Here are my reasons:
- I hate my Biology teacher who is the most annoying and biased teacher ever. He is more than evil. I am not really interested in going back to his classroom. I so hate him that I actually hate Biology itself now. :\ In a way, he's actually funny due to that. Come on, don't you rememeber how many times we made him sick of us? xD - Business is a very HUGE subject. I am so afraid of combining what I am going to learn with what I already learnt. Since it is IGCSE, both the courses are going to be together. Last year, our exam paper was like 20 thing pages. I wonder if it is going to be in forties this time or even fifties. Yes, it is a huge subject, and yes, the exam paper was pretty long. But do remind me: what grade did you take on it in the end? You took an A! - All the elder students said that Physics is the hardest subject. Although I like it, I know that it is going to be really really hard, especially from last year's experience. Study and do your best, and whatever happens then is not your mistake. - I also don't want to go back to the boring Arabic class, nor English Literature.. :\ Okay, maybe Arabic class is a bit boring, but English Literature classes are chaotically fun! You know what I mean So basically I am afraid of the upcoming year. I am only excited to continue studying Chemistry. |
I didn't even get my paper. I still pissed off because of that. I will remind you during Arabic classes that I warned you of them. We are going to sleep in them as usual. I also wonder if Morton is still there. If he is still not dead, then there will be another chaotic year, but honestly, we are starting a new Shakespearean play, and we must not be chaotic at all.
My school just got really strict with electronic devices. Starting this year, we aren't allowed to have them on us. Last year, we could have them out at lunch, but they just changed it, because we have two lunch periods, so people were abusing that. If it's seen, it gets confiscated, and a parent/guardian has to come pick it up. It's gonna kill me...
If a cellphone goes off in class it's confiscated. Last year not all our teachers were by-the-book. My algebra teacher had this jar that he would fill with quarters obtained by his students, and he would get quarters off of them if they needed to use the restroom/got their phone/iPod/etc. taken away he would give them back. (The quarters were donated to a cancer research fund every semester. Last year he got like $80 dollars a semester.)
Our gym coaches would take our iPods unless it was Friday, in which case we could listen to music during routines, and we couldn't get them back unless our parents came to the school and picked it up.
My science teacher was pretty flexible about music but phones were taken away if seen. When she left for maternity leave the substitute would let me and my friends play our DS/DSi's during class, but wouldn't let anyone else use their phones and stuff. (We were the only productive kids in the class, so she decided we could play video games during class. Our seats were right in front of her desk and she didn't mind us using our iPods or games)
Our art teacher didn't mind electronics but I couldn't play video games in his class.
In Spanish, we could only use iPods after a test or something but otherwise they were taken away.
In English, our teacher would take away phones and give them back after class, but tell us to put away our iPods if he saw them.

In chemistry one kid answered their phone when someone called them.

That is nothing in front of my class. In Chemistry, one boy had his phone hidden. Somehow, he had the number of our Chemistry teacher. He continuously called the teacher and then switched off. The teacher was annoyed and couldn't continue teaching. Our class was disrupted and we started laughing. He never knew who phoned him! XD Man, that teacher got kicked away. He was never liked, and was always made fun of.

I figured out the perfect way to let your cell phone ring in class without getting caught: use the sound of a beeping electric watch as a ring-tone, then people will assume it's just an electric watch.

I remember that in Grade 7 or 6, I hate my Social Studies teacher. She was mean. I never liked her, as she always thought she is beautiful and she wasn't, at all. She was so proud of herself for nothing. So anyway, I settled my watch to ring every 5 minutes, and other students settled theirs as well. Every minute, a watch starts ringing, and so on. She went mad and she never knew who was doing it. One boy got caught and was punished.

I guess that's no better than me playing my DS in Science class really...

This year when Heart Gold came out at the end of the day I would sneak into the locker room so I could play it but I easily got caught.

I remember in Grade 6, I'd run to the washroom and play Diamond for a few minutes x3.
In Science class we did nothing near the end of the year, right? So I was having a little party with my friends with popcorn and everything, and I almost left my DSi in the class room when switching classes o-o. |
I go to an all boys grammar school, and if you're not careful, your prized possession may be nabbed if you don't keep a close eye on them. For that reason, and that reason alone, I don't bring my DS into school. ^_^ And the fact that as in most places, Nintendo is not taken well among a group of Microsoft fans.

Fixed that for you. Many students in my school think that first person shooter games (on the PS3 and Xbox), such as Call of Duty, are better than all Wii games. It just pisses me off when they give such an assumption befoe trying out the good games on the Wii.

I went to watch SALT with Shadow. The movie was amazing, and confusing, a bit.

| I also have some awesome news, Mission Impossible 4 is going to be filmed in Dubai! :O |
Seriously, it's inevitable that Nintendo owns Microsoft and Sony. Just look at the number of sales and records made by Nintendo and its games, and no one will be able to argue.
However, to be honest, I'd like 2 things to be done to the Wii:
- Adding more shooter/action games on the Wii. I mean, there are many titles on it which are just too childish/crap. More games like the Metroid series are certainly welcome.
-The ability to play music and videos. Fod God's sake, why can the PS3 and Xbox 360 do it while the Wii can't?

I agree with Jad.
If they make something touch-screen next, it's time to sue. |
