We're livin on a prayer.

I really feel like it right now, but i fucking LOVE IT!

So, I am a few weeks into my Junior year of high school. I have decent classes, and good teachers. I love public speaking, and AP english language. The teachers are great, and the discussion I have with the students is also amazing. Even though i can't stand math, i really like my teacher. AP Enviro Fascism class is a joke as I predicted, and even though I love history, I cannot stand my honors history class. It bores me. And as always, I love making suggestive shirts in graphics class.

And you know what? I am not doing homework.

Recently, I read Anthem, by Ayn Rand. I also started reading, Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting.

I really related to Anthem because of it's setting in a future distopia, which is so similar to school.

Excuse me your life is waiting affirmed something I have been keeping the faith on for years now. I always told myself, that this was not all there is to life. There is more than going to high school, breaking your back in college, and then getting a shit job and fucking to get some kids out in the world. I swore to myself this was true. Finally, this book tells me that this reality we are all supposedly forced to deal with is of our own shitty making, and that no, we do not need to accept it. I put to practice the methods in this book and believe it or not, this stuff really works amazingly well, and I love every minute of it.

I feel like I am jivin with the universe right now, and I love it.

Fuck all this bullshit at school. Fuck it, what the fuck are you all doing wasting your damn lives away?

I feel right as if everything will be taken care of. I have no fears, no reservations, about anything. Everyone is going to break there back for nothing, and I am going to live to be happy :]

Same here. Except I never read that book... it sounds interesting though. But yeah, I never really accepted it when everyone was panicking around me and telling me this stuff is soooo important and that I neeeed to do it or else I'll be miserable... it simply is untrue. I'm glad you found that as well It's really a great feeling, not caring about other people's silly reactions. And you can do pretty much anything you want with your life, and you don't need to plan every tiny move carefully in advance. Living isn't like some gigantic business strategy. It's whatever you want it to be.

I know its great
But the song that tells my feeling about school is "It's My Life" by Bon Jovi also ;D

I wonder if Bon Jovi IS singing about the horrors of school sometimes

[classclown]

yea i love the law of attraction.

[Fuckthesystem]

It's funny how no one knew that song even existed until Guitar Hero: World Tour and Rock Band 2 came out.

Stop bumping threads with posts that have nothing to do with the topic.

[Amortisatie]

I was forced to read Anthem in English,then i realised how much their society sounded like school

[Elfy]

Woop! Glad you're happy

You're right I'd estimate about 95% of the population has been brainwashed into this reality. Be born , Go to school "to get a good job", leave go to college and get a job, live in a family and die. Its like a fucking routine.

I agree once you realise that this reality is so full of bullshit you will feel so much better. Like a tonne of weights have just came off your back. You will realise that almost 100% of your peers are brainwashed into this, you either laugh or cry.

You realise that your so called teachers have absolutely no "authority" or power over anyone and that goes for every human. They're only brainwashed anyway and I'l laugh at them because they look like complete idiots to me. "Do this or you will be punished." Who the fuck do they think they are?

And then its sad to think that almost all the people in my school follow this reality. They obey their teachers like they're some sort of god.

I remember, once, when this child cried when a teacher shouted at him and I was thinking... we're sinking lower...

In my opinion the "geniuses" are the ones who realise that school is so full of crap.

At the moment we are living and it feels like we are living with a big sheet over our lives called brainwashing. Once you remove the sheet its like you're free from a 100 year old frozen ice-cube.

Like you and Soulriser said : Its a brilliant feeling. At my school people panic when they forget homework or something similar, I haven't done it and I'm just laughing at the idiots...

Nothing matters. Nothing. But we need to lift the sheet off the people that are asleep.

Absolutely nothing matters. We are so fucked as a people. We are enslaved. Can anyone imagine a world without money?

What the fuck are we doing? We do not live long enough to have this!

[Elfy]

Yes its fucked up.


I can imagine a world with no money... ahhh.......

I'd have my own 'lil farm


And you're right life is short. Death is eternity. Make the most of it , if you want to.

I don't know about you Aleksandr but sometimes I feel trapped in the current state we live in, how I and a minority of people realise how fucked up it is. The rest ...just.... fucking sheep.

There is already and never has been government , or law , or compulsory stuff.

THAT is what makes me want to throttle the shit out of the enforcers.

[milkduds]

i really wish this world didnt revolve around money. live life easy kick back and relax get a little farm as matty555 said =P plant just enough crops to live on. go fishing everyday that is my ideal life. to bad this world is fucked up and only a small fraction of the people in this world still can think for themselves

oooo ima try to start reading again school kinda killed it for me... always forced to read stupid books that had nothin to do with my future. i havnt been in school for a month and half and i plan on going back soon but as a new person and not a stupid mindless sheep like most of the people

Oooo reading is good , there are some good books.

I would recommend:

Grace Llewellyn - The teenage liberation handbook (how to get out of school)

The Truancy - Great fiction book about a guy named tack who loathes school and joins up with a group called the truancy on their quest to take down the mayor / government.

Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting: The Power of Positive Feelings - Brilliant book.



Also there are a few John Taylor Gatto books online =D

No Doubt covered it a few years back, so I knew.
Don't generalise please.

[assaultmedic]

I had to read Anthem in the beginning of the year. I enojyed every page of it and thought it conveyed a brilliant message. I can totally agree with what you are saying about life.
