And basically, it's all because of school. School is supposed to prepare me for life. It should help me decide what I want to do with my life by enabling me to discover the areas that I enjoy. Education should let me dabble in many areas, and dig deeper in the ones that truly interest me.
School does none of the above.
It makes me sick to think about the ridiculous number of hours I have spent laboring over a physics lab report, or the wasted time I have spent reading a history textbook that drains all points of interest from American history. I find physics interesting, and history is my favorite subject, but my classes are not doing anything to stimulate these interests. School only suppresses them. The whole education system is so self-destructive. If anything, school should be teaching us a way to live, teaching us study habits, and good work management.
