Why do I go to school?

For real, who invented school? Who thought it will be good idea make youngsters compete each other in the scale of 'how good or bad are you in this?' Either school is a hell on earth or I am just tired, but then again both could be true. At least I am tired as hell because of school.

Few weeks ago I honestly began to think about me and school. I had always been and still am good at school but something has changed. Instead of wanting to be good at I wish I could do actually something that means something. Like I don't wanna study vectors in maths and velocity in physics since that doesn't mean shit to me. Sure those are some nice to know infos about life around you but do they really matter? Does it help world that I know how to count something with vectors? Does it mean anything?

Something inside me realised that the school I have chosen is not really the thing I wanted but since I have to study only for 3 years in total it isn't that bad. Then again when I stop to think about it, it kills me inside. Why do I bother to do this when I could be doing something that actually means something. I could work or make an impact to others. But no I am stuck in the bench of my school reading how Columbus "found" America. 

Why has our society been building like this? Why everyone needs to be educated so well? I know what good education prevents but you can reach those good things via something else as well. To prevent racism you don't need maths but understanding of cultures. Learning languages teaches you also cultures and it makes it easier for everyone to accept others. However not everyone is good at learning languages. For me that has been pretty easy and that might be one reason why I am so understanding at times. But some people just can't do it, maybe you can't do it, then what? Something else has to teach people to be accepting and that can be achieved my various routes. Public school is not the only way to teach manners to people.  

I should stop before this becomes too harsh and radical as a second post. It's just that I am getting a bit fed up from the ways this society I live in works. Something is just off about it and I don't like it. Maybe I should just let it go like Elsa, or I could be the whiny kid like Anna. Or find a balance between those two options.   


Well to bit brighter things. I have been practicing arts lately and I am soooooo happy of the results. I am not perfect or near it but I have achieved some goals I have had lately. My digital and traditional art styles are improving and I am happy about the improvement. 


 So I only have this one anatomy sketch but I am happy with it. Like it's not perfect but it has a decent flow to it. It is also a major improvement from my older anatomies when it came to semi-realism. Of course I make a lot of variants in the body types that I draw, sometimes more natural, sometimes more cartoony but this piece here is really good if you ask me.

I guess this is for today, see you later alligator!
