Blog 46 - hello.
So, me and my roomates watch a lot of disney channel, and a lot of wizards of waverly place, haha. I love that show! Seriously, how awesome would it be to be a wizard. You could poof yourself A's and money, and all you would really want to do is have fun, and learn. Sometimes I think about how schools are set up, like, especially if you want to go to grad school, you have to maintain a good GPA. So, you want a 4.0, but people that want to go to grad school usually like to learn, so you want to take those interesting upper level classes. Since you need a good GPA, i feel like people give up taking challenging courses. It's just not fair, college is kind of hindering you from learning. If I didn't have a GPA to worry about, I would probabbly continue the honors chemistry series. But no, I need good grades for med school! So, I'm going to drop to regular chemistry and take a different honors course. Chemistry is really interesting to me though, and its sad that I can't take it anymore, it just doesn't seem right how that works out. I feel like I need to go to school and take average-ish classes and get good grades and then, i dont know, find a tutor or something outside of school to learn the stuff that i'm missing out on in 202H. Mark Twain is so right, he said "Never let formal education get in the way of your learning." Agreed, Mr. Twain. Formal education is getting in the way of my, and probabbly many other people's, learning right now. Sad, but true. Yah, being a wizard and magically making A's and then getting to take any classes you want and just learn, that would be sweet.

I admit that I watched the Disney Channel when I had tv. I think it makes me still feel like a kid and not so stressed out. I sadly don't have cable though. But that would be awesome! Life would be so much easier if we could magically make A's. I think it'd be less stressful and more fun!
ReplyDeleteSorry you can't take Chemistry anymore. :(
I love the Disney Channel, but then there are worse things I could watch. It is just so easy to watch that stuff and destress, doesn't take too much brain power! I really think OSU would be disappointed to know that someone really WANTS to take Chemistry but feels as though she can't. That is totally NOT what this is about, boo!
ReplyDeleteI think it would be pretty cool to be a wizard. I know what you mean when you say that you are forced to drop a course that you actually find enjoyment in so that you can maintain a good GPA. It doesn't really seem fair, but at the same time, what can you do?
ReplyDeleteI used to watch Disney Channel all the time when I was a kid but I pretty much hate it now. I think it is probably cause that is the only channel my little sister ever watches and it just gets old to me. When High School Musical was popular my sister seriously watched it like a million times and seeing it all the time just made me hate it haha
ReplyDeleteI love disney so much, haha disney everything. Haha awhh well when she grows out of disney maybe you'll start liking it again!
ReplyDeleteYah, it's sad, sometimes I really just want to learn.
How come I was never invited to watch!!! ha
ReplyDeleteIt would be nice not to have a GPA to worry about.
