True Life Skills

Somehow I’m just not tuning into the idea that in just over three weeks from now, I’ll never have to worry about chemistry ever again in my live. I mean, it’s a great thought, but I’ve just not been feeling so happy these last few days. Maybe I’m just stressed. I daresay I’ll be feeling very, very happy once my six finals are done. On the Friday after everyone’s done writing we’re planning on going out and just doing random fun stuff all day. Hopefully that includes burning my copious amount of notes.

We wrote the stupidest English prep exam today. I don’t and have never seen the point in testing reading comprehension. I’d say that a huge percentage of important, successful people in this world would not be able to comprehend that Robin poem of Emily Dickinson’s. However, we are nonetheless expected to comprehend it now. Sigh. I wonder if there will ever be a time when school will teach true life skills without being utterly retarded like CALM.
