"it's weird growing up being told you're just naturally smart and then being told it's a moral failing that you're getting bad grades when you stop being able to memorize stuff cause the complexity went up"

#girlbob.txt #past me was so real for this cause yeah it is weird #she lied tho and said it had no bearing on who i am 10 years later when i still deal with not knowing how to maintain focus and study #even when i really want yaaaaaaay.#the education system and perception of intelligence is weird for everyone tho #hard work is discredited regardless of if you do well or poorly. not getting things can mean you're a lost cause #being good at things means you don't need help or to be taught certain things like *how* to learn #and teaching these things is discouraged #due to all sorts of factors #it's a fucked place so shout out to all my friends who've had to spend their time learning and growing on their own ily all
