tradition can feel similar to an old item passed down that nobody wants to keep, and that’s exactly what the educational system represents.

remember those old CD cases your grandparents had? they could fetch a little cash on Amazon, but they were mostly worthless, just taking up space and chipping away at your sanity.

i have never seen a more profound punishment than the educational system, which requires us to memorize things we will never use for roughly 12 to 16 years.

i can remember staring at the clock, watching it move slower than a sloth on sedatives.

and for what?

to emerge into the brutal world with the life skills of a goldfish and the existential dread of a philosopher who just realized they forgot to pay their BBC TV tax.

let’s break it down, shall we?

instead of fostering creativity, the system teaches us to color inside the lines, follow instructions, and conform to void

they’re simply teaching us to color inside the lines and take instructions. they are likely preparing us for a world where everyone works in cubicles, and dreams are frozen, deleted, or labeled as “Maybe Later.”

in some private universities burdened by religious entities, they are actually building workers for tomorrow, not leaders. welcome to the system!

let’s dive, mondays are the worst days for both the office and schools, and we dress in corporate attire for both, wearing ties and ID cards in school like we do in the workplace.

stay with me now,

look at the 9-5 system that lecturers kick off from

who do you take instructions from in the office? the lecturers! that’s your HR in schools. both offices and schools have rules and regulations.

on Fridays, we get to wear things that say “casual,” which is the same in schools: workers of tomorrow, take a bow!

here’s my view, which might be burdensome for some: my three years in school were largely about building what i now present, and the classes I took. was the risk worth it? Yes.

the balancing act was difficult. there were times i had important classes but also meetings that were crucial for my future. I paid the price in different ways. “do what makes you happy - do what gives you peace.”

i did enjoy wild parties, but no one knew why. my circle was small, i remember telling my big uncle that I never wanted to go to school. i felt forced to follow a path, but i decided to pursue passion over traditional education.

i spent months and years planning to make life easier after school, locking in my different interests.

people wake up at 30

the educational system has buried street intelligence, critical thinking, and the pursuit of passion, but "pythagoras theorem" it offers wouldn't provide square meals or pay the bills

this uncomfortable chair of an educational system has been passed down through generations like a bad gene, filled with outdated books.

parents have sailed through it, but still, nobody wants to fix this mess. It’s like we’re all stuck in a giant game of telephone, except the message is, “this is how you prepare for life,” and by the time it gets to us, it’s just hopes and dreams.

but we don’t need to pass the baton down. we can do better, teaching ourselves the skills, needs, and passions to prevent the next generation from this nonsense.

until then, let’s all raise a glass to the educational system: the only place where you can spend years learning everything except how to live. Cheers!
