Hey everyone, how are you? I'm doing well today. I'm just enjoying my day off from work. I don't really want to go to work tomorrow but I know I have too. Darn these stupid grown-up responsibilities. I actually prefer to work and go to college than to be in high school. I had no freedom when I was in high school. I had to do everything my mom said and I was never aloud to hang out with friends. At least now because I have to give her my whole paycheck, then I get to go out sometimes. Ugh I just want to leave home so bad though.Today I have a gloomy feeling for no reason. It's strange. I feel okay but I feel so sad too. It's weird but I don't know what it is. I guess maybe I'm just a little depressed. I still have a light flare up but I think tomorrow I will go back into remission. I am taking all my medicine like I should but apparently, no matter what, I will always get sick. even if I take care of myself.... It feels useless but I pray every night that God will keep me safe from this disease.
I think today, I will do some stretches and get back into that habit. I sort of stopped because I was working and I was tired after work. But now I changed my availability because my first class starts August 25th!!!! Oh I cannot wait. I love school so much! I don't know what I would do without it. Oh Oh which reminds me: Yesterday, I was checking out and a lady with her children were buying school supplies and the youngest girl who had to be at least 13 years old mumbled "I hate school so much. It sucks." This question popped into my mind:
Why do American children hate school so much?
I was thinking of some possibilities like maybe it's because school has turned into a popularity game and a social activity that most people have a hard time participating in or maybe children just have bad habits of not wanting to exercise their brain but the answer that I think really works is that
Children are made to go to school and it's free and given to them without any hardships. If school was taken away from us and we had to grow up working our whole lives and denied the right to educate ourselves children may want to go to school and become something other than a common person.
I was denied the right to go to school by my mother. She kept me home as a "home schooled" child and I had to work and do chores, become a maid for other people and raise my little brother while my mother was gone. I was unable to really learn and be in a school like every other American child could. I begged my mother to let me go but she said no and that I was not ready yet. I was home schooled from 6th grade to 10th grade. And with that time I taught myself everything I know. Me and my sister blew our school teachers away. We both graduated high school with 4.0 GPAs. It could have been higher if I actually went to school all four years. And now I am in college and I wont ever give up school. I don't know what I would do if I wasn't a student.... But I think that is why most children hate school. Do you have any ideas as to why?
Anyway, I am gonna get going now. I gots things to do. Some dishes, sweeping, and talking to my amazing boyfriend. Thank you all for your wonderful comments. I will read and comment on you guys later too! Don't worry.
LUV YA!
