Hello folks!
Coming here after couple days. Sorry, but my internet was crapy these days.
Well, I actually don't have a lot to say. My easter break is being kinda lame. Wednesday was fun, I went out to dinner with my friends and then one of them sleptover my house and we basically played Guitar hero world tour and laugh. But yesterday, I didn't do anything really cool. I just went to my uncle's house and slept during Twilight. Let me explain! It was in portuguese and GOSH, I hate movies that are not in their original language, and I was super tired.
Today is holy friday (?) Tradition says you can't eat meat like cow or pork. I cannot see any sense in this, but I keep following it, I don't know why, I just do it.
I must say I'm frustrated right now. Friday night, no classes tomorrow morning and I'm here, with nothing to do, booo-red. If I were in the US, this time I would be out with my friends like we always did; Gosh, I miss that, more than anything. I miss having no worries about school. I could do everything I wanted at anytime surrounded by people that I loved. Here life equals prison. School keeps us always occupied, they rule our life, they even chose who our friends would be by alphabetical order. They don't encourage people to dream, to imagine, to create. They teach us how to solve equations, how to obey stringent rules, how to make it through college, but they forget to teach us how to solve problems, how to understand our emotions, handle harsh situations, how to be tolerant about the other's fault, to admit you're wrong and how to apoligize. They just treat us like robots, they call us numbers instead of our names, they don't give us options, opportunity to complain. They're just a system that will remain the same until someone gets enough courage to face them.
And in Brazil, that never happens. People over here are conformed about reality. They don't believe in changes anymore. A true politician with good intetions will be killed if he tries to do the right thing because the other ones are only there to steal the public money. Scadals are something normal here nowadays. They involve everyone, from the drug dealer, to the policeman, to the governor, the judge, the president. It's something we can see, but we don't complain about it. That makes me feel so uncapable, and that's actually what I really am. I wish I could change everything wrong, but I'm one in the crowd...and I can't even scream because I would get a sore throat. Well, I dream about the day I will have some influence and in that I can change the world, or at least my city.
My question tonight is: How can they bet on us, this new generation, to give a better future to this world, while they are giving us the worst kind of examples, an incomplete education?
And that's how I will finish my post.
a song, of course.
"Life inside the music box ain't easy
The mallets hit, the gears are always turning
And everyone inside the mechanism
Is yearning
To get out
And sing another melody completely
So different from the one they're always singing
I close my eyes and think that I have found me
But then I feel mortality surround me
I want to sing another melody
So different from the one I always sing..."
and that's how I feel.
Cheers everyone o/
