So, since you're asking, I'm in my second observational placement. I'm observing a couple math classes at Lincoln High in Tacoma. The teacher is pretty damn innefective. She's looking to me for advice on what to do, rather than the other way around (like how it's supposed to work). Also, she's teaching the kids PEMDAS (order of operations), but ( Read more... )

So, Mat came over and we went to Fry's, who tested my old processor and it told them "no."

2) Campus is full of Freshmen like the Monolith is full of stars and space babies.
3) My brain is ( hemorrhaging )
