I've thought about all of that before. Teach children about jobs from day one of school, then ask them what they want to do at time for high school. I personally wouldn't prefer that. School could also be just for teaching about jobs and learning basic skills everyone needs (reading, writing, adding, subtracting, etc.), then college is where you learn specialized skills for the job you want. When it's like that, that might mean fewer grades to go through.

I am thinking the current kindergarten and elementary school is like introduction job stage, or role play occupation stage.
Then in Middle/High school, start to hands on try and see whether their brain/body can fill the occupation.
Then in University, it is mostly specific research AND training.

I see the current system like this:
Elementary is where you learn survival skills (again, like basic math, reading…) and etiquette.
Middle school emphasizes that one day you will grow up and get a job, and they teach you what you'll have to do.
High school assumes you're going to college next and teaches you what to expect.

I do not need calculus to become an intrepreter~ XD lol.

Current system is very general. too generic.

Indeed, it is. I also think there need to be more options for kids like me who learn better alone as opposed to sitting in class with several other students.

That I agree. I believe that different people have different learning method.
Though I do think social is important, as you can't live alone.

Yes, you can't, but I don't think forced socializing is right. If we really want the best from our school system, we should accomodate for the students' needs so they can learn more and better.

mmmm yogurt

Some people are so shy that force could be the only way. *shruggs*
I am one. XD lol. I just don't like to communicate/take the first step to talk to people. Unless there is a problem/thing need to be solve/done.

I'm shy like that, too. In one of my classes, I'm expected to talk in class discussion. It's such a bother.

I felt pressure yes, it may not be the best, but lol, it get me to talk. haha~

I don't have much of anything to say unless it's about astrology, aura reading, a type of kinesis, something else weird like that, or K-pop. My interests.

Well still, there IS something to talk. XD
Kinesis? What is that?

I am better off with not face to face communication. Like now. XD

Kinesis is a suffix for several words. It means you control it with your mind. The most common one is telekinesis, moving things with your mind. There are a ton, though.
Cryokinesis is controlling cold.
Pyrokinesis is heat/fire.
Electrokinesis for electricity.
Atmokinesis is (le gasp) the weather.
Photokinesis is light.
I THINK there is a such thing as sonokinesis, which would be sound.

There are many, and my list probably barely scratches the surface. They say it's all possible if you believe it is and keep practicing.

Wow~ That is very VERY interesting!
Telekinesis and telepathy, are they similar?

Telepathy is sending someone a message straight from your mind to theirs, so I guess they are similar since that's like telekinesis with thoughts. :D

Cryokinesis and pyrokinesis remind me of Gill from Street Fighter 3.

It is cool, because you see it in movies and games all the time and now people are saying it can actually be done. Teleportation and time travel, too! They aren't kineses, but there are some claims that we can do it.

And how could I forget, biokinesis! Control over your own body in ways like changing eye color, the shape of a feature, probably making marks/blemishes disappear…

Wish I had biokinesis.

Amanene... someone actually manage to do that? O__O

Practice, Aco, practice. And belief. That's how you do it. ;D It could take a long while, though.
How are you faring this event? Are your tokens stacking up faster than you can keep up with?

@Xuv: Right? The Internet is a vast place~

Can Pan join the conversation here too?

Haven't been on much due to working on a few school related works but I have managed to spend 50 tokens or so on 2 event items with me now possessing 35 tokens.

Pan is trying to be as active as she can too during the weekend because its unlikely she can spend much time on Mene during the weekdays...

Yes, you can. :3

I've been very busy with school, but now it's Saturday. I had 187 rollover currency to start with, so that has helped a lot with how busy I was this week, on top of the daily storms keeping me off the computer. Finally they stopped and I could sleep at night. Storms shouldn't happen after dark. ><
