>>24515I was homeschooled from grade 6 through 12. Not much of a story. It was my mother's decision which the local Board of Education hated but were powerless to stop. We have very liberal laws when it comes to parents schooling their own children. File some paperwork, then bring the kids in to test once or twice a year. Just to prove they can read and such. We could.

Finally had a run after skipping a few weeks because of exams+China. My knee hurt a bit but I'm not feeling it today so I think the lesson is "Don't crank up the thing to 11 for the last 5 minutes" and then my leg will be fine.
Yeah, run longer, not faster and everything will be fine. Would probably help with stamina too.
Dad's building a shed. He plans on it to have a smaller part that is essentially a "workshop" of sorts. We talked about it and signed our own version of the Treaty of Tordesillas agreeing that we each get half of the future shelves. Good stuff.
Honestly I feel like my trip to China did a lot to help mend (build rather I think) my relationship with him.
Sister got back from her trip to Italy. She was visiting a friend. Got me two packs of coffee, which is nice.
I mean, I'm surprised, but I got her stuff from China so it's not like this is not reciprocal. (On my part. Usually I'm the asshole who forgets shit like this.)
Been entering books into my catalogue. Leftovers from before the trip and then all the stuff I got. I forgot to enter these cute little pocket volumes I got for 10-12 yuan each. Daodejing you can fit in your palm and so on. So I had to sit down for a third time.
Still haven't gotten to entering the Shiji and the Hanshu into my catalogue.
I need to hack together a study still. And then I can focus on what's important: Translating obscure, insanely mid shit from the Ming period.

>>24519>how do you feel your education stands compared to people who went to school?It was terrible. Since I didn't have a high school diploma or GED, I needed placement tests to assess my knowledge prior to attending college. Had to teach myself decimals and fractions in the weeks beforehand. Needed remedial algebra but scored well in reading and comprehension. Still have gaps in my knowledge of history.
>How was it not having actual classmates? I liked it, but to be honest it wasn't good for my social development. I'm a natural introvert and only branch out when pushed.

It's infuriating how much American education sucks, but Germany might be even worse.
Diversity is strength, must give degrees to illiterate 'disadvantaged' children, must augment each and every curriculum with 'gender lectures'. Suggestion for a chapter in a textbook if anyone is reading along: 'gender in higher order logic or how sexist smelly CS-nerd shitlords named a proof assistant "isabelle" in the eighties.'). No.24537

>>24537Same in Germany. 20 year olds can't do long division, they can't use logarithms, they can't find the roots of polynomials, they don't know trigonometry, they can't apply gauss's method, they can't do simple proofs by induction. The education system is overwhelmed by dumb children.
many of them Merkel-ian rocket scientists Too many of these dumb children are then put into grammar schools. All throughout the system, these pupils take up teacher's time by being loud, stupid and obnoxious and working their influence on the other children. Boots from certain cultures are particularly difficult for female teachers, because no real man takes instructions from a woman who is not a senior female relative, much less from a non-believer woman.
The victim hierarchy has been established, and much to the chagrin of old-school feminists, brown people rank above white women, so nothing can be done about it.But luckily, we do have political solutions. Just give everyone a university degree in something or other, no matter if they only have the skills of an underdeveloped fourth grader.
We'll just give all of those snowflakes office jobs, they will then receive mediocre wages for instructing AI to read and write meaningless emails. We can always let cheaper workers from countries with real educational systems do the real work. Only a nazi would see any problems with this. And we didn't discuss with Nazis, we lock them up! Or shoot them, if necessary! To protect democracy!

Yesterday I sat the yearly German C1 mock exam. I did well in hearing, reading and speaking. Got 63% in writing, which is a passing grade, but still not recommended for a real exam.
Afterwards the lecturer invited me outside so he could smoke and hear about my China trip. I asked him "You're not going to smoke your usual cigarettes now, are you?" and he didn't understand and said "Of course I'm gonna smoke these", after which I took out three packs I got for him from China, plus some funny cigarette-pipe made of stone and bone.
He was quite surprised I bothered to get him anything, let alone three packs of cigarettes, but in the end was happy.
We spent some time talking, until we were literally told to come inside because they are closing the courtyard for the evening. I thought I had missed the last train home like in some anime.
I went home and ate some instant yakisoba and then went to bed with a cup of milk and had insane nightmares about getting murdered by an entity called "Kafka Knight". I don't think there is anything to it.
I also arranged a date for next Tuesday with a girl from college. I mean, that's nice. I guess. I find it a bit strange though that she is from the exact same region my mother is. I wonder if this will work out or not.
I want it to.
The job thing hasn't materialised. Not mad, just a bit irritated because I'm running out of my savings with the China trip and the book orders I placed for the project dwindling what little I have left.
But there is still the two publications I have coming in. Maybe in September. Idk.

Or they 'buy' a house, and it's on a mortgage and it's not even a real house, but a terraced house.
Or they get gf and she's a 6/10 who in uni fucked the chads for fun and the nerds in exchange for help with her assignments, and they do everything to keep her and even marry her, and then they pay for her horse's heart surgery, only to then get divorce-raped.
How can these people look in the mirror and pretend they are not utter shite? Everything they do is literally coping hard, what pieces of shit.
And when they do get a job, it's some position at a Medicare company, and they take like 4 years to find something better, and they think it's better, but it's not a real company, just some other medicine German shit company with like 500 employees.

Interestingly enough, just yesterday I also thought about losing stuff by whatever means and insurance and such, and realized that I don't really care about my THINGS, but really more about the data - I have over two decades of thoughts, scribbles, work on my hard drives. Of course I have backups and such, but it's not daily ones, so some loss would always occurr if it didn't happen right after the last backup. Although, come to think of it, I also know some THINGS that have served me well for quite some time that are not produced anymore, so any replacement would most likely be of inferior quality.
