theory of concepts...

The institute where I'm at, is an institute of concepts and theories. After thinking about it, I've decided that it's not really the tutors' fault for asking those kind of questions. After all, she's just doing her job. Instead, I am disgusted by the institute for mandating what is allowed to be taught.

The emphasis on theories and concepts irk me.

That might be too mild.

The emphasis makes me want to vomit. It makes me want to vomit and burn the vomit. Yes, it seems like I cannot express myself. But it's alright. Apparently, they don't seem concern in teaching me that. They emphasize on theories and concepts.

Concepts and theories are not real. Most aren't anyway. Most theories and concepts are a thought. A description of a thought on how things work. How really does that make us better at what we are going to do? I really don't know, maybe to the institution, all these work in their theoretical world. AND since it does work in their world of theories, it must definitely work in the world we are getting sent into. Yes... that must be it.

So, if you delight in reading and crediting people for the concepts and theories that have been written about, you will fit in at my institute. It is literally FOR you. If you are practical, they would pat you on the back and appreciate your effort. But they wouldn't believe you, because your practicality isn't backed up by a, quote "dead white man's name" end quote.

The reason given for needing to know these concepts is because we are practitioners of these concepts and theories. Since when did I sign up to be a practitioner of your theories and concepts? I certainly don't remember that. If I did, I'm sure the urge to vomit and burn something would have stopped me. I'm not denying that these concepts and theories might one day come in handy in dealing with the client, BUT please, if everything could be solved by reading up on a theory, the world wouldn't be in the state it is right now. The world is definitely not an idealistic fly-ridden island. So wake up from your fantasy and actually do something about it.

I want to vomit onto the idealistic theories and burn them. So if you happen to be an airy, half-hung in the air theory, don't come near me. Especially if you belong to that fly-infested island that thinks to highly of itself.

P.S.
If you happen to belong to an institute and you get offended by this, it only means 2 things.
Either you are paranoid and think I'm talking about you. Or, you are over-sensitive and think I'm talking about you.
