One Thing I Would Change


If I could change anyone thing it would have to be school

as important and nescessary it is, it's rather cruel.

Why should I have to spend 12 years learning about things that won't apply to me

why not just ask children what they want to be and get them training immediately.

We could strive to be specialists in fields of whatever choosing

that is only if we study that field from the beginning, there would be no losing

of precious time devoted to becoming anything we would want to

no more propoganda or standerdized tests, internships would be the best

apprenticeships for every profession teaching us how to be better than the rest

but instead we must waste 12 years devoted to generalized education

unable to chase our dreams being forced to study  useless information

Information that might never apply to our carreers in the future

id rather everyone chase their dream by being able to pursue it after the grade Kinder
