Proud

[sweetkristina]

I realized something yesterday that I never thought about. I am very proud of my two younger sisters. I never thought the time would come where I could actually say that, but they are growing up and finally starting to get somewhere. The one, unfortunately, even has me jealous. Regardless, here is an update on my sisters

I think that you got a different sort of opportunity with being home schooled! Isn't it a proven fact that children who are home schooled are really much better academically than children who go to a public school?

I personally would love the opportunity to home school Kyle, but I am afraid that I am not smart enough to do that, like when it would come to calc I couldn't do it. . .

Supposedly they are smarter, but not in my case. If my mother had schooled me instead of having me do the stupid correspondence school crap I did, then I probably would have learned more than I did. But because she went that route, I got my books, took the tests by finding the answers in the book and sent them in. I didn't study, I didn't read the books, I didn't learn a thing. But when I was actually taught by my mom I learned more. Like, Scott and I were playing that trivia game at the bars and a question came up that I knew the answer for because my mom had made me do a report on the person. Stuff like that I remember, but my actual high school stuff, that was a joke!

Damn, I wish that you could get a degree like that!

What do you think? Will a place give you a degree if you just pay them for that piece of paper? I hope so, then I can tell everyone that I have bachelors degree in something nonexistant, so I can tell them about it and they can shake their heads at me and pretend like they know what I am talking about...

Kristina, you have inspired me!
