Adventures with Pookie: Failing The Easiest Class In The World

"No, life cannot be understood flat on a page. It has to be lived; a person has to get out of his head, has to fall in love, has to memorize poems, has to jump off bridges into rivers, has to stand in an empty desert and whisper sonnets under his breath... We get one story, you and I, and one story alone. God has established the elements, the setting and the climax and resolution. It would be a crime not to venture out, wouldn't it?"

"Teacher? When am I ever going to use cursive in my life?"

"Never. Unless you want to become a teacher, in which case you have to learn it just to teach your students how to do it."

And that is how I will end up failing my class--because I don't know how to write in cursive (or read it either)
