School’s Cool

School is not what most say that it is.
It’s not about writing papers and taking tests.

It’s also not necessarily about the parties
or the extra-curricular activities.

It’s about growing into one’s self
and becoming.

It’s starts with an interest.
That interest is pursued.
This pursuit changes a person;
it changes them into who they were meant to become.

If I have an interest in nursing,
I study nursing,
I become a nurse.

If I have an interest in teaching
and helping others learn and grow despite themselves,
I study education,
and I become a teacher.

If I have an interest in art
and helping others break free from themselves,
I take classes, and I myself learn to draw without boundary.
I become an artist.

I am, and I become what I studied to the world.
