actually his post count meanders along, i think it's just cause it's such a large number that it seems to jump along ....

Or maybe he's using magic?

Random thoughts: Why does time fly when you're having fun and why do you get so sleepy in the middle of class?

because you are sitting still and not using your muscles, your whole body slows down and you can fall asleep .... if you jump around in the middle of class, this won't happen

I hear that. I just got out of Secured Transactions, so this is now the happiest part of my week.

Congratulations!

No Equities class?

That's Monday.

didn't you have a test or something on today winterfate?? if so how'd it go?

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 04:50

Yesterday AND today actually...and tomorrow

:

Yesterday: English
Today: Spanish
Tomorrow: Precalculus II

And those two tests went a LOT better than I thought they would...keeping my fingers crossed.

I know the material for the test, but math tests make me jittery...

At least you got it out of the way...for this week.

The same thing happens to me with my Biology Lab.

well good that two are down .... is precalculus the final test? good luck for it by the way

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 05:35

Yes! After that, I have classes on Friday, but no tests

good luck for it by the way

Thanks, stefan. I think I'll be needing it

I always disliked maths tests, but have to say that I did relatively well on them, at least til I hit university maths .... that sucked!

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 05:37

Ouch. University maths can be pure torture

ya, the differentials were a killer and I always had trouble visualising vectors in n dimensions

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 06:19

That sounds like calculus...I'm not there yet

.

My next interview is ready over at my news thread!

asandir · Unread postby **asandir** » 08 Mar 2007, 06:27

don't look forward to it, unless your are mathman!

I disliked that intensely

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 06:30

Well, I'm good at math, but I hate it...

People don't understand how I can get good grades in a class I hate

natural ability perhaps, it's certainly no guarantee that you'll enjoy anything

winterfate · Unread postby **winterfate** » 08 Mar 2007, 06:34

Precisely!

My favorite class this semester is Biology. Well that, and English. English as a second language is so easy

.

asandir · Unread postby **asandir** » 08 Mar 2007, 06:49

I find it easy too, but English here is actually more about the origins of the language and reading books, and then writing analysis etc of them

I had always heard that English was rather difficult because it 'borrows' so many things from so many other languages. As in our rather strange ways of spelling things. It has far to many 'exceptions' to every rule. Unlike Spanish where every letter is always pronounced the same, regaurdless... or Italian where EVERY vowel is pronunced.

ie a woman from a neighboring township called Monte Eagle went on a speaking enagement in Italy. They introduced her as being from "Mon-Tay Ee-Ah-Glay." *giggle*
