Unreal Idiocy

So, have you ever had a teacher assign some insanely long project due within an impossibly short time-frame? Yeah, I hate that. Do these teachers ever take a look at the perfectly ridiculous rubrics they print out for assignments? I can't quite believe what I look at when I see "Project must last 10 minutes" when we only received 30 to work on it! And it's supposed to be a well thought out play.

Bollocks on you.

I know, I know, a lot of people think that the time period and place, Mideval Europe, would be an interesting topic to do a play on. I've got news for you: IT'S NOT. Here, let me summarize the entire segment of history for you in about two sentences. First, some people banded together and made castles. They either got sick or killed each other, but all ended up dying.

Gee, look at that! I just accurately portrayed the history of Europe within three seconds! *Sigh* This assignment is going to be the death of me.

...And I'll walk outside the lines...

I know a lot of people who like to think they have it rough, who like to think that the whole world is against them. People who sit in class and complain about their lives and how they'd like it if it ended. I know there's at least one person who really means it, and I'm not talking about them.

The Rest of You? Piss on you.

Life is one of the most precious gifts one can have, something that can only be received once. Ever. You can give it, but only by learning the lessons of life and finding that special somebody. Sitting in the chair and complaining to people that REALLY don't care about something you REALLY don't mean is NOT the way to go.

This is also known as Common Sense.

Somebody once said that A Life Is A Terrible Thing To Waste. They were right. I'm calling all of your bluffs right now; learn to take the good with the bad. If a tough situation comes up, get yourself over it and then get over yourself.
