post-ministerial writing test

-------------------------------------

in quebec they have this little ridiculous requirement that you must undergo a mind numbing experience of process and bureaucracy in order to churn out new graduates and prepare the funding reports for the ministere de l'education i feel so silly writing this thing i mean what if you really don't know how to write and why in the hell in the first place are they testing potential university graduates instead of secondary or even CEGEP students perhaps i should tell them that i've been writing dubiously cohesive papers and that in fact i've got more experience than mr. excercise-studies or better yet perhaps i should be taking a cardio workout in order to graduate to mellow out of the baseline and yet perhaps i should be preparing a reaction in a chemistry lab to finish my degree it all seems that it relates back to knowing how we all communicate the best to each other and de facto that means writing a test which does nothing but blur our access to the rest of our sensory synaesthetic experience i want to be on a stage and act out max weber's theoretical framework around rationalism and roots of capitalism emerging by means of the reformation of the catholic church and the introduction of the spirit of capitalsim and the protestant ethic i'm sure i would make a good martin luther it's ridiculous that i can't attempt to play my interpretation of the new labour market theories and relations of industrial workers to their employer on my cello with lots of pizzicatto suffixed with beautiful harmonious vibrato tones i swear its not at all fair with the self resignation that everyone must perceive and understand max weber through the use of a technology which denies so vehemently the faculties which have always lead to creative perception and often intrigue and critique
