Freewrite Day 546 School House

in #esteem6 years ago

We moved a lot when I was growing up and I went to 16 schools before graduating from High School at the last one. I only went there for four months and did not bother to attend the graduation ceremony.

For some reason the ceremony was in the next Fall for that school and I was long gone by then anyway. My mom was still there and wanted me to come back for it, but I could not think of anything I would less like to make an effort for.

Sometimes we moved and I did not change schools. Sometimes I changed schools when we did not move. I learned some topics a few times in different places and I never learned other things, since I was not there when they were taught. The whole thing was very confusing.

Earth Science was one thing I learned three times, and luckily I liked it. I took it again for my Accounting School science elective and aced that class.

Later in college English class, I read Shakespeare for the first time. That seems like an odd thing to miss, but I had never read any of it before. My professor told me he often had students who had not understood Shakespeare, but that I was the first who had never even read it.

I have to say, I did not feel that I missed out one bit after the parts I did read in College. I like things plain and simple and Shakespeare is anything but.

Another thing I missed was Greek and Roman myths. @bxlphabet loved those when he got to them in school and taught me some of them as he was growing up.

As for the school houses themselves, I don’t remember much. I can see the doors and grounds of some of them, but not much in the interiors. That’s probably because I was running off at the time lol.

My brother is the same as me, having very foggy memories of school days. My mom said he once told her a story of a school but it was not in the right place where we were living at the time. “I don’t know what’s wrong with you two kids!” Hahahaha! I love you mom. You did the best you could.

My post is for the #freewrite daily challenge by @mariannewest. Freewrite is a great way to post on steemit when you do not think you have the time, or talent, or anything to say. It’s a great way to start regular posting on steemit. I know you can do this too! Here is Marianne’s freewrite prompt post for today. Give it a try and surprise yourself.

How is your journey to better health going?

Is your fitness equipment out handy? Are you on a "diet?" Soon we will be in Bathing Suit Season. Are you ready?

I lost "Half My Size" eight years ago by using natural methods. No tricks, just doing a bit better every day. I started on October 10 one year, and did not give up. Four years later, on October 5th, there I was - thin and healthy for the first time in my life. You can do it too!

This is Sharon @fitinfun. I am posting:

  • Healthy Food Ideas on @fitinfunfood

  • Motivation Minnow Tips and Everything Else on @fitinfun

  • @bxlphabet is posting Southern California, steemmonsters and dtube videos.

Please follow along or contact me directly if you would like some individual help with weight loss and health. Anyone can do this if I did.

Thanks for sharing @fitinfun. You moved around a lot during school which gave you more experiences but hard to meet friends.

16 schools is way too much for me. How on earth could that be 🤔 .
