*sigh*

 

That's sad. And I know that probably in my country too, we share a similar situation to that of U.S. freshmen.

Now that I think of it, I hardly ever write anymore. That is, with a pen or a pencil. The only times I do is when I have to sign (like the professor's register), or when I label a freshly burned disc. Scary. Have I forgotten how to write? I'll have to check.

One thing I'm sure of, is that I can't do mental calculus anymore. I can't do even the simplest math operation, that is, I try but it takes me a while and sometimes I get the wrong result. I blame the fact that we were allowed to use calculators at school. This prompted everybody to make even the stupidest addition on that thing, and now I can't add shit. Or maybe it's the laziness, who knows...??
