if only motivation pills for education were invented.
the thought about thinking about my future
drains me.

i was studying at the dining area this afternoon
and after 2 chapters,
i gave up attempting more questions.
while staring at the huge picture on the wall on my left,
i heard my mom call out to me,
"Do you want to study? If not, let's watch TV"

"How can you discourage me and distract me?
You study my notes now and let me borrow your brain on monday."

"I don't even like to study!" she replied,
and she switched the TV on.

now i see where my genes are coming from.

i like how i'm living my life -- sitting on the edge of a rotting cliff if you must say,
but if you want to compare to people who get fucked up about their studies,
i ain't such a person.

i guess i could understand their point of view on priorities,
that is to study as hard as possible and achieve whatever they want next,
be it wealth, recognition or acceptance.

but hey, i want something else.
even if it takes me 60 years to find it.



though i'm not quite comfortable with the way things are going,
at least i've got a plan --
which is more than what you can say.
