I saw in the news this afternoon while I was channel surfing (surfing is bitchin) that the standardized tests the FCAT and the SATs have been dumbed down. The reason? “To many students were failing our standardized tests, so we decided to make it easier on them” some moron explains.
I swear I would shoot myself in the head if I got even one wrong in my FCAT reading test. They asked questions lke “Sally was having an abnormally bad day. In this sentence what does the word abnormally mean? A. normal B. not normal C. cats D. I love goats.” It was obviously C. Duh!
By the eighth grade (or year for you non-Americans, meaning everyone but me), kids now only learned 5 words for each letter of the alphabet, with the exception of the letters N through Z, which they hadn’t gotten to yet. So when the school board asks little 12 year olds to describe their education, they had the choice of GOOD, APPLE, and CAT. Guess which one they said.
But seriously I guess the education is okay over here. I can’t go on talking too much garbage about the school systems here because they do get the job done; it’s just stupid kids that slow the system down a bit. If you have a great number of people in your country there is bound to be a lot of stupid ones. I do love America very much and I wouldn’t like to live anywhere else but it would be arrogant to say that some things don’t need changing.
(holy crap I wrote way to much about this)
PS: I got my hair spiked and dyed green and blue! It looks fecking sweet now!:-D

That's why I mentioned it. I was offered the job of trolley/shop floor monkey at Somerfield this morning. I start next week. Strangely I'm looking forward to it. :S
