This month ... it's all about the top 30 favorite assignments (see rules below) -- and that means I'm going into the archives and going way way way back to duotang folders in a bin in storage, most of which that have not even been OPENED for the last three decades.
Next up -- a return to the SEE programs folder for round two, and if you didn't remember from the last time, these were special offsite Secondary Enrichment Experiences that the "peculiar" kids got to attend. ("Peculiar" is more of a British word ... in our school, "gifted" was used instead.) Basically, the same guidance counselors who once signed me out of an ill-gotten suspension (see story in previous countdown) could also sign us out of *regular* school, so that we could travel over to the next county to do an in-depth dive into whether China's communism was any better than our capitalism -- a type of lesson our little high schools simply couldn't provide.
RULES FOR THIS TOP 30 LIST: These are MY favorite assignments. They may also be YOUR favorite assignments -- but they may not be, especially since it's quite conceivable that you have NO favorite assignments. My grades, though, were pretty good ... so, you know ... hence this particular countdown. No negativity or other comments about hoarding will be permitted (after all -- hoarders wouldn't know where [most] of their things are and they wouldn't be so [mostly] organized ... so SHUT YOUR MOUTH about that). The poster is not responsible for any reappearance of any repressed memories you might have about anything that is included in this series. Note: due to the fewer number of days in February, two posts of this kind will show up on Sundays.
