Technical Difficulties

Ah! For over a week my blog had been messed up. It wouldn't let me type anything and it was very sad and unfortunate. The is one of the many reasons that I haven't written in ages, and I apologize. It still isn't working correctly because I can't enter and am in "HTML" mode, whatever that means. Uhhg so that is why the layout of this post is not ideal. Here is an entry that I wrote about a week ago that I couldn't post: What If... What if we went to class simply to learn what we should know and what we need to know. What if we actually remembered everything that we learned and utilized it in our lives and in our careers. What if there were no quizzes and no tests and no homework and no deadlines and no gradebook. What if instead of frantically trying to copy down an entire lesson via PowerPoint, or spending an entire weekend shut up in our room doing homework, We were simply required to sit there in class, taking it all in, writing down only the things that would be useful for us to know at some point in the future. Well, then any one and everyone could get a degree in whatever their heart desired. And we'd have inexperienced and unprepared doctors, teachers, lawyers, buisness owners. It would be nice though, if learning worked that way. What if we didn't have to work a 9-5 job every weekday of our lives? What if instead we could spend our time exploring and traveling and reading and writing and cooking and cleaning and crafting and working out and simply living life. Well, then the garbage wouldn't consistently be picked up and the mail wouldn't consistently be delivered and projects would go uncompleted. and products would go unmade. and the economy would be all messed. If would be nice though, if we didn't have to spend the majority of our lives working. That's my attempt at being poetic. So there it is, in all its glory.
