The A.D.D. Generation

[blustocking]

Wait, I do have something to say...but I'm worn out. Let's just say that I wish our society wasn't so obsessed with "entertainment". I wish instead of our generational motto being, "Entertain me" it were something more along the lines of "Teach me." We have all of this great technology now, these wonderful means of information retrieval and communication and it's primarily used to distract us from our "boring" lives.

"Such a rush to do nothing at all
Such a fuss to do nothing at all
Such a rush to do nothing at all
Such a rush to get nowhere at all
Such a fuss to do nothing at all
Such a rush.

And it's just like you said,
It's just like you said.

Such a rush to do nothing at all.
Such a fuss to get nowhere at all.

Such a fuss X2

And it's just like you said.
It's just like you said.

Just slow down please,
Just slow down,
Just slow down please,
Just slow down.

Such a rush X15 (w/ increasing intensity)

Look at all the people going after money.
Far too many people looking for their money.
Everybody's out there, trying to get money.
Why can't you just tell me,
Try to get money, rush.

Such a rush.
They all rush.
Such a rush X7"

--"Such A Rush", Coldplay

...better if you hear it.

I'm beginning to think my brain can only hold so much.

I knew that, but I had COMPLETELY forgotten it. I can remember a long string of numbers fairly easily, but yet the things I really care about are constantly slipping from my mind. I worry about what I'll remember when I'm not in school. I'm not that good at challenging myself sometimes. Heheh, I can sometimes be just as lazy about learning as the people I was bitching about. At least I recognize it and am trying to change it. Foo. I hate forgetting. *downs a bottle of Ginko Biloba, if only for a placebo effect*

Art is fer bums with no future bow-duh! Learnin' is fer crazies! Werds?! Yew want me ta REEEEAD?!

This initial post was inspired by Harry Potter, it's crazy-obsessed followers, and the fact that the title had to be dumbed down for A-mur-i-ka.

I was going to go out tonight, but I don't feel very social...and I'm more poor than I thought.
