*snerk* Speaking of writing on tests like that... I've written in Japanese on tests before. Usually write something like, 'This is stupid, make it easier next time.'
One teacher finally started asking me what I was writing on her tests. XD;

ya that's pretty much what my latin writing on tests translates to. Stuff about how I don't know the material they want us to or how I believe the test to be a waste of time. Or try to have a one sided convo to the prof. (ie: hello, how are you? type stuff) My english teacher drew a smily face and tried to reply on the last test I did that on.

Hee! I wish my teachers would try to reply. I would be terribly amused. They keep thinking I'm writing in Chinese, though, so there's no hope that anyone will figure out what I'm saying. >.>;

You should learn to write in chinese: "The following is written in Japanese"

I haven't taken english in a long time. 3 years? Even though I should have been taking it, but that was back when I'd dropped out of school.
Reading *anything* on my tests is going to be a tough one for the examiners and teachers. I realized yesterday it's been so long since I took a written test, that my handwriting is almost as illegible as it was 10 years ago in primary school. I was doing handwriting practice in class, and my teacher just thought it was notes because he couldn't read a word of it.
Also, I had to look up 'audacity' in a dictionary but I totally agree.

- Naoise *snerk* I really should. I have a few friend who are taking Chinese who I could bug to give me the kanji for that...
- Rosuu How do you live? D: I think I would slowly wither away and die without taking English classes. Or doing some sort of independent study... My handwriting sucks even though I write all of the time, though. XD; I have to print, and still it's almost illegible.

i never really learned how to handwrite. But my printing just looks like handwriting anyhow. I tend to print but not remove pen from paper and also through in a bite of short hand and abbreviations making it illegiable to anyone but me. (even more so because I can't spell what so ever) Friends have learnt very quickly not to bother asking to see my notes. Received an award once in spanish class for having the most messiest board writing XD

that's what i thought too XD I was so proud of it. Kind of like my award in our ridiculously point less planning class. "Outstanding acheivement while reading a novel." All I did in that class was read and listen to how to speak german and spanish insults with my friend on her ipod. No joke. We were a sample class to see how the program worked and the teacher had no clue what so ever what they were supposed to be doing with us.

I dislike teachers who teach classes using technology they know nothing about.

I dislike teachers who can't read. Or say anything intlligent D: *digresses*
One of my teachers thinks a boulder is a type of wood. No lie. Welcome to Alabama, y'all. -_-

I wonder if you could get her to write a paper about it.

I should try. In the paper, I shall also have her address her inability to pronounce words and names vital to her subject.
A Psych teacher can't pronounce 'Freud'. Is that not saddening?

My teachers... don't fail? Although one of them once told us to 'get on with our work' because he was going to the staffroom to 'take a nap'. We were so offended, so we all took a nap too, on the desks.
I hate teachers who can't hold up an intelligent convo. One of my Media teachers is so opinionated it hurts. She'll give you detention if you tell her you don't like Al Pacino.
I do miss english, but I learning about things I like in classes at school tends to ruin them. Like Shakespeare. I used to love reading it, until english gcse.

My grd 12 english teacher was awesome and *loved* shakespear. If you were late he made to enter the class room in a dramatic fashion proclaiming "It is I. (insert name) the Tardy!" (read Hamlet if you don't understand). With one of my spanish teachers whenever she left the room we'd all turn off the lights hide under our desks and have a "lockdown drill." one day she came back decked out in crossing guard gear (bright orange) and a speaker phone. We just asked innocently "how'd you know what we were going to do?" One more story: Today was my last day of my greek and roman mythology class (I am sad ) and because we had our last quiz on monday our teacher was going to bring in the Rome series for us to watch but it doesn't have much about myth so instead we watched Troy. And I kid you not one of her other reasons was it had Brad Pitts butt and she figured that might be more enjoyable anyhow. It was a fantastic class.
