Title: General school and work thread
Post by: monkey.wesley on Nov 21, 2007, 5:12 PM
Well... just interested... for students... what courses are you taking this year? And what do you like about school.

For the older guys... what's your job and what do you love about it?

This thread is just out of interest and please... no badmouthing about teachers or professors or anything... but feel free to share a funny moment at school or work. :)

I'll start off... This year I'm taking:
(Advanced) Mathematics 40S
English 30S
History 30S
Music 30S - I play clarinet... but originally play saxophone. :)
Jazz Band 30S (extracurricular) I play keyboard and alto saxophone. :)
AP Physics 32S
AP Chemistry 32S
AP Biology 32S

As you can tell... I'm into sciences. :) It's just interesting... especially chemistry. I'm in grade 11 by the way.

Yeah... really busy... AP Bio teacher just gave us 3 major assignments to do within the next week. Construct a cell membrane model, 2-page essay on membrane structure/function, and an enzyme lab.

It's been tough lately... haven't been handing homework in on time and not enough sleep! >.<

But I take it as a challenge for me. So... School's all good. Anyways... I can't wait until mid-April! I'll be eligible for my road test for my Intermediate license... and I can sleep in on days when I have a period 1 spare and then drive to school by myself for period 2. :)

@rapzeh: Haha... not even one thing you like about school?
@CF: Oh wow... nice... I get 3 weeks of Christmas holidays this year and my birthday's coming up. :D

I'm teacher. I love when "my guys" learn a lot, when he study and i can say you passed the exam.
I always do jokes when i teach, because i think teaching and learning with a smile is more friendly.

yes definitely... I wonder what it would be like to have you as my teacher... What subjects do you cover?

Anyway my most recent school activity was a Day Camp, which I had to attend because I failed a subject in the overall year's performance... Those who fail 2 or more have to attend Concentration Camp (Con Camp), which runs from 0730 to 2130... Day camp is 0730 to 1330... After the Camps are over (2 weeks, held concurrently), everybody has to sit for a re-exam for the subjects they failed... The results are coming out on 28th, but I think I'll pass this one...
