Basically, what I 8767 m saying is that the urge to make money from an education system is one of the biggest flaws I 8767 m finding since I left Concordia. Honestly, I felt my money spent on concordia was put to far better use then the money I 8767 m spending at St. John 8767 s. I felt that I got my money 8767 s worth in education. For St. John 8767 s on the other hand, I sometimes feel like I 8767 m wasting money. So, be careful.

Unfortunately, society finds freedom highly suspect, dangerous and scary. Don 8767 t follow your heart, it says, follow the established order. Wouldn 8767 t it be nice if nobody showed up to work at a job they hate? What a happier place the world would be.
