   Wouldn’t make that such behaviour acceptable right now? I mean, if you need to change the standard, it is ok right now, is it not?^^

   Perhaps he mean kilometers per hour. That is always my problem as an European. I read 65 miles in a comic or a book and think, that is really slow. Then remember to convert it to kilometers per hour. Perhaps this is the case here also?

   I am on Plan C. And as far as I can say yet, I am pretty happy with plan C. It worked great so far.

   If you are trying to learn more math, I might have a tip for you. While learning, write it down as words. Like five plus five equals ten. I had a few students with dyscalculia and it helped most of them.

   Basil as well. I love smelling basil. Or mint, or lovage.

   Not only this. It is the same in every country. I am from Germany and we obviously have the same problem with German and English lit over here.^^

   I did enjoy Moby Dick at the time, but I didn’t have to read it. I am not American so we had different books. In 7th or 8th grade we had to read a book about a kid who lost his keys and went to the mall and started stealing for some reason and went further down from there. It was supposed to be this big social criticism. None of us could see it though. It was just boring and pretty stupid.

   In twelth grade we read the German classic Kabale und Liebe (intrigue and love) from Schiller. Until today I think the whole thing is just dumb, but teachers and our board of education love it.

   One problem I have with books in Schools is, they are boring. I am an avid reader, have been since I was twelve. But I didn’t enjoy most of the books I had to read in school. Out of around 40 books, I can remember 3 I liked back then and around 10 I liked as an adult. The rest. I think they are boring rubish even today. Schools should look for books kids want to read. Not some dusty classics. And they should refrain from interpreting them to death. That just sucks all the fun out of reading.

    I probably would do the same thing, if a stranger waved at me and said hello to be fair. It’s what turned me away from Walmart. And what forced Walmart out of Germany. Well, one of the things.
