I think it would be very valuable to get real life experiences to use the skills learned in school. Of course there's some question if you learn skills in school except between classes. Random facts don't help as much as if the teachers taught you how to think, but they don't know, so that won't work. The excersize can actually improve your overall health, if you don't overdue it, and spead up your metabolism or increase your alertness/energy level toward learning quicker. Give you a change of pace from prison life. Give you experiences out of the box not canned. Develop observation and thinking/people skills. Real life info. And of course buy school things like study aids, movie tickets, gas. Oh, and keep you out of trouble maybe. You can always quit and works somewhere else in 4 month to experience more types on work situations and decide, hey, this has got to go too, and figure out a more interesting way to make a living. Ha. Three weeks might be good. Tell your folks your plan so they won't think your flighty and don't use that experience on a resume/application. Resumes don't work, by the way, face to face does. Get some spirituality in for inspiration. Variety,
