Your a wind Dragon! Hey, you, the smartest dragon
of the branch. You love reading and writing,
but are quite shy. Your IQ is probably sky-high
and your stories can win trophies. Your not
very good in sports, or maybe you are, and just
not inrested.. You are very wise, smart, and
kind.
What elemental dragon are you?

I want to learn again. I want an educational system that actually allows for free thought. I'm sick of the system. And I'm sick of being constantly angered and depressed by the sheer lack of knowledge among people my age. You know one of my best friends asked me this afternoon where "that free speech rule thing" is. "It's in the Constitution, right?" I nearly cried.
I've dug into a rut so deep that I've become completely drained of creative impulse. I sat down at the computer the other day, looked at the keyboard, and realized that not only did I not have any story ideas, I also had no clue what to write in response to anyone who has talked to me recently. I had a complete mental shutdown, lost all contact with the words I usually handle so well. It was scary, really.
I hope something changes soon. I don't know how much longer I can stand this. I get to go visit my best friend over spring break, so that'll be something. Maybe that'll help me pull out of this. And we're getting into the time of year when there're a lot more holidays... and the school year is only a couple months from being over. *sigh* I'll just keep telling myself that.
I don't handle routines well. I'm not like a lot of people; I thrive on constant change.
Some people in one of my favorite classes started cracking mean jokes about homosexuality and transgender operations today. I don't think they even understood their own cruelty. Why are people so dead to the world? Do they not feel any empathy or sympathy at all? Is it just America? If so, why can't I move to Canada? Or New Zealand, or England? I've got friends outside the country, can I come crash with you guys until America learns its lesson? I love the founding principles of my country, but its current state of willful ignorance and desensitized cruelty is absolutely disgraceful to the name of democracy.
I started reading Brave New World by Aldous Huxley today. This rant has been brought to you by the sense of complete and utter horror that this book is instilling in me.
*sigh* I'm done now.
