And Life Goes On
March 4, 2010
Rushing and pledging for APO has singlehandedly been the smartest thing I’ve done since I got here at ESF. My big and twin are awesome. My family is flippin’ amazing. Running for vice president of fellowship, as much work as it is, is probably going to be a smart investment in my part. I’ve rarely stayed in the background when it comes to things like these so hopefully, everything will just fall in place. Anyway, I found this on my Tumblr that I wrote a few months back. Funny thing is that I still feel the same way….I usually change my mind after a way or two. So for those who didn’t read this, enjoy my cynicism.
God, college is so fundamentally boring and mostly useless that I wish I just dropped out of H.S., got a GED, took out a few loans, and started my own business. Life would be so much more simplistic that way. Yet, I know I could never do something like that because I’m just pathetic that way. We’re all kind of pathetic that way.
Society has set a standard for us and we are raised to believe and follow that standard. Heh…look at where that kind of mentality has bought us today.
Deforestation, global climate change, starvation, war, crime, corruption. Yet, these things are fueled by the very things we want to achieve and have in life: money, consumerism, wealth, power, fame.
Whoa, there I am…at it again. I’m such a hypocrite. I write about all these grievances but I have done absolutely nothing to help resolve them. If anything, I have contributed to them.
I write. Abstract. Think. Where the fuck is the action?
Society has bred all of us to become the mindless, useless, conventional zombies that we are today. I am just as ignorant, pretentious, and stupid as the next person in line waiting for something interesting to happen.
So yeah, I still think we’re mindless drones. Hurray!
Cheers,
