I realized my school was retarded today.

I somehow have managed to schedule classes I should have taken last semester, and who's information overlaps with classes I've already taken, and classes I'm taking now. It's like I'm hearing the same exact thing over and over again, in every class, and for the second semester.
On top of all of that, I already know like 70 percent of the material in the entire program.
I wish I could just take a massive test and get my degree instantly instead of having to nod out to this monotonous, droning groundhog's semester.

I really wish this only applied to upper-crust managerial jobs, but sadly even entry level graduates are subjected to the adage "it's not what you know, it's who you know".

At this point I'm going to grad school because I have nothing better to do when I graduate.

Today, a co-worker of mine quite seriously told me that the book of Revelation in the bible was talking about humans being killed by technology.

I think he was confusing it with Terminator 2.

I actually intended my post to be encouraging but based on the replies I guess it came off as cynical. I'm just saying people shouldn't get too discouraged by a lack of response when they respond to ads. Get involved in professional associations in your field before you graduate, go to job fairs, meet people: that's really the best way to land a job.

No, no. I clearly remember the part in Revelation when a shape-changing robot travels back in time to kill John Connor.

I just found out my classes begin tomorrow and not next week. However, I can't say I'm sad. It's the only worthwhile film-making project of the year, and I thought I won't be participating in it this year.
