I hated Statistics when I had to take the class. Thank goodness I didn't have to do a paper for it. ^^

Amane 11-02-2012 10:18 PM

Seems legit. I just realized something… my toughest teachers in all my school years were mostly in English.

@Serena: Statistics is alright. I don't like how my teacher teaches and often have to teach it to myself from the book. A paper, though? And four pages? LOL nope.

Mine were in...all my art classes...well...not all...mostly the ones with my drawing teacher at the school I go to now...

Amane 11-02-2012 10:21 PM

My art teachers were nice. I just couldn't keep up because I'm a perfectionist and take forever to make art things. I love it, though. *has a drawing tablet and folder full of scans*

serena yuy 11-02-2012 10:21 PM

Yeah, my English teachers were brutal. I had one history prof who was more brutal than most of my profs.
Now I'm in Graduate school. ^^" Not so well. :/

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:22 PM

I don't even think I am going to go to graduate school...or at least not now...well...after I finish undergraduate...I'm just done with the whole school thing now I think.

Amane 11-02-2012 10:23 PM

Ooh, gosh. My history teacher first semester last year was terrible. I was in shock at how little was expected of us when I got switched to a very lenient, relaxed teacher second semester.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:24 PM

I've had good luck with history teachers. I've only had a total of three different ones...but I liked them all. :D

Amane 11-02-2012 10:29 PM

My social studies teachers are usually less strict and have a really good sense of humor. That one I mentioned was the only one who gave me problems.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:31 PM

I haven't heard a history class called social studies since the 6th grade. O.o

Amane 11-02-2012 10:33 PM

I haven't since 8th grade. When we pick classes, the history/economy/government classes are under social studies, so I used that term to describe them collectively.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:35 PM

Ahh....in 6th grade, it was called social studies. After that, it was called whatever the course was called and it was lumped under history in high school. in middle school you could only pick out your electives.

Amane 11-02-2012 10:39 PM

Once I started high school, "Social studies" became a forgetten term until it was time to pick classes for the next year. They are called by the course name on our schedules.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:41 PM

Mhmm. I miss high school. I also miss my community college.

serena yuy 11-02-2012 10:43 PM

This is my first semester of Grad school and sadly I might be regretting it. I'm burnt out. I don't think anything I'm learning is retaining in my head. That and I'm upset because I dunno if I'm going to pass anything this semester and if I'll even be able to keep going because I am still figuring out how to pay off the rest of this semester.

I miss the school I got my bachelor's degree at :(

Amane 11-02-2012 10:43 PM

I miss my first elementary school. Most colorful place ever. They closed it down.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:45 PM

Serena: Did you go into it right after graduating? If so, that's the bad thing. We're always told to take a year off before going into graduate school.

Amane: My first elementary school got burned down...so we had to go to another school that was closed while a new school was being build. So I went to three elementary schools. :/

Amane 11-02-2012 10:49 PM

It got turned into a bus station, but it's still intact. It was K-2nd. Right next to it there was a 3rd-5th elementary school. When I was a third-grader, they closed down the K-2nd school, converted the other one to a K-5th, opened a new K-5th, and moved several people (including me) there. Therefore, I also went to three elementary schools.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:52 PM

Amane: I may have done to 4?
*thinks* I was at this one church for pre-k. Then another school for kindergarten. Then in first grade I went to the one that ended up getting burned down. After the new school was built, that pre-k and kindergarten was brought into the new elementary school. So it is pre-k through 5th grade now.

serena yuy 11-02-2012 10:53 PM

I took a semester off. I graduated in December 2011. So, I had the Spring semester and Summer to defrag and such.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 10:56 PM

Nice. :D
I wish I had the summer to get over the spring. But I had a class...which I ended up turning stuff in late in the end because my mom was hospitalized and had to have double bypass. Was supposed to be a triple but they couldn't do anything for the third one.

Amane 11-02-2012 10:59 PM

That new school that I was switched to was out in an area with a lot of farmland. The playground stank of manure on several days the first year I went there. I didn't like it for that reason. I was fortunate, though, that several of my friends were also switched to there.

I didn't go to preschool. My dad taught me to read and I sort of taught myself to write/spell. I've always been advanced in that way. My dad once said I had amazing diction when I started talking. Not surprising with the way I am now.

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 11:02 PM

My community college is in the middle of farmland and the interstate. XD

I did. Most people around here go to pre-k unless they end up being completely home schooled.

serena yuy 11-02-2012 11:02 PM

I didn't go to pre-school pre-school. My mom had me in a daycare for awhile just so I could have interaction with kids my age and so she could sleep during the day since she worked nights until I was 6
I also learned to read by my family I believe. I caught onto reading well. I went through school with a reading level higher than most of my class.
I also wasn't much of a social child... still not too social. I crave it sometimes, but I remember being little and sitting in the corner reading and not getting along with the kids in my class and I got made fun of a lot as a kid.

So, I just have a FEW close friends ^^"

TerrenaAnimula 11-02-2012 11:04 PM

Most of my good friends are online and I wish they'd live closer to me so we could hang out.
I have never been a people person. I probably hung out with more people in the 4th grade though than any other time. :/
I had a higher reading level than most of the class too.
