Awsome Thing 2day

[diaperwearntigger]

I can't spell to save my life but most of the time except for pm's I usually take the time to look up how to spell the words I am trying to type. I really don't know why I am so bad at spelling. I have an engineering degree so I am educated, guess I lucked out that you dont spell math.

The education thing:

I went to a public school and was in the top of my class. I am just naturally good at learning pretty much anything. When I went off to college I could tell I was behind on what I learned from what the other freshmen already knew, most of those came from private schools. So I do agree private schools tend to be ahead of public but I still excelled in college. If I had a choice between choosing private or public for myself or kids I probably would still go with public, I perfer that type of schooling experience. My fiancee even will agree with me on sending our future children to public school and she has experienced both in her school years.

I definitely want to teach in a public school, I love the challenge of the behavioral kids and those who have learning disabliities... I know I'm not suppose to have favorites, but I can't help it... they are my favorite kids..... I went to both a public and private school.....and now teaching in a public school I see the difference in a lot of ways....

As for, if and when we have children....they will either go to a private school or be homeschooled....and it has nothing to do with private school having a better education, it only has to do with the violence and problems in public schools today.... The things I have seen just in an elementary school.... I can't tell you how many first graders have been suspended this year alone... I figure by the time I have a kid, and they are old enough to go to school... it will only be worse.....unless of course its a pretty good school without much trouble...and not the inner city school that I work in now..... but I do love it!

You sounds like my mom tigger and she has been at it 30+ years with 1st graders so I think your future has a good out look. Your teaching for the right purpose not just for a pay check.

Earlier when I said I dont worry about spelling in pm. I didn't mean it as I talk in that textmessage talk I just dont take the time to go look up the word but I do usually use the complete word.

P.S Tigger: We havn't talked in a long time we need to fix that.

I've been to both public and private, and I'd have to say public did a bang up job of getting me ready for college. Of course, I went to Indian Hill (the place where all the kids do drugs in Traffic) so my experience is woefully atypical.

Wow reading this thread made me realize, that I think as far as how people type becomes addicting myself I remember in high school sometimes wanting to abbreviate things, I'm not the greatest speller in the world. I remember the teacher telling us he had someone, who submited a paper with LOL's on it. I think that the way things have come, people really do use LOL I can see on a text message wanting to keep it short, because you get more in that way. I remember for some reason writing a paper and putting Some1 instead of someone.. I felt so stupid, but because I was used to putting Some1 instead of the actual I actually wrote that in my paper. I didn't submit it though I caught it laughed and changed it.

Point is I really think people can end up becoming creatures of habits with the way things are written.

Can you imagine in a couple years from now teachers exepting that, because it will get added as vocabulary.

I say WOOT all the time, one day someone informed me that , that word would/will/ does now appear in the English Dictonairy (there's a hard word to spell)

Anyways, that's my rant

1-People are lazy

2-People are stupid

I'd rather see someone post whose stupid and does not know better than someone whose lazy. What's so goddamn hard about spelling supercalifragilisticexpealidocious?

Supercalifragilisticexpealidocious OR...

Sprcalfrglstcxpladshus?

After typing that I suddenly feel retarded.......
