Just something I thought I had to share.

I've been looking back on my life, particularly my education and I thought of something. We're basically being taught to be machines in some sort of autonomous motion. Think about it for a moment, how you write your essays... Thesis, Intro, Filler, Details, Climax, Conclusion, thats not something that can be remembered easily... If at all because there is nothing in that material of an essay that is worth remembering at times. We find
ourselves talking in the form of essays at times, so what can we do about it?
I find myself loving science and history, as well as music and art. But all of those are being axed in schools these days. I even see it happening in my families' and friends families schools. What the hell is going to happen to our future? I look around here and I see buildings and streets falling apart, people who are unhappy with how everything is going. It's like a game of civilization where many others are ahead of us in technology but we're just trying to upgrade our roads to railroads even though we're in a deficit. Maybe a bad comparison though.
I wonder what it is that we can do to change everything. As of right now I'm planning a lot of things and looking over books I've been collecting as well as changing a ton of my writing. I want stuff that can be remembered, not stuff that looks like its in an essay format.
I would love to continue this but I'm too tired to put anything else but the things inside the comments mostly cover my points. I'm practically appalled.
I mean just look at the comment section here, education is going to crap right now, with a pure emphasis on math and writing.

I think you raise good points there. And I believe the educational system will change over time, wether by us or by future generations. Otherwise things are just going to get worse than how you think things are right now. Thanks for sharing your thoughts~
Also, I'm doing well, romping and stomping, You~ :3
And, all the debt people get into whilst gaining an education.
Definitely food for thought.
I am doing okay. Slowly ahead, by jerks. (emphasize on Jerks!)
