blog post 2: education By: Sam Geer

Brain in a Jar

My education has been extraordinarily messy. The simple fact is that out of the 12 grades I have passed through only about 50% of the time I was actually enrolled in a school. The rest of the time was spent homeschooling, messing around with and on computers or doing absolutely nothing. To anyone who knows me, this will probably explain some things. Like the fact I am Completely incompetent in nearly any social situations. Fortunately, I have zero “friends”, unless you count family, then I have one friend, my mom. Sounds like fun right? I should also mention that the time that I was in school was largely spent in the principal's office. Not because I was violent or something, it was mostly caused by the other kids thinking it was funny to frame me for stupid crap. Calling name, not vulgarities mind you, I would call people stupid, jerk, moron, idiot, but because I was an outsider they would “tell on me” the teacher would send me to the office, the principal would tell me not to call names and the cycle would repeat. That was basically my entire schooling experience, the teacher would look away, kids would be mean, the teacher would turn back around, I would call them stupid, “but they said…”, “don't care”, office, next day, teacher would look away… That is how I learned that “Justice” is just a matter of perspective.
