Go ahead!
And, btw, yes, I actually DID wake up one morning and look at the trim on a staircase and wonder, "What's the slope of that line?" It was truly frightening.


I just joined the facebook group.

[img]http://www.sd68.k12.il.us/schools/orchard/LMC/math%20curse.jpg[/img]

Background of book:
[i]Math has never been so funny. When Mrs. Fibonacci tells her class, "You know, you can think of almost everything as a math problem," the Math Curse begins for the little girl in the story. Getting dressed, eating breakfast, waiting for the bus -- EVERYTHING becomes a math problem. How will the math curse ever be broken? By using math, of course. People who like math + People who hate math = People who will love this latest book from the team of Scieszka and Smith.[/i]

its really cute! there's even a science book to go along with it! lol

oh, I like math! it challenges me lots. ^_^ and I love how there are letters! [i] e[/i] confuses me a little (it was just introduced to me, though, and it wasn't really a proper introduction) but I like [i]i[/i] a lot.

and the Math Curse book looks funny! I like Jon Scieszka, even though his name is confusing... :huh:

Oh man that was great!

I recently dug up some of my ninth-grade papers as well. Among them was an essay I wrote for our class on Virtue studies, on how Yoda led a virtuous life, and how we should imitate him in his wisdom. I had no recollection of writing it, and could not believe the seriousness with which my ideas were presented.

I also found a note to one of my friends that was between me and Yoda, using quotes of his from the movies. I should see if I can find that again and put it on here. It was really funny.

This was my conversation with Yoda, after I walked into a desk during German class, one day. All of his lines are movie quotes, minus the first.

Yoda: Stupid, you are.
Me: No, I'm just a moron. It's different.
Yoda: No, only different in your mind, you must unlearn what you have learned.
Me: I try not to be a moron!
Yoda: Try not? Do or do not. There is no try.
Me: I think I'm just crazy. I can't control it.
Yoda: Control, control, you must learn control.
Me: I do want to learn control, like controlling my own legs, so I don't walk into a desk. I wanted to go between the desks, not through them! That hurt, and took longer, too.
Yoda: If you choose the quick and easy path, as Vader did, you will become an agent of Evil. Patience.
Me: I know that, but why is walking through a desk (or attempting to) better than walking around it? Why do I do such dumb things?
Yoda: No, no, there is no why.
Me: [as Obi Wan walks up] I hate when I do dumb things. I hate when I'm so stupid. There must be a reason!
Obi Wan: Luke, don't give into hate, that leads to the Dark Side.
Me: Ummm, my name isn't Luke, but okay.
[Leia and C3-P0 walk up]
C3-P0: The Princess-
Me: I'm the Princess! That's MY nickname!
Leia: I don't know where you get your delusions, Laser Brain!
Me: I have a bad feeling about this!
