I realized why it is that I want to go back to school so bad. Its because I dont feel intellectually challenged any more. Living in an academic world with people of comparable intellect, I was never overburdened with stupid comments or idiocy. But now, released into the 'real world' where there is no filter from this, I find myself surrounded by stupidity. I feel myself become stupider with every day I dont pick up a Math text book. My brain is wasting away, thanks to the general public. Sure, money is great, but is it worth it? I dont think so. I'd rather go back to school, be poor, but be intellectually stimulated. I want to be around people who understand my discourses, and can reason and ration with some semblance of intellect. If you're one of those people, send me a message. We should chat.
UPDATE (July 2011): I'm back in school! Have been for 8 months now. And although it is nice to converse with 'people of comparable intellect', I now remember how nice it was to have things like 'free time' or 'time to go out for a drink' or 'time to sleep' or 'time to do anything really'. Oh well.
