I can now say that I have helped someone older than me with homework. Given where I am right now, that's not too difficult. Still, its a first. Hooray.
Funny quote from my brother:
Bro: "I want to sue (Name deleted for privacy.)!"
Mom: "Why? (Alleged crime deleted for privacy.)?"
Bro: "Not for that. For general existence."
Ladies and gentlemen, my brother.
Today I saw a student attempt to attach a suction cup to his teacher's head. The amazing part is that the teacher sat there looking as confused as I was. Everyday I say that this country is not going to freak me out any longer, and it goes and pulls a stunt like this.
During math, teacher sets us work and goes out to attend to administrative stuff. I do the work (duh) but most of the class is discussing relationships. And not smart discussions either. More like 'when are you gonna get married?' Whoop-de-doo. "Hey guys screw integration let's talk about our non-existent love lives!"
After extended observations, I have come to a few conclusions as to why the school system here is, to be frank, slower than back home. Why do I feel the need to do this? I'm bored, that's why.
- Time spent during class READING THE TEXTBOOK OUT LOUD. I am in a class of 16-year-olds. I wonder what people MY age are doing. *shudders*
- Time spent during class DOING WHAT SHOULD BE HOMEWORK. Self-explanatory
- In lower years, the persistent usage of the phrase 'I can't' will get you out of most things. Not to bash the teachers. Its the kid's fault for believing such nonsense.
- NO HOMEWORK GIVEN. Unlike what you may think, this is NOT a good thing. When your parents don't let you play PS2 on weekdays, homework is one of the best things to relieve boredom. 'Cuz cable sucks. And there are only so many hours you can stay asleep.
There we go. My day.
