I am tired. Mentally and physically. I don't care about school today. I want to skip class. I want to go back home. I want to take a nap and not wake up until I've got this all sorted out. I can't take much more of this. People do more than this every day. Why can't I? Why am I the weak one who can't manage that balancing act of school, work, and free-time? Every day, school. Long hours of learning nothing. Trying to get all A's even though they aren't proof of intelligence. IN fact, one might argue that poor grades are a better sign of intelligence -- because you are too worried about more important things to care about margins and essays and "many stippled" art projects. Many of the people I knew in highschool, well its funny ... the ones who got horrible grades or dropped early are the smartest ones out there. And look at Jeff, he's going places without even a diploma. And look at the girls who were so perfect and involved in school. I know more than a few of them who are pregnant. So what turned the drop-outs into successes and the honor students into mommies?
When this semester is over I seriously will consider taking the winter off. I can't handle it anymore.
