random rant
college is shit. we all get suckered into it because now if you DON'T go to college, you can't drive a fancy car, or live in a half-million dollar home, and fuck a supermodel. well i don't want any of that. i want to bring pleasure into people. i like being able to manipulate some. there's nothing better when people who don't know any better actually look up to you, and think, i wish i was more like him. not only is it sad but it's funny. and i enjoy every fucking minute of it.
so... why have i decided to ban college? well, first off, i can't afford it anymore. secondly, i hate the way we are taught in america. what is the point of sitting in a class, writing down squiggly lines til our hands cramp up, only to have to try and decipher our handwriting so we can cram that information into our brains for one semester. i can't do that.
i've had a handful of professors who have a different approach... LEARN. they just lecture you. and not lecture to the point where you're falling asleep, no. you sit there on the edge of your seat waiting to just soak up any word that comes rolling out of the professors mouth. the type of learning that makes you want to stay in your seat for hours. the type of learning that you don't reach for your phone every 2 minutes to see if it's time to go yet. THAT'S what i enjoy.
unfortunately, at least at FIU, you don't get much of that. it's all, take notes, cram, regurgitate. and for what? so you have a fucking peice of paper that says you have a degree. a peice of paper that cost you thousands and for what? i would love to teach. and i know i'd be very very very dedicated to my students, but i can't finish college. i hate it with a passion. i hate the people that attend, the people in my classes who think they're so bright, yet they make asses of themselves everytime they speak.
i want a better option than this. i guess i'm gonna have to work extra hard on playing bass. because i've realized two things lately. the only things that bring me TRUE happiness are nature and music.
even though florida lacks interesting nature, i love it. i'm dying to live somewhere different. where your backyard is a thick blanket of green, or woods, dense woods.
and it's off to work. another one of man's god-awful creations. let's break our backs just so we can pay off bills and make someone else richer.
i can't wait til our money system collapses and everyone just goes into a frenzy. i'm glad i'm poor.
i really am.
poor = better than most of you.
