Things i would like to do before i turn 20

1. Go backpacking in europe. Hitchhike via freight train, a nice old lady's car, group of hippies, sheep and the shepherd, truck and a bulldozer. 

2.  More travels. Embark on a spiritual prilgrimage shuttling between human civilisation and the wild. I'm not going to India, the City of Joy really isn't that inspirational. Nor am i going to the Great White North--Alaska---solely to be enlightened by some eighty year old chief. 

3. Find someone who thinks like me. Someone who really knows me. 

4. Shed my idealistic frame of mind. 

5. Keep my family safe. And look after myself properly.

6. Become financially independant. When you have $$$, you have the whole world in front of you. 

7. Help those who have helped me during my years of uncertainty and confusion, and who have guided me all along. 

8. Be a good person. 

fucking hate international

Its 11.30 and i still haven't completed the first goddman question of my hw. Its so fact-centered i couldn't bullshit, and i can't find any information. And i don't know what they mean by IMF cannot close the books due to failure to underwrite 90% of their stock market value, and that QOIUASD subsidised SNA 2.2% based on Article IV of the IMF Articles of Agreements 2002...and do i honestly care?

I would hate to be at Haileybury College.

English tutoring

I found this really good english tutor. He teaches at ivanhoe grammar and lives in lwr templstowe. It would be great if somebody could join me for tutoring. I think its really beneficial, because i could study with someone and share the cost at the same time. 

I'm starting soon, so give me a buzz or message me if you're interested.

This is all i have. I apologize for not taking that many <:)

education revolution

education is a very lucrative business. BETTER TEACHERS ARE NEEDED. Better teachers should get paid tens of thousands a year, not just their petty 60 grand/annum. My standards are pretty low, i just need a teacher who can explain, who doesn't randomly leave the class so one or two students have to teach the entire class, and most importantly to get us accelerate through the coursework.  

This is only for me, but these days the only good teachers around seem to be the men. I don't mind tangent lectures, because i can feel the sense of urgency in my teachers to push us(really, in Warren's class it's exciting as hell and one could easily faint under the atmosphere).  

I don't want teachers who flash their smiles at me, i need teachers to teach.

Teachers should have to sit the teaching bar. Dr Schnagl needs to inspect all the classes. Some teachers are not qualified. They need to leave, or teach a class that matches their ability. 

I'll leave these potential reforms to student with greater audacity. At the moment, i could only care for myself. Those of you who haven't even realised, or perhaps you have (you know who you are cuz you share THIS one particular class with me), if you want to do reasonably well you need to forget about the school coursework. Pay attention to it, but we really need to move forward. And this is entirely up to us, our teacher is utterly unreliable. 

Enough said. Now i need to look up the cuban missile crisis. 

Andy Roddick is the shit!

Best comedian on the court. He can send me on a laughing fit anyday. 

As for yesterday, i really do feel sorry for Federer---it was really cute though, he's like a weeping little boy. But then i won a bet, i always knew Nadal was going to kick his ass.

Anyway, have a laugh at Roddick.
