The cynicism of the young about the modern university system, especially the smart ones like you lot, horrifies me, and it's all our own fault. When we educated only the best 10% of the population we could teach whatever we liked and didn't have to take any shit from the students. If you didn't love maths, and you didn't work hard you were screwed, and quite right too, but if you got a degree it actually meant something.

It wasn't the top 10% - not academically, at least. There were whole communities with virtually nobody getting an academic education beyond 18. Expectation levels have risen to the point where inner city kids and, crucially, their parents have expectations of an education beyond 18 (which has been commonplace in many other developed countries for a long time).

Look on the bright side - perhaps after the tuition fee hike coming in next year you will have your cushy teaching of middle class kids back again

I'm not normally this much of a wind-up merchant by the way!

I get the idea. But hoovering up 50% of the population to make sure we get hold of the bright inner city kids is a bit King Herod don't you think?

We really must resist a major derail of this poker blog, the debate could go on and on! Probably find some more vocational courses appropriate for less academic students. Then the academic ones can go to courses for them and the others do more vocational or apprenticeship type training.

I think Maths is a different animal, it needs a look at right through from primary school. I have a friend that teaches A level Maths that says students with only an A in GCSE (rather than A*) often struggle, and another friend that lectures at uni who says the A level students aren't good enough so there is something wrong somewhere!

Probably this should be debated on your blog though or somewhere else, I'm going to shut up here unless its about Slovakia, Scotland or <gasp> poker!

Your clearly not qualified to talk about any of this

I didnt spam my blog for a while ä2 days already)

I didnt play any poker last 2 days.
I feel mentally drained, I feel a burn-out and I am tired all the time.
I will fail missrably this month.

so what am I doing last 2 days? Listening to a book and trying to slowly re-organize and prioritize my life and change my approach to everything.

I will try to apply Parezo principle to everything

I will treat my body like a temple (starting slowly ofc)

Also, I am doign some "comfort challenges"

Every Challenge is set to last 2 days

1st challenge- Gazing For The Win
-Gaze/stare into smbdys eyes till THEY break the eyecontact
-gaze at strangers passing by
-try to maintain eye contact while speaking (waay harder than doing it while listening)
+ few others...

If u dont know what inner retard is ...

If smth reaaally urgent happens, contact me at skype or here (FE. world is going to explode in 72 hours, redheads will be raptured, Partypoker declaring new promo for October (It might not be Gladiator according to VIP support cause they have no freakin idea what they will put there and Gladiator was set to be on October for 6 months now ...

I'm sure I read that book, but cant recall it's name... Funny reading, but too dangerous to try if you choose strangers randomly.

I guess it didnt really help you, did it?
And its all about choosing strangers, find the scariest, biggest person and stare at him and if he says smth like "Why are u staring at me" U can always jsut respond w "U seems fammmiliar mate" or any BS like that.
I hardly had problems w "huge" men though. Its not a real challenge to me. I have problem w different type of people (long story).

Anyway, 3rd challenge will be a REAL CHALLENGE to me.

3rd Challenge-asking for phone numbers
-ask at least 2 attractive women for their phone number each day,, jsut approach and ask and leave

Use poker references ofc..
