#the teacher was completely fine with this

[dreamsy990]

on the first day of school one time one of my teachers was asking the class to share all their opinions as like a get to know each other thing and one was 'is cheating okay' and apparently my opinion on this. did not align with almost anyone else (that couldve just been because they didnt want to admit it in class) so i am asking the people. to be clear when i say grade school i mean from grades 1-12. This is NOT about anything past that.

#personally! yes i do think it is okay to cheat!!!! #im fine with admitting ive cheated before #i think everyone has at some point #dont get me wrong i think school is important #obviously learn the material know what youre doing etc etc #but i think the actual class is way more important than test grades #i think my latin teacher has the right idea honestly #he completely cut out test grades from his class. he doesnt give tests he doesnt really give homework #your grade depends entirely on the amount of effort you put in #its learning for the sake of learning instead of memorizing things for a test #and i have learned just about as much latin from 2 months of classes with that teacher as i did in the couple years of spanish i took #i think the way tests in schools work is fundamentally flawed honestly. it works in theory but thats about it #okay im gonna stop now but. im curious!!

OKAY WAIT CAMILLA IS A VET. VET ADJACENT? point is she absolUTELY knows how to handle feral/spicy kittens (mama cat 'brrp? brrrrrp?' noise bluescreens most spicy babies and makes em amenable to attention) and she is NOT (maybe?) above using that shortcut on Spicy Witches, As Needed

CAMILA JUST GOES "MRRRP" TO HUNTER AND AMITY AND IT WORKS?????

#THAT'S SO FUNNY. SURE WHY NOT. #i like the idea that she does it completely without thinking the first time #like when preschool teachers forget to turn off preschool mode. but the vet version #and then she's like well okay. fine. witches are cats i guess. #toh #princess luz au #replies #camila noceda #hunter toh #amity blight

haateeee that in high school science classes they dont introduce you to like. the greek alphabet. bc i just found out (2 days before the exam) that ive been writing phi when i shouldve been writing ro in a formula. like. my contact w the greek alphabet is none. they just expect us to know these things bro😭

#im completely fine w using the greek alphabet in formulas. the language nerd in me loves it. but im not enough of a language nerd #to double check formulas and what the teachers say tbh #anyways like its not /that/ much of a big deal i guess. but it IS. TO ME #at the same time tho. it is bc i can easily confuse (and i have) pressure (ro) with other variables (for now i use phi (that i know of) #in electricity. so im safe from confusing it w pressure) #but id been writing the formula w ro and everything......😭 #anyways please bring back latin and ancient greek as mandatory classes for sciences. AT LEAST the biology sciences #would be nice for technology sciences too (in high school) but i think #that most that most eng degrees (except for mine and maybe forestry which are more bio oriented) dont use that much latin and greek #EITHER WAY tho it wouldve been cool to know at least the basics... do u know how much knowing latin helps in botany (a class which ive had) #like my mom that know both latin and botany just tells me 'yeah this plant is called 'whatever alba' bc its white #LIKE I JUST WANT THE BASICS!!!!! #z xarre

[sauntering-down]

i kinda miss workbooks.

#yes i know this is a completely unhinged thing to say. it's fine. i'm fine #but i had a dream last night where i was in school and we were supposed to do a workbook page for homework #and (as in real life) i'd completely forgotten about it and was panicking #fortunately the teacher didn't actually check mine #but i remember flipping through the pages (of this weirdly religious workbook) and thinking it'd be so nice to have them all filled out #and then i'd get an A in school (actually normal to want and possible to achieve) #idk idk i'm. fine

Cried over an English test but hey I'm alive

#very pissed at the teacher #i wasn't there the day of the test but i was there when they were handed back #so i got to take a look at the format and it was pretty simple #describe each literary device listed and give an example #so i thought i would be doing that. i could do that #but i show up today and the test he gives me is completely different #it says to identify the literary device in each sentence. the thing is #EVERY SINGLE ONE HAS MULTIPLE OF THE OPTIONS #so i asked the teacher and he said “yeah but they all have one that's the most correct just trust your instincts” #AND IM JUST SITTING THERE LIKE HELLO?????? “MOST CORRECT”???????? #NONE OF THEM ARE MORE CORRECT THAN THE OTHERS #and i told him this!!!! and he said “just pick the most obvious one and don't second guess yourself” #OKAY WELL HAVE YOU CONSIDERED THAT WHAT IS IMMEDIATELY MOST OBVIOUS TO YOU IS NOT NECESSARILY THE SAME FOR ME #AND THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME WRONG??????????? #FUCKING HELL #LEARN TO. IDEK. LEARN SOME COMMON SENSE DUDE #my reaction must have been pretty extreme bc the girl next to me was like “hey you'll do fine” and asked how i was doing a few times #appreciate you girlie you're a real one #so yeah i cried two or three times BUT did not let the tears leave my eyes #one point with just out of frustration bc the teacher said something wrong. and then later he corrected himself #and even though it was easier after that i still cried bc i was losing my mind #anyway i normally like this teacher but this was fucking stupid #everyone stop whatever you're doing and only pay attention to me #ann rants

I'm trying my best not to let my timer anxiety (I hate timed situations/countdowns/etc and have since I was a kid) color my Majora's Mask experience but I would not be getting through this game without a walkthrough and I do want to personally strangle the guy who thought it'd be a good idea to repackage the concept of "doing a task on a time limit" as a video game for kids even though I'm very aware that my experiences are not universal.

#hey parents if your kid is ever in the gifted and talented class for the first time #or even if they're not but I know I never had this problem with my regular teachers #and your kids teacher ever tells you ''hey your kid understands the material just fine but they're not completing their tests fast enough'' #''use an egg timer to time their homework and teach them time management'' #don't fucking listen #my parents stopped after they saw how much fucking anxiety I was developing over #you know #the concept of an egg timer #not something that seven year olds normally freak out about #they let me pull out of the gt class and go back to regular classes and guess who was never told that I wasn't #finishing tests and coursework fast enough ever again #in my experience ap classes were just the same material but with more essay questions #but gt classes were the fucking worst

Ye boiiiii, got my Japanese grade for last semester and it's a 5, woooooo

#wish I could say we're going for straight 5s but nah one of the two English grades I got is a 4.5 #(and yes it's thanks to my least favourite teacher lol) #anyways #I checked USOS and the Egypt class has the right ECTS count #sooooo presumably I'm fine #though I already know that they'll call me to ask about why I only took two electives this semester #because the electives are never 10 ECTS #so the secretary will get confused #I already know it'll happen #since they always call /me/ whenever there's an issue like that #sigh #anyways since that grade's in I just have to turn in my thesis chapter and then I'll have all the grades #(easier said than done) #(considering I feel completely stuck when it comes to writing)

my lukeophobia has reached a peak

I love writing him as those subtle creeps who ARE hot and charming and seem really great on the outside— he’s not an incel, he’s smart, and he’d call himself a feminist which makes him and his manipulation SO MUCH MORE INSIDIOUS

#morgan murmurs #anon #ask #aoyaom #I love Luke as a complex villain but #I also like writing him as a horrible person #and he GENUINELY BELIVES he’s doing fine things #and he also believes Annabeth is not traumatized by their relationship and they’re good together #and now it’s fine because he’s not her teacher and it’s slightly more acceptable in socialety even if he’s her boss #fine from HIS perspective and half of society that is #and he isn’t completely oblivious to Annabeth’s discomfort #but he’s the kind of guy to write that off as temporary jitters #they were together before #so why wouldn’t she feel the same about him now? #wow this is a lot more tags than I planned on #this has been a look inside the thought process of Luke Castellan #interim Dean and absolute prick #aoyaom Luke

I love the idea that Chrollo goes through a dram book you have and reads all your dreams- from good ones to weird to bad ones

Bc I had a dream: me and a group of friends was at a food court and they decided to make me order for them bc I’m “mom” and so I go up to this place and I try to order and the cashier-

Cashier: you like the hooba, doopa, bluba, boopa, soopa

Me: 👁️👄👁️ sure??

Cashier: ok the wooper, twoobter, hoober, snoober

Me:…the whooba cares??

Cashier: oh the special with the qoobrr bloop blooper

Me: uh hooba toopa coolpa

Casier: tooba wooba boob beep beep

At this point we were saying whatever this is and slowly we both spun around and some reason I spun so quick I ended up spinning to a different universe where everyone was a care bear character

And then watch Chrollo try to desepct and analyze these dreams

Dreams are weird. Once I had a dream where I was being hunted by demidogs in my neighbourhood and when I was finally eaten alive, I raised my head up in class to my math teacher scolding me for already knowing a topic. It's safe to say I woke up in cold sweat

#I got bored one fine weekend evening (i didnt want to study thermodynamics) so i just studied hypothesis testing from my stats book #he didnt even start stats at that time we were still on the pure math topicsand i had already self studied the entire stats syllabus becaus #i was afraid we might not be able to complete the syllabus by end of april (exams started 3rd may) #so i was speeding through stuff #at least speeding allowed me to solve the hypothesis testing question in the mock exam thats why i had this dream #i was afraid my teacher might take offence that i studied it myself ;-; #zuri lore ig #moonie anon #dont know what was up with the demidogs tho

gun to my head i could not tell you what grade i have in this class

#im so ready to be done with it though lol i actually cant believe i made it this far. like 3 years ago i would have just given up almost #immediately #i havent got any grade thats above or below the b range i think. which is crazy bc some of them........ should be below. i think! #but whatever. im just assuming i have some kind of a B thats fine w me..... #the most frustrating thing abt this grading scale is not even that. it doesnt make sense. its the fact that at the beginning of the semeste #he told us that he barely gives out any a's on assignments like ever unless u are showing complete mastery . like professional level. #girl its a 1000 level class..... #like that is so dumb to me. also hes straight up not a good teacher. how am i supposed to become a master in one semester with you as my #teacher. and he is so unclear abt his grading expectations so even if i WAS a perspective drawing master i would probably still get points #off for like professionalism or smth for not formatting it exactly how he wants it #WHATEVER though i have one more assignment and then im done with this class forever and ever and ever amen yippee hooray!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dreamerlynx]

i am so powerful (<— mustered the sheer willpower necessary to make myself. read an email)

#as is always the case: haha it was completely fine and there was nothing to worry about LMAO #i am so normal about emails I promise 👍👍👍 #anyway my teacher is rly nice she’s cool. Will in fact be responding tomorrow tho idk I need to think about what to say and such #I sent her the initial email last night and avoided looking all of today til now so it’s fiiine that’s not so long

[yip-yip]

little panic in the tags

#im like in a completely fine financial position #like full time aussie teacher salary for the past 5 years #and ive been putting so much effort into saving really well #but im still so panicky about money #will i ever have enough to buy a house that i love #will i be able to retire #its like bro i didnt realise being single was such a limiting financial investment #anyway i just constantly feel like i need more money #which feels so gross to say #idk maybe its just because ive been saving for so long #and still not close to savings goals #which makes sense when theyre like 10 year goals #so it just feels like im not making progress #i also CANNOT talk to friends about this lol #im the only one with a full time job and actually saving money #so its that awkward situation of pent up anxiety #hence the tumblr rant i guess lol #anyway we should be paying teachers more

[thedandelionthief]

AAAAAA

#my really close friend who i always related to a lot when it comes to school struggles seems to be doing completely fine this year so far #meanwhile i’m a week in and already struggling #just great #it isn’t even just school but yaknow. also my algebra teacher ran out of time to teach so idk what the hells going on #but i still have a 20 question assignment #that i haven’t started on #and it’s almost 8 pm #i hate this #ramblings&such

tbh i don’t believe ppl who say they shave bc leg hair gives them sensory issues or whatever bc *i* actually get sensory issues from shaving so like. what is the truth.

#obviously my experiences are universal (slash ess) #but literally i quit shaving my legs permanently after having a meltdown abt not being able to get it complete/perfect/symmetrical #continued to shave my armpits until i finished high school bc i was in dance and i did get a little insecure onstage #but more than that i was afraid my teachers would make me shave. i was already pushing it w my haircut lmao #(i didn’t do any intensive classes or competition it probably would’ve been fine but. the owner was mean #i barely interacted with her but i was afraid she’d single me out) #ANYWAY shaving my armpits def was worse for my sensory issues #like they’re a little uncomfortable sometimes snow but never as bad as when the hair was stubbly and growing back out #i also have upper lip hair that i’ve never done anything about <3 #that’s the only thing i’d actually consider removing but idk how i would #that’s one of those things where i always felt like everybody else knew something i didn’t #like i’m i’m not supposed to have a mustache but how is everybody else getting rid of it that they’re not telling me. #i’m aware of different ways but i don’t want to do that Wrong One #that’s not the issue now so much as i don’t want to learn to shave my face and don’t want it to grow back more visible (i know it doesn’t #grow back thicker but if it was stubbly it would be noticeable.) #i also have a unibrow and i love her <3 #r.txt

Just saw a tweet about a pregnant lady always going to the same McDonalds to satisfy her pregnancy cravings at about the same time each day, thus ending up interacting with the same cashier each time, then eventually taking the baby there to show them to the cashier, and it reminded me of an experience I had, but like flipped around.

So I went and studied Japanese at a language school in Tokyo for like 10 weeks once upon a time (after studying it in college for idk a year?), and when I came back, I continued working at the same cafe I’d been working at before I left. This pregnant Japanese lady and her American husband would come in when I was working, usually about the same time on the same day, and always order the same drinks (she always got decaf since she was pregnant). I’d hear them speaking Japanese to each other, but was always too shy to ever say anything in Japanese to them because I felt like I didn’t know enough. Fast-forward several months, and one day, they came in and mentioned that she was almost due.

Very soon after that, I was working as usual, and this very happy elderly Japanese lady walked in. She didn’t know a lot of English, and she had a paper with some very familiar coffee orders on them. I finally mustered up the courage to speak Japanese to a native speaker, and asked her if the baby had been born. She looked shocked, but in a very happy and delighted way, and said it had been.

Fast forward a bit later, and the couple came back in with their baby and then expressed their surprise that I knew Japanese, and said that her mother and felt very happy that somebody had spoken Japanese to her.

#That's all #personal #did I ever speak Japanese to the couple? #I think....probably not lmfaooooo #like I really didn't know that much #I guess I could do basic conversation? #okay maybe a little higher than basic conversation #but like....it was heavily dependent upon the subject being discussed #kind of like my Korean now #am I fluent? #my TOPIK score would say yes #my ability to discuss or not discuss certain things tells me no #there is no objective viewpoint #I'm fluent in some ways and not in other #I can have complete conversations for like a few hours and be fine #and then somebody asks me a question about something else and I'm like ????? #like a kid at work asks me a questions and I'm like #shrug emoji #ask your homeroom teacher
