I'm Mad (A True Story) *ABC Assignment*

Xi'an is where I'm headed next month, but sadly I'm still stuck at school. Today, my econ teacher literally gave us the option to have homework or not. Guess what my class chose? Apparently getting an extra five points is critical to them doing well this quarter.But now my time is diminishing. Wasted. "Do you guys want homework?" "Yes, yes we do!" For some reason, the majority of the youth has given up hope on having a life outside of their education. Cool, you take 75 AP classes, that's great. Except for the fact that YOU SUCK. Money is time. Losing money is something I do not like (something no one should like). I am mad. Stop the madness. None of these fiends realize that some of us have other stuff going on in life. Or the fact that five points is pretty meaningless, and therefore a HUGE waste of time. Please reassure me that college will be better than this. Very many of you are assuming I'm lazy and will flunk out of college I'm sure. Just understand, though, that I hate wasting time and I see this as a waste of time. Underneath all of this anger, I'm a motivated person. Right now, I just want to achieve my goals without having to deal with all the roadblocks in the way. However, dealing with all the other non-important components is a big part of the journey. Karma will eventually work its mysterious powers in one way or another. Quests are never easy. Ziggy Stardust is the only person that would be able to soothe me at a moment like this.
