Day 33, lessons


Anomie - the personal feeling of a lack of social norms or the confusion that arises when those norms conflict.  Memorable from ‘O’ level Sociology for some reason.

Alienation - another concept memorable from the same class.

Imagine a 2 hour lesson where the teacher reads from a textbook, without pause for questions, while the class take notes.  No bloody wonder it’s those points that stood out.

Disaffection - the outcome of the above.

Rebellion - I wrote my notes one line at a time, skipping 3 lines, writing another line.  Then after reaching the bottom of the page go back to the top and continue on the next free line.  Etc.  Not exactly Ernesto "Che" Guevara.  May even still have the notes, with comments from the teacher.

Not sure what grade I got, probably unclassified.
