You Do Not Learn This At School

Eleven Rules That Schools Don't Teach
By Charles Skyes

Rule 1: Life is not fair. Get used to it.
Rule 2: The world won't care about your self-esteem. The world will expect you to accomplish something before you feel good about yourself.
Rule 3: You will not make $40,000 a year right out of high school.
Rule 4: If you think your teacher is tough, wait until you get a boss.
Rule 5: Flipping burgers is not beneath your dignity. Your parents had a different name for burger
flipping: they called it opportunity.
Rule 6: If you mess up, it's not your parents' fault, so don't whine about your mistakes. Learn from them.
Rule 7: Before you were born, your parents weren't as boring as they are now. They got that way from
paying your bills, cleaning your clothes, and listening to you talk about how cool you are. So, before
you save the rainforest from the parasites of your parents' generation, try cleaning the closet in
your room.
Rule 8: Your school may have done away with winners and losers, but life has not. In some schools
they have abolished failing grades; they'll give as many times as you want to get the right answer.
This of course bears no resemblance to anything in real life.
Rule 9: Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off, and very few employers are
interested in helping you find yourself. Do that in your own time.
Rule 10: Television is not real life. In real life, people actually have to leave the coffee shop and go
to jobs.
Rule 11: Be nice to nerds. Chances are you'll end up working for one.

During lunch today, my group (Anna, Kathy, Maria and Vivian) were thinking of ideas of what we could dress up as for our graduation breakfast. There were many disagreements until I suggested Rugrats. Only one person rejected this idea but too bad ! Haha, sorry Kathy, it was 4 against 1 afterall.

Something hilarious Kathy said today;
"I know ! Let's go as Lilo & Stitch ... except .. which one's Lilo and which one's Stitch?" AHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Sarah and I walked all the way to Fairfield Station today after school ! With a minute to spare before the bus came to the stop that's opposite the station, oh yeah. :)
