Last weeks thread here

Welcome to this week’s casual kōrero thread!

This post will be pinned in this community so you can always find it, and will stay for about a week until replaced by the next one.

It’s for talking about anything that might not justify a full post. For example:

  • Something interesting that happened to you
  • Something humourous that happened to you
  • Something frustrating that happened to you
  • A quick question
  • A request for recommendations
  • Pictures of your pet
  • A picture of a cloud that kind of looks like an elephant
  • Anything else, there are no rules (except the rule)

So how’s it going?

Uni student (among other things).

High school senior are now off on exams, and uni doesn't start until around end Feb. Semester one is further away than Semester one lasts.

Our education is failing, students aren't getting involved, and we are finding it harder to focus post covid. So let's put our students on ln a 4 month holiday during high unemployment rates, rising costs of living and a burning, resource emptying world. Great for mental health.
