Planning to think, some day.
Planning 10 is a bullshit class. It's so badly thought out. There's enough course material for five weeks, maybe, and yet they take up a whole block for a whole year. Garg.
But that's not what I'm here to talk about.
We got an assignment today, your basic ridiculous "honestly state your goals given your strengths and weaknesses. Later on, I'll become a teacher or something - of course I'll never be a mechanic or a mathmetician (too technical)or an athlete (I'm clumsy and graceless), but none of that has any real bearing on my sixteen year old life. So I digressed.
I was thinking about the maybe-kinda-sorta syndrome. The idea that you have to qualify everything because you've been wrong before and, hey, you're just covering your ass, eh? I think that that idea is bull. shit. Whatever you have to say, whatever you put forward... for better or for worse, that's who you ARE. You shouldn't limit yourself just because you might be wrong no more that you should call of a hike (to an amazing view) just because their might be bears, or, I don't know, burden yourself with body armour because fatal shootings are up 7% since 2001 and you might get shot, 'cause god damn we are who ae are, limitations and strengths and all, and nobody ever learned or matured or did great things by being timid.
Unapologetically yourse, Devon.
