Advicenators discussion: School


Cux wrote Thursday August 16 2007, 11:43 pm:
Tell me how it goes =D.
LOL_x0x wrote Friday August 17 2007, 12:09 pm:
It went really well =]

I only got lost ONCE!

And I saw all my friends, which was really nice.
The teachers seem good.

My government teacher (the one class I'm dreading) likes me already cause I wrote the schedule on the board for him, even though It was lopsided=X

So all around, pretty good first day =]
Cux wrote Friday August 17 2007, 2:59 pm:
Sweet!


I was directing a tour of my school for the community- and I almost got lost- it was funny.
Some of my friends were in my group and so was my mom.

All the people in my group were like "You did such a good job! Thank you!" afterward. So I guess I did good =D.
LOL_x0x wrote Friday August 17 2007, 3:04 pm:
lol. Luckily though, our school's a big square with side hallways and stuff. So you can't get too lost.
Cux wrote Friday August 17 2007, 3:35 pm:
Ours is confusing, but really cool. =D
LOL_x0x wrote Friday August 17 2007, 3:40 pm:

I already have homework though =[
Matt wrote Friday August 17 2007, 3:53 pm:
I don't start until September 4th. HAH!
Erinn_the_bamf wrote Friday August 17 2007, 4:13 pm:
I start school the same day as Matt.

And it's easy to get lost in my school. I remember getting a tour one time and the tour guides were like SHIT WHERE ARE WE?
Cux wrote Friday August 17 2007, 4:25 pm:
Haha- I go back Sept 23rd.
LOL_x0x wrote Friday August 17 2007, 5:06 pm:
23rd?! That's over a month left!
I thought you all went back the 5th/5th.
Cux wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 10:06 am:
Haha- I know I was kidding I go back on the 4th.
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 10:42 am:
lol. My first full day is tommorow.

And I finished my homework =]
Cux wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 10:58 am:
Homework.


That word won't enter back into my vocabulary until Sept. 5th at 11pm after I start doing my first full day's worth of it.
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 11:01 am:
Nice.

I dislike math. It makes me mad.
MikeCFT wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 2:23 pm:
Back to school for me too soon. This summer just flew by.
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 2:55 pm:
It did =/
Cux wrote Sunday August 19 2007, 8:40 pm:
Hmm.. it kinda did. I mean- I probably spent 25% of my summer just on Advicenators alone =X.
ASAPcamille wrote Monday August 20 2007, 10:05 am:
I think I spent close to 45 percent:]
Cux wrote Monday August 20 2007, 12:56 pm:
so you were on around 12 hours EVERY day?
ASAPcamille wrote Monday August 20 2007, 2:22 pm:
35************.

wow camille.
LOL_x0x wrote Monday August 20 2007, 4:40 pm:
I spent a lot of time on here this summer, too.
We're just all that cool.
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday August 14 2008, 7:03 pm:
I go back to school tommorow and officially reached my summer goal! =]
teardrops7 wrote Saturday August 16 2008, 7:35 am:
nice! I was taking spanish but i am dropping it because the teacher is a nut job and she has a little vein in her neck that pops out.
S_C wrote Saturday August 16 2008, 10:09 am:
I start on August 26th.
But that entire week I can add/drop whatever classes I want.
=)

The joys of college.
I leave/move in on the 22nd though...
That's only Friday!! Yikes!
LOL_x0x wrote Saturday August 16 2008, 2:26 pm:
Wow. Good luck =]
teardrops7 wrote Saturday August 16 2008, 9:25 pm:
College! I would love to go to college.

teardrops7 wrote Sunday August 17 2008, 10:56 am:
OMG. A boy in my spanish class was killed by a train last night...
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday August 17 2008, 11:20 am:
I'm sorry =[
teardrops7 wrote Sunday August 17 2008, 3:06 pm:
oh its ok i didnt know him, just his name. If kids would stop playing on freaking train tracks people wouldnt be dying, i mean seriously. If you hear and see a train, run. And the worst part was it was not even half a mile away from my house
Cux wrote Monday August 18 2008, 12:57 am:
I'm sorry =/
teardrops7 wrote Monday August 18 2008, 4:40 pm:

I Dropped Spanish Yay!

I want it! ^
Cux wrote Monday August 18 2008, 6:04 pm:
Haha I'm taking Spanish 4 this year, but it's less grammar and vocab than last year. We're doing more history this year. Ugh.
S_C wrote Monday August 18 2008, 7:00 pm:
The shirt I used to want, they don't have anymore. =[

It was the one with all the writing, haha.
I liked it but can't find it!
LOL_x0x wrote Tuesday August 19 2008, 3:17 pm:
Haha =]
teardrops7 wrote Tuesday August 19 2008, 8:01 pm:
Well they dont offer french at my school because it is so small. Just spanish. And i absolutely suck at it. Haha
Cux wrote Tuesday August 19 2008, 8:41 pm:
They started phasing French out of my district this year. So they don't offer French 1 anymore. Next year there is no French 2. The year after there is no French 3. The year after that, no French 4 and then no AP French.

They've replaced it with Chinese.. Hmm. I don't see many people taking it.

We have Japanese, Spanish and German. All go from 1-AP, but Japanese only goes from 1-4.
LOL_x0x wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 3:38 pm:
WHAT?! How could they do that? French is such an amazing language.
teardrops7 wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 4:05 pm:
We have chinese too. About 3 kids to a class.
Cux wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 4:45 pm:
I know. I'm glad I joined Spanish back in 8th grade because French 3 and 4 are combined classes this year at my school because there are only three French 4 students. And German 3 and 4 are also combined, because there are only five German 4 students.

But I'm lucky because there are eighteen or so Spanish 4 students so we have our own class.
teardrops7 wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 6:34 pm:
Nice. I hate foriegn language. I have friends that are of the hispanic region, but honestly, i didnt go to their country. They came to mine. So why should i learn to speak their language? Now see if i were to go to their country it would be different.
LOL_x0x wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 7:28 pm:
My best friend is Mexican so watch what you're saying =P
Cux wrote Wednesday August 20 2008, 7:59 pm:
I actually disagree with you teardrops, sure they came here, and maybe they should learn a bit of English, but that doesn't mean you can say things like what you said.

Language barriers are hard to overcome. English is one of the hardest languages, other than Japanese, to learn.

I'm in Spanish class now, and even me as a 4.0 student who understands most things, I still struggle with learning their language.

Give them a break.
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday August 21 2008, 5:01 pm:
Good point, Jack.


And today I found out we have like 8 different Spanish classes. We only have 4 [and an AP] for French, 3 for Japanese, and I'm not sure about German.

And those are the only languages my school offers, and sign language which doesn't actually "count" as a foreign language.
Cux wrote Thursday August 21 2008, 5:07 pm:
They offer sign language? Awesome!
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday August 21 2008, 7:24 pm:
Yes! I might take it next year if I have room. But then again, I might take an extra science class or 2 instead ;]
Cux wrote Thursday August 21 2008, 9:16 pm:
Yeah next year I'm taking two science classes.
LOL_x0x wrote Friday August 22 2008, 3:52 pm:
If it were up to me, I'd take ALL science classes and french. haha.
LOL_x0x wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 5:14 pm:
This is the next topic we'll strive to fill, since we're talking about school anyways ;]
MikeCFT wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 5:15 pm:
Just wait till college.
LOL_x0x wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 5:37 pm:
*Dun dun dun*
Cux wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 6:41 pm:
I'll be taking mostly science in college.
teardrops7 wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 6:46 pm:
Oh dont get me wrong i love mexicans! I have a whole mexican family, i just find it really difficult.

And what are you majoring?? I love science! :]
LOL_x0x wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 7:06 pm:
I'll be taking science as well. haha.
Melody wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 7:11 pm:
We have Spanish 1-3, and you can take Spanish 4 independently.

It honestly sucks, because I only have to have 1 more foreign language to graduate with an Advanced Diploma, but I'm terrified of retaking Spanish 3. (I failed it the first time) I've done forgotten everything that I learned in Spanish class, so I just know I'd fail it again.

I'm thinking about taking French 1 next semester, but unfortunately it's over Fiber Optics, and I hate Fiber Optic classes. Anyways, how is it? Easier/harder than Spanish? Fun to learn?

Who knows what i'll do. *Sighhh..*
LOL_x0x wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 7:26 pm:
I've heard Spanish is a lot harder than French.

I've never really had trouble with French, but I've never taken Spanish.

I think it's a ton of fun to learn, too ;]
teardrops7 wrote Tuesday September 2 2008, 7:42 pm:
well its good that you have fun with it. Shoot i know this freshman and she is taking algebra 2 chemistry and knows 4 languages
Erinn_the_bamf wrote Wednesday September 3 2008, 3:03 pm:
In my school, rumor has it Spanish is harder than French.

But my French teacher is setting me up with the senior that's totally awesome, and I love her for doing this.
LOL_x0x wrote Wednesday September 3 2008, 4:27 pm:
My French teacher this year is pretty cool, too.

And she's SO dedicated to French, it kind of helps motivate me to take those extra 5 minutes I have in homeroom to look up a few new vocabulary words. haha =]
Erinn_the_bamf wrote Wednesday September 3 2008, 7:06 pm:
There's only one French teacher in my school. She's so crazy, but she's pretty much my third grandmother.
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday September 4 2008, 3:34 pm:
Haha. I love awesome teachers.
teardrops7 wrote Thursday September 4 2008, 5:31 pm:
Me too. :D
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday September 4 2008, 8:22 pm:
So when is everybody's homecoming?
Cux wrote Thursday September 4 2008, 9:51 pm:
October 18th.
teardrops7 wrote Friday September 5 2008, 4:15 pm:
im not sure, probably october after fall break. I have a game tonight.
Cux wrote Friday September 5 2008, 6:46 pm:
Fall break?

Dang I don't get one of those. My only break is Thanksgiving, that is, in fall.

Haha that was catchy!
LOL_x0x wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 10:37 am:
I love Discovery channel. lol.
Cux wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 10:57 am:
"We'll do it like they do on the Discovery Channel!"
LOL_x0x wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 11:10 am:
HAHA.
teardrops7 wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 12:53 pm:
Lol.

Yeah we get a whole week for fall break and the other schools in the district get two... My little brother only gets 2 days at the one he goes to for thanksgiving.
LOL_x0x wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 3:50 pm:
We only have a few days off for Thanksgiving, and then a nice long winter break =]
teardrops7 wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 5:40 pm:
How long is your guys' winter break??

Mine is only like a week. And we NEVER have snow days. Just like our motto "In school on time, every single freakin day." =X
LOL_x0x wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 7:54 pm:
2 weeks, and we usually have 1-3 snow days every year.
Cux wrote Saturday September 6 2008, 7:59 pm:
My winter break, though I prefer to call it Christmas break, is usually 16 days. But this year I only have 13 days off >=O.

I get from December 20-January 2.

But in November, we get the 26, 27 and 28th off for Thanksgiving, which is Wed-Fri.

And we get a curriculum day off on November 4th.


Ew and in March, I have to take the Michigan Merit Exam for 3 days. The rest of the school gets the days off while the juniors take the MEAP, ACT and the Merit Exam. Yuck.
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 9:54 am:
I don't know what tests I take this year besides ACT.

But I know sophomores take something called the PLAN test, which is a lame excuse to test them of things half of them have yet to learn.
teardrops7 wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 10:30 am:
My little brother said a few days ago "Hayley, I am going to go to Harvard."

He has got everything going and i am still in the fog.
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 10:32 am:
I told 2 of my friends I was going to Harvard a few nights ago! They freaked out and told me I couldn't leave them and go to a hue school or something. haha.


How old is your younger brother?
teardrops7 wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 12:58 pm:
He is only 12 but man her has always dreamed of going to Harvard. Ever since he was like 4. He wants to be a judge. I told him he might want to start selling all his game systems haha
LOL_x0x wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 1:41 pm:
That's so cute. Tell that kid to keep dreaming!

One of my brothers is 12, too, and he won't even read a book without out having a bribe him. lol.
teardrops7 wrote Sunday September 7 2008, 3:37 pm:

Cux wrote Wednesday September 10 2008, 7:42 pm:
Well like EVERY site is blocked unless it's educational, but since Advicenators probably isn't recognized as a "popular" site, it isn't blocked.
teardrops7 wrote Wednesday September 10 2008, 9:26 pm:
well like my computers at school is like,, ok well they block out everything that has like forums and stuff... but my friend did get on myspace by hacking into the computer which sucked

Are you promoting ignorance?
LOL_x0x wrote Thursday September 11 2008, 3:08 pm:
Yes, this is blocked at school because of the forum use.


Teardrops- don't diss science, it's my favorite.
teardrops7 wrote Thursday September 11 2008, 4:44 pm:
i like science too but i just think they dont need to be causing a bombs creating black holes.
Cux wrote Thursday September 11 2008, 6:03 pm:
We talked about this in my physics class last week, and it probably won't start a black hole.

They're just trying to find out about the universe.
teardrops7 wrote Thursday September 11 2008, 8:34 pm:
I just looked it up and found that. I didnt see the whole not causing a black hole thing, thats just what i heard...
