GOING TO COMIC/GAMES FEST THIS SAT!
Yes, I know, prelims in six days.
Yes, I know, O's in 73 days.
But hey, I think we should like spend some time to really relax somehow. Considering that studying non-stop is rather self-destructive.
And I just realised I'm still quite laid back about everything, considering how I take time off everyday to spend some quality time with my laptop and still go out quite often. Quite often, as in, at least twice a week. Which is something, since I come back at about 5 from school almost every day.
Oh, today we had a very interesting Lit lesson. More so than usual, although it had little to do with Lit. (predictable, yeah) Instead of randomly getting distracted in the midst of stating a point, Mr. C actually stayed on ONE topic and talked about it at great lengths. Which was rather enlightening. He talked about how the fastest way to change your social and economical status was through education.
Which, although is true, quite depressing - as he also mentioned it would take a few generations for this to change. Even so, I don't think it's something quite set in stone. Imagine, eventhough you're like completely successful; what if the next generation abhors studying? What if they squander everything you earn? Then again, if you change your socioeconomic status through less than stellar means, it didn't make you any better than you were before.
You'd just be, instead of; a low class guy without money, a low class guy with money.
I suppose, that by itself has some perks.
