That's good at least. [yes]

APBCole 05-11-2014 10:15 PM

@Ely: I like Kevin Spacey though...

I can't get below 12 credit hours or else I can't keep my financial aid. Sadly, I learned that 12 credit hours is my workload limit during a semester or I risk being overloaded followed by me crashing and burning.

CloudDreamer 05-11-2014 10:19 PM

Yeah, that's me as well - I'm going to go insane next semester because in order to graduate next spring I need 15 units next semester. [sweat]

APBCole 05-11-2014 10:24 PM

Ha. Just got my last final for my film class graded and surely enough my instructor as always makes me dislike her. You know me sourcing the information and her calling it a "jump in logic" despite it being factually accurate.

ElysiumFate 05-11-2014 10:26 PM

I had a couple 18 credit hour semesters back in the day. I can't do that anymore because all of the classes I'm taking are 300 level or above. I'm going to go back to 12 credit hours starting in the fall.

I will most likely take 15 credits in the spring to get done with school.

My writing instructor was pretty harsh on my short story, but I expected it. I still did pretty decent on it and now I'm excited to try and revise it over the summer.

CloudDreamer 05-11-2014 10:28 PM

I'm in all 400 level classes next semester. [gonk] I'm going to die. :/

APBCole 05-11-2014 10:29 PM

Also, I feel film professors either extremely picky about presentations and stuff despite the fact that we only go over topics ever so slightly and then she expects us to scrounge around for stuff related to the topic at hand. Of course, I had a instructor during fall semester that wasn't overly picky but at least she understood that we're still learning.

Literally the topic we had for our final was only ever got over for maybe an hour each week for like 4 weeks. That's not enough and she expects us to be scholars and shit by then.

ElysiumFate 05-11-2014 10:32 PM

I think 300 and 400 level classes are similar in difficulty. I've had 400s that were easier than 300s by quite a lot, so it might not be as bad as you think, Cloud.

@Cole: Eh, I hate to say it but get used to it. XP It doesn't matter the major, you'll always have those professors. I had a professor last semester (and I've told this story in another thread so it might be familiar to you) who didn't really go over anything in class but then tested on minuscule details. You had to fully memorize chapters to pass his tests. It took 12 hours to read and take notes on a chapter, and there were four or more chapters per test.

Some teachers don't get it.

CloudDreamer 05-11-2014 10:36 PM

Mmmm.... thing is is that I can guarantee that none of them will have no interpreters, and with how it's looking I'll have two classes a day (2 hr 45 min) Wednesday/Thursday, and I'll need to be able to follow along without the help of someone interpreting. It's going to be EXHAUSTING. [yes]

And my roommate, who is in the 400 level classes now, loves to tell me how hard they are. [gonk] Even harder than the 300 level classes I'm in now.

APBCole 05-11-2014 10:37 PM

@Ely: Professor can either be cool as beans or the most nitpicky of people. It's probably the PhDs that go to their head. If they have one.

Shut up, you're a cute women. *pokes tummy*

ElysiumFate 05-11-2014 10:45 PM

@Cloud: You can do it! From what I've seen you're amazing at what you do, so just keep up the hard work. [yes]

Yeah, they'll be hard, but don't let your roommate psych you out.

@Cole: Yeah, it is. The professor who gave me so much shit last semester was a sweet guy but he was a graduate school professor who was filling in for a semester in the undergrad program. Holy shit. >.>

Why are you telling me to shut up so much today?! [gonk] *pokes your forehead and sticks tongue out at you*

APBCole 05-12-2014 12:01 AM

@Ely: Undergrads get treated like crap. I had a recitation teacher for my Intro to Film course who would extensively grade our stuff for grammar despite it not being the main focus of the class. It really annoyed us. She was supposed to be grading it for the content. Not to mention she kept reminding me to ask her for help on stuff on the papers after she graded them because that's how he was. She was a graduate student though. Liked her in class, hated her grading.

Shut up. *sticks my tongue out back at you, poking your forehead in return*

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 12:23 AM

Dinner was a hit, now for the cream puffs. :D

Yeah, I had a similar recitation GTA this semester. Although, the class was ABOUT grammar, but holy cow that first paper was bad shit. I took the class seriously after that and did well, but he was harsh. Everyone but me failed the cover letter and resume assignment because he was so picky.

This must be one odd standoff to see. XD *pokes your head harder*

APBCole 05-12-2014 12:25 AM

Not even a single one for me. Lame.

I bet you felt great after that. Did everyone else in your class happen to manage at all? How'd that go?

It's not a standoff. It's a pokeoff. *pokes your nose slightly hard*

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 12:31 AM

If you did not live 1000 miles away in the middle of nowhere I would let you have one. [lol]

I was actually a little "ashamed" of my success. Of course I was happy, but I had to keep my mouth shut or get glared at by everyone else who failed. [lol] I'm not sure how everyone else did with the rest of the class. I'm guessing it went better after people realized how hard they had to work.

*pokes your nose with her nose and then runs in the other direction*

APBCole 05-12-2014 12:42 AM

I don't live in the middle of nowhere! I live between Columbus and Toledo, Ohio. Basically the worst place ever.

Ha. You didn't want to be an asshole by saying much or else everyone in your class would despise you for awhile. Expected. I can understand that. You were the odd one out after all.

*laughs, running after you, and once again tackling you to the ground*

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 01:03 AM

So basically the middle of nowhere. [lol]

Yeah, pretty much. I had a class last semester, too, where the first test had a class average of 48. I got an 87 and after the permitted revision I had a 93. So I was just like. [ninja] I studied my ass off for that test.

Oof! All this tackle poking must be what's wrong with my shoulder. [lol]

APBCole 05-12-2014 01:05 AM

Shut u-...quiet you!

I hate you.

*keeps you down on the ground, starting to message your back*

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 01:14 AM

There's nothing quite as satisfying as getting the best of Mr. Sassypants. [lol]

Don't hate me, lol. I've failed my fair share of tests, too. Like super failed. That's why I worked so hard for those grades.

*suspects ulterior motives but purrs*

APBCole 05-12-2014 01:16 AM

You didn't get the best of me. I'm just not...awake enough to really try much of anything.

You're smart because you're a brunette. I know it. That's what it has to be.

*continues massaging your back, listening to your purrs* Someone loves getting massages...

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 01:27 AM

I got the best of you, just admit it. [lol]

Nah. It must be the nerd glasses that I wear sometimes.

Yes indeedy. They're a rare commodity to come by. *purrs some more*

APBCole 05-12-2014 01:30 AM

No, you didn't.

You're sexy and you know it.

*stops massaging your back, gets off you, and goes to sleep* No more for you tonight.

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 01:39 AM

Your defensiveness says I won. [lol]

I deny all such allegations.

*looks at from the corner of her eye but just lays there falling asleep*

APBCole 05-12-2014 01:41 AM

You can't since it's the known truth.

*rolls around, trying to sleep comfortably*

ElysiumFate 05-12-2014 02:04 AM

Objection overturned!

Allegations still denied. [t2h]

*thwacks some pillows from the corner of the library, watches dust go up in clouds, and then offers one to you*

Mr. Sassypants, look at my creampuffs. :D
