+title: Thoughts from a cold autumn
+date: 2021-10-23
+
+Some thoughts that need to get out and written there. They might be turned into
+individual blog posts later, once I sort them out.
+
+## Educational system
+
+For a long time I have been excited about the next year of studies. I always
+thought that my new teachers and classmates would be excited as I was about:
+
+- learning new things,
+- sharing their skills,
+- improving their toolbox of culture and problem solving!
+
+> I was wrong. I am wrong. Educational system failed me, and I lost faith in
+> it.
+
+I lost faith in most of teachers. In fact, I expect a teacher to inspiring.
+But 99% of them are not.
+
+I lost faith in educational system. As a student, you are punished instead of
+being rewarded. You are being taught the same things over and over again,
+with the same boring methods.
+
+Please, tell me I am wrong.
+
+## Dealing with administrative services
+
+As a good citizen and young adult, I always fullfill my legal obligations in
+time. And yet, every step turns my mind to a weird state, mixing anger and
+frustration and despair:
+
+- I register through multiple online services.
+- I have to use multiple and different credentials for each of those.
+- They send verification codes through the postal service. POSTAL. SERVICE.
+- Once the mails are received (two weeks later), I have to wait two more weeks
+  for account verification.
+- For that specific declaration, they send another mail through postal service
+  ..
+- The paper has to be manually completed, scanned, then sent through an online
+  service.
+
+> This is one of my many experiences with french administration in less than
+> 6 months.
+
+In fact, almost every administration processes are burden:
+
+- They are slow and lack of documentations.
+- They ask your personal informations MULTIPLE times, even when they already
+  have them in their database.
+- It is tedious and slow to get support from an administrative employee.
+
+## Real life sucks
+
+People are hypocrytes. Most of them are the first ones to look down on you.
+Even close people might eventually ignore you. No matter what you do or how
+hard you try to accomplish anything meaningful.
