Things I've learned from 10 1/2 years of school:

  • Being called a "nerd" or "geek" is a good thing (except in movies)
  • Feeling like a teacher's pet, while it may not be fun, is useful
  • Only when math is involved does how well you understand what you're doing really count
  • Work > knowledge ← (Sad, I know. : ( )
  • Counselors are usually repetitive
  • The future will suck, unless I get a job and money (See: brainwashing)
  • Rebelling against teachers doesn't work, because sadly, it only hurts yourself
  • Do not mimic your teacher, because your first grade buddies will not save you from being in time out while they learn about shapes without you
  • Teachers have lower expectations for students than they will readily admit
  • Memory devices work
  • The teachers you adore while you are in their class are (usually) not as enthusiastic to see you a year later as you would wish
  • Color by numbers was bomb
  • The school only cares about dress code 1/15th of the time
_____Yea for going back to school tomorrow, eh? Indeed(ish)!
