Today is September 12th, 13 days until my birthday. I will be turning 16 and I plan on getting some kind of a part-time job. After I accomplish this I have been talking to some people about getting my private pilot’s license. I would love to fly a plane. Even just a small biplane.
Most my time is spent at school. This year I am starting the first semester with Geometry, Computer App.’s II, Civics, and Theatre Tech. Even as I write this I am sitting at the computer at school in second block. We’re covering postulates and theorems in geometry this week. It is very damn difficult to remember all of thee things they expect you to learn and remember for the rest of your life.
My brother has the idea that school should not extend past the 3rd grade. He is under the belief that a child’s father is supposed to teach it about the ways of life and family. A child would stay at home and be taught by his family morals and religion as well as how to get along with other people. Then at the age of seven the child would start school which would be completed once they learned the basics of math, history , writing and reading. They would graduate at 11 or 12 and have the choice of continueing their education to become a professional, or go home, start to learn a trade and start in the workforce at an age of about 14 or 15. It’s an idea if you ask me.
Other than that my day has been rather O.K. I’m just Chillin.
PEACE,
JOSEPH
