Oh, I also feel that life is absurd. You eat. You shower. You sleep. Then you wake up the next day and do it all over again. For the rest of your life. How interesting...
And the most ridiculous thing of all I think, is getting a tertiary education. Not the part of getting an education, education is always important, but the process of it all. You spend like what, 50 - 60 thousand dollars for a diploma/degree. For some, maybe even more than that. To work at a job that pays 1500 - 2000 dollars a month. And you spend the next 5 - 6 years paying off the huge debt you've amassed from studying. By the time you know it, you're in your early thirties and only just beginning to properly 'earn' some money for yourself. Your twenties already gone and you feel old. Heck, I already feel old at 20.
Of course, there are opportunities along the way, job promotion, business propositions, and you might get lucky, but the overall 'plan' just seems too... ridiculous.
Like what my lecturer once told me, you go to school, to study, to go to college, to get a degree, to get a job, then go to university, to get a Master's/PhD, to get a better paying job, to realize that you spent your entire life in this 'race'. Well, not those words exactly because it'd be ironic for him to say something like.
I don't know, I probably just have a naive perspective after all.
