I am currently a senior in college. I feel like when I graduate within the next few months, I will be skilled in nothing. What was the point of college? I am afraid that I am qualified in nothing. Really afraid. I told my mom this. She asked me then why the hell did I major in art? I told her it felt right and for gods sake it is the only thing that I can do. And she said what about all the A’s you got in high school. I said what A’s? I can’t remember all the A’s.
Straight As
I remember all my “best friends” that were academically ten times smarter than me and ten times ditzy-er than me. I remember them and I wonder why parents think getting straight A’s is so great if you’re just another dumb bimbo that’s a disgrace to the female gender anyway? The question of why men don’t mind dating dumb girls seems to come up a lot—in the media, and in real life. However, I think the more pertinent question is why don’t parents mind having dumb daughters, as long as their getting straight A’s in school?
