Now that i have your attention, Hello everybody.., I'm Jac! "the cat"Sabertooth with something to think about.....HHmmm?
Have you ever wondered why when you were attending school, or if you are in school have you ever scratched your head and asked yourself why is it that the people who are dumber then a hole in the ground with a brick in it, are considered cool, while the people who are capable of forming full sentences, and who will most likely will be hireing the so called cool people,are called "dorks, nerds, geeks, and are made fun of and tormented. It has never made any sense to me, it should be the other way around it should be cool to pursue( for you cool people that means chase..)knowledge, it should.... make you a person to be admired, and copied, raising your hand in class because you know the answer should bring a quiet awe to the class room, not loud laughter, and riddicule. As i said before in a previous posting(shattered,cracked,and Pop) we are soooooo messed up as a nation, how do we expect to develope more einstien's, and steven hawkins when the stars of the classroom can't tell you their name with out a 10 second pause of just saying uuummm,... Come on! if you dont know what your name is, or you can't recite your name within two seconds after being asked you need to be put in the same cage with the chimp that knows sign language maybe it can teach something, because GOD knows the schools can't.
When i was in school, I was involved in both sports and science, i was consider a jock, and a nerd i was....( get ready).. A JERK, both jock and nerd i wasn't the only one their were others, (but we don't care about them this is all about me).
Their shouldn't be this divide in our educational system, look at college's, the atlethic dept. gets more money and support then the departments that actually prepare students, for entry into the real world. I know that its easy for someone to sit at a laptop ( yeah, i have a laptop, top of the line to, never be afraid or ashamed to spend money as long as it gets you closer to your goal..) As i was saying, pointing out or complaining about the state of any social, or cultural problem is kind of tricky, and at times may get you in hotwater,(Which is O.K. with me, because every mourning i get up, I walk off a cliff,"Which is going to be the topic of a post at a later time..) But despite the problems you may encounter when commenting on social, or cultural issues you should still give your opinion(Skrew those who don't like it..).
Back to the topic no where in this country should their ever be a time, or place where intelligence should be riddiculed, or tormented, nor should atlhetic ability, and self inflicted stupidity be placed at the center of the school ground social structure. Intelligence requires creativity, a willingness to search for answers (The root of a scientific mind), and a desire to learn something new, everyone should be willing to do this, try as hard as you must and keep trying, and learning.
This is the basic core of human existance"creativity"to know the unknown, not the lazy mindedness of "I'm not gonna raise my hand i might get embarrassed", or "look at that brainiac over there, he thinks he knows everything, lets get him after class,"this is the wrong way for students to be thinking, if their thinking this("I know they are, it may have been a million years ago but i was a student once":). America needs to,.. if its going to continue its public school system("I don't think it should, it needs to changed") needs to institute a policy were students are praised, and rewarded for their Intellect, and their willingness to speak up and participate ( For the cool kids that means to be a part of the action,) in the classroom. I know some of you are probably saying they already do that, some schools do, but not to the extent that I'm talking about, I'm talking about making this the centerpiece a national educational curriculum and if the teachers, and the teachers union dont like it get rid of them their part of the problem anyway, and if the parents aren't happy with it they should be held accountable because education starts at home.
The popularity pagents that take place in the schools are going to always be there, thats not an issue. But at least let the pagents be based on something more relevant then who can grunt the loudest, or who has the shortest skirt, or most make up on....("Here's some facebook lingo, oh wait a minute" For the cool kids relevant means <Important>...now facebook lingo-OMG this is a very long post SMH ..lol) I just did not feel right typing that... excuse me AAAAAHHHH!!!!! , I'm shaking really bad right now, I'm ending this post now, and I'm going to lay down...omg its just 11am smh AAAAHHH! FACEBOOK LINGO, get out of my head! omg,omg,omg,smh,smh,smh,lol,lol,lol,lmfao,lmfao, make it stop, aaaaahhhhh!!!- Jac!
