I honestly thought that I had escaped the people overly obsessed with their studies.
The IB syndrome, that has ended almost completely, included facebook posts about loads of homework, shitty jokes about some idea of a typical student and information on how many allnighters are planned. Allnighters, seriously? One girl had the nerve to brag about how much work she has to do and how she is going to stay up all night and at fucking 3am she went to bed. At this point it doesn't matter whether she finished her homework essays or not, she basically lied just to fit in this symbolic bullshit that was the International Baccalaureate students. It was all propelled by the teachers. "Yeah, you are all going to think in English in a few months" <- that alone was unbearable to hear. If the people claim to think in English, I expect them to construct a decent opinion in English, which some of them couldn't do sometimes. And I'm not even mentioning the vocabulary levels and overall ratio of languages used.
And all the fucking references to the fact that "I AM SPECIAL BECAUSE I PAY FOR SECONDARY EDUCATION. I HAVE A SUBJECT CALLED THEORY OF KNOWLEDGE AND IT IS CONFUSING HAHAHA LAUGH WITH ME. NO LIFE, #HASHTAGS, OH AND I AM BETTER BECAUSE THIS IS NOT WHAT OTHERS GET." I think I misunderstood the whole "making the world a better place" idea. Or maybe there wasn't such an idea in the program.
Holy shit, and now, putting behind the terrible attempts at humor I had to scroll through on facebook, I get people who don't seem to post anything besides BFM related issues. Am I lonely because I don't belong in the group who apparently understands the fucking joke, or are they lonely because they have nothing else to talk about?
