i just remembered a dream... from last night?
i ran into the 1 social work major guy that graduated '09...
he/i/we (my friend and i) were downtown and he came out of somewhere and we followed him to a 2nd story apartment.
while there, i announced i/we were crashing his upcoming wedding.
(he is engaged, and last time i checked fbook, set to wed in april)
(whoah! that's soon)
he didn't mind and was all for it. (like i knew he would be, he's cool like that)
and then we left or i woke up or both...
and that's the dream i just remembered.

while random touring, there was a meloer (snozberries, i think) talking about taking the cahsee (CA high school exit exam). I g-spotted her about it and instantly felt old.

wtf, mate?!!?!

haha... "i remember when..." <--not the best way to start a g spot if you want to feel young. oy vey... what's weirder, my class ('05) was the first class in ca to take it and have it be required, and then someone changed their mind... my younger brother took it, i think, but it wasn't required of his year for graduation.

the cahsee, just another botched attempt at having graduating seniors prepared for the real world. . . I think, if i remember correctly, most people couldn't pass it on their first try and had to take it multiple times. it was algebra (which is taught in middle school) and english (which is taught always)...

sad really, the schools can't/don't/won't teach students what they need to know.
students don't/won't care about learning for the sake of knowing.
and everyone blames everyone for the suckass school system/s.

go figure.
