I LOVED Pre Med Biology! And I would have aced it to if it wasn't for the teacher! She was only interested in the cliques! She told me all my work wasn't really necessary!!!  I almost flunked high school because they didn't treat kids back then for depression. They did not even want to acknowledge it!

If they had of, I'd have been a surgeon!  

I also loved Home economics! Made my own denim jacket in high school! Cool

I would say Science, History, House design./decor principles, but I took an LOT of Secretary and bookeeping classes.., Supervisory/psycology and Small Business courses also in college. I like new innvoative ideas. Then after my Near-death expereince, I went an lot into metaphysics trying to understand it, as it happened at a time in my life it wasn't readily written about like it is now...it left me very much aware of the Spritual realm also. There's not to much people can't enlightment me on that I'm not already aware of even if  I don't understand "how it works". My history includes cultural studies as well as genealogy...as well as the past in general. Of course cooking is also an passion, though I think there' s not to much new coming into it as there is the way of growing things in the future...if planet earth does annilate herself by someone. I've also taken special child care classes though the public schools refuse to acknowledge the private schools...beyond persecution tatics for the children involved in my estimation. Kind of like tyring to get the jungle tribesmen to understand there's an world out there beside thier own. I have an second cousin that is an PDH college teacher here in Oregon, an family member that was an coach for Ohio University, and past relative that's in "whose who" of founding the first international correspondence course in Education, and to many "teachers' to begin to count them all on my fingers through the years...second big family occupation seems to been the minsitry, follwoed by miliary service..and side line occupations include running trucking businesss and farming, I have two uncles whose combined tracts of land has them farming some over 2,000 acres...yes they have million dollar equiptment to do it with, though one uncle sent his kid into compter programming  while in college to help out the farming as well...they both own/operate small trucking businesses on the side...probably retired by now though and my cousins are doing it all.  Strangely I've repeatedly been asked by others to become an"nurse" for soem reason...though we have three generations of them also.

OMG! How about those dried up old graham crackers that tasted like they'd been sitting on the radiator for three years, or the sandwiches that had peanut butter piled an inch thick but with no jam, so that you couldn't talk for hours after you ate it. LOL!!!

Oh yeah, history was my favorite subject, especially British history! Laughing

LOL!! I do remember those!!! Anyone remember the push up pop ice cream?

I remember in World Civ class we did a unit on Indian culture class system.  We each had to pick out a class and be it for the day! Everyone wanted to be an Untouchable because we didn't have to go to class for the whole day and hide when the bell rang!! It was the best way to learn!

I think Krissy really wanted to be an Untouchable so she could get her hands on the confiscated illicit booze; there seemed a bit of confusion of who the Untouchables were.

Still, my marks in Recess were second to none.
