Facebook and School

I, like 800 million other people, am on Facebook. Now, average user, says Facebook's statistics site, has 130 friends! Personally, I only have 61 friends, so someone has my share as well. No one can be real friends with 130 people. And when people post stuff like " Urgh that just ruined my day," I have no idea what ruined your day, and, chances are, neither do your 128 other friends. 

Anyway, today I have biology midterms. With tenth graders! What fun. Which brings up an interesting subject. My school is so mediocre that there is no honors science. In ninth grade, you are supposed to take Earth Science, which is what I've been doing since kindergarten. So I decided to take biology with tenth graders. Hey, maybe I should start new one-liners: My school is so mediocre....that 49 people made high honors, and and another 30 made honors in ninth grade. There are only 120 students in the ninth grade! That means that about 65% of students made honors or high honors. High honors means that a student got all A's, honors that a student got no more than 3 B's, and nothing lower than a B. Doesn't it seem wrong that half the class got nearly perfect grades? Perfect grades should be reserved for people that are genuinely smart or genuinely hardworking. But at my school, EVERYONE is told that they are FABULOUS. Poor kids. When they enter the real world, they will be soooo disappointed.

Well, I should stop blogging and start studying, so bye for now.
