I don't want to do homework, and I don't want to spend more time searching for information that doesn't seem to exist.
I was sitting in class today, listening to my classmates talk about thinking about thinking, and I just didn't care. I didn't agree with the article we had read, thought the author was kind of a jerk, and honestly just didn't want to be there.
And I was thinking about something that they tell you when you go to college: you should spend 3 hours of studying/homework for every hour you spend in class. According to that estimate, I should be spending 42 hours, in addition to my 14 hours of class, every week on school. Which, quite frankly, is a giant load of bullcrap. Show me someone who can spend 56 hours a week on mentally challenging work, and I will shake their hand. Because I couldn't do it. I can't do it.
All this to say, that I wish it was spring break. I wish I was home, and not worrying about this stuff (though, let's be honest, I will have homework over break, so I will be worrying about it.). I just want to be able to complete this homework, without feeling like I'll let down my teacher if I can't find what he wants me to look for.
Eugh. :( I understand your vehement feelings of yuckiness towards school. Especially that fear of letting down your teacher (I hate that so very much.) (Also, I've been told you should spend two hours studying for every credit hour, and I don't even usually do that. Three hours is pretty much compeltely insane.) Only one more day! And we will have lots of epic fun while you are in Kalamazoo!
