I feel like I'm not mentally prepared to be in school. I absolutely cannot manage my time. At all. Thus I feel like I shouldn't be in school until I feel like I'm ready. The fact that two of my classmates has already dropped out is not helping. But the society will not allow it. It's been drilled in to our heads that as children/adolescents/teens all we need to do is study study study. Before you know it, we have wasted our glory days/half our lives studying or in school. And most of us end up working jobs we have no interest/hate. So why the rush to finish school? I kind of wish I could stay a teenager forever. Okay, I WANT to stay a teenager forever. Back to my point, I think the education system should extend the schooling period(I know, cray cray right?) and ease the load on students. It's our glory days and it's suppose to be the best years of our lives but all we are going to be doing is cramming for exams? Also, we are most likely to make our life-long friends during this period, and our pastime will be what, studying? Not having fun, like kids/teenagers like us are SUPPOSED to be having? Like partying, clubbing, running around acting crazy/retarded, whatever floats your boat, generally having the time of our lives. Yes, I know and understand we need study and get good grades to get a good job. Which is far from our dream job. And stressful. And has long hours. So, when adults tell us 'pay now, play later', when exactly is 'later'? When we retire and need a hip implant/heart transplant? When we need a wheelchair/walking stick to get around? How the fuck do you expect us to 'play' then huh? You know, without breaking every single motherfucking bone in our body. I really feel like peter pan right now. I would never want to grow up. I hate growing up. I hate a lot of grown ups. But the thing is, people only seem to listen to grown ups. Why? It's not the age that makes people wise, it's the experience, knowledge, teaching and maturity that makes a person wise. A person can live for a hundred year and still be innocent and gullible if the person is sheltered from the world. So, adults know that it won't kill you to maybe try and listen to a kid or teenagers once in a while. Or we are going to grow up learning that kids can't have opinions and the cycle will continue. As usual, I am ending on a topic that I had no intention of getting into. Short attention span FTW. |
