Is University necessary?

Lately I've been kind of considering my life choices,because that is kind of what I always do,and I came across this thought.I have been this kind of kid that always wanted to go to Yale or Oxford or Hardvard or so,but never really knew where would go from there.I mean,don't get me wrong,I think it's nice to go to University,persue your dreams,get some quality education and so on,but I don't really know anymore if this is for me.
University and any sort of higher education has become a requirement and not a right in our society and I think that is wrong.If I choose to get a diploma at a top university yet do no want to do anything in that certain domein,what was it all for?I suppose most people would just really enjoy and make the most out of the university experience as a life lesson and all,but I just think I would not like to go through that,I don't know.I love learning random things by my own,and I am terrified at the thought of spending my entire life (which has been a lot of crap so far,thanks for asking) doing one thing and nothing else,and it would probably be a thing that I would not enjoy at some point,and I refuse to live my life waiting for the next holiday or weekend,because that is what I've been doing so far,and it is a terrible concept.I really want to find something I would look forward to and I really don't believe that going to university would make me feel happy with my life choices.
I think that the thing I would enjoy would be something connected to either the film world or writing.So being an actress/director or a writer would make me as happy as it gets,but it's quite hard to make it in the arts,and also people underrate that,at least where I come from.
So I really do not believe that spending about $12,000 a year would make me happy.I don't really think I could live under the pressure that after waiting over 18 years of my life to leave and make a reality of my own,I would still have to spend four more years in order to consolidate what I want to do in life.While this could just buy some more time to figure it all out,I don't think it's necessarily worth it.
I just think that if people truly want to become something that does not require going to university,you shouldn't worry about it more than they do,because at the end of the day,they may turn out to be really happy surfing in Australia and getting money out of it,or painting in Paris (for example) thank you are,after wasting 4 years of your life and ending up always looking forward to the weekend while working on your 9 to 5.
I don't even know.

The sequel of my dreams? // MONSTROUS DESIGN blog tour

  I was lucky enough to be part of the blog tour for the first book in the series , Dangerous Remedy , last year and it's fair to say these characters have been, as is their way, living rentfree in my mind ever since. Not only was the first book such a fantastic read, it ended on a cliffhanger promising many more adventures to come, so I couldn't wait to get my hands on the second installment in this series. Thus, I shall share with you all things Monstrous Design  so that you can join in my excitement! Synopsis:  Following the thrills and spills of Dangerous Remedy, the Battalion of the Dead return in a dazzling new adventure, set amid the opulence and squalour of 18th-century London and Paris. 1794, London: Camille and Al are desperately hunting Olympe's kidnapper. From the glamorous excesses of the Vauxhall Pleasure Gardens to the city's seedy underbelly, they are caught in a dangerous game of lies and deceit. And a terrible new enemy lies in wait with designs more m...

YOU SHOULD SEE ME IN A CROWN // book review

YOU SHOULD SEE ME IN A CROWN BY LEAH JOHNSON ★★★★★ CW: anxiety, panic attacks, mentions of death of a loved one, illness of loved one, homophobia (challenged) & outing    Synopsis:      Liz Lighty has always believed she's too black, too poor, too awkward to shine in her small, rich, prom-obsessed midwestern town. But it's okay -- Liz has a plan that will get her out of Campbell, Indiana, forever: attend the uber-elite Pennington College, play in their world-famous orchestra, and become a doctor.       But when the financial aid she was counting on unexpectedly falls through, Liz's plans come crashing down . . . until she's reminded of her school's scholarship for prom king and queen. There's nothing Liz wants to do less than endure a gauntlet of social media trolls, catty competitors, and humiliating public events, but despite her devastating fear of the spotlight she's willing to do whatever it takes to get to Pennington.   ...

Gods, monsters and ugly sea fish - Frances Hardinge's DEEPLIGHT

Rating:  ★★★.75 / 5 Plot: For centuries the gods of the Undersea ruled the islands of the Myriad through awe and terror: they were very real, and very dangerous. Sacrifices were hurled into the waters to appease them, and every boat was painted with pleading eyes to entreat their mercy. They were served, feared and adored. Then, thirty years ago, the gods rose up in madness and tore each other apart. Now, none remain. The islands have recovered and the people have patched their battered ships and moved on. On one of these islands live Hark and his best friend Jelt. To them, the gods are nothing but a collection of valuable scraps to be scavenged from the ocean and sold. But now something is pulsing beneath the waves, calling to someone brave enough to retrieve it. Review: The more I think about this book, the more in awe I am even though it's been a while since I've finished it. I had heard people singing Hardinge's praise for age...
