RN, I only wish that was the same with me Karen. haha I always leave everything to the last minute, and sometimes I think my marks would be so much better if I didn't. LOL

RN I am having a lot of pain in my ear. This has been the year of the earache for me. It's almost over, I can feel it.

RN Hermi, thank you. RN Neko, I'm like you, I need a lot of time to write a paper because I need to go over them several times before I'm happy that the simple mistakes are corrected. Then a few more to fix bigger problems.

RN I am betting that Beckie did well on her mid term exam. RN after reading Neko's tails of procrastination, I am remembering my time in college. I was just the opposite. If I had a project due, I usually did it early and sat it aside till it was due. Several times, doing it early, ended up meaning I had done extra work because something would come up and the teacher would relax the rules....lol RN I am wishing I had some of that brilliance that Karen posted about. RN I am wondering what play Beckie saw on Saturday and remember my latest favorite, well actually it is a musical...."Menopause the Musical" If you haven't seen it, I highly recommend it. I have seen it three times now.

RN, my nephew is laying on the floor behind me, kicking his feet, banging his hands and screaming his little head off in a full blown temper tantrum. I am doing my best to ignore him and keep an eye on him (don't want him to get hurt) while pretending not to.

RN Irish, he's just a tad shy of 17 months. He doesn't throw too many tantrums with me because I tend to ignore them, but ever so often I think he forgets where he is, lol.

RN, Boberg, I actually don't think I did that well. We had to memorize 40 identifications (key terms) knowin who, what, where, when, significance. She was going to pick 15 of the 40 and then we had to pick 5 out of the 15...I only knew four. However, the essay wasn't that hard...I think I did okay on that...I study so much better under pressure RN, also Boberg, it was called The Polish Joke. Hilarious

RN I'm glad I'm home, but I'm in the worst mood. One of the gals I work with (and sit near) is generally quite nice, but this afternoon she just kept singing a medley of songs to herself and driving me bonkers. I was extremely friendly when I asked her to please knock it off or at least 'lower the volume'. She said she could also jack the volume higher... but she did lower her tone a fraction, and just kept it up, even though I mentioned I had the headache from hell. Sometimes I just don't understand people. My nerves were shot from this. I put on my headset and found some mellow music on Youtube to drown her out. Since we work with our headsets I don't think she knew that's what I was doing. But it frosts me that all I wanted was peace and quiet and had to actually turn to youtube to get some. Geez. Yesterday she came in from the dentist, in pain, and was really silent and kept to herself, and the other gal and I were respectfully quiet for her sake... But when the tables are turned, I guess I don't count.

RN, Mame, in the world we live in, it's not that you DON'T count, it's just that SHE counts more, dontcha know? And I'm a fan of fighting fire with fire... but I can be a vindictive little <mod myself> at times, LOL.

RN Karen & Irish, I have to admit I do have my (creative) vengeful moments. They are just few and far between, as it's really not my nature. See this thread for a description of one of my FINER moments: click here for threadWednesday, October 17, 2007 - 12:16 pm

RN: What the heck is with these EMO kids lately? I think it's funny that they think they are individuals, non conformists, heh. Just like every other EMO kid in the world.

Awww..<RN pets the emo kids> Plus some people are just drawn to the darker side of life. It's just part of their nature. I'm just a grown-up emo kid myself.

RN Caleb just handed me a social studies quiz and a social studies test, got a 91 on one and a 100 on the other. Two weeks ago the little stinker was playing off an F on a social studies test like it was a hard subject for him. Told him I'd help him study (was even all excited about it cuz they're doing fun stuff this year!) and quiz him but never saw a book, homework or heard about a test. And has the nerve to tell me he didn't study for these! As someone who had to study constantly to get passing grades, it totally ticks me off that he can get A's on tests without cracking books open as he's shown us again and again, yet will get F's cuz he just doesn't care.

RN I hear ya, War. I had one kid who was quite capable of the honor roll, but after making it one time he came home griping that the honor roll kids got perks over the other kids. He was a fair and honest kid who didn't think that was right, and swore he wasn't gonna do it ever again! So from then on he always had at least one B. He also got disgusted when they tried to get him to sign an agreement to never do drugs. Said he never intended to, and it was not their right to force him to sign a useless piece of paper over it. Sometimes a kid stands up to the hype and withstands the backlash for it. He turned out to be an honorable man, too, living up to his word.

RN, my paper's due tomorrow, and I could just care less. I'm such a bad student. I'm more of a hands on learner, so writing papers is TORMENT for me.

RN Gracie, I could handle the almost honor roll, lol! Caleb's thing is that he knows he is smart. And he knows we know he is. And he knows his teachers know it too. So why should he have to work when we all know (he's actually told us this!) Drives me nuts.

RN Neko, I wish I could write it for you. I used to love writing papers and would do them for the kids good at math so they would do my math which I was bad at. LOL
