I have been thinking about things I haven't used since high school. Been wondering if high school was just a waste of time. If there should have been trades or specialization. I never used MLA formatting in more than a decade.

I don't do the kind of writing that would require any formal format, but a teacher in college seemed to feel that MLA was meant to be used strictly in an academic setting. I'm not sure what I was told to use in high school, but in college all the writing classes wanted us to use a format relevant to our major. I believe I used APA but it has been awhile. Could have been MLA.
