http://www.meaning.ca/articles/basis_of_genius.htmIt is a pretty well written essay, however, in my opinion, they seemed to have faltered away from the title, which is "What is the Basis of Genius" to the arguement that public schooling is ignorant and should be changed. Anybody who went to public school knows this, even if they don't know what a closed and open system is. College is no different. Here I am, stuffed into a mold, told to think and act a certain way in order to get a worthless shitty piece of paper saying I'm smart enough to work with chemicals and shelve out pills to the ignorant public. Ugh!
If you haven't guessed, I am not happy about college. I'm seeing it all as a waste of my damn time and money. I'm not learning anything I don't already know!! Its very frustrating. Everybody I talk to about my boredom, says that I should either, A. Drop out of college., or B. Go to a different college. Well then, if it were that damn easy, then I wouldn't be writting now would I? If I drop out of college, then I have nowhere to go, I and my mind would rot somewhere in some hellhole of a factory, putting together latex stoppers and chatting with ignorant 18 year olds. This is one, if not my biggest fear in life. I really don't want to end up a nothing, working with my hands for the rest of my life. If that is my destiny....well, It won't. I refuse!
I've also tried looking into other colleges, but they all want six grand to tell me the same damn things I am "memorizing" at the college I go to now. I tried getting scholarships, but denied across the board. They keep sending me the forms back asking for tax info that I already gave them. The ignorancy of the Bureaucracy is completely frustrating. Oh well, take a deep breath, calm yourself down, meltdowns not allowed. Especially over the world you cannot change...ok. I'm good now. Sorry about that.
Its all about control. Money, God, Government, all parts of a puzzle that fits together perfectly to control the masses. Its all good. Without it, there would be chaos, and nobody wants that. I applaud it.
On the lighter side of life, I hung out with Casey for the first time in what seemed like forever. It was a lot of fun. We listened to some good comedy songs and then went to the mall. We didn't do a lot, but we still had fun. Can't wait till AJ gets back. Musically, I'm ready to create. But it all depends on what the other guys think of the direction we should head in. I don't want to build up too much anticipation for the twentieth either, because it would only result in major disapointment. I really don't need a dishearten malfunction. But I am ready when we all get together. It will be fun, and I will be positive. It is all about mentality. Remember to check out that article, it is very good stuff.
