I wish I didn't have to go to bed soon, I have to go to gym class early tomorrow morning. Boo! :( |
I have a guest speaker in Biology too. :/ Crap.
|
I like bio but i don't like the chapter about reproduction in humans!!! :P :P
|
That one is also what makes the class all rowdy. Oh, and it's an headache trying to remember all the details.
|
We have a guest speaker who will talk about crap that doesn't matter. Zzzzz.
|
Makes you wish real life had a triple speed button, huh?
|
I could always, sleep through my guest speaker. XD
Meaning sleep til noon and slay any living thing that comes within a foot of my bedroom door. |
Ah a 6-page final treatise supporting demand side economics.
Should be a fun night. :P Gah, wai won't u open up PoliSci 40! :( |
Some classes are so groan-worthy. So boring, in fact, that you want to storm out.

No school for me tomorrow! Yay for sports day and not going!

Bleh, sports days. I was never a sporty person, so I just either skipped those days or read for six hours, lol.
|
I tend to just sleep through sports days.
|
Once again I'm gonna go against everyone in this thread and go on a huge tl;dr about how amazing sports are and how you're all terrible people for not liking them.
Or I would if ^ didn't more or less summarise it lol. I always really looked forward to sports days and any sport in general. I can't do any right now, though, since I messed up my ankle last week and it's not completely better yet. Annoying since it's been really nice out lately. |
I think I did goof up and messed up my ankle sometime in the past.
On another topic, what do you think of not having an avatar or signature? |
I've done mine in so many times haha.
I don't really think anything of it. As you can see. |
Sports day is more about school spirit anyway. And to hell with school spirit, it can go die.
|
Why the aversion to being happy with your school, Vappy? ):
Although ngl my school tends to take school spirit way too far lol. It can get really annoying sometimes when we just want to learn stuff and not have spirit shove down our throats. |
I don't think I really have some sort of school spirit back then, to be honest about it.
|
School spirit, the real school spirit in my school is gone since 2 years ago because of the change of Principal who only cares about academic success.
|
That kind of principal = super boring! It's like you get to do nothing else...
|
Exactly, ever since he came in 1 and a half years ago, the school has lesser and lesser school events. As a result of his pursue of academic success, there are 2 graded tests every school term now (1 school term being 10 weeks, 1 year has 4 terms). There used to be 1 graded test every term and 2 mini pop quiz test where you can flunk. But now, there's no chance of failure.
|
Isn't doing good academically a good thing though?
I literally cried when I had to run in school, lol. |
I didnt like my school much, the principal wasnt very good and neither was the one who took over after she stepped down as principal.
|
My high school principal was a total bad ass... When he had to do his occasional "sit down in class and see how the teacher/students are doing" duties he would come sit around us and be all like "I'm thinking about getting a tattoo on my arm. What should I get?!"
Or he would make a bet about something silly. One time he lost a bet to a student and had to wear a woman's wig around the campus for a day, heh. Then he resigned and some cross-eyed lady took his place. She was all about the rules. Oh lordy, I miss high school. Good times... good times. |
I had a really mean and strict assistant principal in middle school. She was really scary. After 7th grade, she left to be the principal at another school in the district.
|
If you're a principal you need to balance academic success with being an advocate for the kids. Being a good educator is much more than just simply throwing the books at them.

eeewwww why are we always talking about school in the DCC? 8(
|
We were off the topic there for awhile, but now we got back on it somehow.
I feel bad 'cuz Team Fail made a student chat, but all of it's ending up in DCC. x] |
Quote:
I'm so glad I'm almost done with high school! Just two more months... I think I'm doing fairly decent in my classes for the first time in years. :D Despite the D in my favorite class...but that's just me not doing too well on the work, rather than not turning it in. :\ |

Althrough i like all my fellow students, my previous school wa rubbish compared to this one... |

Oh god, senioritis. I had that, only the entire time I was in High School.
I remember during my last semester during my senior year in high school I already had every credit I needed to graduate, so I truly mailed it in that semester. I skipped my first period A LOT, which was just some sculpting class. The teacher absolutely hated me for it, and tried so hard to make sure I wouldn't graduate. One day he actually got the principal on me, so she sat down with me in her office and look over my credits and I just told her "I already have all of the credits I need." She realized that and told the teacher and he was even more pissed, haha. God, now that I think about it, he tried everything in his power to fail me. For our final project we had to create a package that could protect an egg from shattering in rough circumstances. My project was the only one that protected the egg in the entire class, yet he still failed me for it. x] |

Oh man, I had mad senioritis in my last year of high school. I wanted to leave before school even began. :P Not that my school was bad or anything, because it certainly wasn't, but I just really wanted to move on. And people were like "don't wish your high school life away you'll grow to miss it later yada yada yada" but honestly, not a day has gone by where I thought to myself, "man, y'know, I miss high school." It's more like, I think of high school and I'm like, "hasta la vista suckaaas!"
|
Senioritis affects me up to now still.
I am a very bad college student. :( |
Quote:
|
Hmm, it appears I have senioritis as a freshman.
Freshmanitis? |

I think it's fair to say that's just educationitis.
I have that severely. I can't be force fed information or told to do something a certain way, rather I just like to learn things on my own. Most of my college work is incredibly fun but even so i'm still reluctant to do it, mainly because i'm being assigned something and told to do it a certain way. |
Guys I still have senioritis

I took some of the weirdest electives in school, haha. Grade nine, I picked visual arts, even though I knew I was terrible at drawing and I was much better in music. Grade ten, I picked computer science because I thought I would want a career in that field, but I decided against it partway through the course. Grade eleven, I took chemistry, physics, and biology. The only one I actually liked was bio. I nearly failed physics, and chemistry and I have never gotten along and never well. I took two math courses in grade twelve and I wholly regret it, especially since I'm not using any of those skills right now (I'm a French major).
tl;dr I should have picked music as an elective throughout all four years but I never did alkdgnsldgkn |
Computer classes in high school are a joke. :(
|
Quote:
|
We had a grade nine "business" course (which wasn't the course I took), and it sounded all important and economical and stuff but in reality, it was like, "what is a keyboard" "what is Microsoft Word" "how do you make things bold in Word" and so on. :/
|
I took a bunch of "sports" business classes that eventually led to me choosing Sports Management as my intended major at college.

This video deserves to be our new topic. It's a friend playing Amnesia until to the 3 minute mark where he starts crying and changes it to a crap loop song he made. |
School is hell for me. It's an absolute crap school that is still considered 'good' because of it's past reputation. The teachers don't teach well, you don't get enough opportunities, etc.
|
I played Amensia and it didn't phase me at all... I jumped a little at the end, but that's it. (And that was one of those "I'm not gonna make it, I'm not gonna make it... omg I made it!" kind of moments.)
|
And just like that, DCC dies lol.
QK you must have nerves of steel man. That game has ruined the dark for me. On a separate note, PC needs a theme song, no? Ok.. |
We can still be working on a better one of those, like our slogan?
|
Whoever suggested mlp for the topic should be banned.

We work on something for approximately 30 minutes, then say we'll finish it tomorrow. Every day after that, it's just everyone saying they'll do it the next day. :P |

Dude.
I tried so hard to understand why the hell everyone's so up in arms about MLP. I watched like five minutes of it and omg it's just a kid's show I just don't underSTAND. :( |
The only time I've ever seen MLP was in a flash video making fun of it.
I'd like to keep it that way. |
This .gif really says it all.

I dont like My Little Pony much. I have watched it and its just ok, not great.
|
I used to be into it and now I still think the ponies are cute and have a favorite but I haven't watched the episodes since the new year rolled around lol.
|
I only watched the first season. My Pair talked me into watching the whole first season, thats the only reason I watched it. Im just not into it like other people are, but thats ok.
|
It should cease to exist in my book.
I THINK IT'S NEW TOPIC TIME anything but mlp, please. Anybody notice Jupiter and Venus are visible right now in the sky? Like, they're really bright. |
AW MAN WAT? I don't think I can see it from my window, and if I go out at this time i'm probably going to get stabbed or mauled by a rabid dog or something.
Why was this not on the news?! >:O |
I'm waiting to see the rocket launches since they're like...45 minutes up the road from me. Should be able to see them really well from my yard.
|
I would go outside but I'm in my pajamas and they don't match and I look really silly and it's Thursday night on a college campus so a ton of people will be out. :( And they'll all be in pretty dresses and I'll be in my pajamas lol.
|
They just said they're not optimistic about it launching tonight now...clouds in New Jersey or something. And since the weather's supposed to be bad here all weekend, it's probably going to be next week.
|
Quote:
We have a small air port nearby so we get to see a lot of the single person/small group planes landing/taking off and flying overhead, but that pales in comparison to a rocket. :O |
New Jersey always ruins everything. Everyone has to learn that lesson at some point in their lives.
|
It would appear as though I missed the MLP conversation... Oh well. :V
And New Jersey does ruin everything... They are the only thing that could make a shore sound unpleasant... |
I've never actually been to New Jersey, but I have a friend who does nothing but talk about how she wants to live there.
Personally I think she's crazy judging by all of the things I've heard about it. |
I live in New Jersey when I'm not at college...south jersey is bad, really bad. Camden is one of the worst cities in the nation, I think Detroit is worse than it in the rankings this year but it never drops below top 5. North Jersey I've heard is nice though.
But in reality Jersey doesn't have its own culture lol. South Jersey people are Philadelphians, and North Jersey people are New Yorkers. |
I've been to new Jersey once. I don't remember it being horrible, but I don't recall anything particularly wonderful about it either.
I was there for an event in the Somerset/North Brunswick area, which is kinda close to the NYC metro area. Close enough so most everything's pretty much urban. I'd still rather go to Jersey than Hoenn, though :P |
And I'm here sitting, thinking about how little I know about American things. :(
|
Just came back from the Hunger Games premiere and was liek "Conformist ending for Hunger Games? Was hoping for a revolutionary call to action mang."
|
The more you guys talk about The Hunger Games, my interest in that gets higher and higher.
Just as well, as even browsing IE blogs will get you that :P |
Argh I need to read the book stilll. D:
|
The hype makes me have zero interest. Mostly cause the people that hype it are the kind of people that wouldn't share my interests, so I kinda doubt it's for me. I'll stick to my Battle Royale. ;x
|
In contrast to Toujours, the hype has influenced my decision to check the series out. I'll probably start reading it sometime today.
|
My sister is in the minority and read the book but didn't enjoy it that much. I myself haven't read the book and I'm not sure if I'll be doing so any time soon.
|
Maybe I'm just more hipster than I think!
|
It was a pretty good movie. But I didn't know that it was a Trilogy, so the ending was kinda iffy for me. But after reading up on the Wiki it makes sense now o3o

I can't stand when certain things get over-hyped. I don't know what it is, but it sounds like an eating contest. |
Hunger Games sounds to me like some sort of video game. One of the casual ones that you'd play on your smartphone, not a console title.
|
I got an iPod and was going to play some nice games on it but all I can find are Facebook-style games that are like "you can only play X many times then you have to buy things with rl money! Get some neighbors! Play with people!" I just want a single-player game I can play when I don't have internet on it but I can't find any. ;____;

Read the first two chapters and it seems like a promising book!
|
Meh, I wasn't really impressed by it. It's a clearly overhyped book. The first half was good, but towards the end, it turned into a Twilight clone. Too much kissing and stuff at the end lol.
|
Out of curiosity, who would want to see a Russian getting scared by Amnesia?
|
I love The Hunger Games. The books were really good, so I hope the movie is as well. Seeing it on Monday. Id like to re read the book some before seeing it, just because I love the book and want to remember everything.
