Teetering on the precipice of irrelevance.
I thought I’d write a blog, to say in my own words why I am pissed off right now without it being sandwiched between some derogatory prose that just turns my life into a joke.

Why my degree isn't worth shit.
Here is my problem with our higher education system.
Just before I started university, Tony Blair introduced a system that abolished grants and introduced student loans.
