My Monologue

Well, its time to study for my midterm tomorrow.

Lets flip open these books, and study for the next several hours. After all, that what college is. Seclusion at its finest, if I keep doing my academic work, maybe ill make it someday.

Thats what we all tell ourselves, or at least we’ve been taught to believe.

But all this studying and devotion to excellence, where does it take us? Does it help us reach our goals, or numb our brains over the course of the next couple of years until we get to the point where we work as mindless minions benefitting the institution and those who run it; the elite.

What a profound inquiry I just made about our educational system. Is there truth in it, or nah?

All this philosophical thinking is extraordinary, maybe academia is is the inspiration for this, maybe the system works.

What great philosophical knowledge, too bad my midterm tomorrow is in history.
