<p>anyone else feel this way? i mean wut the ****? is this what humans were created for? seriously there has to more than just studying, going to work, marriage blah blah blah. </p>
<p>sometimes i just want to drop everything and live a new life. actually i am doing that. im graduating a year early and i am gonna go ***** crazy in college. </p>
<p>speaking of b******, i have a theory on asian mom's and why they want us to do oh so well in highschool:</p>
<p>Most of them are uneducated or are immigrants from the motherland. They don't understand the American education system. They don't realize that with a 3.0 GPA, you can have a damn happy, prosperous life. And with all this studying, they have no time to learn social skills. Asian parents assume that there sons/daughters will learn these social skills later in life. But no. That's why all these asian girls/boys are so socially awkward. It's so ****ed up. There's this asian girl in my class and she will not talk to anyone. I asked her a question once and she didn't even look up, not because she was acting snobby but because she didn't no what the hell to say. </p>
<p>And another thing. Why do asian parents want us to do well in college? Well in the end, it's for the moolah. seriously they are so obsessed with money. Well you see, that's another reason why asians are portrayed so negatively in the media. Almost no asians are in government, teaching, etc. Always in engineering and ****. We need to show our faces. we need to get in politics and more public jobs even though we get paid less. oh my god it just makes me mad</p>
<p>so basically my belief system is this. life comes first, money comes last. man up and blend in for godsakes.</p>
<p>anyone else feel this way? or am i the only one? this post probably doesn't even makes sense..</p>
<p>yeah, sometimes I feel the same as you. You just have to throw off all the pressures and expectations everyone has for you and think about what you yourself want. Not to say you should just be lazy and drop out or whatever, but prioritize your dreams before others’</p>
<p>what doesnt kills you, bores you…hahaha.
i understand the asian mom part. thats why so many asian students end up havin the lowest grades in top schools since their parents arent there anymore to control them.</p>
<p>Welcome to your first existential breakout. I had my first when I was like in 5th grade and they’ve occurred intermittently since. At first they’re complete nonsense (like the one you’ve spewed) but over time they gradually become more coherent, more solemn, more harrowing…But it’s all the same crap.</p>
<p>If it really suits your fancy, go ahead, be a hedonist. Or you could take the path two of my friends took and kill yourself (not recommended). But just like in college admissions, the best way to tackle life is to find your passion. And unlike college admissions, I mean a genuine passion (and I truly believe every person on this earth has one for something). If you struggle to find meaning in life, it’s not because it isn’t there, it’s because you haven’t found it yet. In the meantime, it’s wise to keep your options open and to get good grades (there really aren’t many passions that involve deliberately being a bad student but there are many that involve being a good one). Note, though, that this shouldn’t take a precedence over what you are passionate about, or your happiness (and I don’t mean stress - I mean substantial depression).</p>
<p>I agree with you. My life is so effing boring. Here in my city, many people are rich except me. I’m not as rich as everyone else. Therefore I don’t fit in and I have NO FRIENDS. But I run XC and track.</p>
<p>Worse: I never get invited to party. GEEZ. I do like to party to be honest. WHY CAN’T PEOPLE INVITE ME TO PARTIES? The people who know me and talk to me a lot don’t invite me. What is seriously wrong with me? WHY? What did I do to deserve this?</p>
<p>Now if somebody will please tell me how to get invited to parties in high school, that would make my day. Thank you.</p>
