One of the most difficult things about working in this type of school with these types of students is that they are incredibly unmotivated and as such, incredibly lazy. This is too hard. This is impossible. I don't care - I give up. Do you expect us to work magic? We're not like you. Sometimes, it's difficult for me to tell whether or not I really am being unreasonable or if my expectations are simply too high, and perhaps seemingly impossible to meet. Or if they are achieveable, but these students simply do not have enough drive to try. It's very different from those crazies who immersed themselves into four years of architorture and sleepless nights. These kids feel that doing school work is an option - because they don't care for the repercussions of not doing it. So what if I fail? I don't need this. Part of me is tempted to believe that architecture simply isn't for these kids - they'll never have the will enough to do all this field, and many others, entails. Nelson, being a surgeon will require you to be work with your hands. Then fine! I don't want to be a surgeon.

It's brokenness on so many levels.
