I think my glass has a whole in it, or the ice cubes just sort of dispersed themselves while I was gone all night. I remember when I use to crave the internet like a bad case of pneumonia, but now I really only use my computer for maybe 20 mins a day. I suppose all interest has failed because I know what to use it for, and when I need it.. its there. Plus I’ve gotten sick of attacking my myspace with new features and posting journals on here every other week or less. I guess its because if I really have something on my mind it wont last long enough to get it into some sort of text document. That and I probably explain it to everyone here.
What a strange system we have created in this country. Education has gone to hell. Schools are producing too many autonomous children, driven to achieve some stupid facade of personal wealth and a sad attempt at relationships. Makes me glad to have had a very diverse schooling career. Did you know all the text books sold nation wide are scrutinized by a small little Texas based non profit, seeking to spread their message of abstinence, creationism, and Judeo-Christian philosophies? well its true. And the people who started it had no educational backing either. And now they've trained an entire army of these so called "saviors of the education system" to go state to state, protesting and complaining about different atrocious things in our texts. Its nice to know that as long as we have groups like this around I wont have to see a black athlete or a women with a baby in my text book. Cause heaven forbid we embrace a few stereo types.
It’s hard sometimes to take the log out of your own eye when staring at others, but I’m working on it. I seem to be bent on trying to elevate my own situation by picking apart other peoples I know from college. But at the same time, its only healthy I think to realize who your friends really are in your eyes. This is a pretty big tangent, and kind of a convoluted story. Keeps floating up in my head though.
