Big and Little Problems

           Today we had our Big's and Little's reunion at school. What that is is that all the Big's get together with the new kid that comes to our school. That's why they are called little's. When I was new I was a little. Today was my first time being a Big and my only time. Sadly to say my little didn't show up, so lucky me was bored helping out the teacher and things. Well needless to say I think more schools should have a program like this. It is actually a lot of fun. The program includes fieldtrips that only participating members can be a part of. That alone I think is great.

45 Notecards and A Thesis

My school is pretty awesome but I have to admit they make us do lots of pointless busy work. I mean we started a research paper in the first week of school and we havent even started the paper yet in the third week of school because we had to do our research and write it on notecards. What is worst is we have to use MLA format because it is required. All this really is is busy work. Well hopefuly someone puts a thinking cap on and says "Hey what we are doing to these kids is not helping them in any way!" That's called wishful thinking folks and that's all for today.
