Man I wish there had been classes like that in the schools I went to.
As it was we learned almost no real life skills and I was bored most of the time.
High school was better, I could take classes on auto mechanics and TV repair and I loved it.
I never did understand the point in social studies class but we had to take it anyway. boring boring boring.
At least math, literature and science made sense. I could see how that might be handy stuff to know, but social studies! What chance was there that I'd run into a Roman gladiator in northern Alberta.
