I don’t want to go back to school after this week long vacation. it’s crazy how much I learn when I’m not in school - about the world, my community, and myself. a lot of the time I feel like this stuff is more important than math or history. personally, this week I’ve been able to reconnect with a. God, and b. a lot of people I’ve been needing to spend time with. sometimes it is just crazy how much a week of having no school can change you and de-stress your head. you get into this place of peace and contentment with yourself and school comes along and destroys it. I don’t take my education for granted, yet sometimes I feel like all we really need is basic knowledge to go out and learn ourselves. all the other nonsense is simply that, nonsense. I sometimes wonder if school alone is the reason why we are the way we are. why people are depressed and killing themselves and unhappy. who knows. all I know is that I would ultimately be a lot happier without it, and would probably know the same amount I do now. how much do we retain anyways? the best lessons are always self-taught and the best knowledge we can ever gain is knowing who we are… and being proud of that. why is our education system suppressing it?
