Student Induced Ignorance

The life of a student is one sheltered from the real woes of these economic times. Most of us just live off student loans and if we work it is already rewarded minimal wage. The constant routine of studying, testing, and working buffers most students. Although the student's desire is to be fully aware of the worlds politics, intellectual and religious movements, and debate much over these topics they are still detached from the full effects. I would have to say I absolutely fall into this category. It is strange though because I am neither going to school or employed..... Odd. 

I've been out of school for a year and I'm just living off of the free food and shelter of my parents. Collecting and income from random jobs. During the day, to maintain my student status, I attempt to study and read in preparation for graduate school, but I often find myself hiking, shopping, and taking naps. You might ask yourself how lazy is this girl, but nay I say I am just relishing in my "Student Induced Ignorance". The realities of life will hit soon (and by that I mean after I finish living off of my student loans and studying for the next two years at ASU), but when it comes I know it will hit hard. Hardness in the form of eighty-thousand dollars of student loans and a Masters in an industry which the general public deems useless and is over saturated with scholars. With this understood I sweep reality aside and enjoy my last few months of complete detachment from responsibility. So if you ever need to go on a day date, go hiking, debate art or climate change, or take a mid week vacation please notify me I'm always available. Just please provide free food and lodging.
