Get off the internet.

NOW.

FYI: DeviantART's main purpose is for art. Not for some teenage angst and 13-day teenage "love" life.

Technology.

Speed and memory capacity of computers are doubling each year. (Yay for transistors!)

Did you notice?
Technology grows faster and faster.

Children grows shorter and shorter.
They also mature slower and slower.

When I was their age, I rode my bike with the kids around the local area. Grounds were drawn on with chalks. Skipping ropes lived out of the shoe-drobe, as well as rollerblades, rollerskates and scooters.

I'm sure many others have noticed, but the year 7's are getting shorter each year.
They're also getting cockier and more disrespectful. Or in a more colloquial term, "up themselves". Sure, my year was (probably) somewhat like that, but they're getting worse. Fact.

Actually, I don't think we're a bad year group. There were only a couple of class clowns here and there, but they've all dropped out of school now, and gone. But at this rate, half of the newcomers seem no different to the dropouts.

It was just over ~5 years ago, when we had the utmost respect for the seniors. They were real adults, with responsibilities, and we respected that.
Nowadays; those little kiddies don't know how to give proper respect. Even now, some year elevens are just plain rude. I hope they have fun with this year's year tens, next year. *sniggers*

Hurr, I wonder. If that's how the elderly saw the world develop in violence. The phrase "Kids these days have no manners" pops into my mind. :P

ATAR-D©

Yesterday, it seems like all year 11's and year 12's receieved a rather odd letter of notification from UAC.

Apparently, UAI has been changed to ATAR(Australian Tertiary Admission Rank). To be honest here, UAI sounded, and worked much better.
As many of the year 11 and 12 students know, it is now impossible to receive an ATAR of 100. Getting 99.95 ATAR is apparently the same as getting 100 UAI.
More info can be found at the UAC site.
Personally, I think they should've changed it after 2009 HSC exams. After all, according to the letter, and their website, there arn't much things being altered except the name, and the conversion of scores. Great, now we have to use a table to convert our scores. And we're a lazy generation, most of us can't even be bothered to pull out a table and convert the scores. But we do it anyway, with complaint. P:

So, upon celebrating this exciting occasion, let me present a new meme for you;
ATAR + Nerd(or rather, retard, as the word is violated beyond its limits these days) = ATARD.

I couldn't help but think of the term instantly upon receiving the letter.

Yep, we're all ATARDs now.
I hereby throw this term into our teenage society for violation and abuse. It may be used as a noun, verb, adjective, or anything you like.

Heck, let it be up on Urban Dictionary.
