Well, being a first year University student, I'm officially confused. Our whole lives, we're preached that education is important. It is, don't get me wrong. Education is going to get me to where I want to be. However, I think I've sort of given up on the whole institution of education. How is it that we bust our asses to get into University only to realize it's a big joke once we get there. Classes go from one extreme to another. Either, they are extremely hard and there's no amount of studying that can help you get a good grade. I've been told that this is because the professor wants to "crack" us and see who really wants to be there. Then, you have classes that are so easy and that the three hour OPEN BOOK exam that you have in that class takes you 45 minutes to write.
Anyways, I think I'm ranting.
I do think that education is important, clearly, since I want to become a teacher. I think that my faith in the institution just needs to be restored a little bit. Maybe I should pay a visit to my favorite teacher from high school...
XXOX, J.
