(no subject)
I'm starting to get really tired of school. Ever since I took that November the 5th off, I realized that I hate school very much. I got more done in that one day than I have in the last two weeks of school. And, the things I got done by myself, at home, are more important to my future than half the stuff we do at school. I mean, I've been going to the same school for soooo long, and everything stays exactly the same, but gets worse at the same time. I don't even want to pay attention in classes anymore. I would rather try to entertain myself in any way possible than do school things.
At the beginning of the year, I was extremely excited that a few people had discovered what I did about a year and half ago. That would be Atlas Shrugged, of course. Sean had read it and was talking about it ALL THE TIME. Chris was starting it, and other people were starting to realize what the deal with it was. That was exciting. I still can't help but be happy when I hear people voice what I am thinking, but all the arguing is getting SO OLD. I'm kind of over it. It's hard for me to understand the purpose of arguing for the sake of an argument. Maybe the first few are fun, but when they happen over and over on the same subject, can't you learn that no one's mind is going to change? If no one ever learns, what is the point of arguing? If someone chooses to remain wrong, why put out the effort for them? There doesn't seem to be a reason to. I know what I know, and I have decided that I am right. Since I have realized that people won't change their minds if they don't want to, I don't see the point in trying to convince them of anything. I guess it could be fun to argue about this stuff for no reason, but can't you save it for some other time? We could be getting homework done in school so that when we get home, we can actually do what we want. I love when someone mentions an idea that I believe in, but to refute it simply because you can doesn't seem right. It just seems repetitive. We get hung up on the same subject with the same few people talking in almost every class whenever we have a discussion. Nothing gets done when that happens. It's like, if someone won't find out for themself, why is it my (Or a few other certain people's) job to help them? It's not.
UG. School is so frustrating. The only reason I go is because my friends are there, too, and they hate it as much as I do.
