"Addition"
(Disclaimer: This entry is based solely on the writer's thoughts, reflections and frustrations and has no intention of defaming any parties mentioned in this entry, directly or indirectly.)I forgot to add something. I am so so so so so so so so against this sentence. Read my "Education - freedom" entry.
"You didn't study up to university just to become a housewife and hold a part-time job."
Sorry, but I just thought that education was supposed to give us freedom. If I want to be a housewife and hold a part-time job I suppose it is against the law? Absurdity. Fine! If you are so against it, then give me some time and when I start work I will pay society back the money which funded my education. And THEN I will go back to being a housewife and hold a part-time job.
I don't know if I will end up being housewife and hold a part-time job, but then I just feel so cheated that the society and the government did not tell us this part of our unspoken agreement when I first stepped onto the path of education.
That's all. It isn't a very big deal to a lot of people, but it is to me.
I always enjoyed education even though I grumbled a lot about it. I liked learning about new things. I thought education was about that ; enjoying what you are learning. I thought it was the passing down of knowledge from one generation to next.
I thought wrong.
Oh yar, I am supposed to pay back society, so I guess I will work for a few years to pay back whatever it is I owe the economy and THEN quit and do my thing.
Ah, I feel better now after letting it out, but I'm still irritated by this fact.
Please remember my very short disclaimer before you decide to complain or take a lawsuit against me.
