Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I'm wanting pasta now too. We really need to stop talking about food. :laughingsmiley: Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 LUCKY! I'll b starting my 4th week back in about 30 minutes. D: whoa o.o Four weeks ago. My summer vacation just started XD Quote
Unstream Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 How does your summer vacation just start now? I mean, summer's just finishing up! Wait, who has school tomorrow? Haha that would be me. Livvy was right, I was getting some sleep. Woke up on time pretty easily, which was nice, especially knowing that usually I hit snooze for the first 20 minutes before I have to drag myself out of bed. Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 So how was school today Will? I cringe just hearing about school starting, and I don't even have to go. Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 How does your summer vacation just start now? I mean, summer's just finishing up! No like my summer vacation started about 4 weeks ago because my parents insited on me taking bio in summer school >.< ....and then I had swimming...and volunteering...and piano...and I swear I'd rather just be at regular day school >_> Quote
vampire_girl Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 No, please don't mention the school! :crying: I can't believe that this summer passed so quickly.. My School starts next week. So sad... :sad01_anim: I can't believe that I'm going to 8th grade, I'm not ready yet! I was hardly ready for 7th grade! How will I go to high school?? I don't know ahything about it! :guiltysmiley: Everything good is passing too quick. :( Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Here, high school wasn't bad. Not a whole lot changed, except they got more serious about things. Like with gym, if you missed a certain number of classes, they started affecting your trade, so you had to make them up on your free periods. Quote
vampire_girl Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Well, yeah, it's not THAT bad, but I heard that teachers are really srtict and that they will give you lower grade if they don't like you. So, there's a little problem. :worried: Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I'd heard of that happening at my school, like with the Honors English teacher. (My sister is a super brain, but the teacher hated her and she got lower grades on projects than she should have. But English wasn't her best subject.) I had the same teacher, and I had no issues... though I love writing and English. And then my friend got flunked by the same teacher. (But she wasn't an English person either.) I have no idea. I never had any issues. You only ran into trouble if you didn't do the work. Quote
vampire_girl Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I know. I do everything properly and on time. But my Geograpy teacher was really giving me a lot of trobules in 5th and 6th grade. She was teacher to my mum and her sister. She guessed that she used to be a teacher to my mum. Teacher liked my mum, but not her sister, so she conceit a little bit that I'm like her, so she was giving me bad grades. :angry: She is good now. Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 The only teacher I ever had, that my mom had, was the art teacher in middle school. But I did usually end up getting teachers my sister had. (I'm just under 3 years younger than her.) Quote
Unstream Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 So how was school today Will? I cringe just hearing about school starting, and I don't even have to go. It actually wasn't too bad. I mean, it was a bit boring cause all the teachers were just going over rules and everything, and we didn't really do much. I got to see some of my friends that I didn't see all summer. New teachers and everything too, but it almost feels like the start of a new semester, not the start of a new year. And I'm actually pretty excited about some classes this year. My English teacher is hilarious and it sounds like she's a pretty good teacher. Trig/Precalc seems like it'll almost be fun too. The rest of my teachers aren't bad, but not really notable either. Last year was a wreck though. I'm gonna try doing everything more efficiently, and, well, actually getting things done too. Unfortunately that's probably gonna mean I won't be around here as often, but I'll still try to check in every now and then. No like my summer vacation started about 4 weeks ago because my parents insited on me taking bio in summer school >.< ....and then I had swimming...and volunteering...and piano...and I swear I'd rather just be at regular day school >_> That doesn't sound so bad. I mean, swimming is good exercise, volunteering is gonna look good for college, and piano can be fun if you have the right mindset about it. I can't believe that I'm going to 8th grade, I'm not ready yet! I was hardly ready for 7th grade! How will I go to high school?? I don't know ahything about it! :guiltysmiley: Everything good is passing too quick. :( Haha I kinda have that same feeling. Like the whole "Holy crap, I'm a Junior?!? o_O" :P Take my word for it, high school isn't really that different. You transition pretty nicely. And don't say everything good is passing too quickly either, because more good times are to come. Really, high school can be relatively enjoyable. That's why I'm not so sad when parts of life are passing away, cause college is gonna come with it's own joys and hates, and past that, the same with my future career. Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I've never had really bad teachers. Sure there was the pedo business teacher, the racist civics teacher and the English teacher that hates my guts and always gave me bad marks but in those classes. Either a) keep your head down, stay in the back of the class and don't talk too loudly or too often or b) suck up....Follow these rules in life and you'll do fine XD I'm going to gr. 11. Grade 8 was a piece of cake. Grade 9 was a bit hard since I went to a high school where I only knew two ppl but I made friends. Grade 10 was again a piece of cake because of that one important factor: NO FRENCH! And in my school. No one really cared about gym... Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 I had some really bad teachers, in 6th and 8th, but I got through it, by just doing the work. Though in 8th, I got in trouble for doing too much. We did a lot of group projects, and I'd do some of the other people's work when they wouldn't, because I refused to get a bad grade because I was grouped with people that didn't care. Quote

I mean, swimming is good exercise, volunteering is gonna look good for college, and piano can be fun if you have the right mindset about it. *sigh* I'll tell you what I tell everyone else: There a million other sports out there that will get me good exercise. Most which shouldn't involve water, the stench of chlorine, random ppl feeling you up and the feeling of almost having your lungs explode when risking your life for a brick. Volunteering doesn't help if you fail your classes because you were too busy volunteering to study. Piano....sucks...just plain old sucks. I mean, what can be more tedious than playing songs by people who died four centuries ago? I had some really bad teachers, in 6th and 8th, but I got through it, by just doing the work.

BEfore high school I only had one bad teacher and that was my gr 8 music teacher but again, I played bass so all I had to do was sit in the back, play one note and she didn't bother with me. And I've done most/all of the work a lot in group projects but I've never gotten in trouble for it o.0 Although there was this one time when I got a much lower mark than my lazy ass partner and I did all the work. I told the teacher about it and she just kinda waved it off.... I wanted to strangle the teacher.....who was the English teacher (I told you she hated me) >_> Quote
Divya Bean Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Yus. It's like a huggle and a glomp at the same time. :yes: Explain your "ayeyaiyai." I'm very curious now. My ayeyaiyai signifies that there must be sypers amoung us. :worried: Spooky....... Livvy huggleglomping pretty much means she's hugging you and attempting to nom your head at the same time. It's odd, but flattering. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! And on the current topic, I start school in...lemme see...in one week! x_x Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Alright. That's another one for "still chillin"....we should have a poll XD And on a totally unrelated note. If I need help about programming does that go in the help thread or the programming one? :S Quote
Luciana Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 *sigh* I'll tell you what I tell everyone else: There a million other sports out there that will get me good exercise.

I mean, what can be more tedious than playing songs by people who died four centuries ago? Maybe you'll enjoy things more if you stop being so freaking negative about everything. Swimming is one of the best sports, because you're working out a ton of muscles at the same time. Also, if someone's feeling you up in a pool maybe you should tell someone instead of complaining about it here wth don't let people touch you without permission!!! (I would post the programming question in the help forum. Only because that forum is a lot more active.) Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 @lucianna: I was just saying that I don't like swimming. Unstream then took off with it so I elaborated. As for the 2nd sentence. Have you ever taken a lifegaurding course before? They do nothing but feel you up. And I don't want to start a fight so we'll end it at that deal? And thanks for the answer too. Quote
Luciana Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 That's really uh um??? Would that really be necessary in a lifeguarding class? :mellow: Quote
Kuroida Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 well you have to pull the person out of the water. Drag them to a "safe spot" and then start CPR....and if you're a girl your hands go like right where the hissis are which is awkward for both the person preforming CPR and the "victim." And lifting them out of the water is really uncomfortable too -_- Life saving is full of uncomfortable positions and awkwardness in my opinion Quote
Luciana Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Ughh. I would never take a lifeguarding class. That sounds really awkward. Is that a required class in your school or is it outside of school? Quote
Revenge Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 *Reads post several times*... Oh! Filters. Right. I'm really slow today... Quote
livvy Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Haha, yeah. Before school started, everyone was asking me "Ready for senior year?" and I'd be like "What? Oh! Yeah, I guess..." School started two weeks ago, and so far it feels like a fairly normal year, but I keep getting these "... 0_0 HOLY CRAP.... I'm a SENIOR" flashes. Annnnd then you have college applications. Joy. :rolleyes_anim: But high school really isn't all that bad. I mean, junior year sucks, but the rest of high school isn't all that much different from middle school. Teachers still have to follow the same rules that keep them from being too biased, the food still tastes 2 days too old, etc. I've had some bad teachers, but I had bad teachers in middle school too. For example, the hippie smoker who typed everything in capital comic sans because she didn't know when to capitalize things (which she freely admitted to us.) Will, you give such sage wisdom, and I know you're not trying at all. :P EDIT: Yeah, I saw that too, Jhon. Quote
Spritzie Posted August 30, 2010 Posted August 30, 2010 Livvy, should we add Will to our Wise-Beyond-Our-Years group? Quote
