Only the rich have the luxury of being relevant The world as we know is only of the people who generate enough value for society. Take, for example, the news; all the major news being covered only concerns the West or European countries, and in some cases, if a meme comes from that nation, But no mention of the raging wars going on in Northern Africa, the independence bid for Somaliland, meltdown of the economy in Vietnam. These stories are seldom covered but a guy casually winning Silver in shooting seems more important. Don't get me wrong, everyone is entitled to what they like but we as a society would be filled with ignorance no matter how much we enjoy it, and with ignorance comes the burden of Polarizing opinion. Thus coming back to my point of being relevant in the modern world you need to provide some kind of value to others, be it entertainment or be it monetary.
Day 1
We grow up thinking about going to college when we grow up. So, we kind
of have certain expectations for ourselves when we start going to college. I
was no different. Throughout my school life I felt the miseries are about to
end, just wait till I go to college, everything would be easy, No studies, No
rush to complete assignments, No backlog of topics. Who could have told life was
going to kick me in the nuts?
Today as I get my first assignment I think, how can I be so wrong.
College is nothing like what I thought it would be. Bunch of classes and a huge
pile of backlog.
In some ways I think school was better, at least I could get what my teachers
were trying to teach me. But now what is being taught in the class is like
complete Arabic to me, totally different language. This has lead me to think am
I that dull or is just the topic that are too hard. But whatever it is it sure
as hell not for me.
Everyone is telling me it is because of the pandemic that has disrupted
our lives and my not understanding the topics is the fault of online classes.
Maybe it is or maybe it is not but one thing is for sure the next four years of
my life is going to very eventful.
For those of you who read my first blog, Thank You.
