I'm counting down to the big 1-0-0, if you couldn't tell. Back to school yesterday, even though my flu has gone from okay to worse. School is so stressful, and this week it's time to pick next year's classes. Also, my school is full of germs. I'm not a germ freak, but there comes a point when you cannot place that many teenagers in the same space for extended periods of time, and expect germs not to prosper. I'm an advocate of shorter weeks but more intense classes. Pres. Obama wants to increase our days, but it fails to fix the issues that occur in the lower classes, i.e. distractions, degree, and lack of interest. Anyway, My school has just begun a month - excluding weekends - of classes. This will be devastating to all our health.
