He's Like A Detuned Radio

It's been a fun and interesting long weekend. I love having a free weekend off with nothing to do except being with the people that I want to be with. Orthodox Easter rocks, I recommend converting today. But before I get to that, this has bothering me for the last couple of days:

The meme that states that as students in university we are here to learn how to learn. What a load of bullshit. As an engineering student, my responsibility isn't to learn how to learn, it's to learn how to keep our water safe, or build buildings or whatever else you may be doing. Sitting in Mass Transport again today, I realised no job is ever going to make me remember critical thinking skills that I learned in class, but, God forbid I actually end up with a job that relates to this, I better know what the Slattery equation is and how to use it. Learning to learn is for Arts students who don't learn anything else in school and have no real world use.

Yes. I am feeling extra pretentious and condescending today.

Now why do I feel this way? Possibly because right now, I just don't care.

My weekend in song via The Cure:

I’ve waited hours for this
I’ve made myself so sick
I wish I’d stayed asleep today
I never thought that this day would end
I never thought that tonight could ever be
This close to me

You
Soft and only
You
Lost and lonely
You
Strange as angels
Dancing in the deepest oceans
Twisting in the water
You’re just like a dream

Then curl up by the fire
And sleep for awhile
It’s the grooviest thing
It’s the perfect dream

It’s never enough
It’s never enough
It’s never enough
It’s never enough
It’s never, it’s never enough

Songs that in the past that didn't resonate at all now send chills down my spine. But at least they were good songs. Out of everything that I may become, I'm not going to end up lame.
