Writer's Block: Back to School
Jan. 15th, 2009 09:51 am[Error: unknown template qotd]
If I had the chance to start my life all over again, I'd stay away from schools altogether, given the chance.
I always loathed going to school. I was one of the few kids who actually went there to try to learn something, rather than to establish my place in the social order as everyone else seemed hell bent on doing.
This day and age, the social stratification of schools has reached levels of obscenity undreamed of by anyone of my generation could possibly imagine, to the point where I honestly believe that members of each stratum seem to be living in different worlds: they only seem to coexist in the same place and time by accident.
