syntax, red tape, and sick babies
College isn't for me.
I think it is rediculous and a complete waste of my time at the moment.
I love learning but that isn't what I am doing. I spend hours upon hours working on spanish that I already know, Chem that I already know, and math that is rediculously easy while trying to ignore my immature neighbors who think that drawing a penis on my door, knocking, giggling, and running away is EXTREMELY funny.
I spend my time trying to answer my correct answers into webassign so that it sees that they are infact correct.
I spend my time going to classes where I learn nothing from professors who think that their class is the best use of my time. But it isn't.
I can't help but think that while I am wasting my time relearning the present tense in spanish, stoiciometry in chemistry, and unit circle nonsense in math...
I could be back in the orphanage in Huancayo holding Nichol or Gabby,
helping Ingrid learn how to divide,
teaching Giscella that hitting and pulling hair is bad.
Changing Bola's diaper when her mom is too sick to do it.
Telling Olga that we love her even though her father doesn't.
Telling Nichol that even though her mother abandoned her and not her other 9 children, she is special and won't die alone.
Helping Ingrid live her life knowing that her mother and 2 younger sisters will die soon and that she will be left alone in this world.
Helping Vicki (a 12 year old)take care of dieing babies.
Handing out food to those who are hungry, giving medicine to those in need, educating, listening, and playing.
But no, I'm sitting here messing with math syntax, surrounded by people who, like all of us, forget what other things are going on in the world.
These things are so insignificant and feel like such a waste of time.
I hate red tape, why can't I take classes at my level where I am actually learning something?
I'd much rather be doing something important
In other news.... there is a market on campus with 80+ venders and I swear at least half of them are peruvian. :)
