Oh, and watching the real estate daily numbers slowly deflate as well.

Woosh!

I would say the only truly useless high school math was permutations and combinations. I have never used that in any part of my life, but have used everything from trigonometry, to calculus, to statistics to algebra on a somewhat regular basis in law. (not so regularly on the calculus but definitely the others).

All the people I knew who were 100% averagers, IB curved or otherwise, are doing much better in life than I am.

Almost time for CP's annual jailbait thread, eh?

Way to use your head there.

But to be frank I know of three and one was actually over 100% due to bonus marks and extra work credit.

1. is a cashier at 48 years old
2. killed themself
3. had a nervous breakdown at U of Manitoba and is a pig farmer after dropping out.

So you've been following your high school classmates' achievements for 30 years now, eh? Too bad you didn't get 100%. Maybe you could be a cashier or a pig farmer instead of a stalker.

I dunno, girls like her are usually the ones that get the wildest when you get a little bit of liquor in them. All it takes is for her friends to drag her to one house party, and a few Smirnoff Ices and one guitar player from a local college later...
