Every weekday I walk into my first class period exhausted from the previous night’s homework. For 55 minutes my teacher teaches, I take notes, and then the bell rings. I scribble down my homework, get up, and repeat. Seven times. Five days a week for the past six school years. One day after the next, I’m checking off the boxes like everyone else, with no sense of individuality. Is this learning? –Student Voices

Positively Purging-I welcome your feedbacks in the comments and your likes and passing the real life wisdom on to others as I embark on this new venture of “positively purging“, as I know each of these pieces represents something…
Well at least that’s what society says learning is! I guess. I’m so tired of school right now my eyes are crossing. What I’m noticing is I go hard the first four weeks and then I get drained around week six of eight. I’m so ready to quit but my spirit won’t allow me to. I have four more classes left to complete the degree so I just keep pressing but this traditional learning system needs some serious transformation. Hang in there!

Yes, the traditional learning system could use a serious transformation. Hang in there, the work will pay off, and you will be an amazing, registered nurse (RN) one day!

That’s the goal! I’m going to have to learn how to compartmentalize though. I carry others burdens.

My mother used to say, “Education gives you something to think about when you’re waiting on line.” In other words, you may not believe you’re learning anything but it is surprising how much will stick with you later in life. Keep powering through; you will eventually find the one or two subjects that enthrall you 🙂
