Bah... numbers are so boring when they aren't part of equations.

Kat Dakuu 01-08-2010 03:37 AM

I suck at sudoku.

fairywaif 01-08-2010 03:37 AM

I would prefer they weren't in equations actually. Then I would have to solve them... :lol:

Nanenna 01-08-2010 03:39 AM

... I like solving equations but I don't like trying to solve a sudoku. ^^; I kinda miss geometry and calculus... I don't miss all the proofs and theorems in geometry. -_-

Kat Dakuu 01-08-2010 03:43 AM

I hate math.....meh meh meh.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 03:46 AM

Math is very easy, it has rules and always follows them! Nothing else in this world follows its own rules so well, especially not languages. It makes me happy that I don't have to memorize a bunch of rules as well as what breaks them.

fairywaif 01-08-2010 03:47 AM

see, I'm the opposite, I prefer languages to math. I like solving problems, but for some reason I hate math equations.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 03:49 AM

Oh, I like languages too! I need to brush up on my Japanese and take the second semester and I also should get back into studying Spanish. It'd be nice to learn Italian someday... ^_^

fairywaif 01-08-2010 03:53 AM

I know, I want to learn every language ever. But that's not going to happen! I'll just stick with Latin right now.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 03:56 AM

Latin's supposed to be really good to learn before jumping into the Romance languages like Spanish or French.

fairywaif 01-08-2010 03:58 AM

Yeah, plus it's in a lot of science things, which is what I plan to go into.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 03:59 AM

Oh yes, all the chemistry and biology names are in Latin or sometimes Greek, and since Greek is one of the root languages for English it's also a really good one to learn. I used to know a little Latin.

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:03 AM

I think the Latin I've learned is slowly slipping away, I just hope the useful parts stay!

Nanenna 01-08-2010 04:05 AM

Languages will do that, I can only remember a tiny little bit of Latin anymore. Not that I understood it at all back then... I didn't know what the word "conjugate" really meant as we only really have two in English: singular and plural. Then after taking yet another Spanish class I finally got a teacher who explained it in a way I understood (through a very thick Japanese accent...) and it all just clicked!

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:08 AM

Spanish from a teacher with a Japanese accent? Wow. Yeah, conjugating can be a little hard to grasp at first. I did my classes online through Florida Virtual School.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 04:11 AM

Yeah, this was a teacher where English was her third language, she should not have been teaching Spanish1 but the Spanish extion's head taught the later classes and well... spoke Spanish with a rather English accent. :/

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:13 AM

Yikes. Hopefully you don't have to ever speak Spanish, your accent would be terrible!

Nanenna 01-08-2010 04:15 AM

I've actually been told that I have a pretty good accent. Which is horrible because while I can say things I can't understand what other people say. ^^;

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:16 AM

Ah. I can usually figure out what other people are saying in Spanish, unless they talk too fast or use too many words that don't have latin roots or sound similar to the english.

Nanenna 01-08-2010 04:20 AM

My comprehension must be pretty low because I don't even have that. ^^;

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:22 AM

Huh. I think I have a natural gift for doing that though, and it runs in the family. Funny how that works.

YamiSora 01-08-2010 04:22 AM

ha ha back!

fairywaif 01-08-2010 04:32 AM

I'm glad you liked it. The concept seems a little weird to me though. Why would chipmunks go to high school?

YamiSora 01-08-2010 04:44 AM

...thats whats I thought, cause in the cartoons, they were in elementary school, but I think high school was used for the drama......way more drama in high school than elementary.....more options for stories in my opinion. ^^

Talentless_Muse 01-08-2010 04:54 AM

What's the point of questioning it? The whole premise is rather ridiculous to begin with.
