Hello Again!

This is a new era at our blog. First, all keys will be posted here, after shown in class. Second, classes will be PREVIOUSLY here, so you know what will happen and may kind of get ready.

No homework shall be put here, as school admin is finally taking care of that. Projects and compositions may be referred to here, but I wouldn´t exactly count on that. For chat, talk and other stuff, check my personal blog.

Enjoy!

Isn´t it?

This is THE girl!

Congratas to 18 year old Francine Grotto Arida, from Mauá, SP, the first at Fuvest! She was a public school student who basically got 939,6 points out of a THOUSAND!! Saying she is great is not enough to the girl! She is super! :-D

Read more here - it´s in portuguese - and spread the news! I wonder if something like this can make other girls be sure that there´s more in life than dreaming of being nothing more than a pretty face. Maybe a girl will believe more in herself instead of believing the best that could ever happen to her is finding a partner to pay her bills. Or maybe that maths and engineering are not only for boys?

Maybe some girl when reading this, will see that intelligence is also cool - and needs no botox , starvation or constant surgery. Maybe someone will look at her books and think that they are the promise to a better and bright future and studying is much better than dieting like crazy, dancing bizarrely or straightening her hair so much and so often you can be bald before you´re 40.

Be Francine! Be you! Be a smart, wonderful girl!
