Sometimes I get sad when I think about how the only math I do anymore if for knitting or sewing. But then I decide I shouldn't be sad because at least I'm doing some math, however little, and that my fancy high school calculator is still getting used for something. I do think it's depressing to think about all the science, math, history, etc. I learned in school is slowly dripping out of my atrophying (I might have made this word up) brain, though. Like today at work when I was trying to make a line graph in Excel (my achilles heel of the microsoft office suite) and I had to stop and think which was the "X" axis and which was the "Y."
But, yay! I'm already planning my baby quilt. I opted to use the "What a Bunch of Squares" pattern from DSQ.
I truly don't care for school anymore. I don't want to go in the morning. Or stay all day. I don't want to do the homework when I get home.
It seems like all school is, is a prison. Doing the same routine every day, five days a week. It's murder. All the adult's say that high school is supposed to prepare you for the real world.
Why? Why is it that you can't grow up and do what you want? Everyone predicts themselves putting on a suit and tie every day, sitting in the same cubical for eight hours and their life being hell.
Why? Why not go to hollywood and try to be an actress? Why not go to a record company and try to get your band signed? Why do you have to be stuck in the norm and be a clone of everyone else?
Personally I would rather deal with having my life be one big question. Not knowing what I was going to do that day, if anything at all. Then knowing everything was secure and going through hell until I die.
