ok…what the hell…looking at some random profile from a friend of a friend etc…well, they had one of those stupid “heritage” survey things posted…and listed theirs as “sweetish/cherokee”

…..

WHAT THE FUCK??  Sweetish??  you know, i looked around it, and i really don’t see where there should be some weird joke, or clever misspelling or something…i HONESTLY think they don’t know how to spell SWEDISH.  you know, if you can’t fucking spell your heritage, don’t put it, k?

now…do i blame them for being an idiot…or do i blame the schooling…or the parents….hmm, i think i blame them.  if you want to share your heritage, learn to spell it at least.

i really don’t understand…Sweden isn’t even spelled with a damn T.

/end rant

Ok, no kidding this was sent to me to put in our state-wide newsletter. Obviously, I had to do some major editing. The really scary thing is that she will be graduating next fall and will then be looking for a teaching position.
I agree with you on the spelling, but grammar is just as bad!!!

My name is _________. I am your SOEA _________.
I attended school at NSU. I have been married for 9 years and have to great boys.
I have held several local offices and state office twice.
I started teaching because i wanted to make a difference in children form my own background. I was raised up low poverty. my family never had money for me to do what i really wanted until my mother married my step dad and i finally got to be part of activities i always wanted too. I was still treated different by teachers and never really had one i connected with . I always wished I had a teacher i could talk to without filling poor. i love helping children in my committee and helping their families. that is why i want to be a teacher. so i can be their for students that need that someone to believe in them from the start. We have been working on requriting teachers of different nationalies. I like how that encourages students that would never thought they could be a teacher becouse they didnt have teachers form thier own backgrounds. Its agreat committee we have members form all different cultures. they are always happy to help with anything you need. they repersent OEA well. I believe.
