One person answered me in another posting just
because they are promoted does not mean they passed. Why promote them? It is time to stop making excuses for kids with LD and try to find
a way to teach the same high standards to them
but present the high standards in a different way.
I am not talking about mentally retarded or slow learners,but kids with moderated learning disabilities. In my time I gave up on school because school gave up on me.There was no
help in my time. I fell through the cracks and
society still holds me accountable for something
I had no control over. Do you all think I am uneducable and beyond help. Why is it my fault?
I use to be told it was my fault for not trying harder?

Hi, I am a junior who is looking for an internship in either business (preferrably marketing) or pyschology or journalism for the summer of 2008. I live in Fremont, California and am open to anything. I want to do this internship in order to go to Uc Berkeley, so if there is any intership connected to the school that would be even better. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

Okay the ACT is designed to test our knownledge for College right? they have about 60 questions for the reading part, about 30 for the math & history & about 60 or more for the math test, but why is it timed! we get ONE minute for each math problem, we read about boring stuff that doesnt interest us like...red trees, and metal, if the test is so important why do they time us, we're not suppose to feel pressured or try to hurry to get as many done as possible, i believe this is the most important test, i mean its one of the most important ways to get in college. does anybod know a reason for this, i was not able to get the last 3 the first time i took it, thank God i got into college anyway. no i'm not being a brat i have just always wondered, why make it timed when its a very important test

Today I thought I saw stars, but then realized it was dust. I said "I'm ok I thought I was seeing stars but I was seeing dust" to my friend. I feel like that could be an inspertional quote. Like when you see famous people you think your seeing stars, people living a dream, but it's really not all that great. What are your thoughts on that quote? Is it a good quote or am I just thinking too much?
