I promise that every photo I show you from Poland is not going to be a sign, but I kid you not when I reveal that the words on this plaque spell out the phrase “Polish Academy of Skills.” Do you think they have a course for kids who can’t read good and wanna learn to do other stuff good too?
If I attended such a magical place to gain skills Napoleon Dynamite would lust over I would take the courses “How to Make Money While Being an Obsessive Blogger” and “How Not To Procrastinate Your Schooling” and most importantly “How to Resist the Temptation to Spend All of Your Money.”
What courses would you be enrolling in?

I think I’d take, “how to be a rennisance woman and make some real money at it.”
Also I hear the “Distraction, how to overcome - ooh look a bird” is really fun too.

-I’ll enrol in Jenna’s “How to Make Money While Being an Obsessive Blogger”, followed up by the second half “How To Turn Blogging Into a Career”
-I’ll be in blablover5′s “Distraction, how to overcome - ooh look a bird” course
-Then I’ll sign up for the “Eat Lots of Candy, Chocolate and Other Foods Without Gaining A Pound” (Not to be confused with the diet-pills that don’t actually work. I suspect the course I’m signing up for would require physical activity, but I won’t read the syllabus until the course starts to prevent deterring myself from enrolling. Once I’ve paid the course fees, I’ll be forced to go.)
-And of course, “How Not To Procrastinate Your Housecleaning”
(Though, when still a student, I found housecleaning was what I used to avoid studying. Now that I don’t have courses … well … I’ll need to sign up for this course!)

Oh ma ga. That is the funniest thing.
I hear you on the “How to Make Money While Being an Obsessive Blogger”, and raise you a “When Is A Good Time to Have A Baby”. For good measure, I’d throw in “How To Not Procrastinate on Wedding Scrapbooking” and “How to Banish Blackheads Forever” .
