EVERYBODY that I know tells me to go back and finish my degree but I don't know if I should. I took this semester off to save some money and focus on what I really want to study at university. I have come to the conclusion that my marks were never really great in university because I was not interested in it and I find it very difficult to learn from books and to memorize things for exams.
Since taking the semester off I got a really good paying government job that I love. I really enjoy what I do and I make more money than some people I know that have degrees. I can picture myself working for the government until I retire. So why should I go back to school? In a way I want to go back because I know a post-secondary education is important. In another way I think it will be a waste of time and money to go back since my grades were never great and I would have to give up my good job. What would you do and why?

This question is coming fresh off some anger I have... I am a substitute teacher who used to love her job. Lately the kids have seemed more and more mouthy, with absolutely no respect for authority. Parents are not teaching their kids how to accept "no" for an answer, and kids don't even understand the most basic acceptable behavior. It's ridiculous. I couldn't believe some of the comebacks and comments I got this morning, after asking the students to do the simplest, most obvious things! It's not the teacher's job to raise kids, parents... YOU NEED TO DO IT. I can't wait until I have my own class next year. Some of this behavior will be absolutely unacceptable to me... and I will call the parents on it. Can't do that as a sub.

Is there a name for the process of putting new words to an old song?

It's kind of like a spoof, but I feel like there is another name for this process when it involves rewriting lyrics specifically.

Anyone know if it has a special name?
