If you're smart enough, you'll still do well, too. Some people love college so much, they never leave (I believe they are called "academics" ).
