HW 39 - First School Assignment

Part A:

Questions:
1)Why do teachers teach us stuff that we may not need in our future lives? Why not teach us something we will use in our lives?
2)Is school a way for our parents to relax without us? Teachers being our babysitters?
3)Why our we as people graded by our grades and not by our potential to do things?

Experiences:
1)Seeing couples eating each others face in the halls
2)Seeing people listening to their ipod in class while the teacher is teaching
3)People changing their attitude from when the teacher is there until the principal walks in (higher power, hierarchy??)

Interesting:
1)People being the most absurd in the hallways while classes are in session
2)People cursing teachers out and the teachers just letting it happen
3)People smoking inside of school bathrooms and getting caught

Part B:
What's the most awful thing about school is that your sitting in class starring off into space listening to the teacher babble for about close to an hour. It's the most boring part of class. The classes are so long and your sitting in the most uncomfortable seats ever, for example like in chemistry class your sitting on those stools that hurt our ass and back for about an hour; slouching over to write on the lab benches while the teachers have a comfortable seat in class. Also the disciplines in school is crazy your basically have no freedom what so ever to do mostly anything, you only have like 50 minutes of free time to yourself which is only during lunch and after that its back to this crazy jail, locked up for another 110 minutes(1 hour and 50 minutes).
The consequences in school are sometimes outrageous for the simple fact because if you get in trouble by a teacher and you want to explain to the principal that the teacher didn't see the other student or whatever the case maybe, the principal will never believe you and go only by what the teachers say. It somewhat like a court house but an unlawful one of course. Or if you get into a fight at school with a girl lets say in an argument or whatnot the principal will always go for the girls side just like the police would in a situation like that. In closing school's consequences are the most unfair shit ever and somewhat worse than the police law but not that extreme. Lets hope that it never gets that extreme...
