And Tom Sawyer, and just about every other book ever required by a school. I read most of them years before I ever had to read some of them for class.

The secret to the money question is easy, and can be summed up in two adages:
"A fool and his money are soon parted" and
"Easy come easy go".


If you look for a relation between the story and current day lottery winners, you'll see that quite often those who get "free money" do not live happily ever after, as they are unable to handle the change in lifestyle. If you come from a very poor background, and are suddenly rich, you have NO IDEA how to act, or what is proper to spend that money on.

No im in High school. If you want to know my teacher i could easily explain her. Shes a freeloader. Shes in her 60's, literally crazy (not kidding), taught us comma and capitalization rules in an honor course, wont answer questions, only replies, "you should have listened when i said that," or "take better notes." Any meetings shes supposed to attend she blows off. Is absent at least once a week, usually mondays. Her grandson name is Ty and he was in "Yours mine and ours" Yes the movie, he came to our school and he is a spoiled brat for only being 7. Over half the people in our class, including me, have thought of ways to "get rid" of her. Currently our favorite is putting acid on her from our science lab. So yeah. Im not her biggest fan.

That's what we did to a spanish teacher who only spoke little english.

Write an essay about how Jim losing his money is just like some kid who is spoiled by his insane grandmother who teaches. When she brings him to school to show off how cool he is for being in a movie, everyone sees him for the brat he is. Some one post that info in a forum and writes an essay on these things. Thus the kid finds out that no one likes him again, just like before he was in the movie.

Oh ubah thats great. I probably could and she wouldnt notice. All she does is glance at the paper, circle a couple random things, look at the name and grade it by that. One paper takes her 20 seconds. Just my luck though she decides shes going to retire the year right after me.
