I love traveling and I learn so much more from it than I do in school. Lately I can't stand sitting in a classroom. Can't. Stand. All I want to do is go everywhere and be a sponge. I want to help, too. I don't think I'll ever be satisfied with a completely sedentary lifestyle.
The other day one of my professors told me I was not creative. That was pretty difficult to hear because it is one of the characteristics that I think I most strongly possess. I know he's wrong, but it was still demoralizing. Other people will doubt you, but you must never doubt yourself.
Gotta tell you that I feel the EXACT same way. Lately I cannot stand being in a classroom. I'm just so bored. I get so much more out of other experiences I've had on campus and I find myself thinking about and giving so much more time to them. I also feel like I just want to get out into the world and travel and see different people and places and actually experience something.
ReplyDeletePS: What the hell was that professor thinking?!?! I know I may not have seen you in a while, but even so I KNOW that you are creative!!! He totally did not know who he was talking about.
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to focus in class for me now! It's restlessness I guess. You're not alone in wanting to get out of the classroom. And the professor was kind of talking in terms of my performance (what I would call a distinct disinterest in the subject matter) in his class. It was depressing anyway though. Thank you for your reassurance, your opinion means much more than his anyway :)
