My Modern Problems

What i am going to address in this post is personal opinion, it may not even be rational or logical. There are of course arguements against what i have to say. These are my rants. I could only pick a few for time and space sake. There are of course a plethora of topics but i will only be touching recent ones.

1.
MoPro. This class is required when i see no reason it should be. There are plenty of other classes that i could take and learn how to write a collegiate (spelling?) paper. Every other friday we have an issue discussion on a current topic. I am forced to take two terms out of my last year of high school, terms i could use for classes i would like to take and would possibly relate to my post-high school interests in order to talk about the news. The news which is avalable all the time on the computer and the television. I am wastewing my time learning about the news. I should be able to choose to learn what i want from the news, not vote on a topic and be forced to do research on something that is only relevent for a certain time in that class. Currently we are learning about econimics. When my high school offers several econimcs classes as options, such as micro and macro, it does not matter. Because we are forced to learn them any way. If i was even slightly remotely interested in economics then i should be able to CHOOSE to learn about it. Modern Problems are all about disscusion. It is completely opinionated, i beleive life in general has tought me that there are many differing opinions and solutions for subjects, not MoPro. My last test had me label whether ideas are deomocrat or republican. I have no beleif in politics, but i am forced to learn about the views of different polital parties in the u.s. Does this sound suspicious even the slightest to anyone else? I am forced to learn the views of political parties. The only thing i can remember from that unit is that on some sort graph communism falls in the lower left quadrant. Yeah helpful information for later in life, really it is. If i needed another social studies credit than why could i not just take some other class? History of u.s military? anything? I do not even care about the paper, i'll write the paper in my free time and just turn it in but to sit there day after day to spend the first 20 minutes of class talking about this news? Count me out. And of course talking about politics and econimics (micro and macro by the way). Are there not like 70 clubs and classes for people who care about that? I could be taking another literature class, or writing class. I wanted to take marine biology. I can't. Because of Modern Problems taking up space in my schedual. Maybe i would have found my true calling in marine bilogy, give it a try before i head off to college. But no, i am sitting in a class as we discuss what we will be discussing on our next friday issue discussion. I'll write you your part one through four but please don't make me sit through another discussion on health care.

Girls. Leggings were never, and i do mean never, meant to replace pants. Leggings are not pants. And i cannot really express myself so let me emphasize, LEGGINGS. ARE. NOT. PANTS. They are much like tights. Skin tight and meant to be worn under something. So all you girls wearing regular old shirts with basically a thicker form of tights, please, just stop. Get a pair of skin tight pants if you truly, really want to show off what the shape of your bottom half would look like without real clothes distorting the natural shape.
(DISCLAIMER: jeggings, jean-leggings, are a different story, though descretion is advised)

One-uppers its your turn. No i do not care if your day was worse or if you stayed up 2 more hours than me and got less sleep. I was not telling you about my not-so-splended day so you could rebutle with an even-more-not-so-splended story. If i ask how your day was, then tell me. And if you are trying to one-up a story about something good? well that is just flat out rude. Be happy for the person, don't make them feel like their experience was less than yours. I mean really.

There are of course many other things i could post on here. But i feel like some of them may be too mean and too specific of people, which i would not want to personaly upset, especialy on a school assignment over the internet. Alas this brings me to the conclusion of my post. maybe i will post other rants (in spare time as apposed to assigned). Until next time. Merry meet and merry meet again (HOS refence =)
