I have to say I felt the same way you did about school at once but really...you're going to come to realize that as much of a bullshit instituion school really is, you're going to have to get through it if you want to live comfortably throughout life. I really hate school and I do agree they're trying to mold people into one type but...if you're really intelligent the best thing to do is grin and bear with it just to get through it and be able to live ultimately better. Education=money and money is, sadly, what makes the world go round, as crappy as that is.

yea. i know giving them that shit eating grin while thinking about what i'd like to say to them would be the way to go ultimately..but im too proud to let them make me cover myself up and go along with the bs - if that makes sense. If i was in classes that i truly wanted to be in - like i would take in freetime, this would be killer - or even the same classes just with out all these rules and regulations and being treated like a guinea pig, i'd be much more up to it. but yea..damn.. your right - education leads to money and money does make the world go round...it is sad. The way i feel in my heart is that money and possessions dont really matter - sure if i was homeless i would have to give up photography and all this stuff....but i'd be able to spend my time enjoying life and nature, taking in the world . i could find enough cans to cash in to buy food for a day + cigz and all. i dunno - in my head i think i could handle it - it would be an adventure without a set destination. I do it alot - going out with out a plan. like when i ( ... )

Yeah, it's an experience and I'm sure it seems fun but it really isn't, and you lose a lot of things like fun and friends and say goodbye to ever having a chance of getting laid by anyone who isn't a crackwhore again. Society sucks, but that's what we live in. Believe me being homeless isn't as easy as a typical domesticated American would think it is. Americans are lazy and bratty by nature (no offense, I think we're all like that). It's really, REALLY hard for any American used to all their gadgets and gismos to survive without them for too long. Since it's summer you should probably try the homeless thing out for like a week or two and see if you like it enough to actually try to do it for the rest of your life. I've done it before and it really blows. I felt the same way you did too. I thought "how great it would be without rules and living in an adventurous world!" But then between all the people wanting to kill/kick your ass for no reason on the street, hunger, boredom, and just all around general uncomfortability I was wishing ( ... )

oh - i know its not easy. i know homeless people , they're some of the greatest people and its sad they fucked their life up like that - but the freedom does have a certain appeal - and perhaps your right and i dont understand...if i lived in a place with actual stuff i would try it - but i'm out in nature -.- i plan on using my trips to observe and learn about myself and of human nature - and just kind of explore what im going for with this life..maybe i'll come to a hypothesis...maybe
