This is strange. My teachers like me, but they still grade everyone, including me, fairly.
hmm.. funny thing when I read this, the first thing that came to mind was that when I was a Junior back in High School, I remember I had a keyboarding teacher who just didn't give a ****, seriously that guy was so lazy he wouldn't even average up our grades, so basically everyone in class, even those who would sleep during class would all get A's and B's, which ended being one of my favorte classes in high school. ^_^

My honors english teacher gave the whole class "let me get to know you" papers. yeah, I did mine but with an incredibly satirical or bitter tone. it was about things like cults, lawyers, scientology bashing, bashing language arts etc. my teacher ended up reading the entire thing to the class.

I was really embarrassed

hmm. let see....


Which teacher do you like the most
my keyboarding teacher who was a lazy bum, also my History AP teacher was awesome, and let my tardies slip by.

Which teacher do you hate you most
GOD, it's was my Chemistry teacher, she was such a pain in the butt who did nothing but give us pop quizes and homework almost ever day, plus she would always complain if I even asked a question to my fellow classmates which would bother the **** out of me when she picked on me.

What is your easiest class
uh.. Agriculture, our teacher would basically give us a book to read answer a few questions from it, then basically we would watch a fun (not educational) movie for the remainder of the class period, basically this was our daily routine in that class so yea...

what is your hardest class
well it was definetly Algebra 2 or Pre-Cal, god just seeing all those algebraic equations and having to solve them really made my brain hurt.

How much do you like your classes
well, out of any of my years in High School, I say my Senior Year was the best, (good classes, early release etc...) followed by my Freshman year

Have you made any new friends
well as a matter of fact I still pretty much talk to some of my fellow classmate, as for friends well I wouldn't say I had a lot, but I sure did have a bunch of (girl) friends.

How are the lunches
well they were an hour long which was awesome, but the long lines sure weren't.


Are your lockers big enough and do they work
surprisingly, my locker did work the first time I tried to open it, though one time I think my backpack got stuck in it when I tried to stuff in with all my book :urg:

Do you do after school activities
well I did do some Soccer varsity, but other than that I really didn't get into them do to my after school job I had back then


Do you have a girlfriend/boyfriend

well I do now, but it's not the same girlfriend I had in High school, who btw was really such an annoying, spoiled girl who would do nothing but beg me to take her somewhere and would often times drain my wallet


have you lost any friends
yes, we keep in touch we rarely talk or even see each other anymore

Have you gotten a detention
sh... when I was a freshman I only got ONE the entire school year, my Sophmore and Junior years none, but my senior year, sh.. I got like 10 just for skipping class lol..

How many tardies
and lastly[/QUOTE]

tardies? well I lost track after I got around 14

How are the class rooms and halls
well, they certainly weren't spacious enough which is a real shame, because often times the halls would get crowded as hall, oddly though the main hall wouldn't get as much, classroom where average, but I say kinda small.

I absolutly love tricking teachers into thinking your a freak. For the first day of seventh grade I wore skinny jeans with a sweater vest and my hair straightened down to my nose.

Okay questions
Which teacher do you like the most

My Linear Circuits professor is awesome. He's hilarious and he actually gets the material across to you.

Which teacher do you hate you most

My TA for differential equations. He hardly speaks English, and he can't teach to save his life. When you ask questions, he just gives you a weird look and acts like whatever you didn't understand was obvious.

What is your easiest class

Biology

what is your hardest class

Differential Equations. It's not even really a math class. I thought I would be learning math, but I'm actually learning about the Korean language.

How much do you like your classes

7/10

Have you made any new friends

Yes, plenty of new study buddies

How are the lunches

Awesome. I expected college food to suck, but I was wrong

Are your lockers big enough and do they work

If by locker, you meant dorm room, then yes!

Do you do after school activities

I'm part of the local bboy crew. And I have a few other less exciting things on my list.

Do you have a girlfriend/boyfriend

nope

have you lost any friends

Yeah, but no one that I truly lose sleep over. I make sure I keep in touch with people I really care about.

Have you gotten a detention

Doesn't exist!

How many tardies

College doesn't have these either!

and lastly

Not really any better than high schools. A little disappointing. Although high school didn't have a nuclear reactor in the basement!

A bit late to the party, but whatever.

Regarding the quiz...

Okay questions
Which teacher do you like the most
Psychology teacher. Fresh out of college, young, attractive, sharp as a whip, knows her stuff and knows how to teach it. I really dig this woman.
Which teacher do you hate you most
AP W. History teacher. This lady is lazy, has a weird lazy eye that's always looking around, and is possibly an alcoholic based on certain things that I've observed.
What is your easiest class
JROTC or Geometry (it took me sixteen years but I finally got over my stupidity in math. This class is a breeze now.)
what is your hardest class
W. History, just because I can't learn with the teacher's erratic methods.
How much do you like your classes
Not too much. The days rotate, so I basically have Self-knowledge day (Psych, AP English III, French II) and Learn-about-the-past day (JROTC, AP W. History, A. History H), with Geometry ending each day. Some science or music would've been spectacular. I'm sure I'll go crazy by January or so.
Have you made any new friends
Yes
How are the lunches
I bring my lunch to school. From what I've seen, all meat is mystery meat.
Are your lockers big enough and do they work
Locker is way too small. Between 5 textbooks, 4 binders, 3 folders, and any other things, I have about half an inch of space.
Do you do after school activities
Drama club, Libra Libra Book club at the moment
Do you have a girlfriend/boyfriend
No
have you lost any friends
Yes
Have you gotten a detention
No
How many tardies
0
and lastly

Crowded and smell funky in about 1/4th of the buildings.

To those who already graduated college:

Did you really graduate on time (meaning four years since you entered)? Or is graduating on time is just rare for most people?

Because I think I'm going to be graduating like a semester later.

You can leave as soon as you finish all 12 years (excluding kindergarten). Most people are 17 or 18. But if you skipped like three grades or something, you might be younger.
You might be able to drop out after ten years depending on which school system you're in (mine doesn't allow it)



short rantish thing:
I'm in one of the best school systems in the country, yet right now we're broke (budget and things like that). But as soon as you walk into the school there are big plasma screens everywhere. And what do they use em for? Powerpoints. Hur hur i gud wif monays.
I heard they're cutting down on summer school and other things. And while it's not that big of a deal, it's still somewhat lolish.

Juat wanted to know, to see how different it is from here.

That's a weird system.

Over here as soon as you turn 16 they can throw you out or you can leave.

Btw, what's the earliest age you can leave school in America?
I actually heard that you can drop out at fourteen.

The thing is, though, is that most parents won't let their kids do it.

On a different subject, I wish I could've gotten homeschooled. But my mom couldn't afford it.

Agreed. I already have to start working on a science project. It was so easy to pass in middle school but now that I'm in high school, it's a lot harder.

Oh.. Guess what I get to do... I get to read To kill a mocking bird. It really boring actually but I heard it was on the banned book list so its like I'm reading rated x book
What is happening to reading actual books with today's generation? D:

It's only banned because use of the word "n*gger" so many times, and the idea of racism in society is handled.

It's pretty good, if I recall correctly, I haven't read it in years.

lol.. w-h-a-t?, are you meaning to tell me that "To Kill a Mockingbird" is on a so called "banned list"? that must be the most absurd thing thing I ever heard, seriously, what is this society coming to that even using a slightest term that's refers to racism will get a book banned, that's just wack, sure that book may not be the best out there, but it sure isn't worth banning it just for using a afro racist word.

It's nowhere near as embarrassing as Huckle Berry Finn being on said banned list for racism as well.

It's a sad thing that two of the most famous literary examples of racial tolerance in the U.S., even at the time, are banned because of using n*gger.
