I tried to make it a little different than others out there. I was never in to parties, drinking, drugs, and all that. I just find it to be a waste of time and money. There's so much more that can be done and so many other ways to obtain joy. I agree with you friend, that statement couldn't be more true. -Andrew Hey Tim,

I agree with you friend, that statement couldn’t be more true.

I like the post….

The school of hard knocks has nothing to do with an academic education. It's about life and it's experiences. The author is just using drugs as an example of what you might not want to waste your time finding out. People who've had drugs 101 (celeberties, musicians, commoners etc.) are our teachers through music and word of their experiences.So you don't have to take that class. He mentions nothing about not enjoying life and parties. The school of hard knocks is about finding things out the hard way but learning from the choices and mistake we make. Life is hard, enjoy the good stuff. I think many of you misunderstand the gist of the article. The school of hard knocks has nothing to do with an academic education.
