Random Thoughts X (The 9th Regeneration)

Yesterday the oldest was having a snap chat conversation with. Classmate (boy). She had snapped him a pic of her schedule which included honors science but just "regular" 9th grade math (Algebra). He said something along the lines of, "You are good at everything except math". I think she would have liked to have shown him how good she was at clocking boys. ;) She could have taken Algebra last year, like I said she chose not to. She takes after me. And the only college math class I took was Stat 101.

If anything, our school goes overboard on study halls. Freshmen are somewhat limited to what they can take because of prerequisites for certain classes. So she starts the day with a study hall/extended learning program depending on if it is a red or black day, then they have a 25min "success center" every day where thy can reach out to individual teachers with questions, and then she has another study hall 8th period opposite PE depending on whether it is a red or black day. All that extra time is the only reason we did both school volleyball and club softball this fall. Lots of people say there is hardly any homework your freshman year.


I think a study hall is fine. (I had 3 or 4 my senior year due to transferring credits from my old one). This no study hall rule is bad, IMO.
 
Thanks, but I notice my spelling blows also Meant to say conversations, not conversions. Must have been in math mode.


Also, our dishwasher got repaired tuesday. After 6 weeks of washing dishes by hand, no more needed. Yeah!!! Now kick to the groin, our washing machine stopped working. They will be here on the first. Well..........guess we are going to moms house to wash clothes.
Hopefully it's better than our dryer debacle.

Scheduled and waited for dryer service.
Service arrives. They needed to order a part.

Seriously, I think the only time I was ever in Nevada was to bail a buddy out of jail. Buddy was charged with drunk driving after a car chase and wreck. Not his car. He was not driving. Charges were dropped later. His actual crime was being stupid enough to be in the car with the other idiot who became an ex-friend of mine because he was dangerously crazy. I actually thought the crazy **** might kill me one evening. An incident I am not willing to share details on. His wife was scared as hell, that much I'll share. Dude was ******* insane.

I think I was in Nevada once for pizza. Did Nevada have a good pizza place 25-30 years ago?

You appear to be crazy beacon, regardless of gender.
 
It's Diff Eq. not Diffy Q
Exactly. I thought it was a little easier than Calc 3, though I did have a good prof for both. One of my buddies was really doing poorly in Calc 3, so I had him change profs to mine -- he got his engineering degree.

One day this month while using youtube for music; there was an ad about an over educated society with limited resources. Every so often a test would determine who was taken away. Trailer made it seem like they were culled. So, these teenagers start rebelling due to noticing that the tests are sometimes rigged.

I don't remember if it was for a movie or tv series.
