Do things get better after high school?
It all depends what you make of it and how you view life. Some people go off to college or university thinking they are going to get great paying jobs but the opposite happens. I worked in a telemarketing call center to pay some bills off and I was surprised by the amount of people who worked there that had university degrees. Some people decide to add life experiences to their resume. After high school I moved across the country and worked in a resort town. I had a working-holiday for 3 years before deciding to move back home and go to university part time. It was the best 3 years of my life and I learned so much about myself and what I want out of life. So yes, things did get better for me after high school.
