You ever feel like there's too much to do, and not only is there too much to do, but a lot of it is simply pointless.  What if you could allocate all the free time you would have if you didn't have to do all that meaningless stuff to doing things that you would do had you had the time and energy to do them?  You follow?  I didn't think so, so I'll just move on...  Yes, there's a point to this... and no, I'm not just sitting here in the middle of an empty night with work in the morning, just sitting and typing random words that together form strange structures otherwise known as sentences, which if used correctly, can accurately convey the mood of their writer.  Nah, the bright laptop screen isn't the only light source in the room currently illuminating my handsome self.

Does school ever seem repetitive and useless?  Does it seem as if the learning process itself, once mastered, is enough to lead somebody through any situation without the need to pay somebody else thousands of dollars to stand in front of you preaching the material as if you're incapable of learning it on your own, to supervise you.  But you have to, else how will anybody else truly believe that you're capable of what you say you are.  You need that degree, don't you?  Don't I?  Sometimes you have to do things cuz that's just the way things have come to be, and in order for you to move forward with your life, you have to go ahead and gut it out....

More, but not now, maybe tomorrow? Does that work with you? Don't be surprised if tomorrow turns to days, and eventually weeks.  But I hope not, but who knows.

It's not very difficult to move forward with your life without those things. Wealthy societies have very biased and skewed ideas of what "forward" means.

Just as only the rich and noble-blooded were given any authoritative respect hundreds of years ago, and the rest shunned... only the educated and wealthy are given it today, and those who pursue other goals in life, perhaps more introspective and generous ones, are shunned. Sad, that we still have so far to come in this regard.

I get a little disillusioned with my degree occasionally... but it doesn't ever take long to remember that, globally speaking, I and pretty much everyone else getting such degrees are at the 'top of the pile' in terms of ease of living. Things could be a lot worse in many respects. Having such a thing as 'free time' in the first place is a luxury.

So just do as you say - get through. Once it's done it's done.
