2 hours a day for 5 days isn't time consuming.

Yeah, but I was hoping to just take the test and be done with it.

 

I don't need to do 12 chapters of LOLLL DUNT DO DRUGZ AND EKSERSIZE

Is that 10 hours to actually do all the work or 10 hours to study? Because if it's that easy you should just do the homework without studying and google anything you're not sure about on another comp.

10 hours to do all the work.

 

The work is:

 

go through and take meticulous notes about everything. Not too bad, but the notes have to formatted really stupidly, and you need a page number after every bullet, every subsection, every header (even though they're all on the same page).

 

Then you have to do the chapter review, as well as the review in between sections.

 

Then take Cornell notes on a powerpoint of the chapter, AFTER we just took regular notes on the exact same [bleep]ing chapter.

 

Then write a reflection about what you learned. I just hate this, because the test is supposed to already show what I learned.

 

Rinse and repeat for 12 chapters.

 

All I'm "learning" from this book is literally 'eat right, exercise, condom'

And that's why I took advanced classes, more word but faaaaar less tedious (Never had to do Cornell notes ftw). Good luck though, it'll make the summer all the sweeter when it's all over.

I'd love to do that, but I have no room for health in my schedule, and it's required for graduation.

It's kinda funny. Last year Texas dropped health from being a requirement to graduate. Of course this was during my junior year and everyone in my class already wasted half a year instead of doing something they might have actually wanted to do.

What the hell are Cornell notes?

Basically it's writing down notes from a chapter in a very specific format, so instead of doing it the way that comes naturally to you everyone does it the exact same tedious way (Also allows the teacher to grade your out-of-classroom notes, which shouldn't be mandatory imo).

Why are you in summer school?

I'd love to do that, but I have no room for health in my schedule, and it's required for graduation.

When someone leads me on. It could be them trying to make me think they want to be friends or that they're into me when they're really not. In the end it makes me feel worse than if they just outright rejected me.

Come support my max total goal here.

 

Briobe122's 10-step guide to staking:

1. Get cleaned

2. Vow to never stake ever again! (very important)

3. welfare tds and get claws

4. kill glacors til i get boots

5. bandos ffa or more tds til i have around 50m

6. realize that it is far too hard to rebuild using steps 3, 4, and 5

7. give up the vow to never stake again

8. go back staking and make your bank back

9. if you failed at step #8, Go back to step #1

10. if you succeed at step #8, you will eventually feel the need to make money for rich people stuff, have a bad day of staking, then get cleaned anyways

Pain is just weakness leaving the body.

online summer school.

 

I thought it was going to be easy but it's so time-consuming. It'll take ~10 hours to finish the course + I need to take a final exam at the school. Still, better than going to school for 6 hours a day for 3 weeks.

 

Last year, they didn't even collect homework; this year we actually have to submit it online....balls.

Count your lucky stars you only have one semester long class to do. I have five. <_<

Basically: fold the left margin of the paper in a bit (enough to write).

On the left side of the paper you write a question you have about the notes or something before reading or during.

On the right side you answer your own question.

 

 

I had to do that in middle school, it was hell. Pointless hell.

What the hell are Cornell notes?

 

Word for word, that was the first thought that came to me after reading all that.

Likewise. We never had to write notes a certain way, just however we felt helped us best. Grade 12, I didn't write notes at all.

 

On that subject and on topic, too, the few teachers I had that DID give marks for your notes. One of them was in that grade 12 year... for 2 courses. Needless to say, she didn't like my work ethic.

It's single-handedly the most pointless note scheme ever devised. It took me arguing that my grades were fine without those damn things and they're the sole reason my grades were falling for them to drop the scheme when I showed that in practice it's absolutely useless. If I wanted to do something as tedious as this, I'd rather go watch Gundam Wing.

I was going to eat hot dogs for dinner tonight. I think I will settle for cereal.

Amen to that (topic of Cornell notes)

 

 

You know the big, loud error sound Windows does (least on the XP)? That bugs me; it sounds like I did a most terrible omen, like kill Jesus, when the program's already running in another window.

I don't get why teachers mark notes. I mean, some of my teachers took in notes for bonus marks, but really notes differ from person to person.

 

My notes are hardly useful to anyone but myself, because of the way I organise things, and how I don't like to write most of the stuff down :lol:
