Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Richard Rushfield takes us on an unforgettable and hilarious trip through higher alternative education in the eighties. Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost is a strange and salacious memoir about life at the ultimate New England hippie college at the height of Reaganomics. Opening its doors in 1970, Hampshire College was an experiment in progressive education that went hilariously awry. Self- proclaimed nerd Richard Rushfield enrolled with the freshman class of 1986, hoping to shed his wholesome California upbringing in this liberal hideout, where overachievement and preppy clothes were banned. By turns hilarious, ironic, and steeped in history, Don't Follow Me, I'm Lost takes readers to a campus populated by Deadheads, club kids, poets, and insomniac filmmakers, at a time when America saw the rise of punk and grunge alongside neoconservatism, earnest calls for political correctness, and Take Back the Night vigils. Imagine Lord of the Flies set on a college campus and you have Richard Rushfield's alma mater experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Your first job isn't all it's cracked up to be . . . You just spent $100,000 on a college degree to make photocopies. And your manager probably isn't even happy with them. Life at the entry level isn't about what school you graduated from, or even who you know. It's actually about paying dues and brownnosing and keeping your foot out of your mouth during meetings. You're Too Smart For This explains everything your college professors didn't: Understand how college has no application to reality, or anybody living in it. Come to terms with doing gruntwork and smiling while being yelled at. Get straight with operating on a team - putting personal interests second, for once. Negotiate office politics, and recognize when to keep quiet (e.g., "the daytime"). Earn the right promotion or transfer, instead of quitting and being poor again. Locate a balanced work life, not based on social sacrifice and being hostile. You're Too Smart For This will help you get the hang of the working life soon enough. And even have some fun with it. Especially at happy hour.

Download or read book Reality in Poetry written by John P. Hunter III and published by John P. Hunter III. This book was released on 2014-07-26 with total page 345 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry is a writing that formulates a concentrated imaginative awareness of experience in language chosen and arranged to create a specific emotional response through meaning, sound, and rhythm. It is fiction or of non – fiction depending on what the writer is contemplating about. Poetry can make you glad, sad or even mad while reading its contents. A story written for enjoyment or to edify the reader in minutes, hours or perhaps a reference for one to look back on; time after time again, to rejuvenate oneself back into reality, as this book was written to do for the world; to be more self conscience about what is going on around them. Poetry can also be brought about in small phrases or of antidotes. This is seen in the follow – up book entitled “ LAUGH WITH A PHRASE OR TRUTH ”. It is unfortunate that most people are too busy in life to relax and enjoy that which is bestowed on all of us. Poetry can be used as a reminder of what to do or of what not to do depending on your outlook of life and of what you read. Reality for most people is in fact the way of living that is best suited for them. This may include environment, clothing, food, social life, culture and of course religion; a way to obtain good morals, supposedly, by your particular way that you were raised up or of how you think life should be in your own perspective. Right or wrong an anonym in life. Unfortunately, we have to see bad in life along with the good, this is inevitable. We try to avoid the bad but sometimes the bad coexist with the good to create or to demolish a fact. BEING OPEN - MINDED IS THE KEY OF REALITY
