Specifically about education at the university level, if there is one. I'm home sick today and I'm out of high school, took some time off to work and ski and was hoping to "find my self" and discover what I want to do as a career, but that never really happened. Anyways I'm going back to school in the fall.

I don't know a few months ago I watched that TED talk with the skier kid talking about hack schooling and though he brought up some interesting points, with being happy and all that. I feel like through high school I was exactly like one of those kids that learned how to get good grades, but never really learned to think, and pretty much setting my self to become another "drone" working a job they don't really care about to make a bunch of money to buy the next big thing that doesn't matter and buy a big house and fancy car and a bunch of shit then die.

But finding something I do really want to do and would be good at is something I'm sort of struggling with.

TL;DR: documentary on education, more specifically university level.
 
So this is technically irrelevant, but "Waiting for Superman" is a great documentary on American education in general - more focused on our failing school systems than on the university level, but it's a great watch. I highly recommend it, even if it's not what you're looking for.
 
Thanks I'd heard of that one but had thought I was more focused on the elementry school for some reason.

Also I'm hoping for something on Netflix but if its not but you know somewhere to watch it online please link it
