Ho hum, had a colossal debate today.
A dispute over the relevance of some of the subjects on offer; Classics being wedged right into the centre of it.
People were churning out a myriad of reasons why they hated the subject and how it was of no use to them in their future life.
Well, I couldn't disagree more.
First of all, I believe in education for education's sake. And secondly if they hate it so much then why take it a second year?
Well, I guess it doesn't help when this year's teacher takes a whole lesson to explain what Virgil managed to elucidate perfectly in one sentence.
Some people.
Or is it just New Zealanders?
Living abroad and attending an international school I never witnessed such blatant ignorance that I have observed in my 5 months back in Wellington.
Hmm, this would make for an interesting column!
Anyway, I'm sick of the impetuous criticism from others about my "omg BIG words"; go read a dictionary New Zealand [not talking about it on a whole].

That was my two cents for today.
P.S: I do really love you, New Zealand. Heh.
