Not meaning to disrespect the teachers...but Mrs. Rathbun kinda sounds like Mr. Rosenoff. He gets angry very, very easily too. Is she rather...excitable...inclass?
Chemistry! Physics! *dances*

Mrs. Rathbun doesn't exactly get angry... she just picks a few kids in the class and decides that she doesn't like them. It's completely random, and we don't get it... I mean... I'll do almost anything to make a teacher happy... without them knowing that I'm doing it to make them happy. =P Ever since day one with Mrs. Rathbun... she's hated me. I don't get it. Yeah, she's pretty excitable in class. I think she has something against our class in general. *grumble* v_v
I'm not too hot on Physics... but... Chemistry... YAY!! *also dances*

Yikes. Mr. Rosenoff tends to lean toward that habit, but he doesn't pick on "the chosen" that regularly. But most of us think he should loosen up a bit. He bans smileys, frowns(or yells) at jokes, and constantly adopts the "I'm threatening you tone".
...I think we should talk about something else. >_<

Yeah. We aren't allowed to have *any* rabbit-trails.
>_> I concur. This is slightly depressing.
What was your favorite module? Mine was module 5. All Chemistry, baby!!
I hated module 4... fungi... *blech* It was really annoying. Although... I really hate module 14, too... >_> I liked all the stuff about leaves and stuff... but... too many details!! *brain overload*

Oh yes, Module 5 was lovely. I didn't like the modules about genetics, though. Maybe they were better than some of the other modules(I mean, I really disliked the modules with the dissections), but genetics just doesn't agree with me. They're so easy and yet hard at the same time. Mostly, it's boring.

Yeah, you're right. Genetics is boring. But I found it really, really easy. That's why I liked it. *koff*
Blah. I'm going to take the module 14 test in a couple of minutes... seriously, there's too many details... and I know that Mrs. R is going to spring some really annoying essay questions on us... >_< Oh well. You win some, you lose some. Only it seems like I just lose some. -__-
My mom's cat just scratched me on the nose. 'Twas my fault, but... it stings. v_v

Ugh. Well, hope you do well on the test. Essay questions are always annoying.  What I dislike most about Module 14 is having to remember all those leaf mosaics and vein patterns... what's the point? I don't think all that information is too useful unless you're planning to be a botanist or something of the sort. Oh well. But I still found the experiment for this chapter fun...much more fun compared to a lot of other experiments I did through the year. |

Yeah, Experiment 14.2 was fun. I liked it. ^_^
Thanks... yeah, essay questions suck. >_< We always have five of them. Blarg.
I actually liked all the stuff about the leaves... >_> Yeah, 'twas pretty pointless... and useless... but I find it easy and fun. Haha... now I do it to every leaf I see... "Say, that leaf's venation is palmate!!" *koff*

You're right about essay questions...but the worst test questions are those "identify the body parts and write what function they perform"...or worse yet, "In what order do these reproductive processes occur?" I remember I did pretty badly on that one.  |

Yeah... >_< And the whole thing about the asexual reproduction of cells... haha, I totally screwed the order up with that. =P
Ugh. I hate these "True or False" questions. They seem to be tricking me. >_> Like... this one... "A potato is a actually the root of the plant which has stored food for the winter."
Well... I know a potato is a root... but storing food for winter...? Eh? I didn't know that. v_v Is it true... or not? Ugh.

Yeah. And a lot of them turn out to be trick questions.
By the way, do you use the Apologia Online website for your tests/homework submission?

Yup, that potato one was a trick question.
Guess what, Mrs. Rathbun?? I DIDN'T FALL FOR IT!
Ha. *koff*
Yeah, I use the Apologia site. ^_^

Yay! Go Hataru! I think I fell for that one when I took the test, though. eek. I need to read questions more carefully. Anyway, congrats! Hope you scored well. The Apologia site is intimidating. When I first saw it, I was kind of disappointed.  Ack, my brain is refusing to function. I think I need to get some sleep... or caffeine. *goes off to dining room* Be right back. |

Hehe, thanks. ^_^ I almost said "True"... but I'm a skeptic that way.
If you exclude the essay questions, I only missed one... but I don't know how I did on the essay questions yet. *sigh*
The Apologia site is really... plain. But it works. Oh, I actually submit my homework on TPS... but I take my tests on the Apologia site.
I think I need to... write... or something. >_> Something to kick my brain into motion.
